This is my first time posting here so pls excuse any formal errors i might make. Running SFOS 3.2.0.12 (Turronsuo) on XA2 (H4133)

Two days ago i attempted an update of the OS to version #3.2.1.20 using the "Settings > update" dialogue. this update finished downloading and then got stuck on "waiting for connection ". thinking this might be a progress display issue i connected the power supply and let the device rest for ~12 hours with the update dialogue open. In the background i ran a log on wifi usage, cpu consumption and ram to see if any progress / activity would become visible from the log. after 12 hours there was no apoarent activity, nor did the update gui show any changes. i rebooted the device after a quick web search yielded no results and repeated the process for another 12 hours. nothing. trying to update via terminal yielded the identical result. "clearing cache. WAITING" thinking this might be an issue to be experienced by a number of user in the future and as 0 results on these issues could be found on the web i opted to prospone the update to a later time or different version.

Now the real worry: whenever i attempt to install an rpm via the open repos, storeman or jolla store i get aborts and critical errors. storeman: An error ocurred - /etc/zypp/repos.d/ssu_openrepos-ade_release.repo: Section [openrepos-ade]: line 8 contains garbage [no '=' * in key]

Jolla: Critcal error the description of the error refuses to open.

on all android apk installs the istall just hangs indefinately.

rebuilding the app registry seems to work fine but does not eliminate the problem.

Never experienced anything like this. Help?
