But there’s good news for Oculus Go owners, at least—Facebook is unlocking the bootloader for the device and giving users full root access.

“We are going to make available an unlocked OS build for the Oculus Go headset that can be side loaded to get full root access,” Carmack said, noting that he had advocated for this option for years.

But in 2020, Oculus said it was discontinuing the device to focus more on the Oculus Quest.

Carmack said he expected the update would come from the Oculus website but didn’t elaborate on a timeline.
