GearVR while rooted?

It seems that ever since I rooted my S7, I haven't been able to download the Gear VR software. I keep getting a "Network error occurred. Try again later." message. I've tried re-enabling all of the processes that I've frozen, but no luck.

I've read online that Gear VR doesn't really like rooted device, but some people have it working with root.

Any suggestions on what to do? I've read that it may work if you install Gear VR software before rooting the device, but that would most likely mean a factory reset to refresh the device and I was hoping to avoid that. Any ideas?

Thanks so much!

Un-rooting stock rom would make Gearvr work again ?

I used to have a rooted Lollipop stock rom and then got the gearvr and it didnt work until I re-flashed the un-rooted firmware again , this caused me to reinstall everything from scratch , now a friend suggested i should try un-rooting option found in KingUser or SuperUser whenever I needed to use Gearvr (untested , just a thought).

so anybody tried this ?

I just dont want to have to reinstall everything once more , its pretty much annoying :)

Thanks in advance :)
