That's bad news. redrage. Looks like the FW upgrade is a big PITA. :(
The phone automatically starts installing stuff probably because of some 3rd party apps having been installed on the MicroSDHC card. Yep, formatting it and trying it again could be a good idea. Also, not keeping the MicroSDHC card in the card-slot while hard-resetting could be a good idea.
I'd heard Nokia Maps had given issues to quite a few phones (across a few models) with new FW updates. But that is only when the Maps program is started.
