Important Considerations for Beta Software Installation

While this beta software promises an exclusive sneak peek into the upcoming features, users must exercise caution due to the experimental nature of the release. It is crucial to acknowledge that beta versions may contain bugs and potential issues that could impact data integrity or even necessitate a factory reset. In rare cases, improper installation may lead to phone malfunctions.

Hence, users are advised to proceed with utmost care and bear personal risk when installing the beta software. Additionally, a complete data backup is strongly recommended before initiating the installation process.

Rolling Back to Stable Version

In the event that users find the beta software unsatisfactory due to bugs or glitches, or wish to return to a stable version, they can follow these steps:

  1. Prior to initiating the rollback process, it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive data backup, as the rollback entails a factory reset and all unsaved data will be lost.
  2. Download the designated rollback package for Nothing OS 2.0.3
  3. Navigate to Settings > System > Update to Beta version.
  4. Tap "Import file" and select the previously downloaded package.
