Quest controller issues

is anyone having connection issues. The system is pretty much useless as the controllers disconnect and reconnect several times a game. Can’t even complete a single round of creed without disconnecting. Very unfortunate. Does anyone know of any updates that will be released to fix this issue ?

Having the same issue. Buttons still work, but the controller just freezes in place. I’ve removed the batteries, unpaired and repaired the controllers, reset the headset, everything.

I'm having the same problem.  The only way to reset the controller is to remove battery.  Once I've done that, maybe it'll work for 15 seconds, maybe 2 minutes before the controller freezes in place.  Buttons continue to work.

As it stands my Quest is unusable because of this.  I've emailed Oculus support but have heard nothing back..

Two days ago my controllers started acting up.... power up the headset and it tells me it can't locate the controllers. Taking the batteries out and putting them back in restores it to normal each time until the next time I power down overnight. (controller batteries are around 80% at the moment)

Yeh, it can't be fixed. Wrote to support and got the run around for 3 days. All they did was sending me scripted answers and links to pages on this their website as if you can't read it yourself to begin with. Now they asked me to wait another 3-5days for someone else to help me. From what I can see on this forum there is no solution except hopefully they will send you a replacement, after of course you first mailed yours back to them.  No thank you. I returned my to Best Buy and got my money back right away.

I was having the same issue.  Mine resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling the app from phone.  When the setup completed the controller started working normally again.  As this does not cause progress to be lost, I can live with it if it happens again.

my left controller's joystick thinks that i am always moving it to the right when it should not be. what i mean is that i could be five feet away from my controller and the joy stick would still move to the right. Because i like to use locomotion movement in my games my point of view is often thrown out of whack when my controller thinks that i'm trying to move right. Has anybody else come across this problem? If you have, how did you fix it or do i just need to replace my controllers?

i have the exact same problem.now it's both controllers .  electronic components cleaner sprayed around the outside of the thumbstick helps .  at first it seems to work good but after a while you have to use it more and more.  to me it seems like something that could be fixed very easy if there was an option to recenter the thumbsticks.  it's weird that the cleaner even helps because the thumbsticks appear to be fine,not stuck or wore out or off center.even if they were dirty or wore out we need an option to calibrate ,recenter ,and adjust the dead zone in the center .
