The NSU also got locked up for me showing "estimated time: 1 second".
After one hour of waiting I unplugged the phone, recharged for 30 minutes and then reflashed it with the separate flash software following the instructions given in this topic. Now everything works fine!

It takes a few minutes to reflash, but it should show you the progress on the computer. Have you managed to use flasher-3.5 as I said?

All i'm seeing when I press the "u" key was a faint nokia (not totally lit up like the above pic)
I'm charging the battery right now. Does it usually vibrates and status light stay on for couple of seconds and the usb icon then disappear.
I just did again same thing happen when I enter the file and prompt me to allow. I clicked allow and just saw a flash of cmd window for like 1 sec and disappear. No status of flashing.

Battery was full during update.
After unplugging the USB from the phone what do i do? Should I turn off the phone to reset? or update again?
How do I reflash?
