I read how Apple made a statement that the problems with the iOS 10 updates failing with the picture plug into iTunes, and.or 1617 error, was just in the first hour and has been corrected. Wrong!
My daughter has an iPhone 6, and she attempted the upgrade last night - she got both of these failures. Thanks to this site I Knew to:
1. Plug into iTunes - it didn't see the phone
2. Hard reset of phone - plug in - the restore/update started from iTunes but hung at 80%
3. Hard reset - install restarts, hangs at 80% again.
4. Hard reset - phone has already upgraded
Shame on you Apple! Nobody really knows the reason for this failure do they?
I just wanted to let everyone know to be careful if friends/relatives are still to upgrade - the beast is still lurking...
