As well as the regular Oxygen firmware for the OnePlus 3, there is also a beta test build that stock or unlocked/rooted users can flash to their phone. This is called the Community Beta and is designed to test out new features for the OnePlus 3 which may, or may not, be included in the regular Oxygen firmware in future. It also contains bug fixes for reported issues and has the Google security update for October.

This build is for competent and experienced users and the thread on the OnePlus 3 forum describes how to download and install it. These Community Beta's are, like the regular Oxygen builds, updated OTA. Please read the instructions and thread, carefully and thoroughly, before proceeding.
