In order to perform a backup procedure (via wifi to iCloud or via USB to a computer), you need to interact with your iPhone's screen.


If it is frozen, try a "forced" restart of your iPhone, using these instructions:--> Force restart iPhone – Apple Support

If it is broken, have it replaced at an Apple Store or AASP.
