I think NOS3 is well done. However, I find the buttons too big in the CC. Slightly narrower than Stock Android would look better.

The beta works well. But the camera still hasn’t been improved. It doesn’t take much for this smartphone to reach the level of the Pixel 7a.

To improve:

- more natural colors in both cameras. Candy colors are not good.

- extended night mode time. Let the night mode expose photos for 2 or 3 seconds longer. Then the photos will be more detailed at night.

- more details on rough surfaces, even at the expense of noise.

- improved stabilization in movies.

That’s all it takes to make this a complete smartphone. A camera at the level of the Pixel 7a is achievable. If you listen to the community, take this into account. No more improvements to portrait mode are needed. Thank you for your work so far.

Disappointed, I have waited for system font change option as all got most of these features from smart launcher app 🥺

Can the beta be removed without blowing up the phone? Heading on vacation soon and need Expedia to work. It opens and closes and opens and closes and fails to work.

edit: gonna put the 2a aside and use the cmf phone 1 for now. All good. really like both phones, but the cmf phone one has a 2tb MicroSD card in it with all my jams. 🤘

    Will the future updates to this beta version be online and automatic or do I need to format the phone again everytime? Plz advice.

    3. Due to our program setup, if you want to participate in OBT2, we recommend that you upgrade to OBT1 by the end of October.

      Natalie ✨ no reason but dot matrix font was the brand signature….removing it even as an option from everywhere and giving lockscreen animations and charging animations makes the whole ui very generic

          Rob ⚡️ We are looking forward to it. If we bring “true dark mode” in this update, we will make the biggest favour for our Amoled screens.

            I am using nothing OS 3.0 beta version for long time now! I am facing this issue since 2.6 version, whenever I on AOD on my phone, it work well but the thing is it’s very dim & it’s rarely visible to see I had tested it on direct sunlight and as well as in dark room too….did anyone facing this same issue?

              Hello Everyone,

              I have observed that after installing Beta 1 the phone is getting heated which was not the case earlier. Does anyone have the same problem?

                No heating problem but network fluctuations are takes place very high and my sim card also not work in sim slot 2 i discussed with airtel but they told me sim went to corrupt due to phone heating…

                chinmayDave As for now I am not facing heating issue, but it sometimes get’s warm while charging the phone!
