PTC v74 Release Thread

Hey Everyone,

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v74 started to roll out today 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 v74:

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 v74" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v74 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. Please make sure to also send in bug reports along with posting on the forums if you notice anything going wrong.

Share your impressions in the comments below and let us know if you see any issues.

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 hope the charging issue is sorted promptly as it is annoying.

        It seems like there are a pile of bugs and issues, not sure how they came to the decision to make a public release version of v74.

        I'm staying @ v72 until they get it sorted out. I still can't confirm that the PCVR issues have been sorted yet.

            Hi so i don't really know where else to post this but i think one of the updates got my quest 2 stuck in a boot loop? Like I've tried doing everything recommended: sideloading update, factory reset, sitting and letting ot charge for a few hours and nothing is working. I'm unsure if the warranty has expired but I'm going to ask my brother who got it if the warranty is still in effect if so that could help. I've seen people elsewhere talk about it being a software issue? I had been playing just fine a few weeks ago and then i got home one day and bam stuck in a boot loop.

            It is best to contact meta support, when I had problems with a voucher they helped me immediately,

            I got a non-ptc v74 update on my Q3 earlier today (still on v72 with my QPro).  Only problem I found with my Q3 was that both Link and Air Link were stuck on 72Hz refresh rate, no matter what I set it to.  The solution for me was to go into the meta link pc app beta tab and enroll in the meta link beta program v74.  After this everything worked fine.  Fortunately my QPro seems to work fine with this beta.  I have filed a bug report on this.

            I have an update listed as available on my Quest 3. v74 standard release (I dropped from the PTC).

            I currently have all the update switches turned off and it hasn't updated itself yet (it is dated as install on the 6th). So I am hoping I stay at v72. 

            I am worried it is going to push through and I am going to lose my PCVR and have all of the bugs I have been reading about.

            stefan.flegel  don't be too sad, right now, it won't help you....  it's not working properly.

            Removed apps are bouncing back to the library after a few seconds.

            I sent a bug report.
