I disagree with @Sonixxone & @Eng.reham for heating part.

Initially phone was not heating that much. But from last 3 days I’m facing the overheating issue. Phone ideally stays between 38 to 40 degrees. Just after normal usage. That’s weird. Already shared feedback with Nothing. Battery backup is good. Lasts 1 day. SOT 8.5 hours, +/- 1 in some cases.

    I have noticed a decrease in battery life, specially with demanding apps with this update. And also I sense that the phone is heating more than before. I have used a tool to control CPU, GPU, and Battery Temp and everything has just raised 4-5 degrees more than the last update. Specially the GPU that is the most affected one.

    Is there anyway to get proper battery consumption as I have seen with other fellows NP2?

      mhdfirmus is there a video capture mode IN Expert Mode? Play around with camera app but couldn’t locate video mode, for faster preview after video capture =LOL , so unpolished phone zzZZ. Ty if you have answers to share. Cheers.

        All perfect. It’s like having a new Phone (2). I’m from Europe but i bought the phone in Thailand during a trip. Always perfect. Far superior than my old OnePlus Nord 2 with the horrible ColorOS (they still call it Oxygen OS).

        Battery backup didn’t change, i feel the phone smoother.

        Just a small issue with the network operator name, i just sent the feedback to Nothing’s team.

        PedroGarc_aCrevill_n Yep, dealing with phone heating is the worst. I’m seeing it too with the Nothing Phone 2 after the NOS 2.5.6 update. Apps like social media and media players seem to be causing the phone to heat up more and drain the battery faster.

        While the screen-on time (SOT) is still decent at 8 hours (only a 30-minute drop from before), the constant heating worries me. It could potentially damage the battery in the long run.

        The worst part? Nothing seems to be acknowledging it as an issue. They keep saying the battery drain and heating are normal! But come on, if the phone’s always above 40°C, that’s definitely not okay.

        Hopefully, they’ll take it seriously and release a fix soon!

        Firmware (bot) I had issue in opening the app through notification it’s being delayed after the update and also in telegram and WhatsApp the home doesn’t work quickly

        Does anyone facing issues with charging the phone 2 with official nothing charger?? When I tried charging other brand phones with nothing charger working fine but with phone 2 it is disconnecting continuously

        2.5.6 Updates 2.5.6 update is not installing on my phone 2. When trying to updating it shows downloading & installing then immediately it shows installation failed.

        My network was full. The charge was 100. I reset the phone and tried again. But the result is the same.

        After a while only the notification comes “couldn’t install system update”.

          I am facing touch random touch issue after this update

          Hey everyone, previously I mentioned a issue regarding battery drain.

          For now it’s solved for me , will let you all know if something happens in future.

          How I solved is by just factory resetting and this solved 2 issues.

          1. Rapid battery drain
          2. Purple screen tint issue is gone now.

            Firmware (bot) Camera improvements is very must .And also after 2.5.6 update charge draining issues are there . Without using also charge is draining 😕.

            BurpSuite Nice, it solved your issues.

            Usually, I reset my phone if the update is major (e.g. 2.7 or 3.0) or has a security patch. If minor update (e.g. 2.7.1, 2.7.2), just let it dirty. I mean not do anything lah.

            But, if I feel bored, even tho a minor update, I will reset it. IDK, maybe habit or something wrong with my head. hahaha

            When I use OnePlus, I play lots of custom ROM, but on this phone, feel too lazy to unlock the bootloader and play. Maybe I’m old and use stock, which is enough for me. 🤣
