Anonymous931 those look so much like iOS that I want to vomit. If I wanted to iOS, I’d buy an iPhone.

Anyone notice the camera no longer keeps the on. Unless you poke the screen to keep it awake it turns it off after a while.

pandaarnesh Average simping freak spotted,

But you can’t spot a super-obvious sarcasm for some reason?

pandaarnesh nothing UI was itself inspired by previous stock Android designs, guess android changed and nothing stayed right there saying it’s our signature style.

Nothing UI look pretty much like stock current (minus gen or two) AOSP, with more polish. I’m using Android since 1.6, not a single one was looking like Nothing’s skin does. You are free to go through the whole list - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history - and find one similar. The closest one is 8.0 (but with totally different Settings, menus etc.).

Seeing issues in network detection. The places where I used to get weak signal, doesn’t show signal anymore. Frequently i see no network notification. But if I switch on airplane mode & switch then switch it off, mobile starts getting signal for sometime and I need to repeat it after sometime again.

RohithTony I do not feel any of that. May be I got Nothing 2a when it got released. Post that I heard that there are multiple heating and screen related issues.

Nothing should look into that seriously

Do I need to backup my data? Will it erase my data? As in the dialog, it’s asking to backup images etc.

AnishKushwaha_KxLL48gVkP it’s better to take a backup

There’s a bug in the notification panel when I tap on the bottom side of the music media, the notification panel refreshes and looks like it’s in reset/edit mode..
