ahh so it is replaceable? i heard some people saying its impossible. i just got a quest 3 and ive been worrying my ass off because my usbc port got a little wobbly after i tied down the cable. the thing is, its not bad enough to warrant a replacement so i just wanna ensure im able to replace it further down the road if things go wrong. where did you get the usbc port and how hard was it to replace? was there any soldering needed?
Liked, subbed! Awesome to see how my Q3 is built, what failure modes are dominant (glad it was lucky paranoia that I was sooo careful slapping on my fairly reluctant headband). The fragility of those front three "camera capsules" was also not something I had considered yet coming over from my carefree quest 2 cameras. Awesome vid!
Hi, I just recently got a meta quest 3 and I pressed down on those black button click things on the sides with the head strap, are they important? Did I do something I shouldn’t have? Do I need to fix it and if so how?
This is a really great tear down, thank you. I was thinking to try and make the front lighter by replacing the battery with a very light 200mah 3.87v lion battery. And then run the headset via USB cable on BoboVR strap. Do you think that's feasible or does the headset draw power quicker than it can charge? Thanks!
That’s a great question. I’ve swapped in replacement batteries on the quest 2 and 3, but never tried an alternative model. Of battery. They are packed pretty tight in there, but I am sure it’s possible.
@@fixmyoculus lovely The depth sensor shouldn’t pose an issue during disassembly right? Also, I did notice a separate piece besides the camera assembly, what’s that?
@fouzr the Depth sensor and cameras all just unscrew pretty easily. There are some brackets and cables that are adhered to the front plate. I may do a separate video on just disassembly of that whole apparatus.
Do you guys fix lenses? My right lense has been scratched bad since like the first month I got my q3 but I haven't been able to fix it. How long does it usually take?
Friend, I already got Quest 3 with a microphone problem. Mine has a microphone problem. Last time I blew into the air intake at the front and it came back on, but now it stopped working again. I did the same process but it didn't work. Sorry if the translation isn't right. I'm from Brazil.
Someone PLEASE? tell me where I can get a replacement heatsink bracket. Mine has cracked on both of the screw surrounds on top and is causing the facia to pop out and I can hear my fan like a tiny jet engine.
hey if you want to work together on that part you want 3d printed let me know and if you can send me the dimensions or one of the pieces or even show me how to get it out of my quest 2 i wont take my quest 3 apart lol but if i can get the part we can doi it
So i have a big question. why haven't we seen Hall Effect joystick modifications for the 3's controllers? or the 2 for that matter. The joystick module is small, sure, but we have hall effect joycon and switch lite modules now, and those are smaller and dainty as hell. I feel like someone should do an ultimate Quest mod kit. Hall effect joysticks, those wireless charge battery replacements, some kind of mod for the speaker arm that gives better speakers, and some cable routing/USB Hub functionality. stuff like that.
My suspicion is that Meta goes out of their way to make sure no one is producing things like that. Pursuing legal action when they need to etc. If they weren’t, we would have seen lots of little upgradable parts and things come in from overseas by now.
@@fixmyoculus Yeah, but the weird part is that not even Nintendo could stop that kinda stuff for the switch. when they do it's usually to emulation related stuff, you'd think we'd at least hear someone talking about it, i haven't seen ANYTHING online
Hi, my quest 3 has a charging issue. Most of the time it wont charge but when it does it wont pass the meta logo. It goes on that meta logo boot loop until it runs out of battery and it gets really hot.
Hey I have a question, my oculus quest 2 left controller disconnects every time I put it a bit behind me (my right doesn’t), this happened shortly after smacking it. I opened it up and my tracking sensors are not ruined and my ribbon cable has no rips. Do you know what could cause this?
Hi, that happened on my Q3 left controller wont connect and right keeps disconnecting. The culprit, 9:29 BT antenna wasn’t connected properly when I disasemble them.
hello, i wanna ask something, i replace my display to new display and my oculus cant boot, its get bootloop like meta loading disappear and reappear, and before that i got like chip logo with green bar, its has something wrong? i do some adb update, its cant solve that problem too!, i need your help!. Thanksyou
I think it’s mostly just because I’ve had so many more request for the quest 2 repairs and they’ve been out so much longer. We’ve done hundreds of repairs on the quest 2. If not thousands. What kind of Quest 3 repair video would you like me to do next?
@@fixmyoculus could you please make a cooling fan replacement video on the quest 3? I have a "cooling fan not working properly" message when i boot up my quest 3 and i need to replace it but where i live (Chile) it's almost imposible to send it to a repair service, so i'll own you my life if you can make that replacement video
Are you looking for someone to design and print the connections for you? It should be much more stable with a good ABS resin. If so, feel free to write to me.
used this to teardown and replace usbc port. huge success

