I wanted to install SideQuest on my Meta Quest 3, and since I couldn’t use the charging cable, I used a regular phone cable. When I tried to accept the ADB prompt, I heard a sound like something short-circuiting, and when I touched the port it felt very hot. I quickly disconnected it, burning myself a little, but fortunately the headset’s port is intact and the headset works perfectly.
After that, the headset got very hot, and I heard the fan for the first time. I felt the hot air coming out of the vents
Now my concern is whether my headset might have any damage, and I wonder if anyone else has experienced something similar and if their headset continued to function normally
I hope my headset is fine, and one thing is very clear: please do not use generic cables with your Meta Quest 3s
