I wouldn't worry too much because nobody can get the update to work. The download took 3 hours, it started updating and failed at 27%. The only option was to pull the battery (glad I wasn't first to try that). The phone reboots ok but with the old firmware. I'm downloading again (you'd think it would just use the files it downloaded already but nooooo) and it's just as slow. Will try the update this time and if it also fails then I'm leaving it until Samsung get their act together.

Hi, I had the same problem at first, then after downloading 7_7.1.47.8. I then restarting my PC. I was asked to install a new driver from samsung after this was completed I was then able to update my phone successfully. hope this helps you.
