Hello guys!

I've recently ran into a problem, where whenever I try to download anything from the internet using a browser, the download starts, but immediately gets paused and I'm not able to resume the download.
The download shows up in the Download Manager, but I'm not able to restart it from there.

The issue came of after installing the leaked Open Beta 9 few weeks ago, and present since. Currently I'm using FreedomOS 2.1, but before that, I was on Open Beta 9, first on the leaked one, then on the official one.
I've been through multiple full wipes, full flashes, the problem keeps sticking.
Tried to download with other browsers, Chrome Dev, Chrome Canary, Firefox, Dolphin, even tried using multiple Download Managers, none of them solved my problem.
Also tried clearing the cache of the Download Manager system app, resetting permissions for each app, tinker with Data Saver settings, without any luck whatsoever.

Please, if anybody has any possible solutions, suggestions, or anything regarding this problem, help me solve this.
Thank you!

Solution:
Somehow, I managed to find a solution.
When I wiped my entire phone storage, including the internal one while installing open beta 9, I made the Download folder manually to put the flashable files in. This was the problem, after renaming the folder, the OS created a new one and now all of my downloads are working correctly.
