v.77 PTC Release Thread

Hey Everyone,

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v77 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 v77:

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 v77" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v77 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!

      Still waiting for a fix for the broken Wi-Fi download speed on Quest Pro!  Still broken on latest version v77.1026 Build 5080163.8490.340 that just came out today...

        This is an interesting development. Did the last updated literally break it? 

        I have the same issue, they offered me USD 10 store credits.

        Hey, got an update to v77.1026 in retail channel... build 5097426.8860.520 (Q3).
        But no information about that? No Blog, no Release-Notes? Nothing?

        Sorry Dev Team from Meta... your work got really, really bad.

        By that, also got another micro-update to the desktop app - third time!
        No version change, nothing about it - I'll see if (Air-)Link was destroyed again...

        What's up with you guys?

          OK, (Air-)Link is rock stable now - that one works!
          But what about that fancy AppPicker everyone is talking about?
          This one look and feels as before... and I forgot: the controller got an update also.

          TomCgcmfc OK, now I know, what you've ment with "bottom panel screen options".
          Or, as I'd call it: "the X below" 🤣 Comes with first restart, which takes very long.

            Buetigame  I haven't seen non-PTC v77 yet but I did get a v76.1026 update yesterday on my QPro.  I still don't see the X-below panel thing.  Also, tested out with Air Link using h.264 and still see the ~200mbps bitrate limit.  Back to Link with 900mbps max dynamic bitrate and this results in ~750mbps, which still works great, for me anyway.  Cheers.

              Why can I no longer set my refresh rate to 60?

              567ne567neb.2025  72Hz has been the lowest refresh rate with meta-link pc app for as long as I can remember.  Sounds like more Reddit kiddie repost garbage imho.

                TomCgcmfc Just for you 😉 Got my Quest2 out the box and look for updates.
                It's v77.1026 but with different buid 5158488.8460.150 of course...
                (different sizes also 1.38GB vs. 1.17GB and no controller updates)

                Same procedure with Q2: after update no changes, after first off/on "the X below" 😉
                So it seems QPro is the only one, not getteing the new update for now.

                Choleni that's crazy... if you look at US or german "Help" site... no v77.
                But if you look at the UK Release-Notes it's there... Thx mate!

                 

                @NewNavigator:
                "Navigator will begin rolling out as a limited test to some people on our Public Test Channel (PTC) with v77 and is expected to roll out gradually to all users over the coming months. This is just the beginning of a broader evolution of Horizon OS. We’ve got much more planned for the future of spatial computing."

                @Quest1:
                Powered on my pretty old Quest1 (still on v50 of course) and connected it to the PC (Air-Link).
                And what schould I say? It works... and these really deep blacks... I love it.
                Shutted it down really quick before I get used to it 😍
