Beta testers got the stable build of 1.5.2 with Android 13 a few days ago. But there are no official information yet regarding the rollout to the rest of users. The changelog of Android 13 indicates important improvements in the software.

Nothing starts rolling out a stable Android 13 update for the Phone (1)

The second beta was released a month ago, now the latest OS version is ready for prime time. CEO Carl Pei commented on how much battery life is improved by it.

Hi everyone I want to clarify if someone has the same problem on Android 12 nothing os 1.1.8 (same Android 13 nothing os 1.5.1)

flip to glyph function does not work.

It works out only if you noticeably raise the front of the phone (where the camera block is), the transition between firmware and hard reset did not help. Bla attempted to calibrate the accelerometer, but also did not give results.

Has anyone encountered a similar situation and is it possible to somehow solve it?

Only when tilted this way does the function work.
[Nothing Phone 1] misiek998:
Can you try without phone case? Maby your sensor isnt placed correctly, and you need contact with service center
[Nothing Phone 1] RaZoR979797:
Most likely the matter is in the sensor, because without a cover the situation does not change

Is there any way to solve this without a service center? As there are none in my country
[Nothing Phone 1] FadedSaint90:
Any chance rolling out the stable version within a month? unfortunately I bought the phone after registration window for beta A13
[Nothing Phone 1] zan.:
Tomorrow Nothing will probably make an official announcement regarding the rollout of Android 13.

Received the stable Androind 13 today. I have noticed the following :

The lock reen shortcut for device controls does not appear in the lock screen when I select it from the settings. The other shortcuts for the lock screen work fine. Is this a bug or it is just me?
[Nothing Phone 1] dedors:
device controls does appear for me (except right after a reboot).

However, none of the shortcuts are working for me at all.
[Nothing Phone 1] b0uncyfr0:
Hmm, my wifi performance is really not good.

My S9 on Wifi N pulls around 170Mb a sec and the Nothing phone cant even hit 100Mb.

Is there a setting I'm missing..? Wifi perf cant be worse than a 4 year old phone.
[Nothing Phone 1] dedors:
Speed is fine for me with Wifi
[Nothing Phone 1] b0uncyfr0:
I just watched Marques brownlee's review and I gotta say, he's right about the glyph lights.

It needs more customisation. There's no way to tell what alert came In or what's it's for, just that something happened.

Are there any improvements on the way regarding that? Or any software that allows us to customize?

Hello Guys !

Context:

I recently updated to Nothing OS 1.5.2 from 1.1.8 EEA

(Couldn't find the right stock boot image to update via OTA -> Version mismatch/Installation failed)

I then tried to rollback to an older Version (1.1.3) from (1.1.8) to an "update through the OTA till 1.5.2" to try getting back to a stock Rom-State.

I installed boot and Vendor_boot.img from 1.1.8 EEA which did not work and left me in a Fastboot-bootloop. As an last Option i downloaded the Nothing OS 1.5.2 Fastboot Rom.

At install i noticed, I can't unlock critical partitions to flash the Full ROM but the Phone works without flaws since 2 Days.

Question: Does it make a big difference if critical paritions aren't flashed ?

(I have had bad experiences with updates not completly installed)

Best Regards

Alex1911
[Nothing Phone 1] TheNewHEROBRINE:
Why can't you unlock flashing of critical partitions?
[Nothing Phone 1] Alex1911:
It is not allowed for me to unlock critcal partitions.

command: fastboot flash unlock_critical

It says something like "not allowed" when i try to unlock ot via fastboot command, can't tell why.
[Nothing Phone 1] TheNewHEROBRINE:
Check if OEM unlock is enabled in developer settings. Also note that fastboot flash unlock_critical will reset your data. Otherwise, you can try flashing the missing partitions from fastbootd (not normal fastboot!) without unlocking critical. To enter fastbootd you can use adb reboot fastboot.
[Nothing Phone 1] Alex1911:
Thanks ! So if i flash critical partitions via fastbootd then i could prevent a factory reset.
[Nothing Phone 1] TheNewHEROBRINE:
I'm not sure if you'll be allowed to do the flash. Just try, at worst it will just give you an error.
[Nothing Phone 1] Alex1911:
Tried to flash full Rom today, works in fastbootd via command adb reboot fastboot.

Thank you for your help !

Best Regards

Can anyone consult me about stock 1.5.2.

I removed updates for default clock app, and now this is simple stock Google clock. Is it possible to return np clock app without factory reset?
[Nothing Phone 1] SirLazyCat:
Sorry if someone else had asked this before, but after sideloading an update, I can no longer get normal OTA update? Because I sideloaded 1.1.7 and 1.1.8, and when I do the check for update in the setting, and it just said I am up to date

Here is how to turn on Flip to Glyph !

For those who are not able to turn on the flip to glyph on Nothing Phone (1) even after trying restart and factory reset. I bought them on 15 Jan' 23 and mine didn't worked either. With the latest updates still it wasn't working. Here is how to do it.

