Can it be installed by fastboot full ota without unlocking the bootloader, if I come from a lower version that no longer supports adb sideload? Am I going to upload to the 2.5.3 fix and then put the 2.5.5 And I wanted to install everything clean
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Adb sideload from recovery mode is bugged and not working since 117.

If you want to manually install a full ota you will have to do it from the dialer and for a clean installation you can format data (factory reset) after the phone rebooted with the update
[Nothing Phone 1] luiwii:
sí I already know that adb does not work, I mean by fastboot
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
For now no.

Maybe there is a way but for now you cannot update a locked phone via bootloader or fastboot mode.
[Nothing Phone 1] luiwii:
ok, thanks ...Then unlock manager update and lock again
[Nothing Phone 1] NightMean:
I have just installed 2.5.2 and the latest update is 2.5.5 for me so seems like there is another incremental OTA for 2.5.2 > 2.5.5

[Nothing Phone 1] 1stStep:
Updaded rooted NP1 from 2.5.3A to 2.5.5 with standard system updater App in settings :

Uninstall Magisk (large red button - choose "Restore images") - this keeps Magisk Manager installed for further "core" reinstallation.

Update NP1 with system App (Settings/About/Nothing OS) - don't reboot when asked.

Reinstall Magisk from the remaining Magisk Manager - choose "Install to inactive slot (after OTA update)", confirm, GO, then when finished get out of terminal-like mode with the upper left arrow, and choose first simple "Reboot" option in the upper right round circle arrow reboot menu.

You won :cowboy:

Thank you @AnotherM1m for faithful and kind support
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Great! you can also reboot while in terminal since magisk 27.0, just to skip an extra step!
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Hello!

Github is repeatedly banning Spike's and his repo

Unfortunately this means that the only right flasher script available for np1 is lost and present only as forks

I've made a program to solve this issue: TOTAL

Is still in alpha state and needs testing if anyone feels crazy enough.

For now it's a simple fastboot flasher: you select the full zip or 7z file, the program extracts it until it gets all partitions and flashes them.

It only works with unlocked bootloader ofc.

It's able to perform dirty updates, restores and custom rom flashing.

I know the extraction works, but i could try flashing on my phone.

For the future, other than a design overhaul update i'm planning a lot of new features for nothing phones

Check TOTAL

[Nothing Phone 1] ZerkerEOD:
I am having an issue with this. Does this mean the only way to recover and get root is to downgrade to 1.1.6 and then move up from there? I have tried the adb side load and dialer method but I am trying to go to 2.5.5 I think as it is the latest full OTA that I can find but can't find a valid way to flash the entire 2.5.5 image to then flash the modified boot.img. The link to Spike's archive is also broken so it no longer helps. Anything you can think of that would help?
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
New (which is the old) link to spike's archive

Let me know if you are able to flash everything.

You can easily root with the latest fw with the modified boot section in the first page. Just remember to boot, then direct install with magisk, do not directly flash it.

What exactly do you want to do? You want to install 255 then root it. Starting from which fw?
[Nothing Phone 1] ZerkerEOD:
I don't care what firmware I start with because I know I can upgrade. Just struggling to find a full ota file that I can revert to. If I can get the boot.img for the most to too date that would be the easiest.
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
spike's fastboot flasher with his 7z files of partitions is the easiest.

otherwise you need spike fastboot flasher then a full ota zip you can find in this thread, extract the file payload.bin within that zip then use payload dumper go to extract every img partition file.

Right now im developing a tool that would make everything easier, TOTAL:

just select what you want to do, select the zip file and the program does everything for you.

Note: This is not a support thread for issues you may have with Nothing OS ROMs. If you need help installing or updating, feel free to ask here. If you have any other issues, please ask in another thread. Regarding problems with PHONE(1), you...

xdaforums.com

but NEEDS TESTING: people using the tool, flashing a fw with it.
[Nothing Phone 1] ZerkerEOD:
That would be awesome! I've already broken down the payload and will try the flashing script. I guess I flash that then boot back into the bootloader then flash the modified boot right?
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Yes flash all the partitions from the payload but after that just BOOT the modified boot, do not flash it, otherwise ota updates become more difficult to perform.

