How to Get the Official Android 7.0 Nougat Update on Your OnePlus 3/3T Right Away

So I just VPN'd to Canada and snagged the 4.0.1 update. Booted to recovery, cleared the system cache and rebooted. I still see 4.0, not 4.0.1 in about phone/phone status. Update log shows OOS 4.0.1 (from system updates page). Looks like a minor discrepancy there.

Seems like a skippable update that isn't worth the hassle for me.

There would, "appear", to be 2 sorts of updates.

1. Is a 36MB Hotix OTA patch for those already on OxygenOS 4.0

2. The full 1.4 GB firmware download for those updating from Marshmallow.

I am away from my computer and cannot check further.

There's always 2, if you're rooted the full system package is downloaded so that the system partition can be fully replaced when updating. You lose root and any customisation you've done (for me, primarily substratum layers and teamblackout's YouTube app).

I stand corrected. I reconnected my VPN, changed regions to Canada, and checked for updates. Again, I snagged the short file update, but this time it went through an installation routine. Now 'about phone' reports 4.0.1.

I'm not sure why it didn't take the first time. Likely operator error on my end using the VPN. I dunno. How hard can it be?

I'm going to try it now since i upgraded to 7.0 using the same app.

Just leave the VPN on this time. It should be a very short download if you just get the 36 MB file.

Yeah thats what did it. I tried to disable after downloading started and it didn't like that. I'm assuming you did the same?

Yep. I dunno why it didn't impact the large 4.0 update file, but it certainly seemed to affect the small 36MB file update. Shrug.

In the future, you wanna enable the VPN, tap check for updates and then disable the VPN and wait ten seconds or so before clicking download.

Thanks for that tip. I figured I somehow goofed it up. I thought starting the download then quickly disconnecting the VPN would work. Oops!