1) Open phone dialler, type *#*#0#*#*, CIT menu will open. Find all the options which has sarsensor, compass, gyroscope, accelerometer, distancesensor & the most important sensor calibration.

2) Now one by one open this options and follow the steps written there. If you have followed the steps correctly and getting back to the main menu it will say PASS, if not pass then try again and wait for the result if all okay manually enter PASS.

3) Once done with all the steps especially for the last step sensor calibration which requires to put the phone on a flat surface ( preferably on a floor or table) and wait for the sensor to be recalibrated. If the result is PASSED then you are good to go.

4) Go to Glyphs interface, turn on Flip to Glyph and it will work for sure if followed all the steps correctly.
[Nothing Phone 1] RaZoR979797:
Unfortunately, it did not help, when trying to calibrate the sensor, lying on a flat table, the sensor still shows that the phone is not lying flat and the test fails.

Through third-party applications, tode is not calibrated

[Nothing Phone 1] VKPM_III:
Hello, guyz!

Does anybody know, how to set up a fast access to Phone Dialer? I know it's fast, but it is still no as fast, as it was on our old phones. I have my contacts in default dialer and i have them as a separate app. I just want to see a numeric keyboard when i open a Phone. Or maybe you could advice some side apps? I tried to finde one, but all of them are the same of different color. Thanx in advance
[Nothing Phone 1] goomStar:
Hey folks, just a quick question to verify my research so far:

Is there a usable recovery for the NP1 out there, that allows easy pushing/pulling of full backups (like TWRP for literally any other device)?

For me it looks like the manufacturer did set up the phone in a way that nobody really has an easy option/access for that task. I'd like to upgrade to A13 but I would really prefer to have a solid method of just pulling an image of the current state of my phone.

So is my general impression correct, that we don't really have a usable recovery system for NP1?

Thanks :giggle:
[Nothing Phone 1] noufalps:
Hi,

After updating to Android 13 in my Nothing device, I am facing issues with instagram reels. Reels are not scrolling, I tried clearing cache, user data and uninstalling and re installing the app. But this is not solved.
[Nothing Phone 1] goomStar:
You might want to check if you are using a beta version of Insta. Check in Google PlayStore if you are on the beta channel.

If so, switch back to the regular release channel / unsubscribe from beta channel.

That solved many other issues with Meta-Apps aswell as refreshrate, black screens, crashes (y)
[Nothing Phone 1] cibai7181:
Hi, want to ask some questions

1) What is your step to do an OTA update, so you won't lose the root and have to redo it again?

2) What app/module do you use to hide app root detection
[Nothing Phone 1] Sakenkz:
Hi,

Sorry if someone else had asked this before, but how do I exactly downgrade from 1.5.3 to 1.5.2

I've downloaded Nothing Phone(1) Fastboot ROM v 1.5.2, where I can see the boot and vendor_boot images but I'm missing the 1.5.2 firmware. There are no zip files in the folder so what am I doing wrong?
[Nothing Phone 1] dexlemaffo:
Did you try the latest Instagram apk to see if it resolves your issue ?
[Nothing Phone 1] MrZaga:
Hi everyone, I currently am in a bad situation with my Nothing Phone 1:

I wanted to flash the firmware, which sadly failed. Now, I am stuck on the boot screen displaying "press any key to shutdown". I can't access Fastboot nor the bootloader. I tried the EDL mode (using volume keys and shorting the test points) which both result in the boot screen again.

How can I rescue my device?
[Nothing Phone 1] tottoroo:
Hi, So i've contacted Nothing support several times but nor response. My biggest issue these days is that Smart Lock regularly stops working. And when I check it's settings , the settings in Smart lock are gone basically. A restart or a Google Trust Agent turn off/on usually fixes it but it's a pain.
[Nothing Phone 1] Alex1911:
Hello,

I updated from 1.5.2 to 1.5.3 hotfix via Fastboot (Full update)

It seems the Apps I debloated did not reappear after update to higher OS Versions, where i come to the conlusion they must be removed from newer OS Versions (example: Gboard, Gdrive etc.)

I noticed a behavior on older Android Versions where Disabled/deinstalled System Apps did reappear after updates.

So my Question is:

Can anyone confirm that there is less bloat (unnessesary System Apps) on later nothing OS versions ?

Ps: Running with root on latest Nothing OS with MGLRU Disabler (gwolfu)

Best Regards

[Nothing Phone 1] iamthechickengod:
Is the 12GB version worth getting? My OnePlus 7T Pro is slowly degrading in battery capacity, i think.

Anyone know how to determine if the battery can still hold a charge effectively using terminal commands?
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
I think AccuBattery has the abbillity to look for battery health.

I dont think the NP1 is a worthy upgrade to your 7T Pro. But the NP1 is a very good device imo.
[Nothing Phone 1] iamthechickengod:
I guess I was leaning towards NP1 because of the simplicity similar to OOS and the Carl Pei vision. Agree that it appears to be a slight downgrade SoC-wise. I have Accubattery but it's a little hard to understand the data it gives.

