"Installing software update.
Please do not interrupt"

the status bar showed it doing something with the percentage bar going up to 50% then it shut down and now when ever the phone turns back on its stuck on - "Installing software update.
Please do not interrupt". Please advise me on what i should do?

I also created a backup on my internal storage and on my memory card before i updated - Will this backup have all my contacts? Please help!!!
Have a look at my posts here (same issue - sort of - but I had added trouble with custom kernel:

I had to reflash the device (just rootfs re-flash NOT eMMC)

Backup should restore everything, but if you just reflash the OS your contacts etc should still be there, just restore the backup you made once you are done re-flashing and re-install your apps.

Guide to re-flashing is here:

Just follow the instructions for reflashing rootfs and everything should be fine
