OnePlus 3 update fixes auto-restart bug, but brings LTE problems and breaks Android Pay
June 06, 2025
TheOnePlus 3is currently receiving a hotfix patch for a pesky auto-restart bug and issues with call quality. Unfortunately though, the update toOxygenOS3.2.4 seems to deliver more bugs than it squashes. Don’t expect any new features or even theAugust security patch.
Besides call quality and auto-reboot, the 26 MB update changelog also mentions “various fixes and carrier optimizations”. Unfortunately, users are reporting that the front-facing cameras auto-focus issue has not been fixed,Android Payno longer works and Doze still breaks notifications. TheQuadrootervulnerabilities also remain unchanged as they will come in the August security patch.
Oddly, multiple users are also reporting constant drops from LTE, with their devices dropping to 3G and even 2G within minutes of acquiring an LTE signal. If this issue affects you, you can lock your OnePlus 3 to LTE by opening the dialer, entering ##4636## and then inPhone information, tapPreferred network typeand selectLTE only. Although even this workaround isn’t working for some in the OnePlus forum.
One can only assume OnePlus is now working on a new hotfix patch to solve this new batch of issues. There is a new thread for reportingproblems with OxygenOS 3.2.4and the community is getting pretty shirty about other long-standing issues with the OnePlus 3 that still haven’t been fixed. And constantly asking for theOnePlus 2update. AndMarshmallow for the OnePlus X…
If you dare to install the update, you may grab the full flashable ROM or OTA zipshere. Otherwise just keep an eye out for the update notification or check manually through settings (try checking with a VPN activated if you can’t get the OTA in your region).
Have you seen these problems on your OnePlus 3? Thoughts on OnePlus’ software updates?
