Futures updates on the OP3/3T - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

With the launch of the OP5, does the OP3/3T will continues to receives updates? Will it be updated to Android O?

We are not Oneplus, we're just normal owners/Oneplus users just like you, we don't know now about this than you do. We can only guess, no definitive answers. I don't think you will get any definitive answer out of Oneplus even if they would hang around here outside of their own forum.

Don't ask me now where I read it, but I remember that I saw that Android O is scheduled for December 2017 for OP3/T
If I find it, I'll update here.

This site is dubious. Doesn't say any source. As OnePlus has not made any announcement regarding android o anywhere it's pretty hard to say right now. They said OnePlus 2 will get nougat but never specified any timeline and now OnePlus 2 users are bombarding every forum asking for it. So untill and unless OnePlus 5 actually is released we can't say if they'll show the same love to OnePlus 3 / 3T.

Well, I admit if a website names already the operating system, even an official name is not announced yet, it is dubious; I agree.
However seeing the current updates, I hope it is true, otherwise I return to Google Phones, there I know that I only get for 2 years updates

Yes. I also do hope we don't suffer the fate of OnePlus 2 users. If they stop updating it, I'd also opt for a pixel.

Android Lollipop

Hello good people. Doesn't anyone know if the TF701 is getting this upgrade?
We can hope so but I've not seen anything official from Asus.
Highly unlikely imo but you never know. We are approaching the 18 month point that marks the end of official support.

September 2013 (I thought it was August but I bought mine in Sep)
So that means soon we will be in month 14.
I feel like Asus abandoned us
I've been holding off putting a third party ROM on my TF701T as Asus had been good about updating other tablets. But I feel like their crappy docking hinge caused lower sales which makes them care very little about this particular product. My guess is we aren't going to see Lollipop officially. Good things there is active development going on.

He (pershoot) has said it a couple of times in his CM thread that he was going to make a lollipop rom, but it was a while ago, and I assume most people forgot about it or something.

I asked the people of ASUS and they said there are no plans a.t.m. for an android 5.0 release
Good news, pershoot released an unofficial cm 12 (android 5) port for tf701t yesterday
droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3671
I've just installed it via cwm recovery.
While I don't want to raise false hope, I just want to share one special brochure made by ASUS Singapore, indicating that there might be a 5.0 update for the tf701t. http://pricewatch.vr-zone.com/itshow/pricelists/view/ASUS7
Hmm, that's interesting. We can only hope.

I just got two updates in the last to days. They usually put out updates before they do a major upgrade like lollipop so I take this as a hopeful sign.

No, these weren't just app updates they were system updates. Got to watch the android dude a little bit both times. After the first my background changed after the second the pulldown changed. Still on 4.4.2
While I was in contact with ASUS support I asked about Android L to the TF701T. First they said that they had no info, but later I got a reply, where they said that the had contacted the RD-department and that ASUS have no plans on releasing Android L for the TF701T.
We can onlu hope that this info is incorrect or ASUS change their minds. They havn'nt made any offical statement at all regaring Android L to tablets, have they?

It doesn't surprise me as we are approaching 2 years. ASUS don't really release updates beyond 18 months. All their latest transformers seem to be using Intel chips for Android as well.

OenPlus CEO confirmed Android O

Moderator information,

i guess we are lucky the OP3t exists. dont know if we would have got O without it
Can't wait for that beta update, phew.
This isn't news we should be celebrating. It should be expected, sad they have to double confirm!

Great news, but I will have replaced my OP3 with the OP5 or a Pixel XL long before they ever release Android O for the OP3... haha
As long as OP release 1 version of O, that is rock solid with good battery life I will be happy. From that point they just need to give us the security updates.
I know many of you will expect more, but I accept that we paid much less for our phones and OP are a small company who will probably put 90% of there resources on the OP5.

