IPhone 4S can't update iOS 8. Keep saying "iOS 7.1.2 is up to date"

Why I can't updates my iPhone 4S to iOS 8. Not to even talk about iOS 8.0.2 that just comes out today. I've more than 6G space left on the phone. Everytime I try to update, it's prompt "iOS 7.1.2 is up to date". What to do?

Yep latest edition of iTunes and serial number of phone is 5K*****A4S model MC603B\A .... I looked at serial number and presumed the 4s at end suggested that it was a 4s??

    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.

  • I got Iphone 3 gs and updated ios 5.01 when charging my phone it keeps switching itself on and off

    I got Iphone 3 gs and updated ios 5.01 when charging my phone it keeps switching itself on and off.

    Same problem.  Phone was unusable.  I managed to turn airplane mode on during one of the phone's "on" moments.  It went off once more but then came back on and stayed on long enough to back up and restore via iTunes.  As I don't rely on the phone to retain photos, contacts or mail etc I chose to do a complete restore and treat it as a new phone.  I did this just to make it as clean a restore as possible but you may be able to restore from your backup and get the same fix? All is good still some 24 hours later.  Hope this helps.
