Unfortunate to see people with issues, so I’ll hold up once they’ve got resolved

Hey, I’m using a Nothing Phone (3A) (Indian variant) running Nothing OS 3.2 on Android 15.

Before the latest September patch, I occasionally had random notification delays on WhatsApp, Messenger,etc. I’ve already disabled all battery optimizations, sleep modes, and background restrictions. Haven’t used ADB shell mode tweaks yet.

After the update, the issue actually got worse — notifications now arrive with about a 3-minute delay. It’s still random, but this 3-minute pattern keeps showing up again and again. It happened to me thrice within a day. I’m truly at loss here about what’s causing it.

After the update, cancelling essential recorder before it starts when using the essential key will leave the glyph light on until I fully start an essential record it and stop it. Did anyone else notice this?

SoyVarghese

After the software update, the Glyph light remains on almost continuously. When I try to turn it off, there’s no response. The light only goes off when the device is rebooted.does anyone facing the same.

I have already contacted Nothing Support.

The good news is that the technical team has confirmed this issue.

It is expected to be resolved in the upcoming Android 16 OS Beta update for the Nothing Phone (3a) series, scheduled for release by the end of this month.

update today fixes this. I am fairly certain though, I read somewhere, updating the 3a series prior to 4.0 beta (so if you update to fix the recording today if pushed the update) you will not be able to enter the NOS 4.0 beta.

Someone correct me if I am wrong? Cannot find where I read this from initially

I attempted to apply this update, but after testing, the OMAPI issue remains unresolved and still cannot be used.

I’ll wait until after the Android 16 beta version mentioned by customer service before trying it out.

Update 3.2 was perfect for me (France, 3a 12go/256) ; Huge battery drain since 10 days, but after 3 complete cycles, the battery seems to return at normal state, before this update. Thx 🙂 (~7 or 8% battery with 1hr music (deezer HD) and google-ing.)

nishant-dwivedi same for me (in Ireland). Google pay no longer works 🤬 @Firmware (bot)

It may be that the firmware was released too hastily and Google’s certification was not completed before it was released.

Now Google’s certification is completed and it has returned to normal.

Google play not working in spain since last update

Edit: One day later, didn’t do nothing. It’s just working fine again.

Still showing as not certified for me

coolguydpak restart your device again. If it doesn’t work. Than remove all fingerprints whichs you have set on device. Than set again fingerprint.. it will work.. and also clear your screen..
