So after a couple days of grueling troubleshooting trying to get this peice of shit Rift S's dataport issues to stop, i find a basic routine that sort of works enough as a stop gap to atleast have a solid play session. (>>296032439 im this anon)

This works for about two days, before suddenly for no reason the screen fizzed out leaving only the audio. I thought the software was just crashing like fucking usual and since it was 1am i left it to go to sleep for work

i come back home today, try to plug it in using the same routine. nothing

The headset connects with the USB, but upon plugging in the dataport connection it will flash all green and then a few seconds later reports that there isn't a dataport connection (despite the fact its obviously registering something happening every time i plug it in).

what was just a simple annoyance at the sheer lack of quality control has now turned into a complete bricking with no way to actually play anything. I'm about ready to throw in the towel and just fucking send it back at the cost of waiting likely weeks if not months to actually rectify the fucking problem and give me a headset that works (again at the risk that the shit doesn't even work to begin with)
