3S Black Screen
One day I got back to my house after school and as usual I was trying to get on my Meta Quest 3S to play Gorilla Tag but my VR showed a black screen. Initially I knew nothing was wrong and decided that it might have just been a glitch and tried restarting it, that didn't work so I decided to factory reset manually (Power and volume down buttons) this didn't do anything and left my screen black. I could hear sounds and see power off options such as the restart, power off and cancel buttons and could interact with them but they did nothing. This was four days ago on Friday 13 (crazy I know) and I don't know what to do, I have tried all basic maneuvers of trying to reboot, update (from the computer), let it die, factory reset, power off, restart, and nothing has seemed to work. When I tried updating the system both my Quest and the computer claims that the update completes and that everything went smoothly but nothing changes and the black screen remains. Whenever it is in the updating phase (plugged into my laptop and Quest) the LED on the left side is a purple/magenta color, which I've heard means the Quest needs an update. I just want to play gorilla tag again, could someone help me with my issue please? Thank you. -Sincerely, bruh.6311730Views0likes0CommentsMeta quest 3s stuck in usb update mode

Hello, everyone! I have a question about my Meta Quest 3S. Tonight, I put my headset on charge because I noticed that the battery was low, but I also noticed that after a while, the charging indicator light changed from orange to white and the lenses activated. Not knowing what this meant, I got a little worried about the health of my headset, so please, can anyone give me some answers? Thank you!

So, recently I had purchased a quest 3S. The headset is great and I've been having no problems with it aside for the fact that I can't seem to pair my quest pro controllers with it. When will the pro controllers become compatible with the 3S so I can stop using my Quest 2 to maximize the 150 dollar purchase I made on top of buying a new headset?9.1KViews9likes32CommentsApps Not Downloading
I am having a major issue where none of the apps or updates on my Quest 3S are installing. Every download just says Queued or Installing indefinitely and never completes. This is happening for both new app downloads and updates for apps I already have. Device: Meta Quest 3S Software Version: 83v Troubleshooting I’ve already tried: Restarting the headset multiple times. Turning Wi-Fi off and back on. Canceling and restarting the downloads. Checking for enough storage space Is there a known fix that doesn't require a factory reset? Thanks for the help!77Views0likes6CommentsMy Meta Quest 3s keeps going black
Since the 22nd, my 3s keeps going black every time I turn it on. The meta os startup works but then after it just goes black and my controllers keep making beeping noises. On the 22nd, I kept having to find different solutions but next time I turn it on, it stops working again. As of today it just keeps going black OR saying finding position. I tried cleaning it, resetting it, rebooting it, and nothing works. Any ideas on how to fix it? (Note: I only got this back in April 2025, hasn't even been a year yet which is very disappointing.) As far as I can tell, I might have to go back to playing on my 2 if this persists.Solved98Views0likes4CommentsInternet Issue > Wi-fi Connected But Not Internet
Connected to Internet Connection on Meta Quest 3S but when I join a game it says 'Check your network and try again' When I join like animal company / gorrila tag it's failing to connect to a game. Can you fix this meta? How do I fix this? I don't want to Factory Reset. My headset is right now connected to Wi-Fi but can't play games like online games (multiplayer games) Note: I used another wifi to connect to my VR but it still dose not work it's my VR that is causing the problem.52Views0likes1CommentHorizon link not working
My Q3 was linking fine to my PC this afternoon, then literally an hour or two later, will not link. I'm using a usb 3.0 cable, it is in a USB 3 port, power management of USB port is set correctly. I get a notification saying 'Meta Quest Link isn't working correctly. Click here to check our support article'. There is no support article. I have restarted the headset and PC, repaired the Horizon app, logged out and back into the Horizon app, restarted the OVR service and I still can't get it to work. Anyone else having or had similar issues recently?

Hi I found out you can connect LE-audio bluetooth earbuds to Meta Quest 3s. My problem is, it doesn't work at all. It connects but everything becomes super laggy and no audio at all when LE mode is enabled in bluetooth settings. I have Creative Zen Air Plus earbuds which supports LE audio when connecting to its' specific pairing name. When I do so, I can hear "LE connected... LE disconnected... LE connected... LE disconnected..." every couple seconds from the earbuds. Also everything on the Quest becomes like a 0.1fps slideshow until I disconnect the earbuds. When I connect the earbuds with normal bluetooth mode, everything works fine. Only problem is that games have 1-2s latency in audio. Videos (Youtube etc.) don't have delay because they sync with the audio. Is the bluetooth LE-audio mode still early experimental or is it supposed to work as intended already? Until it's resolved I can use wired earbuds with PD/audio usb-dongle. But then I lose smart funtionality of Elite battery strap. They charge the glasses fine but Quest settings doesn't tell how much there is charge left in the strap. Edit: I purchased EarFun Air Pro 4+ earbuds and they work flawlessly in LE-mode. Creative Zen Air Plus uses Mediatek chip which doesn't seem to be compatible. EarFun uses Snapdragon chip which works. At least that's the info I have been gathering from different sources. I hope this is of any help for anyone.Solved102Views0likes5CommentsGlows on light elements in my meta quest 3s
Hi, I have a problem with my Meta quest 3s. White or clear images (including writing) appear with glows on a black background. This also applies to the dashboard (with a white theme especially, but slightly scanned with the black theme) when I use the headset in a dark environment. When the logo appears I give an app that I start on a black screen has 'stripes' as if I had dirty glasses (I also wear glasses but they are quite clean, as well as the lenses of the headset) and it also happens to me with the light of any element of the game (same light bulbs). I'm undecided whether to make a return or keep it, because I don't know if it's a defect or it's right like this. I know that fresnel lenses have this factory defect but it seems more accentuated to me. When I activate the immersive house (very bright environment) the halos disappear. In addition, the halos are mostly located where I am not looking (so at the edges most of the timeWhen I activate the immersive house (very bright environment) the halos disappear.
