I’ve not used my quest in a while now it won’t work blowing out air.

I’ve not used my quest 3 in about a year give or take and i’ve just recently wanted to start playing on it again so i’ve let it charge all of last night up until about 1 hour ago but nothing is happening when i press the power button except from air blowing out the front of the quest and when I plug my charger in a red light flashes and then goes off after like 2 seconds. I’m really confused and would like some help please and thank you.🙏

    If the fan is blowing fast and loud then your quest is in EDL mode (emergency download mode). There is no way to fix it as only Meta can do restores to headsets in this condition. The online Meta Quest Software Updater tool will not work. ADB restores will not work. Only Meta has the required firehose file. Basically, you are SOL.
