I did mine via the phone and Cloud and it was on the first day. It took
about three hours or so and I thought it wasn't working, but honestly it
was. Suddenly (after falling asleep) I got up and found it was waiting for
me to put in my password.
It shouldn't have taken that long and, as my last upgrade went very quickly,
I'm assuming this time it was very slow because of overload or my ISP, for
some reason, giving slow connection.
Maybe it's fixed now and we'd all like to know what was going on.

I sure hope you get it working. Did you download and install from the phone
itself or from iTunes? I did mine from the phone. I know from previous
upgrades of the OS, it takes at least 10 minutes, but this time, it took
longer. Three hours is definitely too long. You might wish to shut off
your phone and re-initiate the update process. Hopefully, it will pick up
where you left off. Good luck. I think we should recommend to Apple's
accessibility team that audible tones be built into the update process so
that we know something is occurring. I'm going to write them now and
suggest this be added.

Les, thanks. It has now been 3 hours.
I have not gotten a single answer how to kick start an apparently dead
phone. I have been Googling and can't find anything yet.
It is amazing, since so many seem to have an answer for everything, or
several, many answers for the same thing. I guess the expertise is saying
something, not answering questions. :)
I appreciate the support.

Eric, it took mine about 15 minutes at least. I didn't time it exactly.

Well, in my case, several minutes has been 75.
If people could define "several minutes", "a little while", "just a
few", it might be more helpful for those of us who think we are stuck.
I am now two hours into things and nothing happens no matter what I
try. I know the phone is getting power because it is warm when
attached to the wall cord. Otherwise, nothing. Not with headphones,
nothing when attached to the PC, tried triple clicking home button, etc.
So, I guess I have waited just a little while.
If there are any suggestions, it will be most appreciated -- short of
take it to the Apple store...

It will. It takes several minutes for speech to come on. Just be
patient and it will come back.

I let the over-the-air update begin and it got to the 96% mark. I
let it stay there for about 30 minutes before I stopped the update.
When I started again, it was at 75% and counted up from there. It
reached 96% again and sat for quite some time, but I noticed it now
said
installation was in progress.
About 30 minutes since then, there has been nothing; no speech, no
sounds, cannot activate speech with the triple home click, cannot
turn the phone off or on; dead.
I began just after 1:00 PM Eastern. I think I am dead until someone
can eye it in a few hours.
Damn! Never had a problem updating before, although there have not
been so many opportunities. Any suggestions will be appreciated!
