Meta Quest Link latency
Hi, I am experiencing latency on my controllers via link. I'm assuming this is linked to some gpu setting being on and was wondering if anyone knows some tweaks to fix this?

v85 - Disable sleep mode for Quest Pro controllers
Hi everyone, I’d like to raise a request regarding the upcoming Quest firmware v85. Could we please get an option to disable sleep mode for Quest Pro controllers, or at least extend the idle timeout significantly? Many of us are using Quest Pro controllers not only for standard VR interaction but also as trackers — for example in motion rigs, motion compensation setups, simulators, and other stationary tracking use cases. In these scenarios, the controller may remain physically still for periods of time while still being actively used for tracking data. Right now, after a few minutes of no movement, the controller automatically goes to sleep. When this happens, tracking is lost and it disrupts the entire setup until the controller is woken up again. This would make Quest Pro controllers far more reliable for advanced users who rely on them as dedicated trackers. Thanks for considering this request

Probleme connexion link
Bonjour, ça fait des au moins deux semaines que j’ai un problème avec mon Link depuis la nouvelle mise à jour v85 de mon Quest 3 mon ne me semble plus fonctionner. J’ai essayé toutes les méthodes, j’ai rien trouvé pour le faire fonctionner. Si quelqu’un aurait une solution, j’en serais ravi. Merci de votre compréhension.

Is there documentation on how to build controllers?
I don't really want to make my own controllers, but what I would like to build would be some gloves with a haptic bit in them (and use Hand Tracking instead)... Is there HW/SW documentation for building "peripherals" to the Quest?

Meta Quest 3s can’t connect to app
Meta Quest 3s worst device I ever purchased. Can’t connect device to app, did all the troubleshooting tips besides with Pc cause I don’t have one and that’s unfair to the customers who don’t have one cause now we out of 300 plus dollars. If the issue is a software issue regardless of warranty or not Meta should be able to fix it cause this is happening on their end. I’m a very dissatisfied customer and I’m looking into a class action lawsuit. Too many customers are experiencing the same issue with no solution. I dislike wasting my money especially when I work very hard to get the device for it to stop working on Meta part not mine. I’m highly disappointed, upset, frustrated and exhausted with this experience with this product.

Quest 3 Left controller wont update
It was working fine and then stopped. It tried to do a firmware update and it will make it to 66% and then reset, does this 3 times and then fails. Tried all of the “fixes” I.e. unpair, factory reset, batteries, but it will not work. Any other solutions??

[UNRESOLVED as of May 30, 2024] - Quest 3 Controller Tracking Issues
update May 30, 2024: There have been no updates/improvements to controller tracking since Meta Support marked this as solved! Community consensus seems to be that this issue stems from hardware/software limitations with the controllers, specifically the method of tracking (as a software developer working specifically in the machine learning and computer vision space, I agree that this technology is not particularly robust enough to handle some types of movement). If you play games that require fast hand movements and/or dynamic hand positioning, I would recommend not buying a Quest 3, unfortunately. I've heard some anecdotes regarding improved tracking with the Quest Pro controllers, but the improvements are marginal at best - not worth the additional ~$300 for minimal performance gains IMO. My personal recommendation is to stick to Quest 2. Not to detract from the various improvements that the Quest 3 has brought (e.g., color passthrough w/higher resolution, better hand tracking, higher overall hardware specs compared to Quest 2, etc.), but Quest 2 controller tracking is significantly better than the Quest 3's. Ideally, my hope is that Meta will push an update that allows for pairing Quest 2 controllers with the Quest 3, but as of right now, that's just a pipe dream as Meta has given no indication of making these headsets/controllers backwards compatible. While I'm (naively) hopeful that things will change, realistically speaking, I have 0 expectations and a lot of disappointment. tl;dr: I've had a Quest 2 for almost 3 years. I received my Quest 3 today and was very excited to use it. Controller tracking performance is much worse than the Quest 2, at least in the context of games where you swing your arms as fast as you can. This was not a problem for the Quest 2 (unless controllers were physically damaged, e.g., hitting a wall, dropping them, etc.). Don't buy if you play games like Gorilla Tag, Beat Saber, Synth Riders, or any of the other games mentioned throughout this thread!!! Question: Are there ways to modify the Quest 3's controller tracking such that fast hand movements won't be affected by the prediction-like behavior where the in-game hand moves farther than you swing? When I perform a baseball throwing movement with my hand/arm, the tracking will not keep up and it ends up losing my hand's position for a fraction of a second, causing my in-game hand to be positioned farther away than my hand actually is (this is not an issue with Quest 2 controller tracking). Details/Context: I primarily use VR for exercise, and I mostly play Gorilla Tag. Gorilla Tag is a game where you play as the upper half of a gorilla, using your arms as your means of locomotion. Basically, you use your arms as if they were your legs, and you can run, climb trees, wall-run, etc. It's an infection-based tagging game where you join a lobby of up to 9 other people, and the game will randomly select a player to be the first tagger. The tagger(s) will continue tagging until everyone in the lobby has been tagged (infection-style), and then a random player will be selected as first tagger; this pattern just continuously repeats. While the learning curve is pretty steep to play at a high level, there is a growing community of players who are very competitive (approx. 10-20k players based on the communities I participate in - Competitive Gorilla Tag on Discord and Gorilla Tag Competitive on Discord). As a prominent member of this community, people have been seeking my feedback on whether or not the Quest 3 is worth it. While I feel that a majority of the new features are amazing, I have had issues with the controller tracking. Gorilla Tag is an active game where you're constantly swinging your arms as fast as you can to travel around the map(s) to avoid being tagged. The primary player base for the game is Quest 2 users. Aside from physical damage, most players have not had any problems with controller tracking on the Quest 2, aside from when the controller goes out of the tracking range of the headset (as expected). However, the Quest 3 controllers lose tracking during medium-fast to fast hand movement (medium-fast: like playing catch with a friend; fast: throwing a baseball as hard as you can). The consequence of this in the context of Gorilla Tag is that your in-game arm extends to the game's max arm length frequently, causing your hand to collide with the wall/tree/ground and launch you away from the surface. This is a big issue for games/activities involving fast-paced hand movement as it's not nearly as reliable as the Quest 2 controller tracking performance.

サポートから交換品（メタクエスト3）が届いたが初期設定のコントローラーのペアリングに失敗する
サポートから交換品のメタクエスト3を受け取り視線誘導で初期設定をしていましたが、最初の左コントローラーのペアリングにてController update in progress Left(FAILED)と出てしまい画面がカクカクの状態で先に進むことが出来ません。左コントローラーのペアリングをスキップして右コントローラーのペアリングでも同じような状態になってしまいます。色々調べた結果、コントローラーのファームウェアが最新でメタクエスト3のファームウェアが古いため起きる事象の可能性があるようです。ホームページのソフトウェアアップデートツールを使用しても接続できませんと出るため更新できませんでした。サポートに問い合わせを行いましたが、2週間以上確認中のまま進みません。解決法はないでしょうか。
