Try just plugging your phone into iTunes and clicking check for updates.
 
Kindly state the following:
- iPhone model
- Operating System (MAC OS, Windows 7, Vista etc.)

Tried that as well, it goes upto 99% n then disconnect from server....!!
 
I even tried "erase all contents and settings" as it was mentioned in a forum it took all night n all my battery but the status bar never showed even 0.1% completion.....
 
Reinstall iTunes but this time you need to install atleast version 10.5. Then try to update your phone once more...
