I read that a lot of problems in OOS system.
battery draining.
sometimes device didnt boot up after ota update or stuck on TWRP recovery.
OP releases many updates and I need to wipe this phone after new version was released? why?
I'm debating whether to buy the device.
I have none of these issues
No issues here.
I would say that these are mainly user errors..., They can not read correctly (or make a little research) before doing something to their phone.
Battery drain can be caused by a lot of things (user settings, faulty apps, signal and so on).
No issue here about battery life nor updates.
Hi,
Flashed 3 or 4 times my 1+3 before offering it to my son when I received my 1+3T, also immediately unlocked and flashed from 3.5.3 to 3.5.4 and now on RR 7.1.1 by nicesoni_ash and never had one issue during processing.
I agree with @Manson79, mostly user errors. Reading some topics and not only one may save from a lot of fear and time...

I've had 0 issues even on a custom ROM and a really good SoT too.
I think a lot of fears come from other people who do very silly things to their phones and do not understand what they are doing.
Buy one, its a pretty good phone.
Yeah, i'm running android N and oos 4 stable. After the ota update, the phone was lagging,but then ive made a factory reset and now everything runs incredibly smooth. Im very pleased with it
please more comments..
many problems in OP3T !!!
even GPS problems..
No issues like this at all. Maybe Oxygen is not the most picture perfect and polished OS but definitely none of there happen
How the OP3T is the fastest phone in the world if the oxygen is didnt stable system?

I don't understand you.
The OP3T never tried to claim a title of 'fastest phone in the world'. It has great hardware yes. Oxygen OS is a great software.
It seems you're intent on bashing the OP3T, so you're better advised buying a more expensive phone.
Not sure if OP is trolling... anyway, most problems are user errors. Most don't even clear the cache after doing a major OS update like from MM to N, or install random apps that they have no clue what they do in the background, and then go complain.
I am using latest OOS and have zero issues. Battery life and speed are amazing.
On the initial Nougat update I had horrible battery. With the newest update, getting amazing battery. Everything seems to be running great.

That's funny. I had the exact opposite of you on the initial release. Good battery, poor performance. At least scrolling certain apps. But I agree, this release is running great.

Not quite this good. It was this newest update that seemed to fix it. Happy with the entire phone now.
I do have one problem with battery life as in attachment. But I still find it a decent phone with at least 4hrs of SOT. I'll still struggling finding what causes the issue but no success so far. I strongly recommend the phone, since battery is the Google issue.
I got no issue since I got my OP3T, mine is chinese version A3010 run 3.5.4 and now 4.0.1. I mostly got 6 to nearly 7 hours of SOT. I play game about 15mn to 30mn each charge and watch youtube all day long. I rocks two sim cards and mostly use wifi. If I use 4g, battery drop very fast.
This is on Official RR 7.1.1 not bad for being on cellular network about 80% of the time.

This thing is just amazing. Wasn't really sure with the direction Oneplus was heading with OOS 3.5, mainly because of dark theme not being pitch black anymore. They fixed that and all other bugs in 3.5.1.
I liked how they fixed stock android's achilles heel i.e the lag in stock messanger and contacts card pull up, both of the features you can't get away without using dozens of times daily. People will complain they're moving away from stock but I'll argue google has been lazy in improving messanger and contacts performance. I tend to have a 6p and 5x aswell. All that with the SOT of 6+ hours. Unbelievable work from Oneplus.
But now with 3.5.2, they've thrown it out of the park. It's so freaking perfect it's almost boring. How can these guys be so freaking good at this optimization thing. It's IOSque performance wise. I wouldn't even root the current build. Well, probably will to set the sRGB white less warm but I can't believe how good this software is. It's aesthetically neat and beautiful too.
sounds a bit TGTBT. can someone else confirm?
Just flashed it last night and certainly it is more stable and fluid than the last build. The Dialer app and Messaging app are really fast and just pull up in a flick. I am running all stock and battery life is extremely great. No more Android system drain and the doze mode works really cool. Overall a nice build that i really like over the 3.2.4 stable.

I agree it is too early to comment but based on last beta build, it started showing drainage symptoms within few hours of flashing. It has been more than 14hrs since flash and so far it is running awesome.

currently I am at oxygen os 3.5.1 kernel version 3.18.20 [email protected]
every time it download the 1.3gb file and try to update, the update fails.
on the screen it shows the zip file is corrupt. so I update again by downloading the file once again but no luck.
should I just download the latest os 3.5.2 in my laptop and flash it in my oneplus 3 using adb? Is there any risk involve?

