Hi, Right now i'm in 10.2. I want to remove jailbreak and update it to 11.2 but main problem is I don't have a pc for iTunes backup and there is one more problem sometime back i deleted some language file from icleaner to free up some space now i think if I update through OTA I'll brick my phone. Now how can i remove jb and update to 11.2?
 
Pretty sure, you need to download the firmware, do a restore and do it through iTunes on a PC / Mac.

^^^This.

All an OTA is going to do is update the OS. It will probably work, but because JB files won't be removed that can cause problems.

What I do is backup, DFU upgrade/restore as new, then restore from my backup.

If getting a hold of a computer with iTunes is really not possible, visit an Apple store. All those iMacs around the genius section have iTunes and you can do what you need there.

What if i remove jb using Stashing & OSRestoreX and after that i'll update it from OTA without doing "Erase all content & setting" ?
