Hello,
gambled and SEUS said a new firmware update was available for my W995, so being a fool, i backed it all up and ran the procedure.
No errors, unplug and powered her on.

Now its been sat at the Please Wait with full status bar for about 3hrs now.

Can i just power cycle it?
what is best way to do this?
Will it do damage?
Is my phone shot?

thoughts and assistance appreciated.
