For a while you should not enable VR support since Unity has no native support for Cardboard yet, although it was announced on Vision Summit 2016 for future versions.

By now, you should only use the Unity package with the appropriated prefabs for Google Cardboard available at https://developers.google.com/vr/unity/download.

You dont need to check Virtual Reality Supported to make an app for Google Cardboard. Make sure that you download the Google VR SDK for Unity and bring it in your assets folder in your project. Then just search for GVR Main in your assets folder and bring that into your project scene and you are good to go. Also you may not need the default camera in the scene as well. Just create your scene and your build is automatically supported for Google Cardboard. VR Supported is largely for computer dependent devices like the Oculus Rift and not apps that you run on your mobile phones.
