Phone (2a) - OS3 Beta Discussion 🗣

Rob ⚡️ · 2024-10-08T09:00:00+00:00

Hey everyone! To help keep things organised, we’ve created this thread for all of your comments and discussions on our OS3 Beta on Phone (2a). To clarify...

MahelaMunasinghe

Jay well say I’m holding the phone in my hand and the finger accidentally touches the screen, the screen turns on and then the same problem arises.

Double touch to wake would solve all these issues.

As a workaround , I tried disabling double touch and enabling raise to wake. But raise to wake is far too unreliable. It only works about half the time when I take my phone out of my pocket. It usually just stays locked.

Well… I don’t know… I like the single tap, I’ve never had any problems. But it would be great to tap on the lock screen and switch the smartphone to AOD mode.

Jay are you using another gallery app?

Jay

dKush nope. just files.

We want a option toh can’t turn off or restart your phone from lock screen please bring that option if want to restart or Power off from the lock screen you need to unlock your phone please bring that option for security

MahelaMunasinghe Yes I am currently facing this problem very frequently in my daily life! Nothing OS team should change it to double tap to wake in lock screen, because of single tap it accidentally turn on the phone and turn on the widgets in lock screen. They should looked after this issue!

J.N.A

Rob ⚡️ I have two request:-

1. PLEASE keep an option to keep the N-DONT font. I liked the new font but as an old community I really miss those & also those fonts were really a stand out feature or look I would say.

2. In Q.S when its in light theme its really hard to distinguish b\w whether its om or off specially at out doors. So if possible change the colour into RED as it also follow the nothing design lang.

RubienCharcos Nothing can make dialer, gallery, music player, notes, calculator all as default stock apps and can replace with Google apps. Every phone should have their own products style with good interface rather depending on Google apps

RubienCharcos

Heera I never said they could not, should not, or must not. I am not against of Nothing making their own apps. All I wish and pray is that there is an option for us Google Apps users/dependents to choose whether we like the Nothing Apps or the Google Apps to be the default apps, and if we choose one over the other, the other one will not be installed like bloatware.

@Rob ⚡️ Will the Nothing Phone 2 receive the beta 2 update directly in November, or will it first get beta 1 and then open beta 2?

Jay

Animatorakash you cant get into beta 2 , you must be enrolled with beta 1 to get in beta 2.

Heera

There is no colon in between digital time widget. Looks like it’s a bug

AnshJain_Jbxn3FFRFW

nothing should make a dynamic island just like every other company is making coz this feature enhances the usibility of the notch area as well as gives an upper hand in switching between apps in ni time . I would request nothing to please make a dynamic island and release it in the stable builld

mafcarvalho

AnshJain_Jbxn3FFRFW You guys insist on making Nothing OS a copy of Apple iOS and that’s a horrible idea. If you desperately want a feature that only exists because Apple can’t hide their face unlocking sensors properly, go to Google Play Store, search for “dynamic island” and install one of the apps. Problem solved and Nothing can continue to do stuff that really matters.

Jay

ahm may be, coz if we add colon in it with same font, its gonna look terrible, 2 squares in between…

Given the 2(a) and the 2 are different devices with different chipsets (and given the way software testing works), I suspect the Phone 2 will get it’s own Beta 1 to start with, hopefully with some of the lessons learnt from the 2(a) Beta 1 and Beta 2 releases.

Anishvl

tebygraves hope carl get inspire from oxygen OS 15

vovan-v

Anishvl oh no it’s so bloatwer system that becomes like hyperos.

Shubh

Hello dear community, dear family! 👋❤️

My name is Shubh, I’m from India 🇮🇳, and through this community, I’ve seen all those great creations, all those amazing submissions. I must say, I liked every one of them in each part. 🙌✨

But I would like to suggest some major features or bugs 🛠️ that need to be kept in mind for the Nothing team. I would love to contribute to Nothing for future updates! 🚀

Here are my suggestions:

1. 🪞 Mirror live wallpaper for the lock screen

2. 🔋 Add battery saver option for AOD, so it saves power by going to sleep if no one is watching

3. 🎮 Fix game recording feature — it’s not capturing sound currently

4. 📱 Control panel resizing with both swipe/tap gestures

5. 🅰️ Give a choice to change the UI font, so users can apply a Matrix-like font throughout the interface

6. 🖼️ AI image generation for creating custom wallpapers

7. 🔗 Create a Connection App similar to Apple AirDrop, but optimized for Nothing devices

8. 📂 Optimize apps to “archive” when in the background and “unarchive” when opened again for fast and efficient usage

9. ⬅️➡️ Long swipes from the edges to switch apps easily

10. 🔘 Fix click-to-start feature — sometimes it doesn’t work, forcing me to use the power button

11. 🌿 Add an energy-efficient mode for better battery life

12. 📲 Touch-to-transfer files feature

—

I hope these suggestions contribute to an even better future for the Nothing ecosystem! 🌟 Let’s make things better together! 🤝

Anishvl
