Oculus Quest 2 no command problem RESOLVED

The Oculus Quest 2 "no command" message can indicate that there is an issue with the device's software. Here are some steps you can take to fix the problem:

Restart the Quest 2

Press and hold the power button on the right side of the device until the power off menu appears. Select "Restart" and wait for the Quest 2 to reboot.

Perform a factory reset

If restarting the Quest 2 doesn't work, you may need to perform a factory reset. This will erase all data on the device, so be sure to back up any important files first. To factory reset the Quest 2, go to the Settings menu in VR, select "Device," then "Reset," and finally "Factory Reset."

Use ADB commands

You can also try using ADB commands to fix the "no command" problem. Connect the Quest 2 to a computer with a USB cable and enable developer mode in the settings. Open a command prompt or terminal window on the computer and enter the following commands:

adb devices

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot devices

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot reboot

Contact Oculus support

If none of these steps work, you may need to contact Oculus support for further assistance. They may be able to help you diagnose and fix the problem remotely, or they may need to replace the device if it is a hardware issue.
