Worth it to update to Nougat now?

I have an update pending for 3 weeks now, but I did read that there were some problems.
With the Playstore, ringer volume, battery, wireless, photo quality and focus..
Not sure if those are exceptions (since people with problems are much louder), or a rule..
Is there a OP3 Nougat review somewhere, that lists potential bugs?

Is a good update!

I make it a point to clean flash after backing up. I am using only OOS from the beginning. And as far as possible I download from the original source. It may delay the availability but every single download and installation is successful. The only time I faced an issue was when I downloaded OOS recovery image from a posted link and not from OP website. I am not saying that all posted links are bad but most of the issues arise from bad downloads, not following the directions scrupulously and updating (as against a clean install).
I am yet to face any serious issues.

Thanks!
I suppose I might cave in just go with the flow. I AM looking forward to some Nougat OOS4 features.

I hestitated to move from 3.2.8 to N, mainly because of lack of xposed and custom kernel support but also due to some bug reports. 10 days ago I finally did it and don't regret it at all! Made a full backup of my userdata to PC (TWRP and Titanium) and then a clean flash of OOS 4.0.2. Rooted and now I also run the latest eng.stk kernel. Totally satisfied, although I still miss xposed...

You want xposed now = dont update
You can wait for exposed = update
In my eyes there is no other reason than xposed not to update

I couldn't live without xposed and I kept on coming back to 3.2.8 ...

Thanks
I don't root, I don't flash, I don't change kernels, I don't use xposed..
But i could backup, if root is not required for that?

For the people that dont want to upgrade to nougat because of xposed: i was one of them but mainly because of gravitybox (center clock and dt2s in status bar) and youtube adaway.... Check this:

it is because of gravitybox but the features i want most are: hardware button remapping, net speed meter in statusbar and percentage battery icon (i know 3minit, but dont really like it).
and ofc also youtube adaway and youtube background playback.

Still rocking op3lite (oos 3.2.7)

unlock bootloader and install TWRP, make a backup and then download Experience ROM and flash, so if u do not like nougat u can just go back to MM easily

The 4.0.2 update is great, I see the battery lasts more time (best I did was 48 hours active with 4 hours of screen time and 4 of call time, localization always active to high precision), the phone is super fast, so what else do you want?

I'm very happy with 4.0.2 as a light user. The battery is certainly better and I typically get around 3 hours SOT with 3 days of standby. :victory:
There are a few minor bugs but on the whole, its a great update.
Hats off to OnePlus. :highfive:

Big 'NO' if you travel a lot and come across situations like you roam between various networks. Because playstore doesn't download a thing on mobile data while roaming. It is not a OnePlus 3 specific issue tho.
Edit: Playstore bug seems to be fixed now. I must say it is safe to upgrade to 7.1.1. Running stable and smooth now.

Nougat reviews?

So now that people are getting 7.0, can we get some feedback? I'm itching to upgrade, but 6.0.1 works so well that I'm scared. Battery life? Performance? Pros, cons?
Edit: Also please detail your upgrade path, eg. Did you hard reset / wipe data? Did you sideload the OTA or are you running a ROM?

Battery's same as MM
Performance same as MM
All working.
Pros: Multitasking (Window's way)
Better notification bar and settings
Root it's now available
Can change the DPI without failures.
Settings redesigned.
Cons: Isn't Xposed available...Yet.

Did you do a hard reset as well, or just an upgrade with existing data? If upgrade, you haven't had the stuttering issues I've seen reported?

I upgrade with TWRP thanks to @flashallthetime
Follow his instructions and all be good.
No bugs for me. No issues.
I did a dirty flash, so no hard reset

Ok, sounds like you flashed a ROM then. Thanks

I received OTA update. No stuttering issue.. Performance is top notch. Battery life is awesome just like MM. Coming from 5X i have been missing double tapping recents to switch between apps on MM, but since the update I'm super happy

I have some stuttering / lagging when I swipe through the homescreens and open the notification drawer.
Performed OTA upgrade in the reteu channel. Seems not a too big issue, but still noticable.

When did you get your OTA and what is your location?

Germany. Got it on 13th February.

Ten days on and it still hasn't rolled out. I wonder if they've found a problem of some kind.

Probably the performance issues hold up the global rollout.

I sideloaded the reteu OTA a week ago. So far there is no change from MM on battery life and performances, the phone is still smooth and super reactive. What I consider as an improvement over MM are the notifications, the split screen and switch between the last two apps, the notification volume fix (gave me a heart attack the first time I got an SMS) and the DPI changer.
I didn't clear the cache not factory reseted the phone, I just sideloaded the OTA like I would've done with a regular OTA.

