Hey, bro.
Anyone who goes through the home screen and gets a black screen, just stay put.
If there's an update to the internal files only, it's going to be done right where you left the home screen.
In my case, I left the dark screen for about 20 minutes and got a popup confirming the update, so it seems to take a while without exception.
If you can't get past the home screen, try installing the 1.0.30 version over the existing app.
Either way, all I can say is be patient once you get past the home screen.