Well yeah, FWIW it is a good upgrade nevertheless. Not sure if its a placebo, but I do see an improvment in dialer launching speed.
Shame they didn't yet improve the accent color options though. Simply hate the color palette they've provided right now.. wish they add a color picker in the next build atleast.

People on the other thread said it borks twrp if you're oem unlocked and you have to do the hard brick resurrection posted in another thread to fix so I'm hesitant about making that jump for that reason
I have still not upgraded on 3.2.4 (1608061823) to avoid breaking VoLTE. Can anyone confirm if I can skip this and still upgrade to 3.5.2?
P.S. Can someone confirm if this is OP OTA update or community build?

this is community build update. try flashing 3.2.5, its a factory version and people are saying it resolved all their issue they had with 3.2.4. i personally didnt had any issues with 3.2.4 but still i flashed 3.2.5 and it seems a bit smoother and battery life also seems a bit better.
so what should I do now?

should I wait till oneplus officially rolls out full oxygen os 3.5 for everyone or keep continue using current 3.5.1 until this problem fixed by newer updates?
or go back to os 3.2.4 using recovery and all?
Would be nice if people were to post screenshots of the new update. I honestly prefer HOS new beta way over HOS CB, it has the best of both worlds and until I see some screens showing more improvement, i'm not interested. Don't like what they did with shelf and the notification shade. Shelf looks like a straight up iOS rip, and the notification shade doesn't even look like Nougat shade.
I'm going to be honest, they should stop the builds all together (no merger) and just work on a completely new rom based on Nougat.

As of about 2 days ago, I have noticed a rapid drain of the battery. From 100-0 in about 8 hours.
And just now, recharged around 1:30 p.m., and as of about 4:00 p.m. it went from 97% to 55%, with "3 more hours of battery left" (I use the Dash Charger Only fwiw)
I have hardly been using it...at all. I leave the display on 50% normally, but again, not using it. And since noticing this, I even took the dispay to 25%.
I went to the settings/battery to find that right above Android is Dictionary, which I don't use. I force closed it
Dictionary 8%
Android System 6%
Android OS 5%
Facebook 5%
TypeApp Mail 4%
T-Mobile Name ID 4%
Google App 4%
Google Play Services 2%
I would welcome any help.
Try a factory reset?
I'm on the leaked nougat and this phone is blowing my mind. Just as good as the iPhone 7+ in regards to battery life and butteryness. Longest battery life I've ever used on an Android and the smoothest experience.
I'm so glad I didn't get the pixel, so glad..
Factory reset your phone and don't install any other apps for a while. See if the battery drain continues. If so, return your phone via manufacture's warranty, since you probably have a defective battery
Trying to avoid a Reset.
I restarted in safe mode, and it is much better now, only indicating is is one of my apps etc
I also have the Pixel XL which does blow this away even when this phone was at its peak. But, I guess we all use different apps
What do you have to do to get Android Nougat you said you have.
Thanks so much

Hey bro! Right now on oos 3.5.4, did face issues but I've flashed blu_spark kernel and phone's working like a charm again. You are using stock kernel right? do you have any experience with blu_spark so you can compare performance to your actual rom?
I am on stock correct. Otherwise don't root etc. Haven't for a few years with C and beat it. Cant keep all that knowledge together
So I guess I answered your question, but otherwise I am lost. Thanks for sticking with me everyone

I was referring to (oos 3.5.3/3.5.4 + blu_spark) vs OOS 4.0 but thx anyway! I'll keep on MM & custom kernel untill final 4.0 is released.
Nougat is the solution
Im running the new nougat leaked and is been phenomenal here is a screenshot
I read have some problems in new OOS 4.0, battery drain for example.
When OP release a fix update?
3.5.3 is the best?
This device better than SGS7?

