It's done that for a couple of us including me. It'll work after you run the cab. We've got it rooted and have an updated recovery for it already as well.
New root method? New recovery also? Links?

I have stripped the JB update down to as low as I can think of bringing it, without having a JB cab file to rely on. I really hate all the bloatware and unnecessary files and I am still having a battery issue on JB that was not there on ICS. Is anyone experiencing any battery life issues.
No buddy.....battery is fine for me... Hell I fell asleep around 530am after updating, left my headphones plugged in and music going till I got up at 1030am, battery went from around 85-72% currently....

No battery life issues though oddly I now have "skips" in my bt headphones during music playback that weren't present on ICS? Very odd. Anyone else?

Scratch that must-have happened during the update. I wiped and reinstalled MP3 s and no skips

JB 4.1.2 UPDATE CAUSING PROBLEMS FOR SPECTRUM 2
Did you update to Spectrum 2 to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 when it became available earlier in the month? Is it working perfectly? Well if that’s the case, you’re one of the lucky ones. It appears that a growing group of people are having issues with the Jelly Bean update. A tipster told Phone Arena that Verizon has received numerous complaints on the matter. People are having issues with dropped phone calls, widgets not updating, and apps not working at all.
Some Android apps that worked previously don't work with the new update and may need to be updated to correct this issue. Until this is done, I recommend trying a alternative Android applications.
HOW TO DISABLE AUTOMATIC UPDATES
Go to >Settings >Developer Options and uncheck the "don't keep activities" box
HOW TO DOWNLOAD THE UPDATE
