Updating an iPhone:

Try updating through using a computer or through Cellular, for your model. Be certain you have the services, if you decide to follow through with Cellular. Use my User Tips:

IMPORTANT: If you have an option to update, however, then be certain you backup your iPhone first. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong with the update
