Updating with "No Service":

If you have no service, then try updating using a computer. As for "No Message" shown atop the screen, use the second link priced (B.).


A. Update Using a Computer:

Have a Computer Handy? If so, try using a computer to update. Go here: Update your iPhone Using a Computer - User Tip. If any updates are available, they will install, sure enough.


B. About "No Service": Is "No Service" shown on the top-left corner of your screen? If so, go here to fix this: If you See No Service or Searching on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
