Hey there, sorry to hear you're stuck with these APT errors even after trying dpkg fixes and grep commands—super frustrating when common solutions don't work!

First off, could you share a bit more detail? It's really hard to pinpoint the issue without seeing the exact error message you're getting, plus the full output from running sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade. Also, letting us know your distro version (like Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Debian 12, etc.) would help a ton.

That said, since you've already tried basic dpkg fixes, let's go through some more targeted steps you might not have tested yet:

• Force a full dpkg repair cycle: Sometimes the standard fix misses something. Run these commands one by one:

  sudo dpkg --configure -a
  sudo apt-get install -f
  sudo apt-get clean
  sudo apt-get autoclean
  sudo apt-get update --fix-missing
  sudo apt-get upgrade
  

• Check for locked APT processes: If another package manager (like Synaptic, Software Updater) is running in the background, it can block APT. Run this to kill any stuck processes:

  sudo lsof /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend
  sudo kill -9 <PID>  # Replace <PID> with the number from the previous command's output
  

  Then try running your update/upgrade commands again.

• Verify your sources.list file: Corrupted or invalid repo entries are a common culprit. Check for typos or outdated repos with:

  cat /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list | grep -v "^#" | grep -v "^$"
  

  Look for any lines that match the "404 Not Found" or invalid URL hints from your error output—you can comment those out by adding a # at the start of the line, then run sudo apt update again.

• Check for broken packages manually: Use this command to list packages marked as broken:

  dpkg -l | grep "^..r"
  

  If any show up, try removing them (carefully!) with sudo apt-get remove --purge <package-name>, then re-run the repair commands above.

Once you share the exact error message, we can drill down even more to get this fixed for you!