After booting the modified boot img, open magisk manager, select install then direct install.

this will create a backup of your stock boot img that magisk manager can restore before applying ota updates.
[Nothing Phone 1] ZerkerEOD:
Thanks for that tidbit, I was going to flash it like I was used to doing.

2.5.6 just released!

Added to the first page
[Nothing Phone 1] Arunragav:
Hi everyone,

I'm currently running Paranoid Android Uvite custom rom with unlocked bootloader and magisk root. I'm planning to go back to stock Nothing os. I know boot.img and vendorboot.img is required for the process, but i'm little confused about the full stock firmware that is required. I can see Nothing OS 2.5.3A came with full ota and everything after that is only a incremental ota and not full ota. Should i use the full ota file to revert to stock or i can use incremental ota of the recent Nothing OS 2.5.6 to revert back to stock?

Also there are two different files, one is full ota file and other is fastboot firmwares, which one should i use?

btw i'm downloading files from this github https://github.com/quintenvandamme/nothing_archive?tab=readme-ov-file

there are both ota files and fastboot firmwares. Pls help which file should i use to revert back to stcok?
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
hello

if i were you i would go with spike's archive so you can directly flash 2.5.6:

Release Spacewar_U2.5-240612-2149_2.5.6 · spike0en/Spacewar_Archive

Spacewar_U2.5-240317-2245 (full) -> Spacewar_U2.5-240419-1617 -> Spacewar_U2.5-240612-2149

github.com

Download all the .7z and .7z.00x files from the Assets section and extract them so you will have all the partition all in the same folder.

such directory needs to have NO SPACES in its name or in its path.

Ex.:

YES: "C:\User\Marco\Desktop\fastboot_rom\"

NO: "C:\User\Marco\Desktop\fastboot rom\"

Download the fastboot flasher and place it with the partitions then run it.

GitHub - spike0en/Spacewar_fastboot_flasher: A script to flash Nothing Phone (1) stock OTA images via fastboot

A script to flash Nothing Phone (1) stock OTA images via fastboot - spike0en/Spacewar_fastboot_flasher

github.com

Remember to wipe data and flash logical partitions.

there is no need for you to flash on both slots or disable android verified boot.

attention: disabling avb will block you from performing otas since vbmeta partitions will not be stock.

on a sidenote, the difference between a full ota and a fastboot rom is that a full ota zip could be used if Phone (1) had a working sideloading recovery, which it does not have.

so the preferred way to go back to stock is via the fastboot rom with spike's one being the most secure and tested.
[Nothing Phone 1] Arunragav:
Thanks a lot 👍
[Nothing Phone 1] Arunragav:
So this Spikeoen fastboot flasher is just a batch file? Download all the assets files from https://github.com/spike0en/Spacewar_Archive/releases/tag/2.5.6 then put this batch file for windows inside this folder that contains all the assets files and just run the batch file? it will do everything required and it has all the scripts?

No more extracting boot.img vendorboot.img flashing them in fastboot mode and then flash the rom? This looks so simple... any idea why no youtube video has shown this method to return to stock? I searched and found none so just wondering why all people want to flash boot,vendor, rom etc in fastboot mode instead of following this easy method
[Nothing Phone 1] sp4ce:
hi, i tried installing the new update and accidently did it wrong so now magisk can't find the boot.img.

so i followed the instructions given in this forum and for some reason when i come to this command in my cmd with adb it gives also this error:

.\fastboot boot C:\...

and the error is

FAILED (Write to device failed in SendBuffer() (no link))

which is weird, my pc can find the device and if i try it again it takes really really long and i don't know if i have to wait longer or i'm just doing something wrong.

i did turn usb debug on and the settings for that

i did update all drivers on my pc for my phone
[Nothing Phone 1] dzjin:
EDIT:

Hello again,

OMG, I've made a horrible mistake lol sorry, my bad.

