    Hi,

    I tried to update my Quest2 to v38 but it says no available updates, I'm in Europe. is the update limited to certain regions?

    ProEagle  All updates are rolled out.  I’m not sure it matters where you live.  I sometimes get them pretty quickly and sometimes they take 2-3 weeks.

      well done oculus. not only are you persistent in crappy updates but you exceed the standards in the level of incompetence oculus put out in the form of updates for the os. heres a thought. a multi billion dollar company funds your ego. why not listen to the public beta testers on the issues. most stamped on the shell env crashing. and even the guardian service crashing after the v38 update yet even in the global live version its still happening..... seriously have some actual passion for the work you do. its beyond a joke. every **bleep** update has caused massive performance hits or bugged ui and services....  since v21. im tempted to make it so my device never updates automatically. just so i dont have to put up with the trashy updates you guys spew out like vomit

        When does this roll out to Northern-Europe?

        I have been refreshing my Quest 2 for some time, as what been reading of the performance improvement on VR supported games with ASW. Get always "no update available"

        Really, no download anywhere to update manually?

          "Controller low battery" warning completely breaks Oculus Link - it's stuttering, pixelated and stretched. Until the warning popped I was playing for over an hour with no issues over Wi-Fi

            Was just taking a look at Oculus TV.

            3D flat content is showing side by side video rather than actual 3D.

            LameDuckWarrior  I just tried this and Oculus TV seems to work fine for me with my Q2.  I just got an Oculus TV update earlier today so maybe this helped?  Cheers.

            Yes, woke up this AM and it works.

            Actually could kick myself.

            Should have said Win 11 wasn't working.
