This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
After downloading and starting update to 1.1.2.15 to phone is now stuck with a black screen and the LED is white. A short press on the power key makes the led stop, but still shows black screen, though I can see that it turns on the screen.
- The phone was and is connected to charger.
- It was charged to 85%.
- it showed 3.5GB free space before downloading. (Edit: it was actually 3.5GB used)
- It was on latest normal version (don't recall the exact number).
- It was connected via Wifi.
- I didn't notice any Sailfish logo after starting the update. Don't know if it showed up later, as I was making coffee ;)
- I have a few openrepos enabled for e.g. Tweetian and Meecast.
Before trying anything I'd prefer to ask the community and sailors. Should I first try to reboot the device?
Update: I took the chance and rebooted the device. It booted up fine, but was still at the old version. I made a new attempt of installing the update, this time without it being connected to the charger.
The update went fine this time, but such problems installing still shouldn't happen.

Glad you got sorted Tanghus, I'm not sure I've ever experienced a straight forward update. One of the last few times, it took 3 attempts to make the update take (actually see the Sailfish logo and the white bar complete/finish).
