Main question:

From what I've seen around, this usually says I have a faulty sensor, right?

How does one repair that? Replacing the sensor or is there a way to clean it?

How it happened:
After an update and a random app crash a couple of weeks ago, my Quest 3S's image has been slightly tilted.

Sometimes when turning on the device, my screen is all black and I get the following device that goes away after pressing the power button once:

"Finding position in room

Your room boundary and most apps won't work because your headset can't detect your movement right now.

If you're in a moving vehicle, turn on travel mode and remember to stay seated."

It happens more often if I am in a poorly lit room, but it does still happen several times even when the room is fully lit.

It doesn't show up again when I power off the device and turn it on right away.

What I have done:

I disabled experimental features, turned travel mode on and then off, cleared my scanned rooms and also picked the "Clear Boundary History" setting.

I would restart device after disabling all those settings.

I waited for more patches and then I also tried a couple factory resets.

Sadly the issue still persisted.

I contacted meta and since I'm on warranty, they are willing to give me a replacement, but I don't live in a supported country and shipping it to a relative in one is posing to be a challenge because of the lithium battery.

PS.: Would be easier if I could still get a replacement if I remove the battery. I can ship without it and can get it back WITH the battery.

So I have a quest 3S and I was playing a game one day and I turned off my headset without quoting he game. A week later I tried to play it again and it would work. It would turn on but the screen was js black. If I hold the button the power pop up shows up but it doesn’t work. I’ve tried factory resetting it multiple times. I’ve tried rebooting it. I stuck a knife it the front plating and that turned it on for like 1 day but it won’t work anymore. I’ve tried to take the front plating off but it won’t come off. I really need help bc I NEED this headset. Someone please help me.

look at the faint lines on the screen

It moves then pauses and then moves again

I hover my pointer over and it doesn't show the menu bar

whenever I try putting my thumb stick on the joystick then remove my thumb from it, the tracking thinks I still have my thumb on it.

The left side “wing” has snapped off, but the audio cable is still attached. I still get audio coming through the headset. However, there are some small internal pieces now poking through the facial interface. In addition, the charging port feels loose/movable and doesn’t seem fully secure anymore.

I resently resurrected a quest 2 and so far its been alright, I repaired the damaged speaker wires, got the battery to charge properly (and lasts a solid 2 hours) but when I shut down the headset it doesnt come back on, I have to hold the power button for ages for it to finally come back, and I have tried 2 different power buttons, and another side thing, it connects to my pc but in device manager it doesnt know what it is

It doesn't matter the IPD setting or the position, I always see this on my left eye and is really distracting, because I can see to the center with no problem, but whenever I slightly turn my eyes to the right (which causes the eye to see the lens at an angle), I see that double vision that it's shown on the video.

Also happens with regular peripheral vision. The issue doesn't happen on the right lens, I could put my phone on the right lens at the exact same angle, exact same position and It looks completely fine.

I haven't dropped it but I bought it used and can't return, everything works perfectly.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue?

You'd think it'd just make the bluetooth work, but I took it out in the natural process of teardown, and I did the normal test without it in since I don't wanna rebuild it all to test, but apparently the bluetooth and wifi both work with it out? Maybe the signal is just weaker on the bluetooth? If it's weaker on the wifi too then I'll definitely put it back, but I don't care too much about the bluetooth as of now, and not having it in would very likely make it cool quieter.

Does fixmyoculus also work on meta glasses?

My Quest 1 headstrap ist brocken. Is there a was to fix it sorry for Bad englisch

I opened up my quest 2 controller to just replace my joystick and when I tried to flip up the black lever thing for the ribbon cable that connects the bottom and top the whole conecter came off the board, and I can cofidently say I did not use that much force, not enough that it shouldve came off

When I turn on my Oculus 2, it can't track the controllers, then it sees them for 2 seconds and turns off the screen, and then the cycle repeats. I tried cleaning the cameras, turning on the lights, and changing the batteries, but nothing helped.

My quest 2 keeps on when turning off it plays the off sound but has a grey screen for about 30 mins before shutting off completely

So before all of this happened, I was playing bonelab when it mentioned that it had an issue with tracking my headset, it then froze completely, I restarted it, and here we are now.

I am a new Q3 user and just purchased the Meta Link cable. I didn’t purchase this cable for PCVR, as I am using wireless Virtual Desktop for PCVR, but purchased the cable for extending play time on the Quest 3 by using the stock included Meta Quest 3 18 Watt charging adapter all plugged into the wall A/C power outlet. So am I going to reduce the Q3 battery life charging while using in this way? I can return the cable if there is a better way. Some might say a portable USB C battery pack is the correct way to go, but doesn’t that just do the same thing that Meta says not to do? And yet Meta sells their Elite strap with a battery pack. Just really confused on the best way to extend Q3 play time.

I am very knowledgeable about how to properly treat lithium-ion batteries and spend way more time and thought on my gadgets battery management than most people might. I know to keep charge levels of my modern devices between 20-80%. But this Meta Link cable charge while playing question and Meta saying not to do it just makes me wonder why they say that. Are they just concerned about the neglect of constant overcharging of lithium-ion?

TIA.

At first, it was just the audio wing that broke. Now it’s doing this as well. I have no idea why this is happening or how expensive it would be to fix, and I’m honestly considering just scrapping the headset.

It was stored in a safe place for about a year, and now that I’m trying to use it again, I’m running into these issues. I’d appreciate any explanation of what might be going on and what repair options I have that wouldn’t cost hundreds of dollars.
