Headset wont charge

I've had my headset from april 2022 and now it's not even charging, i tried a different cord, different outlet and it is infact dead too so I can't turn it on at all. I have to push it in or wiggle it to even charge it and when i was able to charge it it would take longer than it supposed to. More like a few hours like 3-6 hours. I don't even know what to do now. I might just have to buy a new one but I can't afford that either

Hey there, @Freyaishere01. We know getting a new device isn't always the easiest solution, so we'd love to look further into this charging concern. Having tested different options with your device, we would like to continue where you left off to work to get things running smoothly once more.

To get us started, we'd like to confirm the following has been attempted with the device: 

  • Remove any third party accessories from the headset.
  • Remove and charge the device without the facial interface.
  • Test charging from a PC.
  • Hard reboot headset.
    • This can be completed by holding the power button for 30 seconds.
  • If possible, factory reset the device.

Of course, if any issues persist, do send us a PM. We'd love to continue exhausting all options to get you back into VR. To do so, either select our name to get to our profile page, or click here while signed in to the community!
