PTC v63 Release Thread

Thanks everyone for all your feedback on our previous builds, several bugs were identified in PTC v62 and the solutions for some have shipped, while others are on the way!

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v63 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 v63 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 v63" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v63 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!

I have tried sideload to downgrade to v60 1st released but I got no success. It said the installed was completed, after an automatic reboot, I looked at the software version, and still saying v63.

I have finally experienced V63 and the changes to Scoped Storage have gone too far.  /Android/Data and all folders underneath are locked away to protect privacy.  There are going to be a lot of angry Bonelab and Blade & Sorcery modders whenever this goes live.  If a user wants to grant an app access to a folder on their own device, let them...

jollyjesus i feel you. But can we please try to only add new information to the thread? It feels more like scrolling through your personal blog than a thread for a ptc version. I would also suggest for you to not enroll in ptc if the use of the headset is critical to you. Of course most of the time things don't break in an update. But sometimes they do and you need to be willing to live with that. That being said, it's silly that meta don't allow downgrades from ptc firmware to latest stable release. Seems more like an oversight than a calculated move. I haven't had any issues on v63 so far, using both controllers and hand tracking, using daylight and using ceiling led spots at night. I haven't tried PCVR though.

KnizzleHizzle I'm using the page for the purpose of the page thank you..

I had no clue it would upset you . 

That's the first time I've left an image to show what the passthrough issues I am also having look like..

I haven't really even talked about yet .. 

Maybe someone can relate ? 

I don't know till I post it right ? 

It's not critical I just renders my device useless so I posted here it gets as much information I can .. 

I thought that's what the page was for ..

I'm not saying don't write or post. But try to go critically through your own posts and the sheer amount of them and then tell me uøyou still think all of it is relevant. Not to.mention the amount of negativity for a situation that you signed up for, namely testing beta software that might break features. 

 

I'm not the first one to.mention this to you, I'm not trying to offend you but there's a massive difference in:

1) Relaying relevant errors and experiences

2) Using the main thread as a personal support hotline

3) Posting constructivw feedback on the PTC

4) Complaining with actual information that is helpful. 

 

Now, you've done all of those, and it's truly appreciated. But just try to tone it down so that this is a place for everyone and not just you.

Okay, if all you have in your life is this thread and insulting other people then go for it. You're 35 posts out of a 100 post thread. And it's not your thread. If that fine for you then I'm afraid your unable to take both criticism AND lack the ability to understand that everything is not about you. 

Thank you for at least clarifying that my time is wasted in trying to put any form of logic or respect for other in you.
