Dark Screen even after factory reset

Oculus Quest 2. When it's turned on, it shows the infinity logo then 3 dots then goes black. After a factory reset, it does the same thing. On the About screen when factory resetting it says state: Locked?

Hey there @eezZzee! It seems like you're experiencing some trouble with a black screen after resetting your Quest 2. Did you make sure to fully charge your headset? We recommend charging it for at least 2 hours and then attempting to turn it on again. Another option is to perform a hard reboot. 

 

  • Simply hold down the power button and volume down button for 30 seconds until you hear the boot-up sound. 
  • If you don't hear the sound, try holding the power and volume (-) buttons simultaneously until the boot screen appears on your headset. 
  • From there, use the volume buttons to select "Boot Device" and press the power button. 
  • Finally, use the volume buttons to highlight "Yes" and press the power button. 

 

Let us know if any of these solutions work for you!

Hard rebooting doesn't work on mine, it's brand new but it's just stays on black screen

Hey @A55bella2002! Thanks for letting us know that a hard reboot didn't help with fixing your display. No worries; we'd love to provide some more troubleshooting steps that may help fix your display from being on a black screen! Have you tried a factory reset already? If not, please try the following steps listed below:

 

To perform a factory reset using the headset:

  1. Turn off your headset.
  2. Hold the power and volume (-) buttons on your headset down simultaneously until the boot screen loads on your headset.
  3. Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Factory Reset and press the power button.
  4. Use the volume buttons on your headset to highlight Yes and press the power button.

We look forward to hearing back from you!

Hiya, yeah I've already tried factory resetting but absolutely nothing shows up. When I cast it to my phone it shows that there is meant to be something there but its just completely black in the headset.

I do that and nothing shows up on the screen. Nothing to click on or select or anything.
