What bugs do you have? No plans on replacing my OP3 in 2018.
Fiio external dac amp
WiFi not roaming between ap and generally being weak (supposedly fixed in next release) and mobile network randomly dropping off requiring a power cycle (seems well reported on op forum bugs). Those are the two big issues but certainly not limited to those.
Weird, dunno what to suggest, I bought the cheapest OTG cable on amazon and it worked straight away, lots of stuff on google saying Fiio devices work as well.
I've had the bug where it just drops mobile network, switching to aeroplane mode and back again fixes it for me saving a reboot but there was a point where it would lose data signal after connecting to a wifi network and just not connect to 3g/4g, seems to have stopped doing that even though it hasn't had an update.

Has anyone used their European OnePlus 3 in the US? If so, I'm looking for some advice regarding network speeds.
I am currently with Three so I benefit from their 'Feel At Home' roaming. However, I found out that this only lets me use 3G and not 4G LTE so my other option would be to get a SIM card in the US.
From reading around, it seems AT&T and T-Mobile support one 4G LTE band that my phone also supports. Does anyone know how good the coverage/speeds are?

Yeah sounds about right. 4G would be reserved for AT&T/T-Mobile customers and users roaming just get 3G?
edit- just re-read your post. I'm not sure about speeds sorry.
For both 3 and 3T.

No mention of the WiFi or mobile data fixes.

Glad I sold up and moved on a couple weeks back.

Capacitive buttons gave up on my wife's 3t so it's off to Poland for repair. Not ideal as I assume it will be a few weeks.
Let's us know how you get on and what the bill is.

Fingers crossed no charge. Still in warranty
As my OP3 is still going strong, and I can't justify an upgrade (not much jumping out at me as essential on a new handset) I'm toying with the idea of switching over to Lineage OS to keep getting updates, and the like.
Pretty sure that it won't kill my banking app (HSBC), but may screw integration with work apps (MS Company Portal has a fit about unlocked bootloaders and rooting, but I now have a work handset so have an alternative option) so interested to know any other OP3 owners that have moved away from Oxygen OS, how easy it is to load a new ROM and what the experience has been like
