And not only that, but the phone crashed while the facebook app was installing. Now it cannot be launched nor uninstalled. If I want to use facebook I have to hard reset the phone AGAIN.
No problems here except heating nd battery drain

That is not what I said at all. I purposefully skipped restoring from a backup to rule out any problem related to the old settings, and I am still getting reboots. Please read before replying.
Misread your post, the capital letters and bold type make it look like you were complaining that your phone didn't restore itself to a backup.

Constant Rebooting... DO NOT UPDATE TO WP8.1
This!! The update has been fairly smooth for me. The heating and battery drain is sorta rapid now. Possibly due to Location and Cortana being always on. Battery Saver shows Cortana as the main guzzler. Apart from that, great update.
To the OP - I strongly suggest you go for a hard reset. If your info is backed onto Onedrive, getting your settings and apps back is a cinch. Lumia 920.
