Question

Android Recovery

We have the Meta Quest 3S, It says Android Recovery"can't load android system your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message to Factory data reset and erase all data stored on this device. Somehow it is not backed up and we have a lot of data apps and money invested that will be lost. Is there a solution ? Thank you

    Hey ChickenNuggetMaster11, 

    We know this isn't an ideal situation and we can appreciate your concern with factory resetting. Before you try that last-resort option, we'd suggest using our Software Update Tool to force an update onto your headset first!

    Please make sure your headset is fully charged before you use the tool. If that doesn't work, your only option may be to factory reset as prompted. Naglis is right, though - all of your purchased apps are tied to your account, so you won't lose those! However, certain apps may have automatically backed up your progress. You can find out what apps are supported by Cloud Backup here. 

    If you have any other questions, you can always DM us.
