OnePlus has now rolling out the OxygenOS 4.1.7 update to its OnePlus 3 and 
3T smartphones and it brings about much-awaited touch latency improvements
 to the smartphones. Apart from this, the update also brings along battery o
ptimisations and Android security patch for the month of August as well. Notably, 
if users have not updated Google Hangouts, it will be automatically removed with
 the update.

To recall, the OnePlus 3 and 3T smartphone users started reporting the touch
 latency issues with the smartphones last year itself. With the OxygenOS 4.1.7 
update, the company says that it has enhanced the system fluidity, brought 
about battery optimisations, and updated the Android security patch updated
 to August. Apart from these changes, the company also claims to have fixed 
several bugs regarding the platform with latest update. In a tweet posted on 
Tuesday, Carl Pei said, "Saw some confusion about this: OxygenOS 4.1.7 for
3/3T does indeed come with touch latency improvements."

OnePlus says that the update will remove the Hangouts app, if it was not 
updated from Google Play, due to a request made by Google. The OxygenOS 
4.1.7 update has been claimed to fix a sound channel error that showed up
while recording videos, an issue where calls were being routed to speaker 
accidentally by some third-party apps, and a rendering issue in Kannada language.

Notably, the update also brings about the fix for the App Locker third party 
app issue. Recently, it was discovered that an app launcher app from Google
 Play could be used to easily bypass the app lockers offered on OxygenOS. 
It is good to know that the company has acted swiftly towards solving the issue.
