Changes since 3.2.3 Stable:

⚙️ Core:
- Update TWRP to 3.6.0 and Mint to 11.6.0 Stable.
- Upstream to Linux kernel 4.14.200 with stability and security improvements.
- Magisk v24.1 with support for Zygisk.
- Upstream to current Samsung stock kernel sources.
- Improvements over the past two months. See Mint 11.6's changelog for more info.

📱 System:
- Changed system base to the Samsung Galaxy A51 (SM-A515F).
- January 2022 security updates for both the vendors and system. Includes Samsung's 3.1.1 backports to 3.1.
- Full architectural change to how the ROM is built. Vendor should now be usable with AOSP GSIs with little to no issues.
- Fixes and improvements to RAM Plus. It should now fully work than 3.2.3, which is half-broken.
- Various performance and memory management improvements.

💫 Experience:
- Significant majority of apps from One UI 4. Ports include stock apps such as Dialer, Contacts, and Messages.
- One UI 4-esque theming for non-port apps, including the Settings, Camera, and System UI. These are non-intrusive, meaning that apps can be updated yet keep the theme.
- Emojis from One UI 4, with fallback on AOSP 12 emojis.
- Added support for 'Protect Battery'. (Device Care > Battery > More battery options)

🪲 Issues:
- There is no over-the-air update support. I have better plans to fully integrate software updates within One UI but I wasn't able to get to do it, as well as make the infrastructure to make it possible. I have no plans to add OTA support for this release.
- I have tried my best to keep themes compatible with this release despite the non-intrusive One UI 4 theming. Remaining issues are not fixable at this point, everything I can fix is fixed.
- Send logs (include logcat, kernel logs, and device messages/dmesg) and report.

📝 Installation Notes:
- Magisk v24.1 completely removes MagiskHide and the online module repository. This is intentional and is NOT a bug.
- Search online on how to pass SafetyNet using Magisk v24.
- Your addons will NOT migrate from 3.2 to this release. This is NOT a bug and is intentional due to architectural changes (see above). If you're from Fresh 3.2, you will also be detected as a new user during installation.
- While the translation project for Zest hint at new features, them missing from this release is intentional. I have no plans to add additional features to Fresh 3 at this point. They will come in a future Fresh release.
- As this is a legitimate One UI update from 3.2, you will experience performance issues after update. Regenerating ART cache takes a while (and is only done when the device is idle, and in some cases only while charging). You can use Galaxy App Booster to speed up the process.
- The following features have been removed: Samsung DeX; Live Blur.
- The following services have been closed by Samsung: Places tab in Phone app.

This release also deprecates Fresh Hub and its current online services. They will remain online as long as possible but no updates will be released for the old Fresh Hub app at this point. Work for the new Hub app is also shelved as I get FreshROMs back to its roots of simplistic and fast development time. This will allow me to work on actual issues better and will make FreshROMs less of a burden to me.

👇 Downloads:
Install using recovery of choice. Only addons with version 12.4.0.0 and above works with this release.

I would like to personally send this message (not thru a bot) to thank everyone who has beta tested this release. This will never be possible without the awesome Beta Testers. 💛

I would also like to thank everyone who quickly jumped in to Zest's translation project, like, 8 languages in less than 24 hours. See them in Settings > Zest > About Zest > Localization/Translations.

Of course I wouldn't forget the Community who has always been there. All of you guys are awesome and is pretty much the reason why I even pursued publicly releasing 3.4 Preview in the first place.

From a suburban home, writing this post on a laptop, thank you. Thank you so much for supporting this project. :>

This is @TenSeventy7, signing off for the meantime.

Thanks SourceForge! And thanks to you, too! 🧡

Updated TWRP and SHRP to now support both DTB and DTBO backup, restore, and image install. It's also updated to TWRP 3.6.1.

It should now be easier to go between AOSP and One UI-based ROMs without having to reflash stock. Just make sure to back them up first. ;>

DISCONTINUATION OF THE VANCED PROJECT

Vanced has been discontinued. In the coming days, the download links will be taken down. The Discord server, Telegram chat and subreddit will stay for the time being. We know this is not something you wanted to hear, but it's something we had to do. We want to thank you all for the support over the years.

Edit (1): The existing version will continue to work.

Edit (2): It was done due to legal reasons.

If you're a registered beta tester for Fresh 3.2 and above, and is part of the Betta Community on Fresh's Discord server, check your Discord for a sweet surprise. 😉🎉

It has come to my attention that several users have been seeding Fresh builds unofficially through forums such as XDA and 4PDA.

Please avoid and refrain downloading from unofficial sources.

Only download Fresh builds from official sources such as the TenSeventy7 website and GitHub, and Fresh's official SourceForge repository.

Elections are coming near and fast in the Philippines! It's four days left until one of the country's biggest and noisiest election seasons come to a close as Filipinos vote for the national positions who will 'take care' of the PH for the next six years.

The Fresh Project does NOT endorse any political candidate, on both local and national positions. I stand by the right of every one of us to choose freely and without influence.

I just have three reminders, though. Know the candidates, vote if you can, and above all, vote for the right people. Nasa kamay natin ang bukas! 🇵🇭
