As for me, I was in touch with Onyx customer service. They ended up posting a much larger update file for 3.2.1 (1.2 GB). I successfully updated using this. I lost root in the process. I was able to pull boot.img from my device through edl, patch the boot.img with Magisk and flash the patched img, thus restoring root.
Ok, thanks. Just let me wrap my head around this process. The whole process of pulling boot.img patching it and applying isn't something I'm used to. I apologize I'm still confused a bit.

I understand the get the update and install it part, obviously.

Do you pull the boot.img via edl from the v3.2 or after the update (from v3.2.1)?

Do you then take that boot.img as is and copy that to the root directory of the devices, open Magisk and patch it and then apply it after that?
