FIX: Quest 1 + AirLink + WebXR = v50 update step-by-step guide

*Quest 1 (v49) with Oculus Desktop (v50)
Here's what got my setup running and stable:

00) update PC drivers (especially GPU)
00) backup everything (side loaded APKs will have to be reinstalled)

  1. transition Oculus account to Meta account

  2. log out of all Oculus apps desktop + mobile

  3. factory reset Quest 1

  4. uninstall/reinstall/update Oculus mobile

  5. open Oculus mobile + log in with Meta account

  6. setup/pair Quest with Oculus mobile

  7. uninstall/reinstall/update Oculus desktop

  8. Oculus desktop = click Settings > Beta > enable Public Test Channel > Restart

  9. Oculus mobile = enable Developer Settings (factory reset turns it off)

  10. Oculus desktop = setup Quest 1 as new device

  11. Quest 1 = enable Link/AirLink and continue setup with desktop app

Now both Link and AirLink are connected, and desktop WebXR sites work great online and locally. Admittedly, redoing all of this from the ground up took some time and patience, but totally worth it in the end. Now I have an as-clean-as-possible fresh install of the final firmware for Quest 1.

Followed this and it solved the issue of Chrome/Edge not loading/playing Videos through AirLink on my Quest 1.
