OnePlus Nord 2T Problems: BatteryDraining Fast
The OnePlus Nord 2T might give you a full day’s worth of battery power in 15 minutes but some users have complained about the battery draining so fast that they have to charge it twice a day. Here are some ways to fix it.
• Use 4G instead of 5G
5G is all the rave these days. Unfortunately, it is fairly new technology with limited coverage, which means that your phone is constantly searching for a strong 5G network. This contributes to a fair amount of battery drain on the Nord 2T’s battery. Change your phone’s network settings to 4G instead for every day use. 4G LTE is fast enough for most tasks. For those odd occasions when you need super-fast speeds, you can temporarily switch to 5G.
• Remove Antivirus and Cleaning Apps
Having apps like phone cleaner or other antivirus-based apps on your device can drain your battery at an alarming rate. They run in the background and drain your device’s battery life. Make sure to uninstall these apps.
• Turn Down The Screen Brightness
Screen brightness is a factor that most smartphone users are aware of but some still set the brightness bar so high and wonder why their phone battery is getting drained. It does not just drain your battery it heats your smartphone too, and that can cause it to ultimately lag. You do not need to have the screen at its brightest setting to use the phone. Set the brightness lower to avoid these problems.
• Avoid Live Wallpapers
Live Wallpaper on your OnePlus Nord 2T might be beautiful and captivating to look at, I mean it is a cool feature to have on any smartphone but it will drain your device’s battery power faster than a normal wallpaper would because the processors on the phone are being engaged and having to light up bright images. So, you might have to sacrifice your precious live wallpapers if you want your battery to last longer.
• Multiple Running Apps
Another reason a lot of people aren’t aware of is leaving multiple apps open and running on your OnePlus Nord 2T. Honestly, it does not come to mind to clear them all up but they do drain the battery the longer you leave them. Clear all your apps on the app tab from time to time and how much smoother it is to run apps and games.
OnePlus Nord 2T Problems: Facial recognition Issue
Some users have complained about encountering problems with the face lock feature on the OnePlus Nord 2T. It successfully scans your face and unlocks the device but is stuck on the home screen. You are going to need to restart your device and check if that resolves it. If it doesn’t, disable Face lock and re-enable it. Remove your old face data and add a new one.
OnePlus Nord 2T Problems: Laggy Performance
OnePlus Nord 2T is equipped with a powerful processor, the Dimensity 1300 5G chipset. This chip is capable of handling all but the most demanding tasks. As such, there should be no lags or freezing from the phone in everyday use, unless there is a problem. Yet, according to some users, the OnePlus Nord 2T begins to lag after only a few weeks of use, as well as the frame rate dropping while playing games (especially large games). The factors listed below can be responsible for any lags you experience in the Nord 2T.
• Custom Theme
Using a custom theme on the phone could be the cause of the device slowing down or lagging. Going back to default settings might fix or improve the lagging on your OnePlus Nord 2T.
• Third-party Launcher app
If you use a third-party launcher app, it would cause your phone to lag seriously. To take care of the lag, you should uninstall the Third-party launcher and use the phone’s original System Launcher.
•Outdated Software
If your OnePlus Nord 2T’s software is outdated it could also be a contributing factor to why your device is lagging. If the latest software update is available on your phone, update it to the late version. This is because OnePlus is efficient when it comes to dropping software updates to enhance user satisfaction. These software updates will fix bugs and issues that your device might have. So it’s always good to check for updates if your phone is lagging or not.
To check for updates, go to Settings > System updates > Check for updates. If there is an update available, tap the DOWNLOAD & INSTALL NOW option.
•Outdated apps
Another reason why your OnePlus Nord 2T is lagging might be because you are running outdated versions of whatever app or game you have opened. You need to keep your apps and games, especially the large, powerful games, updated. You can do this by going to the Play Store app, tapping on Manage apps & device and you will see all the apps and games that have available updates. You can then go ahead and update them.
OnePlus Nord 2T Problems:Bluetooth Issue
There is an issue with the OnePlus Nord 2T where the Bluetooth can’t be turned on or off and blinks constantly. Go to Settings > Apps and notifications, see All apps, there will be 3 dots on the top right corner (show system apps). Tap on Bluetooth > Storage and Battery. Clear the cache and storage and restart your device.
P.S: Another issue that has been noticed Is the OnePlus Nord 2T going into Safe mode and staying in safe mode even after multiple restarts. It can be fixed by backing up and restarting all settings.
So there you have it, some major problems you might encounter while using your OnePlus Nord 2T. If all of these still don’t work, you might need to send a direct complaint to OnePlus or get the device itself replaced.

Samsung’s new Repair Mode is brilliant, and it is a wonder that it hasn’t been done already before now. When your phone needs to go to the service centre to get fixed, your personal data on it – photos, contacts, videos, messages – are all at the risk of being accessed by the technician. Before now, the only way to prevent that is to backup your files and factory reset your phone. And when the phone comes back, you restore your backups to it. Stressful.
But with the new Repair Mode introduced by Samsung, that stress is a thing of the past for Galaxy phone owners. Before sending your phone to the technician, switch it to Repair Mode, and all your personal data is hidden away. As a matter of fact, the phone then appears to be factory reset – nothing is accessible. When the tapirs are concluded and your precious phone is back in your hands, use your PIN or fingerprint to exit Repair Mode, and your hidden data is restored.
Absolutely brilliant. I expect every other phone maker to copy this concept and come up with their own equivalents of Repair Mode. Wait; scratch that. I fully expect Google to bake this feature into Android OS, so that every Android user can take advantage of it. Apple will definitely come up with a sleeker version of it for iPhones, as well. I am betting on that.
How to enable Repair Mode in Samsung phones
On your Samsung phone, go to Settings > Battery and Device Care , to activate it. Once activated, your phone will reboot into a state that is as clean as a factory reset.
When will Repair Mode show up in the first Samsung phones?
Samsung says that Repair Mode will be implemented in the Galaxy S21 series via a software update. It will get baked into One UI, come to other existing models in the future, and come to new Samsung phones. No time schedule has been given for the roll out.
Repair Mode is more than enough reason for many people to want to switch to Samsung phones . Again, it is absolutely brilliant.
