PTC v68 Release Thread

Thanks everyone for all your feedback on our previous builds, several bugs were identified in PTC v67 and the solutions for some have shipped, while others are on the way!

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v68 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 v68:


1) For issues: Go to our Get Help board and search for any existing thread on the issue, if you don't find one, make a new thread. Please add the tag "PTC v68" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v68 issues too.

2) For bugs: If you come across a bug, please post each one you spot in its own thread, to keep track of individual issues separately.

Share your impressions in the comments below 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!

    A few times I've had to hold power button for like 15-20sec for the Meta logo to pop up and power on headset. This started after PTC v68. It doesn't happen always. Quest 3 512gb.

      How do I remove that boundary if I plan on using passthrough to go from living to kitchen and so on?  No matter what I try I'm still be forced to set a boundary.  I'm on PTC V68.

      I am also experiencing some of the same problems listed above.
      1) This is an issue where the controller completely disconnects from the device when the controller is not moved for a certain period of time, such as while watching a video. In this case, there is no solution other than removing and reinserting the battery or pressing the power button to reboot the device.
      2) When turning on the device, you have to press the power button for about 15 seconds to turn it on. This phenomenon has been occurring since the beginning of v68, and for the past few days, it has returned to normal, such as turning on by pressing the button for 4-5 seconds, but it has started happening again since yesterday. Since there have been no additional updates in the meantime, it is unclear what rule is causing this.

        I and having the power light issue staying on afterwards

        It was Orange when unplugged it and it stayed on oange and I had to hold it in about 20 seconds to turn it on.

        Sometimes it seems like i have to hold the power button a long time to get it to come on..

        The pointer cursor disappears sometimes..

        And the controllers randomly drop

          Dear Meta,

           

          Thank you - bug report please.

          For v68 PTC PC application - OpenXR applications do not engage VR and open flat. Unchecking PTC on PC and rolling back to v67 fixes it.

          Thank you.
          Respectfully

            Can't confirm the maxstep report, v68 PTC - Beat Saber starts just fine in Meta Quest Link OpenXR environment. Whatever issue maxstep experiences is not related to v68 - or is not as simple as that.

            Cool, but maybe give access back to the Android file so we can have our fun?

            Hello

             

            Good version with several new features, but I notice a real problem with scanning the room. The floor level is consistently 50 cm below the actual level, requiring manual adjustment with the controller. Similarly, I have to redraw the room boundaries.
