try updating your phone manually, if you can’t yet, you will soon enough.

You should have had to be connected to WiFi and have approved the download. My fiancee’s phone randomly went into a bootloader screen a couple days ago. Shut it off and turned it back on and it was fine.

ota pushes through 3g you don’t need to be connected. and i remember when i updated once before i manually downloaded it and then it gave me something like 30 seconds to respond to the install or it was going to install on its own i believe.

Yea mine does not turn off or on haha it only goes to the bootloader screen. I’m still waiting for gingerbread sbf to finish downloading so I can try using rsd lite to fix it

If you hold down home while powering up do you get to the screen with the android robot and a big exclamation point? If so hit search, then wipe. You might not have to bother with sbf’ing.