Is Now on Tap available on Nougat? I highly depend on that.

A link to my short review of sideloaded RETEU in another thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71222470&postcount=1365
Bottom line: I have no issues, everything runs very well. Nougat is the best Android so far for me.

Yes, it is. It's a Google Play Services related setting.

Ok,so i tried nougat (the prerooted one from here) and went back to MM cause i dont like the display colours on nougat.they look washed to me.i like it better in marshmallow.maybe just me,maybe just the rom.and i had problems with whatsapp notifications.

Any retus owners get the nougat update yet? I'm using a custom ROM right now so I don't know.

Nope. I'm giving it another couple weeks

I received the ota update and did a factory reset. The only problem I'm facing so far is that I miss a lot of notifications of Gmail and Whatsapp mainly. I have to wake up the phone or even open the app to get the new mails and messages. Could this have some to do with the battery optimization options? In MM the same settings where set with no issues.

I've had this same issue with Gmail notifications on marshmallow for years now. I don't think it's a nougat thing

Just got the OTA 8.2.1.0 MAGMIDL update - should I install?

Not sure if this is a stable build. Should I go ahead and install?

Also got it offered here, Global 8.2.1.0.MAGMIDL on OTA. 706MB. It appeared just after opening the updater app.

I've installed and haven't noticed any major improvements. Fingerprint scanner seems to be working faster but may just be my imagination.

There is an UI imrovements where the text is now black for your 3rd party music player in notification cards. Also, I may be going crazy but my battery lasts longer...

Sorry, I never had that problem before, and I don't have it now

activate fingerprint and use it some time. after that check Android system usage. Also check wake look time for Android system.

Please check it installing Wakelock Detector [LITE] from Google Play Store and start it.
Then when it's time to charge the battery start it again, press the first of the three buttons on the top right corner and select "CPU Wakelock".
Tap on "Android System" and post a screenshot.

I've got it installed since Thursday. So far I would say the battery time is the same or slightly better. I do use the fingerprint scanner and I think it's slightly faster than before. Everything else, Bluetooth, Wifi and GPS so far working nice.
Only downside, the Security app had the cleaner function reactivated after the update. I'm pretty sure I had it disabled before. All other functions of the Security app seem to have kept their settings.

You are talking about 8.0.3.0?
That's because there was no problem with qfp-service on the previous version.
I think that's caused by a (bad) attempt to fix the fp reader after many complaints on the official forum.

Better fingerprint reader functionality (Its the only build with a working FP reader for me)
Worse battery life
Slight UI changes.
You decide.

In the meanwhile...
it seems that 8.2 Global Stable has been retired:

Did you enable notifications and badges? You can set the priority there. Just click on the app settings and select notifications. I have no issues.

yes i did all of that still sometimes i get sound and sometimes not..
i checked every single item and enabled anything related to notifications
even network signal is full and whenever i try to call or i get call it gives out of coverage
i m sure its software bug ...
i even changed region to so many but nothing
i wiped data after each install of rom
the only doubt i have is
in app settings in installed app
there is system notifications
no sound
and i press it i found all notifications are on

That's the problem with Chinese ROMs
I have a global version and np problems whatsoever.
Had the same problem with the Huawei honor note 8 Chinese.
Partial fix was to add widgets for all the apps that you can on the home page, or open each one up and keep them running in the background without closing them.

Is your bootloader unlocked? You will need to unlock it since it's a custom rom.

Same problem here with GMAIL only, I was receiving delayed notification(1 or 2 hours). Changed with k9, now works fine. I'm on MIUI 10 Global (no root, no bootloader a virgin one
From time to time, I receive a whatsapp message which wakes up the screen, but without any sound (very strange).
I'm quite unhappy with the notifications system

Yes thats what i have notifications come with no sound and only wake up screen light then second one with sound but i installed the global beta and its better than global stable so far with last update.

Basically what I had to do was manually turn on all notification sounds and pop ups. Some apps simply cannot be turned on like Google messages.

of course full device is buggy. uninstalling apps take 30 seconds and in game it will give a full screen notification of low battery. now if you're gaming this notification will make you loss a match. shtty miui. i just shattered this f3 and completely dead now.

Go back to 12.5.1, they don't limit the speed of SoC here (Still 3.1 Ghz instead of 2.7 Ghz)

i shattered the device on the floor and completely dead now. so no xiaomi again. full screen low battery notification forced me to go afk out of the game.
