Has anyone encountered an error when after trying to link the oculus quest 2 HMD through a META account? I get a message to enter a code in meta.com\device but it gives the error.
I performed the whole registration process in the meta website, it logs in fine in the oculus app in desktop/mobile, but in the HMD it asks me to enter a code generated from the website (meta,com\device), and when I enter it - it gives an "account linked" message in website and HMD and right after that I get a message"an error occurred"
I am connected with a link cable.
here's a recording of what happens:
*Edit:
eventually after months of back and forth emails with meta support which was kind but led to nothing, and after I did a factory reset like all suggested - the situation got WORSE! the headset was useless and didn't even pass the initial setup screen because it was unable to pair with my mobile phone. oculus support suggested I send the headset to them (which would be a PITA because I do not live in a supported country). luckily a local VR lab here in my country was able to do a software update/reset with an some kind of a dev external software/hardware. and now the situation got resolved.
Solved! Go to Solution.
