Developer Mode Issues Update
Hello everyone,
Thank you all for your reports and your patience on this issue! In regards to developers being unable to enable Developer Mode in the Oculus app, a new update has been pushed to fix the issue. Please update your Oculus app to the latest version (as of the date of this post) and try enabling Developer Mode once more.
Update 11/8: The fix pushed to the latest App Update does not seem to have fixed the issue for all developers. At this time we are re-opening the issue and will update this post as well as this forum thread with any relevant details.
In the meantime, many of our awesome developers have shared that verifying using a Credit Card allowed the Developer Mode option to appear.
Update 11/15: We have received reports that this issue has been fixed for most developers experiencing this issue. Please log out and log back into your Oculus app and try enabling Developer Mode once more. If you still experience the same issue, please reach out to our team at https://developer.oculus.com/support (click "Contact Us") and we'll dive deeper.

I can't update my oculus app, so I still can't turn on developers mode.

is there a proposed date for the solution? I still have the same problem and I already did everything, I even added a payment method, the cell phone, update everything to the latest and the developer mode still does not appear.

I don't know if this will help, but I have the 135.0.0.12.115 version of the Oculus app, dated November 2nd, and still have the issue. This matches that latest version listed on the Google Play Store website so the new version hasn't changed anything related to the bug.

This is ridiculous guys, do away with the need to have a verified organization and put the button back.

I managed to get dev mode enabled on my Quest 2. It seems like if you already have a credit card tied to your account and you cannot enable dev mode, then you will need to remove that card and add it back in order for it to show up.

Didn't read your message fully. 😅

This afternoon I got my new debit card in the mail and added it to my account for verification on top of my phone number. Developer mode immediately became available in the oculus app, so this isn't really a bug, but a change in verification. I have both SMS and a card added.
Try adding your card even if your account is verified. Worked for me.
