PTC v72 Release Thread

Hey Everyone,

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v72 is starting to roll out soon for Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro, Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 3S.

If you're seeing an issue or bug after updating to PTC v72:

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 v72" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v72 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!

    This has been one of the longest waits between PTC releases in a long time! Not surprised really considering the total **bleep** show this last one was..!! Well Us people in the this PTC did shout and scream and jump up and down and send lot and lots of messages about it too them and as per normal they completely ignored the lot of us as if we where talking **bleep**!! Hell what do we know eh ? we only do this for the love of it any way ! ? We enjoy have faulty equipment and stressing ourselves out ! Hey Meta Try listening next time!!!! Nar won't read this either!?!   That's the real problem with the world today! the power is in Our hands yet we don't use it ! because we won't stand together and they know it and they do everything in there power to stop us from standing together because if we did they know the game would be over!

    I got 2x new v72 updates today (non-ptc, both ~1.3Gb downloads). 

    QPro build 5054528.12560.330.  Included Pro controllers updates.

    Q3 build 5047332.16210.510.  Included firmware (green progress bar) and Q3 controllers updates.

    All seems to be working fine; standalone, PCVR wired with Link and wireless with Air Link.

    Can't say I noticed any differences.  My QPro is still on the old UI (like v69).

    I haven't tried my Q2 yet because I don't use it much anymore and it's connected with Link on my home office laptop (Alienware 17r4 with gtx1060 6 Gb and 32Gb 2400 ram).  If get time I'll try this later and report back.  Cheers.

      TomCgcmfc confirming...

      Q2: Build 5127210.8540.150 to 12510 - second update so far (no changes seen)
      Q3: Build 5047332.12760.510 to 16210 - third of v72 with controller updates

      Both with a big update package (1.3GB, not precisely sure with Q2) and firmware upate while booting. 
      Everything works as good as before... like a charm and with new UI ðŸ˜‰

        V72 is now out of PTC. I was able to rolled out without V71 downloading.  We will be getting PTC V74 anytime soon by someone told Luna.

        why did u say v74 and not v73? Are they skipping?

        TruFoox  Meta often skips version numbers.  No big deal and nothing to worry about imho.

        Buetigame  I checked my basically retired ~4yo Q2 and it updated from V71 to v72 today.  Same build that you already noted.  Seems to be working fine.  Cheers.

          I'm taking a guess that PTC V74 will be releasing in the beginning of next week
