    V40 is not out official, it´s PTC, but PTC is full, so, there are other ways to get it...

      PTC 40

      When room lights are extinguished, head tracking is disabled and both controller pointers are not aligned properly.  If this is in response to any of my "Room Lights Out" comments, it's not at all what I suggested, noted, whined about for the last 5 PTC updates 🙄

      I've been able to load v40 on my Quest 2 and it does re-enable the 120 Hz option!  Thank you!

       

      However, the Oculus app for Windows only shows 72 Hz still.  Does that app need to be updated too?

      Go to the oculus app - settings - beta - restart oculus. Should fix it.

      Thanks -- However, I've already enabled Beta on the desktop app and restarted it but it still only shows 72 Hz.

       

      Can you confirm the desktop app version for the PTC/beta?

      Weird it worked with me only after i restarted the headset the option for 90hz etc all showed up. Have you checked the headset itself if it got updated correctly and on v40?

      Oculus App Version 40.0.0.82.333

      Hey guys! I found a fix for Stuck @ 72 Hz bug! Fix by force updating to v40 from Public Test Channel. I'm so happy about this, now I can start playing my Quest 2 again! https://youtu.be/NHiJa1dV3FY. Sorry about the link Oculus

        Can confirm that after following this video that also my refresh rate settings have finally returned. Do make sure to restart the oculus app on your pc to see the settings change.

        After updated to V40 on my Quest 2, when I turn off the headset tracking setting. The 3DOF mode is completely unusable. (V39 and early are work fine)

         

        EDITED :

        This issue also posted in support section, and come with the video. For more detail, you can view it on here.

          I had to restart the Oculus VR Runtime service as well but then the 120 Hz showed in the app as well as on the standalone unit.  Thanks everybody!

          I was really hoping the MX keyboard tracking would automatically include Logi Craft since it is an extremely similar keyboard. While it does indeed superimpose the keyboard layout, it always shifted an inch to the right.

          Is there any way CRAFT will be supported in the future?

            After installing the v40, I'm not able to grab or interact with things in my home environment, and when playing games like WOW or Halo Infinite , my oculus quest 2 starts lagging and getting a lot of distortion, it has a lot of bit rate lost, with V39 I was able to play all time Halo without any interference and now is impossible to play PC games when contracted to the PC.

              V40 on PC *and* Quest 2 fixes 72hz bug and Windows 11 performance is now stable without console window having to be open and in focus. It's not perfect as there is the occasional compositor frame drop but it finally works.
