Intermittent Startup Crash on Quest Devices 5.4 Oculus Fork

Hello! I was wondering if anyone was having an issue where maybe 30% of the time an .apk on a Quest 3/3s/2 will freeze on startup.

-The app will never move past the splash screen
-You will need to press the power button on and off to get the headset to register the app as “not responding”
-You will likely need to do this process more than once to get it working

This is something that has plagued my app for several months right now, and it’s getting to the point where the business side needs a fix

Edit : I think the chance of anyone responding to this is pretty low, but I’m sure other people are having this problem.

I will continue updating with my findings as I chase this; my current plan is to keep stripping back the project until the only thing remaining is the engine. If I still have this error, I will post my findings

I recommend you test the VR Template first rather than stripping down your own game. That way you’d know if it’s engine before you start troubleshooting your own project. It also makes it much easier for others to reproduce the issue if they can just use the template.

This was the solution. We tested on VRTemplate and it would still crash.

5.5 Has since fixed this.