My man, stuck in a similar boat any hope on helping us out?
What a great video. Thank you. And thank you for not having obnoxious blairing background music.👍
Thanks for the awesome tear down 👍
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your videos man. I use them to 3D print things to avoid many of these issues.
I’m happy to help!
Excellent teardown. Thank you for making this!
Love your videos, and your shop did a great job with our quest 2 repair!
Thanks man you gave me hope on fixing the 3 front cameras

Nice and solid. Would be nice your review / reaction to Pico4 disassembly. Video of insides comparison would be very interesting and popular too.
I would love to do that!
هذا شرح رائع.

Do you buff out the lenses or just replace them because if you could make a video on how you repair the lense that'd be great!
Yeah, as I asked in the old teardown video. Are it just these screws around the lenses, that hold them in place?
No. The lenses are glued in.
Where can I get the plastic fitting that holds the charging port. The plastic fitting that has the O rings??
We should be getting more on the website soon.
He kept his word
I do my best!
Cool video
Thank you!

How long do you think before we get different coloured front covers?(transparent??) Disassembly of it seems fairly straightforward
We’re working on that actively! Hopefully we can release something soon.
@@fixmyoculus lovely

What is the depth sensor type and model?

We do fix them. My turnaround time is about 7-10 days right now.

Actually I have some fog/smudges on my lenses can u give me a quick explanation on how to remove it

can you replace the memory chip to gain more memory from 128 to 512
If you are skilled enough and get your hands on a 512 gig chip than ya
I have a problem, mine doesn't move at all what you think it is, not with the controls or anything.
This will probably help if I win the 3s

I have a problem with the AC in my quest 3 how can I replace them please ?
The fan unit?
@@fixmyoculus i think so
There's probably something stuck in the fan just open the back and spin it that worked for me
@@swishasweetroldhow do you open it?
@@RayzoVega take the rubber faceplate off and unscrew all the screws that connect to the back

I’d love to take a look at it if you want to send it in. We have a repair request form on our website if you want to request a shipping label.

so is that Y the 512 models don't sell ?

To me this sounds like an indication that one of the cameras or camera ribbons isn’t installed correctly or was damaged.
@@fixmyoculus i try to replace ribbon + camera its wont work too! i have many sparepart here, any solution?
It’s hard to say. Troubleshooting can be a frustrating process. I do think it’s either a camera or ribbon based on the symptoms.
Anyone else had an issue with the aux port just breaking and getting loose? It still works, it just jiggles around.
You said you’ve repaired almost 50 of quest 3 but most of your videos are quest 2. Wish you have more quest 3 videos.
I think it’s mostly just because I’ve had so many more request for the quest 2 repairs and they’ve been out so much longer. We’ve done hundreds of repairs on the quest 2. If not thousands.

@twistedmetalyrock200 Yes.
jeeez the amount of work to fix that thing imo people need to buy warranties on these things
Do you call someone to change your tire too? 😂
Are you looking for someone to design and print the connections for you? It should be much more stable with a good ABS resin. If so, feel free to write to me.

👏👏👏👏👏
I can make those 3d rings you need
I wanted to remove the battery and rewire it externally for better weight distribution but holy shit after watching this video I think I'll pass!
15:40 - all of this for replace the battery. soo many.
