I've managed to update my iPad3 successfully but cannot update my iPhone5

I've tried

iPhone5,2_7.0_11A4372q_Restore
iPhone5,1_7.0_11A465_Restore

Both to no success :confused: the phone model is A1429 if that helps or is it being blocked by Apple on update?

What error message do you get?. It might be a corrupt download.

It should work. All UK iPhones are same regardless of network.

Starts of iTunes will update to ios7 and verify with apple - then after attempting to verify says this device isn't eligible for the requested build? All other versions i've tried have been rejected straight away (without starting the process)
 
The build number you want is 11A465. I've installed them on my Three phone without problems. If using mac to press ALT when clicking restore. Find build 11A465 and it should go through without problem.
Also make sure your host file hasn't been edited and is pointing to the genuine Apple Server.
