So i am trying to get the Meta Quest 3 initial setup completed. The device is connected to the Meta Horizons app, but on the headset it will only display the "Finish Setup in Meta Quest Mobile App" dialog. Am i missing something? I have done several factory resets and let it update to no avail. Im not seeing any notification or prompts in the app either. Tried logging out/reinstalling the app as well.

the pairing is fine. i can see the device on the app, literally just the dialog on the headset saying i need to go to the app to review things. step one from that post isnt possible for me, as there is no settings available on the headset, other than the safe-boot (power button + volume down). one moment and ill see if i can figure out how to get a screenshot or picture

      Our second Q3 my daughter got for xmas appeared to get stuck at this stage, but then I realized it was downloading an update (a download bar could be seen at the top of the message in the headset) and I had to wait about 5 minutes for the update to install, then we were able to continue with the pairing and setting up.
