Nothing Phone 1 ( sm7325 )

[ALNassrME]

Hi , I have purchased a Nothing Phone specifically for use with Kali NetHunter. If I installed the pre-release version and subsequently updated the repositories.
Am I now receiving the latest updates? Additionally, you may utilize my device if needed for testing or update-related purposes ( sm7325 ) .

Hi @ALNassrME,
I’ve dropped support for NP1 as I no longer have the device. Maintaining a device without physical access is difficult. I’ll let you know if I build a new release.

Hi @ALNassrME, just uploaded a new release. Would you like to test it?

I have tested it on updates (3.2, 2.0.2, 1.1), but I’m experiencing a boot issue: the device freezes at the Nothing logo and then reboots.

Did you erase dtbo and vendor_boot before booting?

Yes, I erased dtbo and vendor_boot before booting.

fastboot erase dtbo
fastboot erase vendor_boot

Hmm, ok I'll check and let you know. Maybe some flags I've missed in the kernel.

Have you tried the previous release? Is it booting?

In SM7325-20250114 (Android 15 update 3.2) I was facing a boot issue — it shows the dragon logo and then freezes on a black screen. After rolling back to Android 14 (update 2.6), the system booted perfectly.

[Shubhamvis98]

So android 15 prevents nhpro to boot properly. And the recent release doesn't boot in both android 14 and android 15. Am I right?

Yes

Can you try this image: SM7325-20250824
see if it boots or not.

Hey folks,
I tested boot_spacewar_20250114 on Nothing OS 2.5.6 and it starts just fine. On 3.2 I get a black screen like ALNassrME.
20250824 does not boot on 2.5.6 and also not on 3.2
I always get a crash while booting. I share a screenshot of it below.

Thanks for your work!!!

If there is anything you want me to try, just tell me.

Also, how do you compile the boot.img?
Seems like the script in this repo only creates the userdata?

[Shubhamvis98]

For boot.img, you have to compile the kernel first. Once you have the kernel, you can generate the boot.img or repack an existing boot.img. The boot.img generate script is in the repo's bin folder.

Okay, thanks!
I think this is the latest available kernel/device tree?
At least I cant find something newer.
