If your game is taking too long to update on your Nothing Phone, the problem might be related to the game’s size or your internet connection. Here’s what you can do to fix it and speed things up.
Follow these steps to troubleshoot slow game updates:
- Wait if you’re updating a AAA (Triple-A) game.
These high-end games are larger and often require more time to download and install updates. - Check your internet connection:
- If you’re using Wi-Fi, make sure the signal is strong and stable.
- Try restarting your router or switching to another network if available.
- If you’re using mobile data, make sure it’s turned on and that you haven’t exceeded your monthly data limit.
- Switch networks if needed:
- If one network (Wi-Fi or mobile) is slow, try switching to the other to see if performance improves.
- Restart the update process:
- Close the game and its update window.
- Reopen the game or the app store and try updating again.
- Still not working?
- Reach out to Nothing Customer Support for further assistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why do AAA games update slower than others?
AAA games are much larger in size and require more system resources to download and install, which naturally takes more time—especially on slower connections.
2. Can I pause and resume a game update to fix the issue?
Yes. Sometimes pausing and resuming the update can re-establish a better connection with the server and improve speed.
3. Will switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data cancel the update?
No, but be mindful of your data usage, especially if the update is large. Make sure your phone allows downloads over mobile data if switching networks.