EDIT2:

Finally!! I succeeded in updating the phone simply by reading your awesome guide:

"Couldn't update - Installation problem / Error 20 / Installed failed"

Manually installed full OTA: 2.5.3.A I came from last A13 update and everything from there went smoothly.

Thank you mio amico! @AnotherM1m you're a legend!
[Nothing Phone 1] ayed78:
no 2.6.0 yet?
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Sorry people i haven't receive any update on the messages on this thread, i will try to answer while updating this message to everyone

Added 2.6.0 incremental, changelog, stock and magisk patched boot img

added 256 full ota.

It sounds like some bad cable, bad usb port on the pc. are you in bootloader mode (not fastboot, it does not work)?

Finding the device should not take long

Glad you solved your issue!

Yes, spike and his team went the extra mile with this script, it really does wonders!

Yt videos are not updated and many talk about what the older methods were which we went pass them a lot of time ago.

[Nothing Phone 1] spysky:
Hi all,

I've seen some post about people updating to 1.1.4 while on root successfully using this instructions https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/ota.html

However, for some reason I can't install the update using system updater/normal OTA.

Steps I've made:

1. Open Magisk, Disabled all Magisk modules.

2. Reboot (just to be sure all modules were off and did not interfered with the update)

2. Open Magisk, clicked Uninstall, then Restore images. (Toast message displayed saying original image was restored).

3. Open settings, hit update.

4. Error on updater, "Installation Problem"

As I never rebooted after "Restore images", I never lost root, so I was able to install it again on Magisk.

But does anyone know what did I do wrong for the updater to fail?

Thanks

Thanks @Sib64 , you are always most helpful across the forums, but here you missed the point. The question was not whether or not this OTA was available to download, but rather a discussion starter if it's worth to sideload it when obviously it hasn't been offered in all countries.

Hello everyone,

To all members who own the Nothing Phone (1).

I am looking for someone to take over my threads.

Indeed, I was thinking of buying the Phone(1) and that's why I wrote all its threads.

Since I don't own this smartphone, I can't see myself maintaining it and continuing to answer technical questions that I can't answer now.

This is why I would like one or more members to offer to continue the maintenance.

For this:

The member(s) must be active on the threads,

Have a minimum of knowledge about Android 12, or even 13.

You need to be available and regular. Not necessarily every day, but at least once a week, ideally 2 to 3 times a week.

You can contact me by PM only.

But it got so bad that i had to hard reset my device.. Realy annoying..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jbreese00:
This was happening to me on my Fuze so I did a hard reset and now it is fine. I would suggest doing that. Be sure to backup anything important (pics, vids, etc.) before because they will be gone on a hard reset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] eryeal:
Well this set a new record for me - 2.5 hours on the phone with Sprint Technical Support .. but, am very happy to say the problem has been fixed.

FINALLY I was able to get to someone (Level 2 Tech) that was actually determined to fix the problem, even though we couldn't replicate it right away. Turns out it is a rare problem that they describe as a "traffic jam" in the routing to my phone, and they ran what they called the "Text Message Plunger" (no I'm not making this up!) - and it fixed it completely, and texts starting coming through instantly and no problems since. It seems this is a known problem, albeit a rare one.

But if your texts randomly show up hours late - this seems to be the problem. But I can tell you - no one in customer service or Tech Level 1 could even come close. In fact, with my initial attempt at Tech Level 1, she spent 5 minutes on the problem, then she apologized for the "nationwide outage", credited me $60, and said there was nothing they can do until that is fixed. Realizing this was BS - called right back and finally got to a Level 2 Tech who seemed much more interested in fixing the problem.

So would recommend calling and immediately trying to get to the higher tech support. I'm so glad they were able to fix it on their end rather than trying to get a new phone, or having to do a hard reset.