Subjective. For dev support, OP3T hands down. But Galaxy S7S has some hardware that is better than OP3T like wireless charging, camera, and SD card slot. It depends on what you want out of a phone.
What about my OOS question?
I'm not sure which one is the better one, but definitely the 3.5.4 is the worst.
I like some new features on 4, but I have experimented around 2 bugs with Facebook (it got freezed and I have to go and stop the app to be able to use it again).
Also, with the 3.5.3 I'd been getting more than 7 hrs of active screen. Now I just get around 6 and a half...
It's not a major difference or problem, I'm comfortable with using the nougat version...
there are no battery problems on oos4.
ppl using buggy apps which drain battery. don't listen to every **** they post.
OP releases many updates to this phone?
every month?
I've been very happy with MM on my N6 and still get great battery life and performance. I'm comfortable with ROMs/mods and my phone is pretty much where I want it in terms of functionality and UI. After months of debate, I'm still unsure if it's worth moving to Nougat (and not impressed with O preview either). I'm so unconvinced that I don't even feel like investing the time in testing 7.x particularly after reading posts of battery or compatibility issues. I'm not trying to be "stuck in the past" but just don't see a convincing reason to update.
The last dedicated thread I saw on MM vs N was from Oct 2016, any new opinions since then?
I'm thinking about moving back to MM because of the terrible battery life and performance on nougat.
In the same boat. MM seems to give me better battery life but Nougat seems a little bit more snappier.
I've only been on 7.0 for a couple of weeks, but no complaints.

Hey... Flashed Pure Nexus with EX Kernel as soon as its nougat iteration appeared and never looked back. Well I can't really compare about battery life as my phone is now 2 years old. Still it performs very well, nothing to complain about. Screen on time is the same and standby is better on Android 7 i think. Of course stock firmware is not as polished as it should, but custom ROMs are here to change that. I don't need that much mods on my phone anymore except theme, ad blocker, theme ready apps and maybe a few other things.
What kind of incompatibility issues are you talking about?
Well, I understand you don't want to waist your time , but it's just a matter of backup/flash/test. You won't loose anything and if you don't like it, you can always revert back to MM anyway. I think a weekend is more than enough to decide if it's worth it for you or not.
I usually prefer testing things myself and not based on people statements. Because everyone has his tastes and they unlikely match mines...
Cheers...
I'm on 7.1.1 stock with Franco Kernel, encryption disabled and F2FS filesystem.
No problems with stability, lags or battery life. In fact, I usually get around 5h+ of screen on time, which is pretty good for a 2 years old phone.
Usually, battery life and stability are user fault. Of course we can't say everything is related to users... But if you configure correctly your apps permissions, don't install anything out of the play store and don't do things like undervolting... You should be good to go.
Regards,
Rafael

I'd have to go back and look at the threads I've read, the only thing I recall being a deal-killer was not being able to use net.tethering under Nougat (is that still an issue)? I've been very happy with Pure (MM) with Franco on my other devices but have kept stock on my N6. I agree with testing it out myself, just need to find some time, but generally trust opinions on XDA.
Phone has been solid for years and rooted with Nova, adaway, lightflow, multiwindow, and tethering has met my needs. Maybe I'm just being lazy or in a rut but definitely would like something more revolutionary to encourage the upgrade.
Thanks for the input everyone, gives me a lot to think about.

Sadly I can't really help you with net.tethering as I don't use it...
Just make a search in Q/A or open a thread if nothing shows up. I'm sure you'll get an answer... :good:
Good luck...
Couple of days with stock 7.1.1 and so far it's fine, nothing that made me thrilled with the update but nothing that makes me want to roll back. Can't say it's snappier than MM or has better battery life, though. Enabled tethering using the usual net.tethering entry as well as 'settings put global tether_dun_required 0' so nothing lost there. Guess if this is the last, full-point update for my beloved N6 I can live with it (until I find an annoyance I can't stand and flash Pure or something else).
Thanks again for everyone's input!
Bought my N6 used back in September. I still have official 7.0 My device has never stuttered or slowed down (outside of extremely low battery and high CPU apps). I have a lot of apps installed, I use it hard, and run some demanding apps (like raw photo conversion) on occasion. And I just clocked 3+ days of battery use with nearly 7 hours of SOT under a variety of uses. I can't imagine not using N on this device.

Curious, what problems do you have in 711? Those issues aside, the OP asked about 7.0 as opposed to 711.

