Neo V Update from 2.3.4 to 4.0.2.A.0.42

I tried to connect via pc companion and everything went well for the first time..at the last moment during the MTP connection a crash message came with Win 7 hence PC companion had a close

Since then i am unable to connect via MTP and it says no phone connected, but via MSP it connects happily

So now stuck... unable to update to 4.0.2.A.0.42

Please Advise

instead of PC Companion try Update Service

Update Service (SEUS)

How to install it

You need to

go to settings -> applications -> check unknown sources

download IO File Manager

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.openintents.filemanager&feature=search_result

download the backup & restore app, transfer it to your SD card, use OI file manager to find it -> tap on it -> install it

Contacts

just to play it safe sync your contacts w/ google if you haven't already

open your phonebook

press MENU button -> tap on Send Contacts -> select all -> send it to your email

on your computer

-> download the file -> go to your gmail -> click on contacts -> click on more actions -> on the drop down menu click on "import" -> choose the file -> and click import

Apps

Don't worry so much about backing up your apps

on your computer go to

market.android.com -> log in -> click on My Library -> and send all your apps to your phone

SMS/MMS

if you don't want to use the backup & restore app then

Install "backup SMS" to back up your SMS and MMS to your Gmail

or your SMS use

"backup & restore SMS"

or for your MMS use "Save MMS"

Also if the update it's not available in your country/network just yet or if you want to debrand your phone you can manually update your phone

if it says that you have the latest update try again but this time remove the SD and SIM cards

if there's an error while trying to download the udpate

turn off your firewall and/or antivirus

no, Ice Cream Sandwich is not available, there is only ONE phone in the whole world that has Android 4.0, and that is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. we will get 4.0 later on.
