Today we are delighted to share that the rollout of Nothing OS 3.0 (NOS 3.0), powered by Android 15 has begun. Designed to embody Nothing’s signature iden...

before the update i could run games greater than 60 fps and 60hz by simply opening the game, putting it to pop out view and then double clicking to return to it and it would apply the 90 fps or whatever the game allowed.

with nothing os 3, i cannot do that anymore. my games are all stuck in 60 fps and 60hz. hope someone can help me.. thanks!

After updating to Nothing OS 3.0 the Bluetooth keeps disconnecting.

It connects, and after about 1 second disconnects, and then connects again and the process repeats until I turn it off.

I’ve tried restarting my Nothing (2) and forgetting the connections (Tried both with my car and earbuds), it did not work.

Rob ⚡️ I know it’s great for Nothing community to experience this NOS3.0 update. Yeah it’s great but it still forgot to improve the camera bugs. You can see my earlier posts for reference. And this is not only me but many other people are facing this same issue. We thought this major update would resolve this issue but there is no single improvement on camera. @Carl Please let us know when is this problem going to resolve.

Finally, it’s here! But it seems like a half-baked update. Most of the major Android 15 features are missing — even themed app icons are also missing.

Circle to Search seems to be available in the OS, but has been gatekept by the Settings app. Don’t know why they did this. The Settings app already has the code for enabling/disabling CTS, but it just won’t show up in the Gesture Navigation settings. I even found strings in the Settings app that say that the Hide Navigation bar feature needs to be turned off in order to enable CTS.

Even Private Space seems to be available in the OS, but just like CTS, has been gatekept. The Settings app has Activities to enable/disable Private Space, but they can’t be accessed.

I’m not too sure about the App Archiving feature, i.e., if it is available in the OS or not (it should be ideally), but the Settings app has some strings related to archiving.

Satellite Connectivity also seems to be available on the OS side. The Settings app also has some Activities related to it. But I don’t know if it works or not as I don’t think my carrier supports it. On Pixel devices, it works with T-Mobile in the US, so if someone uses it then could they please share if it works or not?

Other things like Themed App Icons, 16KB page size (available when searching), default Android equalizer (not sure if it has been removed by Google as well) are missing.

The “Powered by Android” badge on the boot up screen is still the old one whereas some of the other Nothing phones use the new badge with a capital “A” as per Google’s terms.
Changing the order of the ring, vibrate and silent buttons was unnecessary.
A new option called “Scanning for deceptive apps” is there but it turns off as soon as you go back.

Otherwise the OS is working smoothly without any hiccups. The new animations are nice as well and the lock screen clocks are great too! The new quick settings menu is also working pretty smooth. The Landroid screen saver also looks cool (thanks for keeping it).

Also, it would be nice if someone from the team could clarify why these features are missing from Nothing OS 3 and if they will eventually be available or not.

Note: Some of things mentioned above may just be code left behind by the Nothing team and which in reality would not be running at all.

Rob ⚡️ Hello, I’m from Italy and the update notification hasn’t popped out yet. Also I don’t know if my nothing phone (2) can upgrade to android 15. It doesn’t give me any updates at al

3.0 update was good, I love it.

However, there one thing Nothing team has completed forgotten to fix is the “music visualization.” It is not synchronising with the music since some update in the beginning of the year.

Nothing team @Rob ⚡️ please look into this. Glyphs are the essence of the phone, if this is not fixed then it is loosing its very essence.

Beta users, have you received the update to Stable?

I think all the errors and problems should be sent again via the feedback form. Many posts get forgotten here in the forum.

Rob ⚡️ The update, as advertised, appears to have a good design, but that hasn’t been the case for me. For example: the new lock screen clock has low resolution compared to the advertisements, the “Countdown Widget” is completely missing, the grid lines in Quick Settings are not of equal thickness, the swipe animation for Quick Settings doesn’t match the advertisements, and the new Mute button in Quick Settings doesn’t provide the right experience.

Moreover, the animations lack consistency. For instance, the AOD animation transitioning to the phone’s active state is incomplete and poorly executed, causing the clock to shift awkwardly on the screen. Similarly, the Home Settings animation deviates after the second tap, which is disappointing.

That said, the Gallery App is very well-designed, but please address the issues in this incomplete update and fix them in the next update as soon as possible.

Thanks

How can I remove the drop shadow of the date on the lock screen? There wasn’t any shadow like this in the OS 3.0’s lock screen pictures.
