Pulling the network cable right after clicking the update button, correct?

Correct. Took a million times, but I finally got it!

To clarify... are you speaking of the USB from phone to computer, or the Ethernet network cable providing the Internet connection?

Can someone who received the update verify which OS Version you now have?

And right as I'm trying to get my laptop shipped out for a broken LCD! I am so mad right now... I wish there were OTA updates like the old days. =(

Could you specify the steps of this procedure? No update for me yet, and I am willing to try this method.

It would be the ethernet network cable. I did it by disabling WIFI as I am on wireless internet. But pulling the Ethernet cable should accomplish the same thing.
