IPhone 4 iOS 7 Download problems

When I check the software updates, it keeps loading with the message "Checking for updates", its been doing this for almost 2.5 hours.

A lot of people are having problems downloading iOS 7 most likely because the servers are really busy.

Try a hard reset on your phone (Hold home button + power button).
Try resetting your wireless network, too.

It should be available for the update. Are you updating through iTunes or wirelessly?
Try it wirelessly and go to Settings > General > Software Update.

Hope that helps.
