Motherboard Problems

Hello,

I have iPhone 12 mini and the motherboard is having some issues. The phone won't turn on unless it's on the charger and even then it shuts down after approximately 1 minute. In setting it said that the battery was changed that it has an unoriginal battery in it. First I thought that the battery died so I had someone change it. It is the same and he told me that the motherboard is having issues.

The problem is I had the iCloud storage full so my data wasn't synchronised and now I can't synchronise my photos, because the phone dies after one minute of usage. Is there any way to get the data?

Any help will be much appreciated!

Best regards

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15

No. If it's not stable enough to stay on long enough to back it up, any data that wasn't previously backed up or synced to the cloud is effectively gone.

Depending on what's wrong, a 3rd party may be able to get it working long enough to back it up, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
