I was ready to go to the store with warrantee and have them repair my left speaker because it was making a crackling sound if i moved it, or if there was a lot of bass in the sound (like in music). I watched your video and saw how to properly reseat the contact pins (I already knew how to unscrew the speaker, but i didnt see how to properly fasten them carefully) and it fixed my issue. just.... bravo. thank you for all your help, i was getting really nervous about having to send it back to the manufacturer and wait for a month or so to get any possible fix.

    This is a great reference. Thanks Sebastian! I got my G2 working 45 minutes before this video released. I had to do a clean windows install (WMR would not install on my Windows 10 Pro N build) and buy a powered USB hub for the X570 workaround. I had to do the frankenfov mod for it to fit my face right. (Great idea Sebastian and a big thanks!) Now I just love this headset. I have been playing Medal of Honor (Oculus version over Revive) and it looks and plays great! I ordered mine through Connection on 9/3 and it arrived 12/15.

    I got my G2 yesterday, worked for all of 3 hours :(. I have a 2080 with a USB C port and it worked perfectly at first. I played a few games and then decided I was going to get my knuckles controllers setup following your guide. I got everything working but then the audio on the G2 wasn't showing up. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and got a 7-14 error. Since then I've tried it on 3 other computers, all get the same exact error. Two of those computers are Intel and one is my Threadripper machine. I tried using the USB hub in my monitor per some G2 threads and no joy. If anyone is thinking of getting one of these and they have an AMD X570 motherboard, I'd say don't bother! It looked really nice, almost no glare and great clarity when it worked. I was super excited about it. After troubleshooting for 6 hours, watching these vids, going to the forums, discord channel, and HP Reverb site I have concluded that this headset is NOT ready for primetime. KZreadrs are getting better hardware than they are sending normal people. I can't explain how they all still have working headsets. There are literally 1000's of people having issues with them connecting, audio randomly dropping out, screens going black constantly. Error after error and nothing seems to fix it. I suspect my cable died after the 3 hours I used it. It shows up in device manager and it says it's working, but it's not, won't even light up. I'm beyond frustrated with this thing. Me and my son both use VR, I have 2 Valve Indexes, 2 HTC Vives, an Oculus Rift S and for a minute I had a Samsung Odyssey+. All of them just work, no issues almost ever and never anything serious if I do have an issue. Very disappointed with this headset and cannot recommend it to anyone until after they fix all the issues with it. Before you tell me stuff to try, I've already tried everything, at least twice! I have a powered USB hub coming tomorrow that will probably be the nail in the coffin because I don't expect it to fix anything. I saw one KZreadr have an issue and they sent him a new cable which fixed his problem. Hopefully I get the same satisfaction.

However, after a couple of hours and me rebooting my PC, WMR starts automatically after logon showing me an error code 7-14 and how the headset couldn't be found. When looking at the breakout box, the white LED no longer is ON. Does this mean the breakout box is now broken only after a couple of hours usage?

Now, after loading up the flight an enabling VR, the MSFS 2020 screen comes up and then goes back to the Windows Mixed Reality Screen. On the monitor, I get the VR image that’s continuously flickering. I’ve updated the drivers for my 1080TI GPU, re-installed WMR, adjusted the VR graphics settings with no success. No issues flying in VR with X-Plane 11 with the same headset. Any suggestions?

When I press and hold the Windows button they power up and then in a few seconds they power back down. They never do connect. But yet they do show as paired. I have the X570 mother board and I tried the PCI-e to Gen 3 and it did nothing to fix the problem. And it's the only problem I have. Everything else works. And the sound is Awesome. I just can't get the bloody controller to connect. I am on Windows 10 with the latest updates installed. I"ve got Ryzen 7 with 64 GB of Ram. I'm just about ready to return these to amazon and I really don't want to. But if I can't get the controllers to work, what good is the VR Headset? I'm using the batteries that came with the controllers. Could that be an issue?

    So i downloaded LIV for seeing twitch chat in game. i also switched to the rechargeable batteries in the description before I watched any of this. after i got LIV working. My rechargeable batteries were charged. ( I got them that day. ) I switched out my duracell batteries for the rechargeable one and after that point I kept having problems with my controllers not tracking. If I left the controllers for a short time sitting still they would sleep then when I moved them again the lights would be darker than normal and wouldn't be tracking. I would then have to restart windows mixed reality with the controllers off then start windows mixed reality and turn the controllers back on. Sometimes they would be bright and tracking, sometimes they would still be dark and not tracking. While they weren't tracking the controllers wouldn't even show up on my VR screen but the buttons could be pressed ( pressing the trigger would shoot my gun in half-life Alyx, pressing the windows button brought up the menu) Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Never had the issue until I switched out the batteries. I installed LIV shortly before that so I was thinking one of those is the main issue.

