Startup issues with Q3/QPro v85 Final

Since the latest v85 final (non-PTC) on both my Q3 and QPro headsets (and meta-link pc app) neither headset starts up properly.  It seems to startup ok but then goes to a black screen (did the same after the update/restart btw).  To get it to startup I need to press the power button once (get a sleep mode beep), then press it again, and then it starts up fine and seems to work well with everything.

Also, my Q3 Elite battery strap still does not charge its battery and headset battery properly.  I don't get any charge lights on the headset and it only seems to charge the headset battery to 75-80%.  

I have files bug reports on all these issues.  Hopefully Meta will eventually provide fixes.  Otherwise, all my standalone and PCVR with Link and Air Link seem to work fine (no performance or bitrate limitations as reported by a few users).  Cheers.

    I've never had any charging issues with my Elite battery strap on my Q3, which I've owned for 6-7 months, it always charges to 100% (provided the headset is either off or on standby). The only point of note is that I must connect the power cable to it while the headset is powered off (and then switch on the headset) or it won't charge the elite battery at all. I'm on v85. It sounds like there might be a problem with your Elite strap battery itself.

    While the headset is in use, with the Elite strap battery connected and plugged in to the wall charger simultaneously, then, yes, the Elite battery stays at about 75-80% because it is feeding power to the headset battery. If you disconnect the Elite strap from the headset and charge the Elite battery standalone, does it still only charge to 80%?
