Greetings iPhonexsplus,


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! I understand you're seeing an alert that your iPhone was unable to activate, and that an update is required.


I suggest to take your iPhone to an Apple Authorized Service Provider or make a Genius Bar reservation at an Apple Store, as described in the following support article: If you see a Cellular Update Failed or Apple Pay Not Available alert after iOS update or restart


You can see additional steps for preparing your iPhone for service form the following guide: Get your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch ready for service


Kind regards.
