    Firmware (bot) โ€œYou can now directly set your network via Quick Settings without unlocking the device.โ€ is this a setting or just a changed behavior? i like to have the added security of having to unlock the phone in order to turn off mobile data.

      Will check and update on this
      Great work Nothing team!!!

      mayankdhaka If you are running 2.5.2, it shall be named under what your current Sound Profile is, ie Vibrate, or Mute etc.

      Give it another check if you are running the update.

        I am wondering, if the developers are checking the wishlist discussion ๐Ÿ˜„

        Also can someone check, if this update brings the January security patch?

        Rob,

        I suggest you to keep an eye on XDA forum, specifically on the development part. Currently very good kernel is being developed and have a lot of improvement over the current one ๐Ÿ‘Œ

          Ealesy101 i am on 2.5.2 but, where do i find this setting its not available in quick settings. can send some screenshots?

            This is a annoying bug in latest update.
            keyboard showing in full screen so cant really see what im typing
            Need to restart for a fixโ€ฆ @Rob โšก๏ธ

              mayankdhaka Can you please share a screenshot? I am not able to see it under Quick Settings under the notification shade nor under the Widgets section in Quick Settings.

              Rob โšก๏ธ Wow. Hope this feature is enabled soon.

              Very basic features are missing - Canโ€™t see song playing on AOD, Icon Resizing options as even lowest display size has the icons pretty big etc

              Wishlist discussion should be looked into by developers. Many basic features ought to be added in Nothing OS(have already mentioned them in the feedback form i submitted months ago).

              Guys Let us know the battery life scenario on this build (specially on 5G).

              Okay so after updating to NOS 2.5.2:

              • Optimised the display of icons in the status bar.

              I have not seen this change I am talking about the battery percentage not consistent like while i am using Font Size = Lowest & Display Size = Lowest.
              I saw that the size of battery percentage(numerical) is not consistent on normal screen & status bar screen & it is off on the normal screen, both the screens have different font size & differently aligned especially if you normal lock screen just look how weird it looks & this update just made it worse, I am attaching a screenshot to give you an idea & I have talked about this issue few days back but there was no reply from anyone & this is not what i expected from you guys.

              @Rob โšก๏ธ
              Please look into the matter the screen just looks very weird & I am attaching a screenshot so that you can have a idea

              Normal Screen:

              Status bar Screen:

              Thank you.

                Really great to see that there is no camera update given even after so many requests. Yes we all know Glyph is one of the major highlights of Nothing phone,but giving main priority to it is not a great thing. The camera is not upto the mark for a device which cost 40k INR. As a photographer Iโ€™m really upset with the camera performance.

                  Hi,

                  Please try to solve the issue with flip to glyph. Glyph lights not working for WhatsApp calls when in flip to glyph mode.

                  @Rob โšก๏ธ

                  Need hotspot connected devices information and glyph response to music are too slow comparing to 2.5.1 update. Glyph response could be better and fast for better aesthetic look.

                  this update did not fix the โ€˜do not disturbโ€™ bug. i keep getting notifications when the screen is locked despite the mode is on and wakes the screen. i dont get notifications when the screen is on though.

                  me and several other users are experiencing this problem: โ€œ

                  please fix this issue asap. please respond to this issue. i have filed multiple support requests and DMs.

                  Lockscreen is showing different colour tone compared after unlocking, can anyone confirm?

                  Itโ€™s easly visible if you turn on night light and max it. The lock screen almost turns red.

                    Iโ€™m addressing this for the 3rd time with a hope that the team will acknowledge it. The Camera of Nothing Phone (2) is average as compared to other phones in this price range. There so many features missing here and some of them are very much basic settings.

                    1. Night Sight On/Off toggle

                    2. Hdr On/Off toggle

                    3. Pro Video mode

                    4. Log Video mode

                    5. Anti-Banding settings

                    6. Focus Peaking

                    7. Timed Burst Shoot mode

                    8. Long exposure modes

                    9. Tap to focus struggles in normal photo mode

                    Auto Hdr mode is a mess and inconsistent. When taking group selfies the Hdr becomes horrible and most the time the output will be of no detail. So team please give Phone 2 users a major camera Improvement with these features.

                    Thank you.
