My iPhone wont charge, its home button doesn't work, and i haven't backed it up recently. Is there any way to restore its data, like messages or contacts?
iPhone 6, iOS 12
Then you haven't activated iCloud messages and don't keep contacts in the cloud. You can take your old iPhone to a reputable 3rd party repair shop that can do board level soldering and see if they can fix your phone long enough to do a backup of it and then restore from that.
No.
Are you using iCloud Messages and have your contacts in the cloud?
Yes I do, I just hadn't backed it up to icloud before my phone broke.
so I was wondering if there was a way back up my phone without my phone actually being on.
If you turned on iCloud messages and you have your Contacts in the cloud you should be able to load them when you get a new iPhone.
ok thank you
my iPhone wont turn on and I haven't backed it up in a while. Is there a way to restore data from said phone?
