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!!!

      Well I heard back from Oculus Tech support again finally and they did state this fact-  will see if any of their suggestions work - if not then you can see what their plan is below

      This is a bug that has a fix rolling out next week. For the time being these are the debugging steps that have been shown to work. Can you give them a shot and let us know if they work

      They have fixed it now, well for me at least. 

       

      I went to my phone app after reinstalling the app and resetting the device. It showed me an option called developer mode, select that and turn it on.

      ok i will try that..

      Only what did you do by the developers mode? Did you ony set the sms function?

      Or also the payment option?

       

      And  can you share what you see in your app?

      I have had my account verified for almost 2 years now... I do see the button to enable it but the button just takes me to a page telling me to become a developer.
