Impossible to tell with a used phone. Did you start on the Hello screen?

You need to be on Wi-Fi, Good SIM with service showing, On Charge, more than 50% charged and no VPN installed (If this starts from Hello screen that should not be a problem)

None of these were problems and it did start with the hello screen. It got past the iOS 15 update after about an hour of it saying “preparing update” but it couldn’t get past the iOS 15.8
