PTC v71 Release Thread

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v71 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 v71:


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 v71" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v71 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!

    DOes QUest 3 work for any sim racing games, or are they all completely unplayable now due to massively reduced frame rates?

    Someone mentioned why we need sleep mode option on the shutdown menu. It just a better way to know that you feel more secure and give us another alternative for it to go to sleep. Since Meta introduced this new "Sensor Lock" article when V69 was released. Keeping our privacy safe. https://www.meta.com/blog/quest/new-safety-privacy-features-mr-headset-family-friendly/

    It would be nice if the fan would run normally again. At the moment the Quest is unbearable with this noise level.

    Please make sure to keep PTC enable if your on it. There has been about 3 or 4 updates on it from having it enabled. But if your disabled it, no update will go through

    PTC is enabled. Resident Evil 4 doesn't work well. BeatSaber may have stopped showing triangular artifacts, or does so periodically.