I'll be excited about the caf based Roms like vertex once kernel source drops. Maybe OnePlus will have EAS built into the kernel along with it too. Only time will tell

They had promised updates for 2years and also replied to various comments on Facebook telling they will soon provide the update.
But this time their CEO has promised android O so I strongly feel we will get the update.
Nevertheless, keep calm and wait for android Oreo(hopefully) :fingers-crossed:

I think OP2 was screed because if Snapdragon 810 which wasn't a stable enough for every phone of that year. Snapdragon 820 on the other end is a totally different beast !

updated news : OnePlus 3/3T will get Android O

According to David Y on OnePlus Official forums:
First, my answer to the question on the thread title:
Yes. OnePlus 3/3T will get Android O. OOS team are working on it, even new community app (not public yet) just finished the compatibility work for Android O last week.
Here are some update I'd like to share with you guys:
Currently the OOS team are focusing on the OBT program and Android O for OP3/3T, also stable updates for OP5. Next stable update for OP3/3T was planned, will be a minor update updated Android security patch level to August.
I will keep you all in the loop once I got some latest updates.

Well, unlike the OP2, the OnePlus 3 was much more successful, and had no hardware issues. Plus, due to the similarities in hardware (and consequently software) between the OnePlus 3 and the 3T, they can essentially provide support for 2 devices at the cost and effort of one. If they, for instance, decide to go back on their promise for some reason, they would be offending the owners of 2 devices at the same time. As explained earlier, there would be no logical reason in updating just the 3T and not the 3. Now the only way forward for OnePlus would be to deliver on the standard 18 month support promise. It WOULD however, be a miracle if OnePlus goes one step further and give us the P update too, whenever it comes out. Unlikely, but a man can dream...

the 1st time was a promise , this time is an official timeline, he stated what the development team is working on already , not what they intend to...so,
i get it was bad not to provide the OP2 with the N update, but the circumstances for the 3/T is different.

Totally agree drakonizer. :highfive:
Lets hope Android O isn't a mess, (like Lollipop was,) and that the final OS update for our devices is stable with good battery life. For the next year after it can be left untouched with just the security patch updated.
I also don't expect OP to update us to Android P.
If they do a blog like this I would love this! I do rather have Oneplus being honest to us with what they are planning and working on!
It's not like they having so many devices to update, so i don't see any problem they support 3/T further, to P maybe? why jack up the ram to 6 Gb and says it's for "future proofing" if the software alone isn't supported for long. this device is more than capable handling O and so on

A Hope. Unified builds for Oneplus 5 and 5t

As Oneplus has released kernel sources for Oneplus 5t as mentioned in this post by @Funk Wizard
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/oneplus-5t-kernel-sources-t3705825
Hope they keep Board Support Package(BSP), the proprietary libraries, Unified just like they did with Oneplus 3 and 3t.
As Oneplus 5 is not available anymore, Developers wont get Oneplus 5 and will obviously go and Develop for Oneplus 5t.
Thus we'll have to rely on Unified builds for Custom Roms on this just 4 months 26 days old device.
I hope Oneplus unifies it.
Edit 1. I think this post by @eng.stk in Oneplus-5t forum suggests possibility of unified development ?

What do you guys think?
A lot of awesome devs have already bought the oneplus 5 so I don't think we need to worry.
Op5 will get Oreo in 2018, op5t in December. This is exactly why I won't buy another HTC phone again after my Sensation. OnePlus is going that way with big steps.

HTC U11 already gettin' Oreo. In Taiwan. And not beta or gamma or delta.
The open beta for N for the OP3 launched on 30 Nov, 2016.
The open beta for N for the OP3T launched on 31 Dec, 2016.
Open beta builds were unified in early 2017.
Hopefully, the stable Oreo build slated for release in early 2018 will be a unified build for the 5 and 5T. **fingers crossed**

Thats already one feature OnePlus 6 will be having making it different from Op5t.

OnePlus is smart enough to not launch Op5t with Oreo or they could have delayed its released by 1 month and Launch with treble support.

What I'm worried about is the silence about this update.
Usually when you start selling a phone that isn't at the last software you say that it will be updated in X time. This time NOTHING, nobody said something about it.
Asus has yet to prove themselves. While Zenfone 6 got a beta for Android 10, no other phone of theirs has. The first rog phone still doesn't have pie. Just learn to be happy with no updates to be honest than have false hope.
if no support later,we can flash GSI
