I've not encountered any issues with updating iOS 9.3.4, as have a large number of others. You need to troubleshoot your device. User troubleshooting includes restart, reset, restore from backup, restore to factory; testing after each step.

Aug 12, 2016 9:48 AMby ChrisPolk,I have rebooted the phone and this did not resolve the issue. Will not be in a position to restore from back up until end of business day. Plus back up was done AFTER update was complete. Would this impact the quality of the reboot any?
I can make a call and have asked someone to send me a test text message to see if this function works.
PS: When asked to check for update I get a "unable to check for update" message.

Aug 12, 2016 9:56 AMby ChrisJ4203,If you did this update OTA, on the phone itself, it is possible something went wrong. It may be in your best interest to do the restore from backup with iTunes later today. You should have made a backup before updating, and one is always made when updating from iTunes. I'm not sure about iCloud backups, since I don't use them, nor do I update via the device. Since the reset didn't work, and you don't seem to be connecting to the internet, you can try resetting the network settings to see if that clears things. Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. That will also delete any wi-fi passwords, and you will have to add them back again after joining wi-fi networks.
