Recently a friend of mine found his Quest 2 would no longer pair with the app on his phone. He did what anyone nowadays would do and went online to find out what to do to fix it. He tried all the easy stuff first like making sure his phone and headset were connected to the same wi-fi network, making sure the bluetooth on his phone was turned on, he uninstalled and reinstalled the Quest app on his phone, tried using a different phone and when none of that worked he factory reset his headset hoping that would take care of it, but in the end none of that worked. He next contacted Meta support who had him try all this same stuff over again, but did have a few other things for him to try as well. Unfortunately, once again, nothing worked. In the end support told him his headset was 'dead' and since he was out of the warranty period the best they could do was sell him a refurbished Quest 2 for $150. He doesn't use his Quest a bunch and decided he wasn't interested in paying $150 for a replacement, but before completely giving up he called me and asked if I'd run into this problem before? This was my first time hearing of this problem, so I got online and started scouring the internet for answers. Turns out this is a problem that a lot of people have experienced with their Quest headsets. Just like he did, I tried all the stuff Meta suggests, but kept getting the same "unable to connect to your headset" error message. I then decided to take it a step further and factory reset his Quest 2 then sideloaded the latest firmware for the Quest 2 and tried again, but still got the same "unable to connect to your headset" problem. After some more digging I found a workaround that uses an application on the PC called the Meta Quest Developer Hub. With nothing else working up to this point I decided to give it a shot aaaaannnnndddd... IT WORKED!!!
For anyone else experiencing this problem, if you've tried everything else and you'd like to use your Quest headset for more than an expensive paperweight, this just may be the solution you've been waiting for! 😁
