Purple Sky PCVR Link loading screen gets stuck/locked/frozen
I bought a Quest 3, a couple of days ago, it initially worked ok. But I wanted to get the best out of it, so I gave ChatGPT all my PC/GPU/Game and play information, of which I updated all the various settings, until I broke the PC Link, after 8 hours of trouble shooting/multiple reinstalls. I eventually found the one setting out of nearly 200 that resolved my issue. I found out that the Purple Sky PCVR Link loading screen gets stuck/locked/frozen if you have used the Oculus Debug Tool and set the Encode Bitrate (Mbps) too high (I can use 940, but NOT 1000, my cable tests at 2.9Gbps)! To test, set it to 0 (auto), use the Service menu to Restart Oculus Service, wait 2 mins and try the link again. Note: Restarting the Oculus Service this way kicks you out of the Purple Sky PCVR Link loading screen. Happy VR'ing!
Quest 3 triggers not pressing buttons in menu
My quest 3 controllers work just fine when im entering in my passcode, but after it logs me in i then can no longer press anything wiht my controllers, they are still connected and track normally and i can see the trigger move on the in vr version of my controller so i know its not a problem with the physical trigger, but i no longer have the cursor the would appear on the menu when you point your controller at your menu, i also can no longer see the line that would appear in front of your controller for our cursor. I have tried all the following methods to attempt to fix it with no result: Factory resetting Unpairing and repairing controllers Replacing batteries Restarting headset Clearing boundary history Entering immersive mode and re entering passthrough Switching accounts Pressing with the end of the controller
Temporary workaround for “Horizon Link not working / can’t connect” (USB-C)
Hi, I found a temporary workaround for Horizon Link not connecting. If you urgently need it for development like I do, try the steps below while we wait for Meta to fix the issue. Workaround (worked for me — both USB-C Link and Air Link were failing): Disconnect your PC from the internet (disable Wi-Fi / unplug Ethernet). Navigate to: C:\Program Files\Meta Horizon\Support\oculus-client\ Launch client.exe manually (do NOT use the desktop shortcut / Fixer.exe). After starting it this way, Horizon Link connects successfully. (Optional) Reconnect the internet after the connection is established. Summary: If Horizon Link suddenly stops working, try starting it offline and run client.exe directly from the install folder.
Meta Link/Wireless Link | Microphone level stuck at 50% on PC
My Quest 3 Mic works completely fine in headset native games, I cannot get it to work via Meta Link. I have tried reinstalling and repairing the Meta Link app, go through windows registries and reset tons of audio components and nothing has seemed to work. The Oculus Virtual Audio Device is listed in my devices and is not disabled, and its stuck at 50% audio level. I have also used a Rift S under the same Oculus Virtual Audio Device input when connected to the PC in the past. Since then I removed it as a device, and tried to delete any files that might be under Rift S. What could be the problem?
Quest 3 WiFi connection takes down internet
Hi folks. This may sound like a weird one, it does to me. But I am a fairly experienced IT professional (retired) and I cannot figure this one out. I have a pretty standard router in my house (TP-Link AX1800). There are lots of different things on my property that use the WiFi and all of them work perfectly fine all the time, unless my ISP goes down. Now, enter the Quest 3. I used to use the Quest 3 connected to a different WiFi on an access point router. Then life got busy and I did nothing with the Quest 3 for weeks. However, it was plugged in. I do not know exactly when the problem started. Here's the problem: I can have many different devices on my home network just humming along. Then, as soon as the Quest 3 connects to the WiFi, all devices in the network lose their internet access. If I turn off the Quest 3 WiFi, the network will return but it will take a while, I am guessing because it is probably reconnecting with my ISP, or something like that. Does anyone know anything that could help me know what's going on? I know how to get into my router and I have checked all the available settings. As stated, everything else works perfectly. I opened a support ticket with Meta but I don't know how long that will take or whether they will even address it with me. I should add that the headset has no problem connecting to my iPhone WiFi hotspot. So, I know it's either something in the TP-Link router configuration, or something at the ISP. I have not contacted the ISP yet. I even had a brand new TP-Link BE9700 WiFi 7 router so I set it up and same result. That makes me think it's the headset. I changed mac addressing to Use Device Mac on the headset. And yes, I did a factory reset of the headset, and when everything was re-initialized, the problem still exists. I am lost. Any help, suggestions, I am all ears. I can't think of anything else to check.
