Steam deck discover Store not connecting to repo

I've had a few issues with the discover store only working sporadicly in desktop mode amd when looking it up found ne good solutions that don't require a system restart or work reliably.

The error I had was something along the lines of a lost connection due to a refused TSL-Handshake these are the errors I get trying to refresh the available updates for example:

I press update All and get:

no metadata URIs for vendor-directory

I press it again:

the application [...]/x86_64/stable requires the runtime org.kde.Platform/x86_64/6.4 which was not found

and again:

aborted due to failure (While pulling runtime/org.kde.Platform.Locale/x86_64/6.4 from remote flathub: Peer failed to perform TLS handshake: Error recieving data: Connection reset by peer)

I would love it if anyone can help me with this as I would like to be able to reliably update my packages (and install new ones which often jeilds the same errors)

I have tried installing over the terminal, which results in the same errors. I have tried it on different Networks. I have restartes flatpak-sytem-helper. service as well as wpa_suppclient.service I have tried flatpack repair. Restarts of the whole system work occasionally but not reliably.

  • What version of steamOS are you running (stable, beta)? Has this been an issue across more than one update? Something seems wrong with the network/driver on this. A while back I had issues with discover not actually writing to the disk at more than a few Kb/s. There’s a few things you can try:

    1. Switch update channel to force and update. You can switch to beta from stable and retest. If this fixes it but you want to stay on stable switch the branch back to force another update back,

    2. Hold I think it was volume minus and power to reach the boot menu from powered off. Try it on both boot options to see if the current boot partition has a bad file on it or something.
