IPhone 5 update iOS 7.1.1 without iTunes

Hi guys,
Hoping for a bit of advice.
I've just tried updating my iphone 5 from iOS 7.1 to iOS 7.1.1 - the update was verifying on my phone, then went black. Now all that comes up is for me to plug it into iTunes. Normally this wouldnt be a problem, but im inbetween moving houses with no access to my mac with iTunes.
i have plugged it into my housemates mac just to try getting it to work - I don't care so much about all the bits on it, I just need a working phone!
It keeps saying it's in restore mode on the mac. As his computer wont have a restore for my phone, it would be better for me to set it up as a new phone when the download is complete and then either restore it when I have my own mac, or see if I can back up from iCloud (whenever it last saved)?
Am I right thinking this is the best way to do it without my own iTunes/saved restore?
Thanks

Yes, restore it as a new device, then try to restore from your iCloud backup. Best of luck.

You can't. The ability to do that wasn't put in until iOS 5.

After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.

Hello. My Iphone start update iOS automatically. I want to have iOS ver. 6.1.3. How I can abort iOS 7.0.2 updating?

Hello. My Iphone start update iOS automatically. I want to have iOS ver. 6.1.3. How I can abort iOS 7.0.2 updating?

I had this issue and following the steps below fixed it:
1- backup your iphone on itunes
2- perform factory reset (it will wipe out the iOS7 from your iphone, if already downloaded)
3- restore iphone data using itunes (this won't restore the iOS 7 download data that was downloaded to the device)
4- disable wifi right after restored (to prevent auto download again of iOS7)
5- fill up your iphone with photos or music, leave less than 3GB free.
By filling up storage you can prevent Apple from auto downloading iOS 7 to your device. The iOS 7 download requires 3.1GB of data and if there is less than that it won't allow the download to happen.
The instructions above won't remove ios7 if the upgrade has been installed and currently running on your device. It removes the ios7 upgrade data that has downloaded to your device (and taking up storage space) that is waiting for you to press the "Install Now" button. Don't press that button...

HT4623 I can't turn on my new iphone after updating ios as recommended.

I can't turn on my new iphone after updating ios as recommended. I can't access apple support and chat b/c I can't access my serial number as I can't get on my phone. I can't call them for the same **** reason. Holding down the on button(s) as per google does not work. Itunes says my phone is in "recovery" and needs to be "restored". I don't know what this means. Very frustrated. Please help. I need my stupid phone. On the verge of beginning to hate apple...

It's hard to tell what went wrong. Some possibilities:
1. Your iPhone did not have enough free space. Once it works, check Settings > General > Usage
2. There was an issue with your internet connection so the update did not download properly.
3. One of the many update steps got interrupted somehow

Sync problem iphone 4 with ios 4.3.4 and itunes 10.4 on snow leopard

After updating my iphone 4 to ios 4.3.4 and itunes to 10.4 syncing doesn't work any longer.
While syncing pictures I get a unknown error (-50) message and syncing stops.

Okay, I have a Mac Mini running Snow Leopard in which I just updated iTunes. My iTunes library is on an external hard drive. I updated my iPhone to 4.3.4 and the syncing is not working. I get an error that it cannot write to the iPhone then get an error regarding some of the photos. Here is what I have done -
I restored my iPhone
I removed all photos from the iPhone and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes
I unplugged the external from my mini and then it did a sync just find - course I wasn't syncing anything to it!
I plugged back in the external via Firewire which is what it was before and I get the errors.
Prior to the latest iTunes update everything was fine but of course I hadn't updated the iPhone yet - so I don't know which update is now causing the problem although I'm thinking it's the iTunes update..
Any thoughts? Beyond frustrated at this point.

Thx, but in the link you have posted about Supported Bluetooth profiles:

Phone Book Access Profile allows the exchange of Phone Book Objects between iPhone and other Bluetooth devices. <<<
Now I feel so unsure.

IPhone 6 update iOS 8.0.2

I tried to update my iphone 6 from iOS 8.0 to 8.0.2 today, and after 10 hours, it stills locked.
I can't do anything and the progress bar it's gone! I can see only the black apple now.
What should I do?

You can disconnect and re-connect and try again. You should be selecting the Update button for the new Software. The update while connected to iTunes should not take all that long from the download, through the Verification and then the Install. If that down't work, you may have to Restore your iPhone to Factory Settings, insuring first you do have a current Backup available to Restore from Backup at a later time after the Restore as New.
Sometimes you can Update your iOS software in a WiFi environment even faster, if you have enough memory available for the process to work.

IPhone 3GS Update to 6.1.3 Crashes iTunes

About a month ago my mum lost her iPhone at work and later that day rung up O2 (her phone service provider) and got her sim cancelled or something along those lines. The next day she went to EE and got a contract and a new phone with them. When my mum returned to work she found her iPhone though and then gave it to me. I havent really touched it for the past month but now today i decided to start using it.
To start with, i tried connecting to the app store and recieved this error 'Cannot conect to the store. A secure connection could not be established. Please check your Date & Time settings'. So i checked the date and time settings both on the device and on my laptop (what i have iTunes on) and they were all fine but still this message persisted. I then thought that putting in my old 'non cancelled' sim card from GiffGaff might fix the problem; but no.
Next i turned to updating the iPhone. So i launch iTunes which i update to the newest version first and then attempt an update on the iPhone to 6.1.3. The update begins trying to backup the iPhone, which gets stuck right at the end of the bar for a few minutes before crashing iTunes. After a few more attempts of this, i try bypassing the backup stage by ending the 'AppleMobileBackup.exe' process through Windows Task Manager which worked and led me onto the iPhone restore stage. On this stage my iTunes loading bar displays 'Verifying iPhone Restore With Apple' and then after only a few seconds iTunes crashes once again.
Any help on fixing this error would be well appreciated,
Will.
