Nothingnew

Saw the data of the hardware for the camera on the internet and all are great, the monitor and cpu are OK, ordered it, and then found out what it was. My mistake. Not blaming anybody. Wanted to try something new after many from Samsung and a few from iPhone (never again). Only blame Nothing for delivering great hardware with software that destroy the fine camera from SONY.

And : not one shop here sell the products from Nothing.

      It’s also available on Etsy and Amazon, but it’s a LOT more expensive !

      Just try out the multitude of gcams written for other phones with other hardware and see if it gets better; probably will not get worse. I am not going to install software written for another phone, but if you like to spend time that way - OK.

      If it goes wrong you can always reset to factory.

          nothingphone2001 Download on the internet and apply manually if you don’t want to wait. I see no change log about the battery drain and certainly there was nothing done for the camera. So this is more like a gimmick and not an important update. Don’t get your hopes too high.

            After using the update….it’s okay ig. Nothing broken,nothing insanely new.

            Let’s look on the bright side, atleast we got the security patches. Maybe it’ll take time to fix the camera problems and if they aren’t fixing it for the next 6months to 1year then yeah….we can assume that we’re screwed. Till then let’s see.

            Ealesy101 Have submitted the feedback thrice till now with requests of adding more customisations(Oxygen OS types), but to no avail.

                Okay, you have got really no idea about it😂
                First: Why you are talking about a factory reset? You just install an apk and If you don’t want to use Gcam anymore you just uninstall it. No need for factory reset.🧐
                Second: Try to use google and you will finde enough people saying that Gcam work pretty good for many devices. Also you don’t need a lot of time, cause Celso Azevedo offers a big collection with config files for Nothing Phone 1 and 2.

                    Or maybe they will not make anything with camera and np3 will be ,,improved" . Had high hopes for that product but it’s all a big mistake unfortunately.

                    lexlexus Caveat Emptor. I feel your pain, I really do. We all want our phones to be exactly as advertised and get all the latest improvements, but even flagship phones aren’t immune from glitches and bugs. Remember the exploding Galaxy Note 7 ? When/if Nothing get around to making the necessary software updates for the Phone 2, we will have a fine product. I don’t blame those who are thinking of bailing, but I think I’ll stick around and see what develops (a little camera humour there).

                        They just posted on their Twitter that the 2.5.3 update is available for the Phone (2) and will be slowly rolling out to devices.
