iOS 9.3.5 update failed verification

I'm consistently getting this error on my iPhone 6s. I have tried everything below on multiple networks:

The same exact same thing happened last time I updated the iPhone. The update was pulled and the new updated worked right away. Really frustrating especially when the error message is inaccurate.

I tried deleting the downloaded update many times under Settings > General > Storage & iCloud Usage > Manage Storage (the first one) > ... and it does not help.


Per suggestion, I tried to update using iTunes and it also failed. I did get some additional details but I don't understand what it means. iTunes displays the message "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be updated. This device isn't eligible for the requested build." Then I click the "More Info" button i get pointed to this website:


If you see Error 3194, Error 17, or 'This device isn't eligible for the requested build' in iTunes - Apple Support
