I know apple doesn't let iPhone4 user have iOS8 but there any way to having it WITHOUT JAILBREAKING the phone??? I searched the web and youtube and barely found stuff that didn't work

Bassicly I just want it for the continuty feature and hand off and sms relay..so if theres a way of getting those without updating the phone, it would be great

(its for my mom's phone (I have a iP6))
Thanks in advance
 
And even if you can get it to run, the hardware wouldn’t support it. Per Apple:

Continuity features are available on iPhone 5 or later, iPad (4th generation), iPad Air, iPad mini, iPad mini with Retina display, and iPod touch (5th generation).

Simply put, you need a new iPhone. The 4 won’t cut it. It’s two revs out of date.
