Couldn't Backup iPhone

I receive the below mentioned error message when I wanted to backup my iphone through icloud.


"iPhone Backup Failed

You do not have enough space in iCloud to backup this phone"


The backup info page is as below

Last Backup - Never

Backup Size - Zero KB

Next Backup Size - 435 MB


iCloud Storage - 45.7 MB of 5GB Used


I have tried after a restart, network reset and a complete reset. It didn't work.


I couldn't figure out the problem!...

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Finally Its RESOLVED!...


But not with any of the above discussed method. I just did a "Manual Full backup of my iPhone through itunes to my PC".

After doing this the icloud backup occured automatically.


I'm not sure whether its mandatory to make a manual backup before using icloud, but this resolved my problem...
