iOS 4.2.1 is the end of the road for the iPhone 3G. It cannot update any further.
Hope that helps clear things up

    Update iPhone 3G

    An iPhone 3G can't be updated past 4.2.1. If it's running an older iOS version, update it from iTunes on a computer, and if possible, the one it normally syncs with.

  • HT4972 Update iPhone 3G iOS 4.2.1 to later version

    I have just acquired an iPhone but none of the apps I am interested in will run on the installed iOS 4.2.1 installed.  The model number is A1241, 8GB.
    I read the Apple support article (HT4972 and HT4623), which says to use iTunes to update iOS 4 to iOS 5 or later, but the instructions on how to do this are so terse as to be useless. I have been thru' Settings/General, but there is no Software Update button in there, and I can't find any software update button in any other menu.  How does a normal mortal manage to update iOS!  It doesn't help that this forum pulldown below doesn't list the Version 4.2.1 (8C148) that is shown in the General/About/Version path...
    Thanks...

  • HT4972 Update iphone 4 to iOS6.1.6 from iOS6.1.3 ...

    How can I update my iphone 4 to iOS6.1.6 from iOS6.1.3 and not iOS7.0.6?  Currently in iTunes, I can only do software update to IOS7.0.4.

    Most likely your phone was hacked to unlock it from the carrier it was locked to. When you updated it the lock was restored.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    in terms of performance: do you recommend to update iPhone 3gs to os5 or os6?

    If you update your 3GS, iOS 6.0.1 will be installed on it...you don't have a choice, as that is the only iOS currently signed by Apple, that is available for your phone.

    What iOS are you currently running?
    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    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. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • HT4623 Updated iTunes to latest version, updated iPhone to iOS 7 and now my phone won't work at all.  Won't connect to my WiFi, and won't talk to iTunes . . . Now what do I do?

    I now have a useless $700 phone.  Updated iTunes to latest version (and can't get it to revert back to an earlier version), updated iPhone (iPhone5) to iOS 7 and now it won't talk to iTunes, nor will it connect to my WiFi.  What should I try now?

    If it won't talk at all to iTunes, you can hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds, it will power off, this is ok, then let go of the power button while holding the home button until iTunes sees it as a device in recovery mode.  You can try to reinstall iOS7 and then restore.
