Question

CPU and GPU always at max level since v85

Hi everyone,

After updating my Meta Quest to v85, I noticed that both CPU and GPU are constantly locked at maximum levels, even while staying idle in the system menu.

I tried the following ADB commands:

adb shell setprop debug.oculus.adaclocks.force 0 adb shell setprop debug.oculus.cpuLevel 3 adb shell setprop debug.oculus.gpuLevel 3

but the issue still persists.

What is strange is that the same behavior also happens on a freshly installed Meta Quest with no apps or custom modifications.

I’m monitoring CPU and GPU levels using OVR Metrics Tool.

Has anyone else experienced this issue after v85?
Any suggestions or possible fixes would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
