Isn't that the latest official ROM from Verizon? If so, you need to re-lock your phone and then install the ROM and everything will be fine.

EDIT: It is. Just re-lock your phone and re-install. Honestly though you'd be better off installing a custom ROM; there are plenty of good ones here to choose from.

nah, PCD is the site VZW uses to post firmware updates, it's good.

just put your phone into bootloader mode (power off phone, then hold vol down and hold power button. dont let go of them until the bootloader screen comes up. then flash from the computer
