Code:
error code -2: pre-build-incremental is different from ro.build.date.utc
Go to Settings, System, Date and Time, remove automatic time zone and set it manually to China, Shangai was the only option working for me.
Now reopen the offline updater and try starting the update once again
Don't forget to set automatic time zone again after you are done!
The cause of the instability of rooted system with 1.5.3(/hotfix) is the implementation of MGLRU, a new way to handle processes and memory while the phone is under pressure.
This module should fix the issue:

If you encounter freezes or crashes user @gwolfu made this module which script runs every 30s to force MGLRU to stay disabled:

NOTHING OS IMG - DOWNLOAD BOOT IMAGES
/!\ IT'S HIGHLY RECOMMANDED /!\
to always using fastboot "boot" command installation
instead directly "flash" a patched boot.img file to avoid any risk of brick
to always using fastboot "boot" command installation
instead directly "flash" a patched boot.img file to avoid any risk of brick
Code:
.\fastboot boot Magisk_Patched_XXX.img
By the way if Magisk patched boot file is good, device will boot temporary with root and install Magisk, you must simply install/apply root on the boot definitively :
- Open Magisk > Install > Install Directly (Recommanded) > Reboot... Voila !
If the Magisk patched boot file don't boot, just do a hard reboot/shutdown by pressing ON/OFF button +5 seconds, device reboot directly with your stock boot without problems.
- Global Version Stock 1.5.0
- Global Version Magisk Patched 1.5.0
- EEA Version Stock 1.5.0
- EEA Version Magisk Patched 1.5.0
From BETA.2 onwards Boot Images are unified meaning that the same img can be used for both Global and EEA versions!
From 1.5.2 onwards Boot Images are unified meaning that the same img can be used for both Global and EEA versions!
What are the regional variants of Nothing OS ?
Nothing offers two distinct regional variants of Nothing OS.
If Nothing OS <1.5
- Intended for European countries is the "EEA" version, as it meets the requirements of the European Privacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
- The other version, the so-called "Global Version" is intended for Asian and Australian devices.
Code:
getprop ro.product.name
If Nothing OS <1.5
Code:
getprop ro.product.system.name
- These commands will return "SpacewarEEA" if the device is delivered with the European firmware.
- For International models, the result should be "Spacewar" only.
