Quest 3 keeps restarting

My quest 3 has had little use but when i went to turn it on it keeps restarting.

Battery is 100%, green light when plugged in. All peripherals including straps have been removed.

I have tried all the recommendations on the internet. is this that issue with the proximity sensor?

Not sure if this is what you tried form the internet...

In the mobile app, go to Menu at the bottom right, then Devices -> Headset Settings -> Power Settings and turn off the Auto Wake-Up slider.

That should deactivate the sensor. 

Quest 3-[512GB] - v.74 (non-PTC)

Unfortunately, i tried that as i also read that you could disable the proximity sensor, however the devices menu is disabled. I guess its because the quest 3 powers on, then powers off before it can pair with the phone. Ive also attempted to factory reset, but it also turns off right after the meta logo .

I can actually see the power cycle off after the meta logo. I logged a ticket with meta, will update all on progress with them.
