3GS Model MC555LL - how to upgrade iOS to version 6

Hello Guys,
I have a 3GS that came from the U.S. already unlocked, MC555LL model and version 4.1 (8B117).
When it arrived, I put the chip carrier and it worked perfectly. Shortly thereafter, updated the iOS but then did not work anymore. After reading (and do) a lot without understanding much, took me to a shop and did the restore to the same version as it came. The date, the technician told me not to upgrade but would fail again.
It turns out that has many applications that do not work in version 4.1 and decided to try again to upgrade. But first, I would like some help from you guys who have experience.
Or can not raise the iOS version for this device?
Thank you all!

Thanks for the reply.
I tried to update the first time because I knew that the phone was not changed ... I bought it on Amazon and it was information that was factory unlocked.
Can you tell me if still it has changed?
Thank you!

  • How to "upgrade" iOS 4.2 ?

    Hi All,
    Let me give brief description about my problem -
    My iPod Touch details
    Type                          - Apple iPod Touch
    Generation                - 2nd generation
    Current iOS Version  - 2.2.1(5H11)
    Model                       - MA627LL
    Year of Purchase      - 2008-09
    Problem / Issue
    Initially when i brought this ipod touch , i was happily enjoying the fun from "itune-store" like downloading various apps/games/music so on...
    But now i'm NOT able to download anything from itune-store to my ipod, and it throws an error while sync'ing like my iPod touch was NOT compatible with current iOS version.
    So i think need you upgrade iOS newer version.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1061 --> In this blog , it's clearly states that i'm eligible for iOS 4.2 upgrade
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052?viewlocale=en_US --> In this blog , it states that who own 1st generation have to purchase iOS 3.1 , BUT people                                                                                             who own 2nd generation can get/upgrade to iOS 4.2 for FREE.
    Now the question is -
    1) How to get/upgrade to iOS 4.2 ?
    2) Any steps?
    3) Do i need to purchase , or can i get it for FREE as it says in the APPLE site ?
    Ways that i tried already -
    I tried like connecting to itune-store , and by clicking on "check updates" - it shows as my iPod tocuh was update-to-date.
    So how do i upgrade to new version now?
    Any help please?
    Let me know if need any information regarding my iPod tocuh..
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to upgrade ios 5 in ipad 2

    How to upgrade ios 5 in ipad 2?

    Not sure whether you want to upgrade to iOS 5 or you have iOS 5 and want to upgrade from it, but you can only update to the highest iOS 6 version that a device supports, which for an iPad 2 is 6.1.3. If you already have iOS 5+ then you should have a Settings > General > Software Update option on it for direct update update on it, otherwise you can only update via your computer's iTunes.
    To update via your computer, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

  • How to upgrade eSourcing from version 5.1.8 Patch 3 to 5.1.8 Patch 4

    Please some one can guide me How to upgrade eSourcing from version 5.1.8 Patch 3 to 5.1.8 Patch 4 since i am new in CLM.

    Hello Gadewar,
    First of all make sure you read all the details given in the Upgrade Guide located at "Installation and Upgrade Guide"->SAP SRM->SAP E-Sourcing 5.1/SAP CLM 2.0->E-Sourcing 5.1/CLM 2.0 Component Upgrade Guide PDF at service.sap.com/support website.
    Note you need to have the support account to login to that website.
    How ever I am listing down basic steps required for upgrade below.
    1) Download the installables from the website I did mention above, have DB jar, have custom jar (optional).
    2) Take backup of the DB.
    3) Take backup of Config folder. Also take backup of the <home Dir>/Lib if you have some customizations in the form of JARS.
    3) Make sure the userid which is used for connection to DB have the required permission like CONNECT, RESOURCE, UNLIMITED TABLESPACE etc. It is given in the guide I mentioned above in section 4.1 Verify Privileges of Oracle Service Account.
    4) Stop ESO instance and run the setup and then upgrade scripts.
    5) Undeploy the old ESO application from App server and then deploy new .EAR from new <home dir>/fsapp on the app server.
    6) Start the app server and your ESO will be ready. You may need to use Workbooks to upload Localized Resources. This is the case if you have modified some OOTB localized resources in the past as a part of customization and have not used the overrides to give new resource values. If you have used overrides for localized resources in the past then you are good and need not to load the workbook.
    Again usage of Workbook depends on the requirement to requirement. You may need to use workbook based upon your business needs.
    Make sure you have not modified any OOTB query definitions as a part of customizations, if that is the case you will loose those query definitions as upgrade scripts overrides OOTB queries and then you should backup those as well before upgrade and then you may re-pull them after upgrade.

  • How to upgrade iOS on iPhone when disk iTunes is installed on is virtually full

    I'm trying to upgrade iOS on my iPhone. The PC that I run iTunes on is old and as such the C: has only a 40GB capacity and us virtually full. I have a symlink set up which points the default iTunes backup folder at a secondary, larger internal hard drive and I can back up my iPhone without any issue and not rake up space on C: (thanks to the symlink). However, when I try to upgrade from iOS 4.3 to the latest, iTunes complains that I have no free space and the I should free up 5GB which I can't do! I've got 1TB of available space on my network but iTunes only looks at the local disk when upgradin, giving me a scary "you'll lose all you data" type message when I try to progress.   What are my options here? Uninstall iTunes and reinstall it somewhere with more space? Back up my iPhone, let iTunes wipe my data then restore from backup? Get Apple to fix iTunes? Sell everything and go and live in a commune with no electricity? Anyone got any idea?  Thx

    OK, I took your advice and tried to delete some of the 'crap', uninstalled a bunch of things, got Windows to 'Compress old files' and woohoo I now have 8.3GB free.
    Tried the upgrade again and there's no diskspace warning, however, iTunes throws a 1303 error when trying to backup and gives a 'Continue and you'll lose everything' message.
    I can backup without a problem using the Backup Now button in iTunes, but when it tries to do it as part of the upgrade it fails.
    So I'm back to square 1 really after hours of harddrive 'optimisation'. Any idea how I celar the 1303?
    Thanks

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    An iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1.
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update.

    You use the same command to downgrade indeed. The CSS can hold up to 4 different images, so make sure that in the #show installed-software you have the two images you want to keep.
    Once you have upgraded, if you want to revert back to the previous version, do as follow:
    CSS# conf t
    CSS(config)# boot
    CSS(config-boot)# primary boot-file
    CSS(config-boot)# reboot
    If for some reason you experience an issue and cannot access the CLI, then use the OffDm as follow to recover:
