Notes:
If you flash the OTA.zip (Nothing OS update packages), it's recommended to follow these steps for a smooth update process:
1. Flash the OTA.zip.
2. Immediately flash the OrangeFox.zip.
3. Reboot to recovery.
4. Flash the OTA.zip again.
5. Follow up with flashing the OrangeFox.zip.

This sequence ensures that both partitions are updated to the latest ROM version on both slots, reducing the risk of future issues.

Changelogs:
- Synced with latest sources
- Fixed flashing of ota.zip
- Fixed flags
- Fixed flashing error via old orangefox via last build

Seeking enthusiastic and dependable testers for Nothing Phone (2) custom ROMs, kernels, and other miscellaneous development tasks:

Prerequisites:
- Actively committed to testing, not just someone looking to spectate.
- Unlocked bootloader
- Fundamental knowledge of flashing, rooting, or prior testing experience.
- Access to a computer and a reliable internet connection (preferably without strict data limits).
- Proficient in restoring data backups and comfortable with potential data loss during testing (in rare cases).
- Must demonstrate loyalty and synchronization with the development team. Testers leaking alpha builds without the developer's consent to any external platform beyond the testing group will face removal and banning from the Pong community without prior notification.

If you're interested, please leave a comment below this post, and we'll get in touch with you accordingly.

Cheers!
