It downloads 5.6.1.1 over WiFi and reboots every time it sleeps to try to install the update, it does this over and over. I've tried to download the update and install via USB as well, makes no difference.
Now though, it won't connect. I think it's because it's stuck on 5.4.4.2.
I was hoping someone might know a trick to force the update to install.

Maybe the battery is giving out while it tries to update.

That might help, if not, then freeze it before putting on the wall charger.
Literally, freeze it.
Put a soft cloth around it before freezing, so it does not gather moisture (humidity) when you later take it out of the freezer.
Put in freezer for at least over night, better if for 24 hours.
Remove from freezer (keep soft cloth on it), hook to wall charger, hold power button long enough for it to reboot (even if you see nothing on the screen).
Ignore the light if it is on, you can't trust it until the device is running normally again.
Leave on wall charger at least two days (as mentioned above), or longer would be even better, it can take a long time to reboot (days) in some cases.
Note, you may have to repeat the whole routine above two or three times.
