ICS Update stuck on "Upgrading Media Database

[RichC]

Ok, Started upgrade at 2 this morning, awoke to "upgading Media database" at 0540 this morning and now it is 12 hours later since I started the update with the same screen. Yes I have music as it is my music player when doing things and a few pics. Frustrating to say the least.

Anyone have an idea, Do I ride it out, do I wait longer, pull the battery and restart, do a Factory reset?

I finally decided to remove the Battery and see what would happen. Started fine, going through a bunch of start up stuff, seems to be running fine although a little slow.

Your gallery may be broken now...

There were warnings posted about having too many media files (temporarily move them before updating) during the update process.

I had a couple of issues after the install, backed up everything, completed a hard reboot and now working like a dream!

What are the fixes with the Gallery/Music files. I cannot access either.

With all threads on updating, it would take me a while to find that info, but I believe it involved doing a factory reset.

I'll try to find the post .

This post has some suggestions, not the one i was looking for though.
