In this guide, we will show you the steps to exit the No Command screen on your Nothing Phone 1. Recovery Mode is one such partition on your device that is used by general users and tech enthusiasts alike. The former set of users could use it to install the firmware via ADB Sideload or factory reset the device.

On the other hand, the tech geeks could install a custom recovery like TWRP which in turn will allow them to flash ZIP and IMG files, take a Nandroid backup, or wipe various device partitions. In this regard, using a stock recovery is pretty straightforward with no strings attached, however, the customer recovery is where things get a tad complicated. But as of late, the OEMs are making matter difficult even in the stock recovery.

And Nothing is no different either. Once you use the ‘adb reboot recovery’ command or the hardware key combinations to boot to recovery, you would instead be taken to the No Command screen with a dead Android logo. This is enough to be a cause of concern for the end users. If you are also in the same boat, then fret not. In this guide, we will show you the steps to come out of this No Command screen on your Nothing Phone 1. Follow along.
