Ever since the Amber update, I've never seen an app update.  I have to manually check the update status on apps by going to the Store and finding the app again, to note that an update is available.

Additionally, the phone still doesn't get the settings from my server re e-mail (push not working still, still on a fifteen minute cycle).  Never got it sorted.

I've also lost the Wallet PIN.

OK... bite the bullet, time for a reset.  Backed up everything except the Music (too big, and not worried about that).  Took self-pics of as many screens as I thought necessary.

And then the reset.

How long should those cogs spin for?  It's been over half an hour now.

It's bricked ain't it.

Cheers,  Duncan.
