Q3 black screen and fan breathing when plugged in.

okay so last night i have been playing modded bonelabs on virtual desktop with one of my buddies and things were alright no lagging , stuttering etc. then out of nowhere the screen just froze and it went dead black, i tried turning it on but instead of a audio prompt or anything , LED werent on , the fans just started to breathe, no sign of life what so ever.

WHAT I HAVE TRIED (failed of course)

1-hard rebooting by pressing down on the power button for 10 seconds.

2-tried to access the dev menu by long pressing the volume down and power button for 30-45 seconds.

3-checked the proximity sensor, nothing is wrong with it.

4-removed additional faceplates

5-drained battery using a shoelace (wtv works ig)

6-left it to charge for about 4 hours and nothing happen the fans just kept making alot of noise.

7-attempted to connect it to my pc via usb-c to use the update tool, didnt work it isnt even recognized as “Android” or “Meta quest 3”.

8- i have also tried “blip charging” where i plug in the headset for about 5 seconds, unplug and repeat until it boots up, didnt work.

I’ve been losing my mind trying to fix this all day yesterday so it would mean alot if someone helped me here, thank you.
