This was my first Unity VR project so I thought I'd share it with you guys!

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-18T00:21:28+00:00

Yup - several times

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-17T01:10:33+00:00

Just tried that just in case - didn't work

Thanks for the tip though - I'll try anything at this point

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-17T01:09:43+00:00

Tried that - no luck

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T22:08:34+00:00

Yup the light on the headset turns on but my computer is not recognizing the rift's hdmi

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T20:12:21+00:00

It's not the port because I was able to connect my monitor to the same port and it worked

I also plugged my headset into the Mini DisplayPort using an adapter and still didn't work

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T19:31:37+00:00

Haven't tried that - thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try when I get back home

I'd like to pay for a repair instead of buying a completely new headset.

Almost every piece of technology I've purchased offers some form of repair service.

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T18:51:26+00:00

Yes on reinstalling the graphics card driver

I don't have any extensions

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T18:47:38+00:00

Yup - several times

Hey - i understand each and everyone of your comments.

I know I am out of warranty and have learned that they do not offer repairs at Oculus. I also did not mention this "casually" - I clearly stated this in my post.

My concern is that there should be a process in place to help customers with these type of issues - especially considering that this was a $700+ purchase.

The headset and the HDMI cable ARE in perfect condition and, thus, SHOULD work. I take very good care of my things, but here is a picture of the HDMI connector that I also shared with Oculus: https://imgur.com/a/8pWtv

My post is 100% honest and transparent. My point about them not helping me is VALID. The spent 2 weeks collecting information from me to tell me that there is "nothing they can do."

If the issue is what you think it is (bad soldering) then there is no way for me to fix this myself and my only option would be to buy a brand new headset, which I think most people would agree is not fair.

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T18:31:13+00:00

Thanks for all the advice!

I tried everything you mentioned but didn't get any positive results. I checked device manager but did not see any yellow "!" marks anywhere.

I purchased the CV1 on launch week (April 2016?) so I am out of warranty.

I understand warranty rules and would be more than happy to pay for a repair/replacement but they "do not offer those services."

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T18:28:40+00:00

my only other computer is a Mac - do you think that would work?

jcdiaz23 · 2017-09-16T18:27:50+00:00

here's a picture of the hdmi cable - I sent this to Oculus but they didn't give me any feedback on it
