userPresence always reads true when casting on Quest
This looks like a bug (but perhaps it's something that was done for a better streaming experience.) HMDMount/HMDUnmount notifications don't occur when casting. Querying the UnityEngine.XR.InputDevice API behaves as expected for the CommonUsages.userPresence query, but always returns true when casting, even with the headset off for a significant time. Ditto with the OVRPlugin.userPresent property queries. For some applications, a safety warning notice needs to appear, followed by explicit user agreement, when it's likely that a user has passed on the headset. However, when casting, this cannot be done. Is there any other way to get this information - assuming the always-true result is intentional - short of directly querying the Android OS's proximity sensor API via plugin? Any info greatly appreciated.Disable proximity sensor (re-center) on app only
Hello, I am currently working on a unity project with Quest 3 where I instantiate some cubes using raycast (still in the demo), but when i take off the headset and move, or rotate my head and wear it again, the cubes position drift or move to right where i am looking because they are relative to the headset's position. I am looking for a way when i take off my headset, to not let proximity sensor work (in app only) just like First Encounters (i don't want to disable it completely from MQDH), get to the boolean that is making it work, or to stop whatever the hmdUnmounted event is doing, i want to stop recentering by any means necessary but ONLY inside the app. I am using the OVRCameraRig from Meta XR All-in-one.My Quest 2 was reset to factory settings and I can't use it because of the proximity sensor
My quest 2 had a boot loop and I tried a few things like factory reset and firmware update, and in the end I found out that it was due to the proximity sensor, so I removed the faulty proximity sensor from the quest 2 and it booted up normally But now it's stuck on the black screen because of the faulty proximity sensor and I can't set it up because it doesn't allow me to use it since I can't see anything I tried to deactivate the proximity sensor through the computer, but for me to deactivate it I need to activate the usb debug mode, but then another problem appears, I paired the quest 2 with my cell phone to activate debug mode and it does not allow me to activate it My account is already verified, I don't understand why it doesn't allow me to activate this option Honestly, I don't know what to do, I can't set it up through the quest because it has a black screen because of the sensor, and I can't even deactivate the sensor because I can't activate debug mode on my cell phone If anyone can help me I will be very grateful, because in my country Quest 2 is really expensive, and there is no authorized assistance from Meta, I contacted support but they asked me to send it to another country but even if they fix it my quest 2 in another country, when it is sent back it will be taxed at basically the price of a new one
Is it possible to deactivate Oculus sleep mode when removing HMD in Unreal builds?
Hello everyone! My team and me are working on a VR game. My game goes like: -The experience START when HMD detecting a player wearing it. -The experience STOP when HMD detecting nobody wearing it -then ***screensaver Mirrored on screen*** with the VR still activated (Working in Unreal Preview). We are using the proximity sensor of the Oculus to know when changing the level. (So it is impossible to just Tape the sensor to solve the issue). THE PROBLEM: The Oculus Rift in standalone builds, for performance issues or something, will not render camera when not weared, and then will not mirror any images on screen, making the screensaver full black. Is there any option, or modifiable SDK code to prevent Oculus to stop render? Thank you!
Are there adb commands to disable the proximity sensor?
I was working on full end to end testing and having our quest builds run on hardware as part of our CI/build process. The tests/apk won't run if the screen isn't on. I came up with the following solution as a workaround but this is more of a fun hack than a scalable solution. raspberry pi zero w w/ a servo attached to a cheap skull I found at target.
ODH 1.8.0: Proximity sensor switch stuck on "loading"
Hello, Starting three weeks ago, I've been unable to turn on/off the proximity sensor on my Quest 2 through the ODH "My Device" page; I was able to operate the switch before, but one day it stopped working altogether, completely out of the blue. Short of a factory reset, what else can I do? Is there a shell command I can use to reset the status? Btw, the proximity sensor is on in the headset, but I need to turn it off.
Black screen when I insert Note 5, following recent update
My phone updated (the phone's OS), and now when I insert the Note 5 into the headset, I do hear the first sound you hear when Oculus launches, but if I put on the headset, I do not hear the normal sound that indicates that a face is present, and all I see is a completely black screen (that is, the black screen with the tiny x in the corner). I looked for other versions of this problem, but they are very out-of-date, so I'm not sure if this is just me (I have uninstalled and re-installed some of Oculus' software already), or if (coincidentally), the problem is actually with the headset and I've been traveling with it. Unfortunately, while I have other devices and I have another headset, I can't cross-test, because I am missing the micro-usb adapter for the headset that would take both my Note 5 and Note 8. Before I take apart this headset to see if the prox sensor is disconnected, I wanted to know if there's something else I should try.Which events (android or other) fire when user puts down/up GEAR VR glasses. (Native Development)
Hi guys, So far i could not manage to find out which events are fired (or how to query the state of) when the user puts the GEAR VR down. It seemingly doesnt fire any APP_CMD_PAUSE/RESUME events and also no other standard android events. The screen does actually go black as expected when putting down the glasses but no events are fired. What am I missing ? Cheers RomanEdit proximity sensor settings?
Hello! I'm just starting with the Samsung VR in an educational setting. I know programming basics, but I'm not adept by any means. I was wondering it it is possible to have a video play for students, then when they remove the headset for "x" amount of time (<30 seconds), it pauses then resumes where it paused. However, if the headset is removed for "y" longer amount of time (>30 seconds), it restarts the video from the beginning. Are there apps that would help me accomplish this? If not, is modifying the current settings in the system very difficult? If there is already a resource available for this, please point me in that direction! (I did do a search : ) Thank you.
