I'm having the same issue. I tried everything. Resetting my headset, computer, and oculus app. I even redownloaded oculus app and factory reset my quest. Nothing has helped, it's all the same. oh yeah I also turned off overlay in geforce experience and updated drivers.
I also tried everything, including reset oculus to factory defaults ... what version of firmware are you on oculus? Also what windows? Maybe we have a common denominator.

I've seen a few people have had success with disabling GeForce Experience Overlay however, I've never had this enabled and still have the problem. I've tried a couple of cables (including the one suggested by Oculus). I might try a full reset at the weekend and see if that works.

Hey Guys,
I had been having the exact same issues. At first I thought it was my wire as I got a different one from the Anker one recommended but the GeForce issue was what was causing me problems.
I had updated all my drivers and restarted a bunch of times. At times I did get it connected and working, if I unplugged the cable and replaced it, it would return to black screen.
This is probably because after a reboot, GeF Exp didn't have a chance to start up correctly.
I would ensurer your drivers are up-to-date, disable overlay, and restart both.
Able to connect without a single issue.
Just want to say thanks to who found this to be the problem and posted it here. Been following this thread for 4 days hoping for the answers and here they are.

I finally found the problem and got it to work on my setup. First to help debug you need to check the oculus app logs on your pc. That will be under youruser\AppData\Local\Oculus, file of interest(log) there is (last by datetime) Service_2019-11-23_14.20.00.txt (where I found my problem). Also on interest there is Compatibility.json where is all the hardware listed (of interest in my case was blacklisted).
Now back to my issue, it was due to USB controller, I found in the logs this:"Compatibility_str": "BLACKLIST","Name": "ASMedia USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0.96 (Microsoft)",
Then I check in the Compatibility.json this:
"UsbBlackList": [ .."Vendor": "ASMedia","PID": "1042","OS": "Any"I've checked in my devices and I have the "ASMedia USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller" and that's that. I don't know why that is not supported. Luckily my Nvidia card has an USB C (3.0) port and I got an adapter to from C to type A female (usb 3 compliant) and it worked. Even with a cable made of three segments a little over 3 meters, since I don't have yet one long enough.
Long story short, it was the USB 3 controller not compatible/ black listed. You can check the json file/logs to get a hint what is wrong.

Ahh sorry, there is a bit of information in the issue and I'm a bit on the rush.
Basically, my problem was due to USB controller in my desktop not compatible(black listed by Oculus).
Check in device manager, Universal serial bus controllers (look for USB3) and see if yours is listed in the bellow black list. If so you will need use another usb controller, I used the one I have on the NVIDIA card, or buy one."UsbBlackList": [{"Vendor": "VIA Labs","PID": "Any","OS": "Any"},{"Vendor": "ETron","PID": "Any","OS": "Any"},{"Vendor": "NEC","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_7_SP1","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "Renesas","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_7_SP1","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "NEC","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_8_0","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "Renesas","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_8_0","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "NEC","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_8_1","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "Renesas","PID": "0194","OS": "WIN_8_1","Comment": "t15565352"},{"Vendor": "ASMedia","PID": "1042","OS": "Any"},{"Vendor": "Texas Instruments","PID": "8241","OS": "Any"},{"Vendor": "AMD","PID": "7814","OS": "Any"}]
when it comes to that. Under the universal serial bus controllers, the only ones I have is Amd, ITE, Nvidia, and Usb Root hub. Since the amd one is blacklisted what do I do?
