How to debug(play) Unity 5 for Gear VR without having it transferred to the phone?

I made things in Unity 5 for Gear VR.

When I connect Galaxy S6 and on Unity, do

 File -> Build and Run

The phone tells me to connect the phone with Gear VR, and after doing that everything works fine.

But when i press Play from Unity, Unity itself crashes and closes itself.

So i have to download and debug on the phone everytime i want to debug, which takes so much time.

So there any easy way of debugging unity for gear vr on mac?

you might not be able to debug using Unity (like Unity profiler, etc), but you can use Android studio or adb to debug it, so everytime you do Debug.Log and its family, they will be printed into the log just filter it with Unity keyword.

Since using cable is unfeasible for GearVR, you need to use adb with TCP/IP i.e. using wireless. There are a lot of articles on how to use adb wifi, for example here

Hope this helps
