"Can't update phone" when trying to update to wp 8.1?

My phone won't let me update to the new windows 8.1 update. It downloads the update, installs it, gets to the screen with the cogs, stays there for a while with no progress showing on the bar, and then just reboots and displays the message "Can't update phone". I'm running the preview for developers on a Nokia Lumia 820, with plenty of memory on a microSD card availiable.
 
But in case you are not one of these because generally they get an error number make sure under the Dev preview app that it is set right. I have heard from others that sometimes after the wp8.1 update that it unchecks itself and the user has to open it back up and reset it. Hope this helps.
