I paired them to my kitchen Echo, then to a dot so I could easily bring them with me to work to let people play with. When I got home and tried to pair them back to the Echo, it would see the buttons but fail to re-add them.

You have to go into Bluetooth and choose "forget device" before you can re-add them and make them show up as connected buttons. Hopefully this helps somebody and eliminates some frustration.

The Pure VR Bundle ($4.99) comes with a 20% off coupon code in addition to the 10 games in the bundle.

That coupon is good on anything on this page, and that includes Batman VR, already being offered for 20% off. Stacking the coupon on the existing 20% makes it $12.79, plus $5 for the other games/coupon.

In the end it comes down to how many of the bundle games you have/want, but it was worth it for me.

We sent her broken round back and pebble has had it for a week. They gave us a tracking number for the replacement but it hasn't shown any activity.

We've been trying for several days to get a response from pebble, but gotten nowhere. Now I see why.

If I had the old watch I'd just fix it myself now (bezel came unglued), but now they have the old watch and we've got nothing.

It was working a day or two ago, so I don't know what happened for them to just "forget" about the site. Switching to google DNS resolved the problem. If you're on comcast and unable to access the frontier forums, switch to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for your DNS to get it working again.

r/GearVR•

My GearVR came today via Fedex, so this should work as long as they are sending them all the same method.

  • Go to fedex and track by reference.

  • Put your order number in from the backordered email, along with country, postal code, and shipping date. I estimated 12/25 for mine since that's when I got the last backordered email, and it was close enough.

  • Enjoy checking your shipping progress (example).

r/GearVR•

I ordered a GearVR with the Samsung Pay credit to go with my developer edition. I'd gotten a fresh backorder email on the 25th, and then it just showed up on my doorstep this morning.

Maybe that last email was really a shipping notice that was messed up? Hopefully this wasn't just a fluke for me and a bunch of other people get them today too.
