I would recommend to wait for Stable PIE OTA (should be available by MAY END).
If you switch to CB PIE then probably your data will be wiped AND when the stable OTA is launched then AGAIN you'll probably have to wipe all data.
Performance is okay-ish and battery drain is present on current CB PIE BETA.

Why OB dont get new pie update?
stable release was more recommend?

The OB program technically ended in July 2018. I think the philosophy was that the 3T was old enough to not warrant testing of new/experimental features; and presumably OnePlus was going to focus resources on their newer devices.
OnePlus is calling the PIE update a "community beta" after completing a closed beta. So you might think of it as more or less of an open beta, whether by name or not. But seeing as this is likely the last stable update (at least the last major update) for this device, there isn't a point in testing more experimental features (such as they did with the OB builds).

[Discussion] Android 7.0 Nougat released for Nexus devices!

Seeing as there is no thread for the OP3 discussing Nougat as it pertains to this device, I though I would start a discussion thread.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android-nougat-finally-released-get-it-now/
Android 7.0 was released August 22nd 2016 for the Nexus 5X, Pixel C, and Nexus 9 tablet. The factory images are available for download. Interestingly, Google also announced that the LG V20 will be the first device to launch with 7.0, meaning the Marlin and Sailfish nexuses are a bit farther away.
Hopefully OnePlus releases 7.0 for the OP3 sooner rather than later...
Edit: Nexus 6 and 6P have yet to receive OTA, but are expected to receive it soon
Hope they release the source soon so that the custom roms start popping up
What's the typical time frame from update to aosp I thought they were at the same time in the past

curious as to whether OOS or CM will get a full Android N ROM together first.

Since the OP3 devs are awesome, i'd guess there will be unofficial builds of CM before OnePlus releases the official OOS Nougat build. Although obviously early CM Nougat builds may not be 100% stable, but will obviously improve over time.
Now to wait for the AOSP drop and for someone talented to put together a ROM
Of course a custom ROM will come first, OOS takes far too long for what little changes it has.
I hope @Grarak will do his magic when the sources are available!
CM14 will take a long time (don't quote me on this but I guess it will be somewhere around December)
Jesus I cannot wait to try Nougat
Is it just me waiting for the OOS version of Nougat?
If you go by Android 6 releases, it took Oneplus ~9 months to release it after official release, so I expect the OnePlus 3 to receive Android 7 in May 2017.
AOSP sources have been updated soo. If someone wants to cook something up the resources are there.

You're not the only one. The only thing better than stock Android is OOS.
they were collecting 50 OP3 beta testers on theyr forum few weaks ago so i think that was android N beta testing phase.

Sounds great. Would be great to see nougat soon.
Android N does not look to be a giant leap from M so I don't think it will take OnePlus that long to get a beta or full release out

yeah, just multiwindow and vr support and little little design changes + some changes to doze. testing the final release on my 5x.
Moreover OP have to adjust the drivers for nougat...
The OP3 ist my daily driver, so i want a stable build.
I dont think oneplus will take longer time to update to android n. They may have learnt their mistakes they did in oneplus 2 and might not repeat this time. This is just my opinion.
If OP releases a stable Nougat build before the end of the year I would consider that a success. More importantly, I'd like them to release their camera source code so that it can be used in Aosp or CM based ROMs

OOS 4.0 VS. OOS 3.2.8 VS. OOS Beta 10

We all know that OOS 4.0 has been released recently, OOS 3.2.8 users got OTA update while some still did not get and others still using Beta 10
I updated from Beta 10 to Stable 4.0
actually I'm not happy with the new update and see from my side that Beta 10 is better than the new stable release 4.0
1. Long (extended) Screenshot removed from 4.0
2. In Call UI font became bigger in 4.0
3. Launcher reverted back to old style which was in Old Betas and H2 Style removed
So tell us what do you think of the new update?

Well that's what these beta builds are for. One plus said before that the beta build can be a bit different from the stable builds.

Clear google play services framework and google play services data and cache and then reboot. It's an issue with the device not able to connect to the google cloud connection services.
This should fix the issue.
The N for OP3 is still buggy for my taste. To many variables are a source for bugs and tbh that f2s partition is also trouble, not 100% but still. I will stick to my MM for now since it's flawless in any terms...Xposed, awesome kernels, stability,etc. N will be an option after op will "finally settle" it a bit

Sorry for asking stupid questions...Will there be OTA updates for OOS Beta 10, or in order to get some new OTAs I have to manually flash Stable 7.0? (and also do full wipe, right?)

If your are on Open beta you'll get Open beta updates only, you'll get OTA for open beta 11.
If you are on OOS 4, you'll get OOS 4 updates like 4.0.1.
If you want to switch from OB to OOS, you can sideload it from official recovery or if you have twrp you can just flash it like any other rom.

Thanks for clarifying, one more question: sideloading official 4.0 when I have Beta 10 is equal to full wipe, right?

Yes it does, make sure you backup all your data.

hate for anti roll back...

hi I'm a European user, can I exit from the beta program and install the stable version?
No
Surely you can, but you must flash the stable version with the same level security patch, which is required by Google.

Right what you say, but it will pass on a stable firmware version where GPay will not work in the first place.

Android 12 beta to stable update ?

Hi ! I'm on Android 11 september patch and it's easy to flash Android 12 on my pixel 4a 5g but do wipe all my data.
I have a question if I flash the last Android 12 beta as a new phone and restore with Drive backup. After on October when Android 12 stable roll out for all. Can I just update it or do wipe data again to go from beta to stable firmware ?
Thanks
I'm interested to know too
Yes ! Do wipe data too for roll back to stable.
Android 12 comes the 4th October I stay it. It's more simple for me.
I came here looking with this exact question.
I'm on Android 11. If I enroll my phone now for A12 and it gets A12, will it just update to the release version when it releases? Or would I have to unenroll from the beta which will do a data wipe?
Thanks
I'm in the beta and yes you just get the stable build without wipe as OTA. Last Beta of Android 12 (SPB5.210812.002) is pretty stable.

You will get the release version via ota even if you install A12 beta.

Android 12 seems delayed for now

Just saw the October security update for A11. Saying it will be in a few weeks for A12 and some are thinking delayed until the P6 is for sale. So stop hitting that update button. lol
The did release it's for AOSP though.
Google releases Android 12 to AOSP, but no Pixel launch today
In a significant departure from previous years, Google today rolled out Android 12 to AOSP but did not launch on Pixel phones...

maybe someone can build and aosp rom of final Android 12.it would be interested

Google has indeed released the driver binaries for the Pixel 5 hardware, so it's entirely possible.
The final release should be just around the corner, though. Beta 5 is typically the last beta release before final.

For the previews and betas you needed to flash the OTA.zip, boot to fastboot, flash the vbmeta.img (wiping the first time you do it) with disabling verity and verification, then flash the patched boot.img to retain root with the Pixel 5
Took the Ota. Android 12 looks the same as the most recent beta.

The build numbers are almost identical, I don't think they changed much if anything - Beta 5 was 210812.002, current factory is 210812.015
I wish Google had a changelist for each build.
