Could we get some clarity on whether CMF devices are included, and if so, the expected timeline for when users can try out Nothing OS 4.0?

JimmyPP

EEA-Builds are fixed.

Ritikk no mention of ‘cmf’ once in any of the rollouts till now, deeply shattered

Nothing played dirty with 3a users we should have received the update along side other devices this is not fair, But still if the wait is worth it there is no harm waiting

I hope Nothing is cooking something big for 3a series 🤞
