My phone initially crashed too. The whole process just froze on the computer and on the phone. I unplugged the phone then pulled the battery. I turned the phone back on and it said something like, "error, update did not finish" or something along those lines. The computer said there was an error and if I wanted to recover. I pushed yes and started the process all over. It worked. I am now unrooted. All the bloatware is back. I just stuck them in a folder. No problems with battery or lag.

Just try it again, it took me a couple tries on different computers. Kies on Mac said there weren't any updates. Window 7 64 bit wouldn't even install Kies, it just completely froze all 3 times that I tried. It ended up working my old Windows 7 32 bit computer. The whole process took about an hour once it started to work.
