Hiya!
I installed the rom just today and its amazing
Everything feels more fluid and quick
Im just having one problem
WhatsApp just closes/Crashes when i try to type in groups
This doesn't happen on individual chats, only group chats, i tried re-installing the app but still happens
Do i have to use WhatsApp business instead?..
Please include logs.

weird
It doesn't crash on mine
try to get logs and sent it here or in discord/telegram server
How do i get the logs?
Sorry im still new to this phone
I followed a tutorial and did the "bug report" and "System Tracing" on developer options
And all im left is with a text file that only shows junk and random colors but i think its the app im using to read it..

Edit: i tried re-installing the app once more but this time the playstore was marking errors when searching for updates but still worked fine, i just couldn't download whatsapp so i installed it from an apk, il take it as it was just my phone so no worries on that part
Now i can send messages on groups

But then while using another app my phone got completely blocked up and rebooted
The phone has blocked 2 times today while using different apps..

Random reboots are an issue with the Galaxy A50's vendor with the Wi-Fi driver not being able to handle a lot of system load. It is reported to be happening on devices running stock as well since One UI 3.1 was released.

The issue has been heavily alleviated on Fresh 3.2.3, which is being released in a week or two. :>

Fresh 3.2.3 stable is now rolling out to all devices starting tonight! This release brings huuuuuuuuuuuuge performance, stability, and security improvements to your device running Fresh.

Highlights include:
- Samsung's August 2021 security updates for the Galaxy A50
- Mint, a new kernel designed for efficiency and stability
- Samsung RAM Plus support is here just a week after Samsung released it on the Galaxy A52s!
- Alleviate device crashes due to Samsung's bad Wi-Fi driver. Random reboots fixed. :>
- Major improvements to memory management, performance, and battery life. Fresh's flagship experience is much smoother and much more enjoyable.
- Updates to some applications to One UI 3.1.1, more to come on Fresh 3.3!

A more "beefy" changelog is available on Fresh Hub! A more comprehensive changelog will be available from the *tensevntysevn* website once full packages are available.

Update regressions:
- Google SafetyNet will not pass by default on several devices. This is to be fixed by next update.
- Camera app still crashes when selecting ratio on Fun Mode. This is an issue from 3.2.2, and will be fixed very soon.

As this update is currently rolling out, it will be slow to download on your device. Wait for a couple of hours (or a day) until SourceForge mirrors the update to a server near you.

Update. Today!

I found a link teach how to fix but I dont know does it apply to A50?

And still dont know how to do as the guide

This only applies to lockups caused by Android's rollback protection. The Dual Messenger bug is caused by Samsung's change to the keystore that assumes encryption is always enabled to be able to add and unlock "managed users".

What Fresh build are you on, as well as your baseband/bootloader version?

Your carrier(s) on both SIMs does not support Voice-over-LTE (VoLTE), hence mobile data going to 3G when you make the call.

I'm not sure with the second SIM, but I'm assuming it's the same as above.

    FAQ.png


    Q: What bootloader does this need?
    A: For the best experience, Fresh 4 recommends having a baseband version of CVAx, January 2022 and later. Installing on Android 10 will cause issues, and is not supported.

    Q: Do I need to flash anything after installing Fresh?
    A: There is no need! Fresh is already pre-patched. Simply flash all mods you need, as well as data recovery ZIPs (ie. data restore packages) and Reboot to System.

    Q: Does X feature work?

    A: Yes! Try it for yourself. 😉

    Q: How do I update my Fresh installation?
    A: It's very easy! Simply go to Settings, tap Software updates and update away.

    Q: Do you track my usage?
    A: Fresh's services include analytics from CloudFlare and Google Analytics in order to optimize them for future releases. No personally-identifiable information is sent to Fresh.

    Q: I have more questions

    A: Visit the Fresh Wiki here for more information on Fresh's features and more.​

    Please. Don't hope custom rom will be perfect like stock rom. The developer spend much time to build it, that is not easy. If you think this rom does not suitable for you, just leave it. I like this rom, if you felt a little lags I can except it because he combined and ported some apps from other Stock ROM to A50. Enjoy!
    i appreciate you.
    I am From INDIA and after installed this rom in my A50 mobile, it's working fine without facing any single problem.
    I clearly mention some bugs to rom developer and i am very sure that he will fix all bugs in next upcoming update.
    Currently not even a single rom developer doing this much effort on their rom but FreshRom developer build a great rom with a lots of flagship features.
    Dear Mr. Rom Developer, i completely support you for your fabulous work and i request you, please ignore some nonsense demands or comments and complete your work as you can do for our A50 mobile.
    I have an advice to everyone, if you guys cannot appreciate FreshRom developer, at least do not stop him at doing something good.
