OxygenOS 4.1.7 comes with Google's latest August security patch, fix for touch latency, battery life improvements and more. OnePlus 3 and ST owners are advised to clear their storage the firmware weighs a whopping 1.4GB.
How to install OxygenOS update on OnePlus 3 and 3T via OTA:
1. Once you get firmware notification, select "Yes, I'm in."
2. After the software is downloaded, select "Install now."
3. After the software is installed, your phone will re-start automatically.
