when realesed open beta 2 & stable update on nothing phone 1 ? Any specific date givinen by community of nothing
vikaskumarverma098 No, not at this time.
mahendiran_tkd_india illa bro… no issues
Before the latest update screen on time with high usage (no gaming) and higher refresh rate and adaptive brightness was 6.5-7 hours but after update 2.5.1 screen on time has reduced by nearly 1 hour with similar or lesser usage.
The battery has been an issue since a long time, something is not right, and you guys should really focus on this big issue.
With my previous phone I could arrive home and still have more than 60% battery, I use mainly X “twitter” and whatsapp, the data is connected all the time.
Adaptive battery could be the problem, but also the screen refresh rate, how can you guys be so sure that the screen is really working with the so called dynamic refreshing rate? Please investigate this.
Thats good
Carl Hi Carl, i have updated to 2.0.5 on my phone 1and from then it started into ‘Nothing Crash dump mode’ . Service centre is asking me to replace the motherboard but my device is out of warranty now. I bought the phone with ny hard earned first salary and the phone now became useless. Please help me out!
brajbliss @RochelMiriamFreedman along with these issues. The battery backup is terrible and it is worse than last update. It has never been good on Phone (1) but this is even worse.
And the ram management sucks honestly. It keeps closing background apps again and again and resetting phone wallpaper and themes.
Found an Issue with adaptive brightness not really being adaptive. Indoors it’s at 13% and outside it’s at 100%. Refuses to learn preferences for brightness and dimms/raises to above mentioned values again a few seconds after adjusting brightness.
nirav09esf Did you do the installation?
For Beta should we do buck reports like normal: Under System>Feedback?
Dear Nothing Team,
After updating to Beta 1 of Nothing OS 2.5.1, I encountered several bugs and issues that I’d like to bring to your attention:
1. The Atmospheric Wallpaper effect consistently reverts to a normal wallpaper.
2. The theme color does not apply uniformly across all OS departments. For instance, selecting a monochrome color may not change the notification panel color to match the chosen wallpaper.
3. The pedometer occasionally registers extra steps, counting more than the actual steps taken (e.g., registering 5 steps for a two-step walk).
4. The double-tap lock feature sometimes gets stuck and behaves as if the system is hanging.
5. The music widget occasionally appears blank.
6. During sleep mode, the phone takes an extended time to wake up.
Additionally, I have a few suggestions and tweaks to enhance the overall aesthetics and functionality of the operating system:
1. Include an option to adjust icon size in the customization section.
2. Add an adaptive brightness icon to the notification panel for quick access.
I hope you find this feedback helpful in further improving the user experience of Nothing OS. Thank you for your attention to these matters.
Best regards,
Manoj Barwar

This is due to the atmospheric wallpaper feature.
Another major!!!! Issue is with 5G. It can’t handle 5G anymore. Battery drains like it’s the flash and phone get’s extremely hot. I can’t even hold it.
My SOT is 43 mins. This is absolute madness. All the battery drain was from 5G.
suggestions to add some critical basic features before stable release of in 3.0:
Auto DND when screen recording so we didn’t accidentally record any notifications.
Bits instead of bytes as an option for the internet speed meter.
Can’t see which devices are connected to hotspot but only number of devices. Add a list to allow or block them as in all other ROMs.
Option to disable bottom bar with the hide keyboard and change input options as it takes too much space.
I have a question, I have a question about how stable the beta is to be able to update. Is it that the nothing OS is giving me errors, because I don’t have Android 14?
Rob any news about stable update??
