Does anyone know when it’ll be out on the UK and what you do if you’re on the beta? Will it just write over it?
Nothing OS 3.0 | General Release
So, after using OS 3 on my NP2 phone I can really see 2 areas where it needs an update.
- Font size is way to big. If you compare OS 2.6 to OS 3 the text and fonts is much bigger on OS 3, needed to be resized a bit. It looks really lame now, almost like your using a 720P screen.
- The always on display clock. On OS 2.6 is was in the middle of the screen which was great. Now its all the way to the top, just like Apple IOS. Much better in the middle, or make an option to position it where you’d like.
That is all, carry on :-)
bazsellers hey mate. Not sure but rollout for (2) and (2a) will continue throughout the rest of the year. If you’re on the beta, you’ll get the stable update and can move from there!

Thanks guys for the extraordinary efforts 
it was a hell of updates 
Just wanna suggest something, as it would be great if u considered the below as well:
- Transparency of everything (Notifications panel, App drawer, Folder view, etc..)
- Many and tiny dots would be better.
- Add Nothing system apps rather than Google’s (Phone, Clock, Calc, Contacts, etc..) just like the Gallery.
I miss my old clock
Review of the New OS Update on Nothing Phone 2:
The latest OS update for the Nothing Phone 2 brings several welcome refinements and new features, enhancing the overall user experience. However, one noticeable issue stands out: the inconsistency in the battery level display of connected earbuds.
When using the widget for the earbuds on the home screen, the charging level of each earbud is displayed accurately, which is a handy and much-appreciated feature. However, the quick settings panel tells a different story, showing a different battery level for the earbuds.
This discrepancy creates confusion for users who rely on the quick settings for a quick glance at their earbuds’ battery status. While the widget appears to work perfectly, the inconsistency in the quick settings panel undermines the otherwise polished experience.
Pros of the Update:
Accurate battery information in the earbuds widget.
General system improvements and new features.
Cons:
Confusing battery level display in the quick settings panel.
Suggestions for Improvement:
Nothing should address this issue in an upcoming patch to ensure consistent battery level displays across all interfaces. Until then, users may find it inconvenient to rely solely on the widget for accurate information.
Overall, the update is promising, but small bugs like these slightly detract from the otherwise smooth experience.

While i was waiting for the android 15 update, this quick settings layout kinda bummed me out. not the GUI , but the mere placement, its different a lot than advertised. Also the resizing isn’t smooth at all. Notice the black bars on both left and right side of the quick settings tiles. thats what i am talking about
If its a stable release please look into it. Glitches can happen. I restarted my phone twice after installing the update as well.
For those who are in a hurry to update 3.0, I suggest wait a bit more. I felt sorry after updating to 3.0 and wishes to stay in 2.6 until 3.0 becomes mandatory. I encounter 1 bug and it annoys me verily since I have to lock and unlock my phone to escape it. I contacted support and all they told me was to screen record if it occurs again. How the hell am I supposed to record if my home screen crashes? I can’t even tap an app, let alone open the control panels where the screen record is located 
They should have delayed the update release, or not call it STABLE. Can I roll back to 2.6?
christo_reese Absolutely right. I also think that they should have taken more time. I have the beta on the NP2a Plus and luckily there are only small errors. I hope that nothing improves it soon.
Yes noticed it yesterday when I paired my Sony headphones. I wish that we get the icons back by the time phone (1) gets stable update
Hi!
I Usually was happy about the releases, but Sadly, updated to nothing OS 3.0. The Bluetooth only works, after restarting phone. Then in the evening Nothing phone 2 doesnt connect to
Garmin Venu 3
BMW Audio
JBL headphones
Sony headphones
like, it can work for a day flawlessly, but then, suddenly you see Venu 3 is disconnected.. try to connect to the device, and it is not connecting. Then go to the car, and it is not also connecting. Then after restarting phone it will connect as expected.
What i should do? How can to fix? do i need to wait for a patch?
*i have another phone 2 and it has the same issues
Seems i am not the only one due to reddit post:
Hi Rob!
I am one of your huge fan of products, I first bought your cmf buds and got in love with it at how affordable rate the sound quality was good with such features. So I bought nothing phone 2a recently by seeing reviews that the battery of the phone is good and it lasts upto 8 to 9 hours sot. But, my phone didn’t even lasted for 5 hours sot, I have also taken it to service centre they have also replaced the battery, but now also there is not a significant improvements in the battery drainage.
After updated stable OS 3.0, most of the times dynamic and high refresh rate running like 60hz. After rebooting multiple times there is no solution. Don’t know what to do. So disturbing while using.

After OS 3 whenever i toggle wifi on or off either by lockscreen widget of in the quick menu there is a slight delay in the button turing red or white. It changes the color after a second but for a second it gives a sensation of doubt that did i click at the right place ? ( I am a user who toggles the wifi server times)
I didn’t receive 3.0 yet in my nothing 2a plus 
Hi, I just tried this multiple times on my NP2 but can’t really recreate this issue. When the screen is unlocked and I pull down the quick settings, toggling wifi on/off is virtually instant and the animation is showing it. When doing the same while the screen is locked, there is a slightly longer delay, maybe a fraction of a second.
