VR CyberDeck v1.2.8 — THE SASCHAKLICK FIX

> ACCESS GRANTED. JACK IN. OPERATE. DEPLOY. CONTROL.

VR CyberDeck is a cross-platform desktop deck for managing, sideloading, and uploading content to Meta Quest devices. It started as a fork of ApprenticeVR by jimzrt (huge thanks — the core engine is theirs) and grew into a full neon-terminal rebrand of the experience.

// CHANGELOG

New

  • Fix for issue #75 which i had no idea what it was about without any info, luckily saschaklick figured it out and posted a workaround which lead to the actual fix. TBH they did my job for me and made this very easy. Unfortunately, I didn't see their comment until about 30 minutes ago.... which leads me to my next project: DMP's Better GitHub Notifications.
## // HEADLINE FEATURES (Click to Expand - ITS A SPOILER!

[ LIBRARY ]

  • Bundled server defaults — works first launch, zero config
  • Card view and table view (table now stretches edge-to-edge in wide windows)
  • Persistent sort, density presets, 18+ filter, mirror management with public fallback
  • NEW / UPDATED badges driven off real lastUpdated timestamps

[ TRANSFERS ]

  • Up to 5 parallel downloads with live progress
  • Live // TRANSFER_BUS strip in the header — rotates through active transfers with name, stage, %, speed, and ETA
  • Unified Transfers drawer with stage-aware labels (Installing APK..., Copying OBB...)
  • Cyberdeck warns you with [ TRANSFERS IN PROGRESS ] if you try to close the window mid-transfer (works for both X and Cmd+Q)
  • Scan existing downloads folder, retry, clear-completed, per-item delete

[ UPLOADS ]

  • Auto-detect games on your headset that are missing or newer than the library
  • Local PC upload — point at a folder or a pre-made ZIP, no headset required
  • Full pipeline: stage → ADB pull APK → grab OBBs → metadata → 7z → rclone
  • Optional CRACKED tagging on uploads

[ DEVICE / ADB ]

  • Auto-connect Quest on launch, WiFi bookmarks for wireless ADB
  • ADB Shell with built-in quick-command shortcuts:
    • PERFORMANCE — pin CPU/GPU level, swap refresh rate (72/90/120Hz), reset texture
    • UPDATES — block / unblock the OS updater and Meta Store
    • SYSTEM — reboot variants, battery, storage, wifi, IP, proximity toggle
    • PACKAGES — list 3rd-party / all / current focused app
    • WIRELESS — tcpip 5555, adb devices
  • Custom user macros — define your own labelled pill for any command you spam (right-click to edit/delete, persisted across sessions)
  • Disable-sideloading toggle for safety

[ TRAILERS ]

  • Switched from youtube trailers to meta trailers... and back again.
  • No ads, no suggested videos, no subscribe buttons, no comments, no end-screen "Watch next" grid — just the trailer, then it stops
  • Autoplays as soon as you open the trailer drawer

[ INTERFACE ]

  • Glitch UNAUTHORIZED → AUTHORIZED boot intro
  • Matrix-style random g33ky_u$3rn4m3$ per session
  • Neon Hacker Console in the header (live SYS_STATUS readout — now properly fits the 88px header without clipping)
  • Font picker — swap Courier New for Console / Terminal / System Mono if the default is hard to read
  • Optional sound effects (drop-in) — drop click.wav, type.wav, or matrix.wav into your user-data sounds/ folder (no rebuild) or resources/sounds/ (bundled), and the UI plays them on button clicks, the boot-intro typing, and the ADB shell matrix load. Settings has a master toggle, volume slider, TEST button, and a per-file "✓ READY / — missing" status readout. Lookup order: user data → bundled, so you can override bundled sounds without recompiling.
  • Colorblind mode now covers the whole UI — version subtitles, filter counters, Transfers button, battery pill, breach animation all swap palette
  • Accent color picker, font scale up to 200%, tab memory
  • Compact, laptop-friendly layout (900x640 minimum window)
  • One-click log upload from Settings → Log Upload

Already on a 0.x build? It will auto-update.

// JACK_IN

  1. Install the build for your OS
  2. Plug your Quest in via USB (data-capable cable)
  3. Allow USB Debugging on the headset
  4. Browse the library and hit download

That's it. No server config, no rclone setup, no JSON to edit. Power-user knobs (custom servers, mirrors, rclone configs, PC uploads, ADB macros, sound effects) all live in Settings.

// FEEDBACK

// CREDITS

Built on top of ApprenticeVR by jimzrt. Without that foundation this project doesn't exist.

Special thanks to Rod — my crazy friend who believes in megalodons on Mars and gave me incredible feedback during the prerelease cycle.

And to everyone who tested the 0.x builds and reported issues — y'all shaped the 1.0.0 polish list.
