Developer Mode is missing!
OMG! this morning, I turned ON my quest2 and schokingly found that my custom apps are gone under unknown sources. Then I look into my ouclus companion app and figured out that the developer mode is also missing! can't connect the headset to pc via adb. Not even list out my device under "adb devices" command. Need a fix! help me out!!!

Same here. Even a factory reset didn't solve it.

Same here. Was fine Friday. This morning developer mode is shown as checked in the onboard Oculus settings, but no unknown sources list.

Did some digging. Looks like they sent out an email forecasting this. Basically, it says that if you don't "verify" your dev account by Oct 21, your device will be locked out of developer mode. Verification consists of either linking a credit card to your account or setting up SMS 2-factor. Verify here: https://developer.oculus.com/manage/verify
I have done so. But have yet to see any change on the device. - giptiboHonored Guest

I cannot see more options to even turn on developer mode as a option? There is no more settings option?

I have created a organization - put in my phone number - cc, and yet the developer or more options does not appear?

My dev mode came back today. Disappeared on Friday, only phone number verified.

same issue here... did you insert only your phone number (no credit card data) and wait until today, monday, to see again developer mode option and "unknown sources" on quest headset?

what did you have to do to get it back? how many days did it take? Ive verified my phone number but still nothing :'(

Figured out how to fix it guys, download oculus developer hub make sure your account is verified, then connect your quest 2 and it gives you an option to enable developer mode but you need to have a pc, mac or windows works.

I downloaded it - I have an organization made- headset works - and NO option for developer
- sully.lambExplorer
did you verify your account with phone number?
