Im having the same issue

I see your comment is only a few hours old and I know it's torture trying to get a new toy set up. I replied to another comment but you may not see it. You need to have both location and Bluetooth enabled on your phone or it won't pair properly. I needed to enable location and restart the Oculus app. Hope this helps.

I also had the same problem. I had to connect my phone to the same Wi-Fi network that the Oculus Quest 2 was using, then it worked!

Hey i had this issue on my intial setup and fixed it...
Leave headset on pairing mode on head so it stays awake...
Restart phone...
Before loading oculus app, turn on bluetooth and location services (you dont need to allow the app)
Then when you load the oculus app it should find your headset without the code and offer to pair it.

Just to confirm: This worked for me.
The app was stuck in the "looking for headset" even though bluetooth was enabled on my Android smartphone. All I had to do was
and then the pairing worked. Notably, my headset was on the whole time and didn't need to be restarted... But that is usually a good troubleshooting tip in general (ie, something not working? Turn it off and on)

location access prompt on the phone
tapping blue next button just blinks and doesn't go to next screen
looking for headset and never does
bluetooth and location high accuracy and same wifi network as headset
what now?
