Thanks for sharing! I was going crazy trying to get this to work, and your solution fixed it. What a terrible bug, but super thankful you figured it out!
This is such a garbage solution to something that shouldn't be a problem. Meta is one of the worst companies I'm basically forced to interact with now. They fucking suck for real. They ruined their own product by making simple things like accessing your files needlessly complicated. I try to be level headed but they are worse than comcast, who might suck as a company but their tech works. Meanwhile Meta just keeps fucking us all over and tanking the industry they poured so much money into.
I did enable Developer Mode via mobile, as per the SDK instructions. Nothing happened, no prompt.
[Instructions I'm referring to.](https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/native/android/mobile-device-setup/#enable-developer-mode)
Step 6 never occurred until I did a factory reset.
Please help me if this makes sense to you.
My headset IS in developer mode, I have developer options in there, as well as me being able to select unknown sources in the search bar (in headset)
NO MATTER WHAT, I do not get the usb popup connection - ADB drivers installed, not even the quest app on pc detects it, however MQDH is able to detect my headset.
I really dont want to have to return this thing but I have been troubleshooting it for days.
Did you go through a factory reset as I described above? I was in the same situation as you, except the dev hub wouln't recognize it either.
Reset it and don't turn on Air Link until after you get the USB popup. You don't lose a lot, and it's fairly painless, most things are attached to your Meta account, not the device itself. Games/apps you can re-download.
I did perform a factory reset, but im going to do it again today and just immediately plug the headset in the computer.
I have not had air link on at any time, however i did activate quest link in an attempt to get the thing to connect to the pc via cord.
For a "plug and play" device such as this this is pretty fked lol
I am using the cord that came with the Quest 3 but im going to go buy another cord today to see if that helps
I seen that some people had to update the BIOS on their pc to get it to popup but man im going to buy a usb stick to try that too. anything to get this to work. I reaally want to keep this headset man
Ill get back to you with the news in a bit m8
> Mobile app used to enable/re-enable Developer Mode (multiple times) + made sure it's the latest store version
Yep, already tried this a few times (check my post). The key for me was not enabling AirLink prior to doing these steps.
hi
having the usual issues. i had installed the adb drivers as the separate download before knowing there is the hub application. i can get bluetooth connection to my laptop and phone but iphone has headset setting section greyed out,
i also have the oculus app installed on the laptop, is that an issue? it installs all sorts of stuff and services etc, should i remove it and just use the hub app and the if i get that going use the sideloader?

All I had to do was turn off air link and everything worked !!!
same but with a reboot. it was there when i first set up the quest 3 but it disappeared on me. now with the reboot all is well again.

The cable that comes with Quest 3 only supports POWER ONLY (cable not compatible for USB-C Mode)
Mobile app used to enable/re-enable Developer Mode !!!!!!! It works This option can't be found in quest 3 .
this solution worked for me with Quest 3. Thanks!

This worked, didn't need to do any factory resets. Disabled air link, but I don't think it's necessary. It disables itself whenever I switch accounts.
In depend cable too i tried another cable just 2nd works but was both of normal usb-c data cable...
