Hello, since the most recent update on my quest 3, my INIU link cable won't charge the headset with its dedicated usb C port for a charger. It worked just fine around 8 days ago, however, after updatibg my headset multiple times it seems to stop working.

Looks like me and you have the same problem, im currently waiting for a syntech cable to come in to try out that also has a charging port built in to the cable. Until then i have a kiwi cable that works but alas now im time limited due to the lack of charging. 

 I'm telling you right now, when the steam frame drops, ditch meta and never look back. Meta is trying to find ways to make it to where you can only use the link cable they sell, just like a while back they broke compatibility between metalink and steam vr clients to force people to use their horrendous link software and the kicker is that malwarebyte's had meta's software flagged as malware and wouldn't let it install on my pc.

Fix: Settings > System > Power > "Charge while connected" = ON

LOL. No such setting exists 😉. Stop spamming with fake solutions. OP's post is 2 months old!

@steve_40 Looking at the style of GhulamSadique10​ 's  posts I think he might be the same guy who got banned for doing the same thing recently.  He had a few profiles with "sheik.......  in his handle. Pattern is exactly the same. I've reported him anyway, he's already offered a few fake solutions.

I think he's just 'badge' farming 🤷‍♂️. He made a lot of posts every ~7 minutes until the spam blocker kicked in.
