software update

my phone can't receive any calls or messaging. The Wi-Fi is turn off and isn't allowing me to switch it back on. The cellular says an error on it. I was told to connect to iTunes because it's a software update error. I'm connected but it's still saying error.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

Check your iPhone settings

Go to Settings and turn on Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn it off. Check Do Not Disturb. Go to Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb and make sure it's turned off. Check for any blocked phone numbers.
