Are you saying your old device has an issue where it won’t stay on and is the reason you have a new phone? If so you likely will need to back it up while it is connected to a power source or use a computer to do it. If those options won’t work you will either need to setup the new phone with an old back up or set it up as a new device retrieving whatever data you have in iCloud if any.
