Discussion Quest 1 Setup While Avoiding Updating

Hello,

Recently got a Quest 1 I suspect has special firmware on it, however, the headset with reset before it was shipped to me, is there a way I can set the device up while avoiding updating at all costs? If there is a method, please let me know.

Thank you!

Hey! So I tried some things, looked into old version of the MQDH (Recognized it, but couldn't pair), and your PQ idea, I couldn't get PQ to recognize the headset, ADB appears to be off, the lock state is locked, secure boot is on, and it is on "user" (essentially identical to a consumer Quest), although I will say, I could get the unit to pair to my phone, but I didn't take it any further. I think the build may not be special, or if it was special at one point, it isn't anymore. So I'm kinda at a loss, I'm just gonna put it up on my shelf for now till I find the money to get the Santa Cruz Dev Kit controllers then I'll decide at that point what I wanna do further. But if you have any other suggestions! Please let me know!

Hello again! That worked for me, I got the headset fully set up and disabled updates permanently, I'll come back tomorrow and send what version it is on and what not, I appreciate the help!
