Okay so here's how to fix the stuck update.
Ok so here is the play-by-play from my third attempt.
-Hard reset/power cycle.
-Back to old UI without Live connection (is connected to internet as accounted for by network trouble shooter)
-Attempt to launch any game on HD as it will launch the update prompt (but may take a minute for the prompt to pop up so just keep trying to launch a game)
-Waits for update prompt, takes it
-Update downloads/installs
-Console does required reboot
-Powers up, update begins being applied
-At about 50% it does that quasi-reboot (connection to TV lost, power light dims... reboots)
-Progress to applying update resumes but at about 40%... it gets to about 60% where it usually stops... does another quasi-reboot, and then continues
-Applying update is replaced with preparing console
-Finished and with new UI.
IDK what I did different this time, but when I did the hard reset, I let it stand powered down for five minutes.
I hope you guys and girls with this issue get it fixed asap, Fingers crossed for you!"
