I'm currently trying to get an Aframe project running in a React Native Webview and running into errors reminiscent of the ones discussed here: https://github.com/borismus/webvr-boilerplate/issues/111

I've tried this in three separate emulated devices (Nexus 5, Nexus 6P and Galaxy S6 all running Android 6.0) and each of them produce the following error stack:

The webvr polyfill uses a device database to determine the resolution that the polyfilled version of the getEyeParamers will return. The navigator.userAgent string must contain the device model name that matches the one in the database. In the case of a nexus 5 is Nexus 5 (https://github.com/borismus/webvr-polyfill/blob/master/src/dpdb/dpdb-cache.js#L182) It looks it's a problem with the polyfill database or your emulator not containing the correct device model name for those devices. There's nothing that we can do on the a-frame side.
