iOS upgrade to 15.2.1 SE (1gen).

I’m trying to upgrade my iOS system from 13.3.1 to 15.2.1 on IPhone SE (1st generation).


The phone downloads the update successfully, but when I press update now the system goes to Verifying Update and ends up with “Unable to instal update - An error occurred installing iOS 15.2.1” and options “Retry” and “Remind me later”.


iPhone 5s, iOS 10
