hey @JUNOJACK

I own a hp reverb g2 omnicept which is very similar. I tested 2.93.5 and the current blender 3.0 beta and both versions work fine.

I would recommend you, to also test the 3.0 beta from builder.blender.org - because it uses a newer addon.

Another important info would be, which openXR runtime is active on you system. Does SteamVR start, if you start the VR Session? On Windows you always can also use the windows open XR Runtime. I experienced, that for some problems switching the runtime helped. And sometimes there was no active runtime at all, which would make it impossible.

Also the oldest trick helped me a lot, when VR runs into problems: updating the driver from the graphic card.

And maybe another info would be interesting: Can you check in the toolbar under viewport feedback the "show vr camera". After starting the session, is there a moving blue outlined camera in the viewport which also rotated, when you rotate the headset?

Hi @JUNOJACK,
The pink screen is a known issue with AMD graphics cards on Windows (see blender/blender#76082).
However, there is a fix (D12409) for this in 3.0 that will be included in the upcoming release.

Basically, using Blender 3.0, you need to use the SteamVR runtime: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/3.0/getting_started/configuration/hardware.html#steamvr

As for the position tracking, it appears in the screenshot that the Positional Tracking option underneath Start/Stop VR Session has been turned off. Turning it on should solve the problem.

Also great advice from @SimeonConzendorf :)