    One comment, my G2 was doing a weird skip every 3rd frame thing after windows update or nvidia driver update etc.. not sure but rolling back didnt fix anything. I also will note i had the vorpx driver installed and removed that as well. HP I concur has zero support for this product. The only thing they offered was "depot repair" and sent me a box to ship it in... Low and behold I reinstalled windows entirely with the latest service pack or whatever they call it these days and it fixed it. So depot repair would have just been a waste of time and gave them time to break my headset.. 3 issues: 1. MRTV, per your G2 with Valve index controllers I did the same thing and it works pretty well. However your other video doesnt show that the steam guardian shows up with the index controllers. Mine does not at all and i nearly punched through my game shelf while playing blade and sorcery. Any advice on this? Also would like to make the guardian better or somewhat like my rift s where i can actually see it when i break the barrier. 2. I do mirror audio so i can output to a projector and sound system when friends come over. On my rift it was 100% in sync. On the G2 theres nearly a second delay between what I hear on my headset vs the external speakers. I need to disable headset audio entirely as it has an insane echo and makes it unplayable. 3. Lastly The G2 while within steam cannot reset view so I am facing the correct way. It doesnt do anything and occasionally I open the software to find my controllers behind me and 10 feet below me along with the floor. Apologies for the long rant but I am sure after your index controller video many other people may have these issues that could use troubleshooting help. Thanks

I have r9 3950x and 3080 so it can't be a performance issue... pls help..

    I am on X470 and I can only get my headset to connect properly through the USB-C port on my GPU. I verified the USB controller drivers and do not even have PCIe 4.0 so I think that it is more likely an issue with the chipset software. I have been having a crash almost every time I load in Half Life Alyx so I was hoping to use the motherboard port instead, in hopes that it will help.

    Have you already bought a headset? I would recommend buying something that’s base station tracked because pairing an inside out tracked headset (I’m using the reverb g2) with index controllers is an absolute pain in the butt. You’ll constantly have to re calibrate the controllers with the base stations, and the reverb g2 is not perfect (hence why I’m watching this video rn).

    Sometimes when I start windows mixed reality and it says look both ways then down the display will move and slant down to the right. I have to quit mixed reality repeatedly as it remembers the setting and most of the time restart my pc until it finally gives me a level display. After that it works fine but this happens quite a lot. I play in a seated position because of a handicap. Just today it started losing the volume then regaining it. It would show a speaker with an x then when it came back it would show the volume. Sometimes it would be every few seconds and others every few minutes. It also started saying there was a problem running at 90 fps and suggested 60. It also started saying it couldn't find it. I've had the reverb G2 for about 4 months. All these things except for the slanting to the right started today. Everything has the latest updates. I've tried different usb ports and even a powered USB hub. I will try all of your suggestions tomorrow to see if it improves. Do you know anything about the slant? Any help would be most appreciated.

    Hi Sebastian. Love your videos. I have an idea for a new G2 video for you. Many of us DCS players groan with its poor GPU optimisation and lack of Vulkan rendering support, so we end up having to pay out a huge amount on high end GPU cards to match high end headsets because of this. I haven't seen ANY GPU benchmarks comparing different nvidia GPUs - this would be really useful to see how different GPU's affect DCS framerate on the HP Reverb G2, and this will really help prospective buyers, e.g. going from something like an old1050Ti all the way up to a 3090 - with the same native resolution settings obviously! I appreciate it might take you some time swapping out cards! But it would be great. Keep up the brilliant work, You've helped me choose the best visual headset 3 times now over the years, Odyssey, Reverb Pro(G1) and now the G2. Thanks!

    Hi Sebastian. There are a lot of reports now about the small sweetspot and brutal sharpness falloff in the G2. Some say it might have to do with foveated rendering if the GPU is not enough. Is this something you are aware of? Or did HP send a batch with bad lenses? My headset is sharp in maybe 15-20% of the image, everything else is a blurry mess. I run it on 1080ti. Not the latest but no slouch either...

I will make a comfy nose cover by myself till they realease a official ultra slim one. Let me know if it works.

What program do you use to show the framerate/super sampling stats while in game? Also, I've been trying to use mods with Skyrim VR but can't seem to get them to work. Basically, the mods change the controller bindings and i can't figure out which any community bindings to use to get the game to work correctly. If you get around to modding your Skyrim, could you possibly post a video showing the mods that you end up using and how you get the controllers to work correctly? Thanks for all of the content.

    Get fpsVR from Steam. It's cheap and I use it a lot especially because I mod SkyrimVR (a lot). I'm not an expert but it's a good tool to have. You'll have to go into steam settings and switch to oculus bindings or download them from VRIK mod page and install them (I recommend installing that mod because it's really cool). After you have oculus bindings you may have to go into the VRIK MCM and swap X and Y buttons. You may have to go into the the steam binding settings and edit the bindings so the X button as the Oculus B button otherwise you won't be able to drop things from your inventory. No matter what you'll have to experiment with buttons to find out what they do... or not. Here's the reddit post I used to fix my binding issues. It leaves out the x button part. If the x and y buttons don't work right after that swap the buttons back. old.reddit.com/r/skyrimvr/comments/jrgwa4/hp_reverb_g2_arrived_today_need_hep_with/ I'm not great with instructions but I want to at least put you on the path. Definitely get into the SkyrimVR reddit as there's tons of info there and it's a great community. Look up Cangar for mod instructional vids. This video got me started with modding SkyrimVR I recommend it with his other vids. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oJeG1dBwoquxZbQ.html I hope this helps you.

I'm still gonna try the powered USB hub trick since I don't have any slots left for PCIE hubs and I don't wanna downgrade my PCIE generation since that's one of things that sold me on the X570. Should mention I'm running a 5800X with a 3070 with all four ports used (three monitors + headset). Dunno if any of that is helping but it's been relatively smooth so far.
