remove the battery and plug it into your PC, launch desktop manager and maybe you can downgrade. Have you tried that?

Another reason to wait till there is something worth upgrading to!

There is always risk when upload a new OS.

Try JL CMDR. See if that can detect the device.. Pull battery for 30seconds and then pop it back in.

.147 initially seems warmer and things hourglass for a bit. Then it settles down and is quite stable. Give it a day or so and then decide.