Running 1.53, latest play services.

Phone seems to be running ok, but now and again I'll get a delayed reaction. Example: I created a contact and saved, then say a minute or so later a small message near the bottom "*** has been saved" or words to that effect which stays on the screen for maybe 30 seconds or longer. I do have battery saver on if that would make any difference.
[Nothing Phone 1] Nothing02:
Can anyone explain memory. Ok, I really don't understand much about this kind of stuff so for example ddg is using 96 MB, then 0 is using 36 MB and Z-RAM hardly anything.

GPS. What are 0 and 1?
[Nothing Phone 1] Nothing02:
Also in the cached part of running services ddg has two instances. Is this normal? Sorry but I really am a total newb when it comes to this sort of stuff. Since updating, the phone just seems slow whilst browsing.
[Nothing Phone 1] Sials:
I just bought a nothing phone (1) and I want to root it, but I am only going to root it if theres a way to remove the warning bootloader unlocked message, as on my previous phone, a oneplus nord n200, the bootloader message would pause on it if the phone was plugged in, meaning that it would stay on all night if i charged it and it was dead, and also if you accidently press the power button it would pause it and it would make it annoying to turn on, so please tell me if maybe the message doesnt have the pause boot thing or if it can be disabled alltogether.
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
For now there are no modules about this but the phone doesn't stop booting if it's turned on by plugging it in.

Pressing power button still pauses the boot process.
[Nothing Phone 1] Sials:
does the screen slow the boot up process

[Nothing Phone 1] calli:
After Android 13 OS update (1.5.3), my Nearby Share sending stopped working.

I can still receive seamlessly, but unfortunately I can't send - it gets stuck looking for nearby devices. Also I can't cast photos to TV - can't find device.

Yet, YouTube casts to devices perfectly and finds devices quickly.

What's upsetting is it worked before the update.

I've reported problem on Discord server, and to Nothing support and tried all steps to rectify listed on Google.

All to no avail - no one seems to have answer,

That's why I'm asking for your assistance or any ideas.

Maybe there is a patch to re-install/fix Nearby Share.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi

I want to end up with OnePlus. What is happening now with this brand is a failure. It's getting worse and worse from version to version of Android, just like from phone to phone.

/I will probably go for the NP2.

Is the phone root friendly?

Doesn't the manufacturer create strange ploys like it is now with OnePlus?

After 9 Pro stopped sharing kernel, OOS became more ColorOS. Stuffing unnecessary and junk apps. Not to mention support and delayed updates.

PS. Would like to hear from phone owners what's the plus and what's the minus (yes for model 1)
[Nothing Phone 1] Sonalk:
Hey! I haven't installed any modules in a while, I've had a pending busybox install for a while, just had to reboot but haven't done that in a week maybe. Now when I tried connecting my phone to my computer and selecting transfer files in the notification, it said that I had to enable developer options. Which I thought was weird because it has always been on.

When I tried pressing 7 times on the build to enable it again nothing happens and no notification at the bottom saying "you're x presses from enabling dev options" or whatever it says. I then tried to restarting my device by pressing restart on the power menu but nothing happens, the menu just dissapears.

I don't know if I want to force power down my device, this seems kind of suspicious and I really dont want to enter a bootloop.

Does anyone know what this might be and if it's safe to force power down it to check if it fixes itself? I just want to make sure if this is something known.

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I'm terrible at this whole story with firmware, adb & fastboot.

I wanted to upgrade from Nothing OS 1.5.2 to 1.5.4.

I installed the image 1.5.4. from xda via "fastboot flash boot" and it is bricked now.

I downloaded the ROM file from reindex, tried to install 1.5.4 first - it didn't work, then 1.5.2 - it didn't work either.

It is not possible to "Wipe data/Factory reset" through recovery because it says:

-- Wiping data...

E: DM_TABLE_LOAD failed: No such device or address

E: Could not create snapshot device: odm_a

E: Could not map snapshot for partition: odm_a

So, I bought Phone (1) in Western Europe. I haven't changed ROMs or anything (on 1.5.5 right now). Is there a reason why my NFC payments using Google Wallet barely work in some countries in Latin America using this phone? I dont even try anymore because 1 out of 10 it wont work. But it did work perfectly in Europe.

For comparison, I also carry an old Moto Z2 with a LineageOS ROM, and it works 100% fine with Google Wallet NFC payments in these countries. (and it did work in europe too).

Is there something related to the official ROM which might restrict payments in some countries?

Hello all,

I would like to know if the NP1 is Wifi calling compatible for the AT&T US region? I am looking for a flash friendly phone and this phone may be the answer.

What did the trick for me was:

Bring your device in fastboot mode

Enter device manager in Windows

Your device should be listed right on top as unknown.

Right klick and choose update driver, then local driver.

Install the Google one u get from here:

Get the Google USB Driver | Android Studio | Android Developers

The Google USB Driver is required to perform adb debugging on Windows with Google devices.
