Hi Nothing Software Team,
I’m facing 3 software issues on my Nothing Phone 3a (8GB RAM / 256GB storage, black color), which I bought in Tamil Nadu, India on the release date.
Current OS: Nothing OS 3.1 Build version: Asteroids-V3.1-250417-1222-IND
Issues:
1. No call ending sound During normal phone calls, there is no sound or alert when the other person ends the call. Sometimes they hang up accidentally, and I continue speaking without realizing. I searched for settings to enable a call-end sound but couldn’t find any option. I’ve heard that older models like the Nothing Phone (2) had this feature, so it seems to be missing only in the 3a.
2. Call notification blocks the top screen in landscape mode When I’m in a call and using the phone in landscape mode (for example, while gaming or watching videos), the ongoing call notification blocks the top part of the screen. I can’t press buttons like “X” in games or other top UI elements. This is especially frustrating when playing games with friends during calls.
3. Auto-brightness issue in low light In dark rooms, the auto-brightness doesn’t reduce below 15%, which still feels too bright. I often have to manually turn off auto-brightness to adjust it lower. It works well outdoors in sunlight, but in very low light, it seems unable (or unwilling) to go below 15%, possibly thinking the screen would be too dim to see — but we actually need it lower.
We know the team is working hard on Nothing Phone (3) and other updates, but please consider fixing these issues in the next software update for the Nothing 3a.
Thanks! Your biggest fan, Asraf
