PTC v62 Release Thread

Thanks everyone for all your feedback on our previous builds, several bugs were identified in PTC v60 and the solutions for some have shipped, while others are on the way!

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v62 is starting to roll out soon for Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro, and Meta Quest 3. 

If you're seeing an issue or bug after updating to PTC v62 jump on over to our Get Help board and search for any existing thread, if you don't find one, make a new thread. Please add the tag "PTC v62" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v62 issues too.

It's best if you can post each bug you spot in its own thread, to keep track of individual issues separately.

Share your impressions and let us know if you see any issues. Please make sure to also send in bug reports along with posting on the forums if you notice anything going wrong. 

We know it's tough when you run into a problem on a PTC build and want to thank you all again for testing out PTC and sharing your feedback! This feedback is extremely helpful to our engineering teams. We appreciate your interest and persistence in testing out the core functionality of software as we develop!

    Since v62 (quest 3) I keep getting a warning that there is moisture or debris in my charging port and it will no longer charge. My port is fine, my cable is fine, my charger is fine. I charge while playing. Going back to v60 until they get that straightened out or give us a way to disable it. Sorry if someone has already mentioned this. No way to search within the thread...
    Disregard. It was a USB-c extension cable that I forgot we in the chain.     😛
    Re-edit: It IS v62. Happened again with another cable. Anytime there is any kind of extension cable it throws up this warning. Good thing is it that you can click "OK" and will continue to charge but it's irritating especially in the middle of a PC VR session. How do I disable this warning?

      For me, the WLAN Connection is much more stable, i had no router problem, but all feels smoother as before. 👍

        Yes, I have noticed if I watch the 6e connection speed for a few seconds it unused to fluctuate quite a lot, now it seems stable and invariably the TX and RX values are the same.

          Release notes for PTC v62?  Or have to wait till formal release of v62 for release notes?

            I agree with add all the posts about release notes... There should be a place for PTC'ers to go, where they can see what's changed, fixed, added, removed, etc.

              I agree. At least let us know what new or changed features exist so we can check them out.

                  Hello, the Meta link App 62.0.0.174.346 does not detect the new graphics card "Nvidia RTX 4070 Super" as a minimum specification for VR.

                  Meta Link app is more-or-less deprecated.  You don't need to install it for PCVR with Steam Link.

                  Looks like v62 has wifi improvements.  Or whatever they did Steam Link is working much better.

                  I have a Wifi 7 router.  Next on the list, waiting for 320 mhz channel bandwidth support.

                    v62 has a big problem with USB port sensor (found the very same issue on my Q3 and the one of my wife)... when used with an extension cable (even if it is a quality cable) from time to time star showing the debris-water warning message. Of course there is no debris or water, just a nasty software false alarm.
