This release, Beta 9, is for Android 7.0, Nougat on the OnePlus 3 models, A3000 & A3003, and here are some of the improvements over Beta 8, Nougat...

OxygenOS Open Beta 9 (N) for OnePlus 3

For those on the stock OnePlus Oxygen firmware who wish to swap to the Beta 9, Nougat, you can download and flash it by carefully reading the instructions, here...

OnePlus 3 OxygenOS Open Beta 9

Please read, carefully and thoroughly, all installation instructions in the thread. DO NOT attempt to use TWRP custom recovery to flash this firmware without reading the above thread, first.

N.B. This beta build is for competent and experienced users. ;)

(** Note: If you flash this Open Beta build, you’ll receive Open Beta OTAs (but not official OTAs). You’ll need to manually (clean) flash back to our official builds to continue receiving official OTAs. Rolling back to official OxygenOS versions require wiping data and cache.)
