Pre-ICS update semi-bricking phone...

Anyone else have this issue?

My wife got a rezound from assurion as a replacement. It comes with 2.3.4 android OS. The phone is downloading a 'Pre-ICS 7mb update file" and trying to apply it. During this process it downloads, reboots, tries to apply update, and then boots back up and semi-bricks the phone. I get a failed upgrade notification and the 4g and verizon network is unavailable. To fix i can factory reset the phone wiping the data and sdcard. It reboots and i have to start over.

I found a post online where someone described something similar they suggest the following:

1. Turn Off Wifi

2. In programs force close and clear cache on; updater

3. Pull battery and back in and power on.

4. Go directly to updater check new and try again.

Think this will work?

I would love to get to ICS on the phone but this constant forcing the update and bricking the phone is annoying and my non tech wife with no service.
