JeffiEdward

Even after 2.5.5 update, the night mode still doesn’t work in lock screen. This is one of the items listed under bug fixes, but pity that the bug still exists 🙁

“Fixed an issue where the Night Light feature was ineffective on the lock screen.”

MillBurry

No update here (Australia). Yes - can we please get a file to flash?

TNPL

MillBurry - Sadly no update in Poland as well. UD 2.5.4a was almost instantly sent to my phone this one however is lagging behind. Maybe it was halted because beacuse of user complaints?

Nothing team.

Respected all,

I would like to draw your attention that the recent update released for nothing phone 2a were totally useless. I have seen many comments of the buyers and those update didn’t make any difference for them too The UI is still jitter and some app jitters too while opening it.

Especially, The updates for camera was horrible. Over saturated photo is seen. The human face is like a ghost. Motion pictures are impossible to take as the image processing takes decade of time and the image will be blurry.

I just want a simple phone which decent Performance, camera and looks.. i don’t know what you are doing in your offices. But we are suffering alot bcoz of pathetic camera performance especially “ hold you phone” while taking picture. Flairs are visible. Whitish picture to be seen. But if the object is still and the lighting conditions are perfect then it takes good pics.. then only.

Kindly understand our frustrations and helplessness. So, Please release an update which resolved the above issues.

Thanks

From your,

Frustrated customer

I’m not sure why people are still asking for this update. It’s buggy you shouldn’t get it. Be patient and wait for the next one.

If you flashed it manually and you don’t like it, then you messed up.

On the other hand, Nothing needs to acknowledge things are being worked on. The user experience does not end at unboxing the phone starring at how shiny the phone is.

AakashDev_3opYbToDSZ VERY BAD UPDATE HDR videos jittering and lagging a lot… kudos to nothing team phone 2a performance degraded💔

If the update has made the phone worse (I don’t know as still not available on my device and I’m not side loading it) I would suggest giving feedback via your device (Settings > System Settings > Feedback) to let Nothing know as I don’t think reporting it here will make any difference.

The update has not been pulled, I just got the notification on my phone.

TNPL

Stringfellow_hawke Updating now as well

Schippie

Stringfellow_hawke What’s your experience with the update so far? If all the comments here are accurate, it should’ve exploded your phone by now due to lots of new bugs. I haven’t gotten the update yet, so can’t really comment.

AakashDev_3opYbToDSZ after this update my phone nothing 2a shows heating issues as well as battery drain issue is there.

UnknownUser_ZjYrq9onjT

Firmware (bot) optimise the charging speed…it’s taking more than 2.5 hrs to charge my 2a via CMF GaN charger

SamipShah

Support for 3rd party chargers is only partially fixed. My phone 2a now works with my 25 watt pd power bank but still does not work with my 65 watt ubon pd charger. Please fix it ASAP.

How was the camera quality for all of you before the update?

Because I am really disappointed with the current camera performance (2.5.5).

neikees

Bad update… nothing change on the speed of the camera saving the photo…. feels like getting slower when processing.

Quite useless to use to take photo… cos every time taking group photo or friends’ I need to keep waiting to see the preview… and everyone just waiting…. 🙁

neikees yeah, so far I am enjoying phone the more I used and explore and interact by adapting my old phone habits to this new Big, Heavy NP2a … for past 20 days usage.

The no. 1 most irritable ‘slow time waster’ is the camera photos and videos ‘animations / processing blurry to sharp end images’ v v slow for a modern 2024 phone.. i cannot believe it. Takes 2-3s per preview

yea, not all imperfections are equal. I kinda regret buying this phone .. =[ , **gotta rethink, rebudget a 2nd phone – which ofc NP doesn’t care since it has already earned mine. darn! crap! "oO

For its price in 2024, it’s ridiculously value, but … camera snaps processing photos+videos is a CORE expectation of smartphone users, unless it’s a low low 10% bottom priced smartphone, which ofc NP2a is not!

Stringfellow_hawke

Schippie Well so far, still got all my limbs.😅 Can’t say much yet, did the update and let it charge for a couple hours to let it optimise first. But first impressions, performance wise seems fine to me.

Schippie

Just installed the update, finally arrived for me too. Not seeing any bugs so far. Photos seem fine, YouTube 1080P HDR seems OK, no heating of the phone. I did reboot after updating though, perhaps that helped. However, there were a lot of reports in this chat, so if some of you could please share your test cases I can try to replicate.

ThejusPradeep

Schippie I am unable to watch 4k hdr videos after the update and the camera seems to be degraded
