I took it into the Sprint store yesterday afternoon, and they did the same things I tried to do and had no luck. So tried taking it to an Apple store and had no idea you had to go on an appointment basis, and it was so late by the time we got there that the only walk in they had available was about 10-20 minuttes later, and at that point it was close to 6:00 at night, so nobody felt like waiting that long, so will just call Sprint and have them send me a new one. I just don't get what would cause my phone to go bonkers like that just over an update. It was doing this crazy thing where it just was showing me the progress bar, which wasn't going anywhere, so I plugged it into the computer, and it started to download from there, but the progress bar on the phone was still sitting, then it all went to Hell in a handbasket from there.
