I do think it is Safari that prevents the updates. I got some odd messages telling me that I didn't have the current operating service and as a result couldn't up-date.
Supposedly there is a class action case going about the Iphone4, since it forces people to replace the phone since it won't update. I didn't want to wait so went with the iPhone 6.
