Users started noticing some bugs after a few days of updating to Android 12 on their Nokia 5.3 devices. Users complained that they were not able to carry the update and the devices are no longer usable. The user stated, “Nokia is bricked”.
This problem occurs when the user chose to factory reset the device after installing the update properly. The user was not even able to restart the device the screen kept turning off.
In response, HMD stated, “We are aware of the problems coming to some users for the model after the recent update, but we are working intensively on the resolution to fix the problem as soon as possible.” Also, the company has stopped the roll-out of the update and now working on an update to fix the issue.
