[SOLVED] Charging Light Will not Turn On, No Response to On Button - Oculus Go

Anonymous
Not applicable

Just got my new headset, used it for about 15-20 mins and then plugged it in to charge while heading out for the night (charging light was on).

Came home last night and the charging light was off, with the power button not responding to anything.

Tested the Charger and Micro USB with other devices, which all charge other devices, just not the Oculus GO.

Any thoughts, ideas, tips here?

Thanks!

My Oculas go will not charge or turn on, orange light blinks sometimes....
The battery was dead, so the device shut down, now it won't boot up, or even charge. I know others are having the same issue, but it seems as though no solution was given, what's happening? can you help me?

Just to add to the solutions, pressing the power and volume down buttons simultaneously and then choosing restart worked for me.

Hey, I was playing my oculus for too long I guess and it died. So I charged it waited 20-30 minutes. Then I tried to turn it on, it didn't work. So I plugged in the charger tried to turn it on, it didn't really turn on, the oculus logo popped up for a few seconds and then it went black. I've tried all the solutions on here, but I just can't turn it on

Hi all , 
Same issue here , it looks like to me like some missbehabiour with the internet connection/oculus go android app.
I delete from android app the internet connection and start the oculus go.


Mine has stopped charging too. But sometimes I get a red light, sometimes flashing, sometimes solid, instead of the orange light but it’s not charging. Amazon is replacing it luckily because it’s still within 30 days of purchase. This is really bad that there are so many faulty units!

I was having the same issue. No charging, just a blinking red light. Then the light would stop, and nothing. So, I unplugged it and plugged it back in. While the light is still blinking, I held down the power button. Next thing I know, the light turns solid orange, and it started charging! I hope this works for you! I've only had mine 2 weeks. I hope this isn't a consistent issue. The lesson that I learned, part attention to the battery warning. Don't let it die while you're using it.

I have the same issue. Won't turn on again no matter what length/combination of button presses and charger attachement.