Its all about standby battery life when using a bt device like an android watch. Not going to get into arguements here but have tested and 7.0 doesnt have the bad drain on my unit and 711 absolutely does. Thus cannot be an old battery if the only change i made was OS version and drastic difference in battery drain. 711 has about 2x+ the standby drain with bt on. 7.0 and 6.0 have much better drain
Hear me out. I think the phone is amazing. The software is crap, now the 5 is out the updates have already slowed. Not to mention OOS is always behind on security.
Now custom roms. I appreciate highly the work so many devs have been doing especially sultan, lineage and paranoid. But theres always something thats a bit off, camera especially, lag etc. Always end up going back to OOS then get bored again, try roms again.
Is there anyone else like me who has had enough of being a crack flasher or gets bored easily and has just had enough of trying to find perfection from a oneplus phone ?
What do you want to hear? Need a confirmation for yourself to get another phone to make the step a bit easier?
Yes, I hate the manner of OnePlus to not even fix a single thing, like the implementation of the Camera2 API. Sure, they lied to us more often than we want. But what company does the job better?
If you want to get a new phone: Fine. I'm also looking for a replacement. But I'm looking for phones for weeks or months, so I'm sure, the phone is good enough and beloved by devs. For me, no OP-device anymore. But really fed up? No.

I dont meed a confirmation from anyone. Ive made a topic for discussion. For instance i have a oneplus one as well ae my back up. There is more stable nougat roms on that, a 3 year old phone than there is on the newer higher spec 3t. Phones are getting ridiculous. What the hell is with these curved screens now so no tempered glass fits properly.
The next phone i get needs to be something that will have good support. Preferably from a company who releases camera sources
LAG on OP3T? wtf :0
I agree with you, I dont like OOS but i love custom roms and PA is perfect, its so smooth and optimized and their camera software is on par with OOS cam

Honestly stock is the best for this phone by far. Set it up right and its the fastest phone out there. Are you talking about screen lag or application lag?

Ah! I am defeateddddd! Pa had application lag. For instance it opens but messages would appear after lag and same with settings. Stock is better but i hate the delay in updates that dont fix basic bugs or update security.
My 2 cents; OOS continues to be good enough I don't even bother to unlock anymore. I was a Nexus fan for sure, but the 6P was my end of the line (yeah yeah, end of the line anyway). I had numerous issues and it finally got the bootloop problem that was plaguing many users. I got a used replacement, sold it and never looked back from the 3T. I tried most roms for the Nexus lines and while many were excellent, it was always something. When I got the 3T I decided to just leave it stock for a week and have not looked back. I get at least 2 days from it, it charges insanely fast, have had no lag/reboots/lockups, nothing. I would say I'm a fairly normal user except no social media really, privacy and all.
I keep a tab on what's new and as of today, nothing at all has tweaked my interest. Samsung/Motorola/HTC = never, too bloated. Pixel = too expensive.
I do feel the security updates are a bit slow and some additional OOS goodies would be nice, but for the price, for me it's hands down still the best phone.
Stock is the best rom, ftw

Sultans and PA are the best custom roms but they are not without their bugs.

Hear me out. I think the phone is amazing. The software is crap, now the 5 is out the updates have already slowed. Not to mention OOS is always behind on security.
Now custom roms. I appreciate highly the work so many devs have been doing especially sultan, lineage and paranoid. But theres always something thats a bit off, camera especially, lag etc. Always end up going back to OOS then get bored again, try roms again.
Is there anyone else like me who has had enough of being a crack flasher or gets bored easily and has just had enough of trying to find perfection from a oneplus phone ?

Didn't we get like 2 betas already since the 5 is out? Also, custom roms have issues on EVERY phone. You won't find a phone where a custom rom works 100%.

3 betas since our last update. Because we are still testing for the 5. Tell me what beta features have come to stable?

I don't know and I don't care to be honest. The stable version of OOS is an inferior version of the beta at this point. The beta is 100% stable in my experience and offers more features than the stable one as you've said.

Or you could have just let it fade into obscurity instead of bumping it, since nobody posted to it for 8 months.

...and a bunch of other stuff, the ROM is stable for Oreo 8.1, and with the help of other mods, and for someone coming from OnePlus X the phone feels great.
Wlan signal quality is very bad with mine.
Noticeable in many games, when it is endlessly stucked until the it the signal gets through again.
With 4G there is 0 problems, it's only this weak Wlan module, it's getting on my nerve.

Oxygen os lies about signal strength.
