Stolen Device Protection: Can I restore old iPhone backup?
My Iphone 15 pro won't turn on due to water damage, it lasted 24 hrs.
Before water damage I had Stolen Device Protection turned on.
When water damage occured I tried backing phone up with Itunes but it kept asking me for Face ID, which wasn't working due to water damage.
Sim card kept going unrecognised so I am taking it that's why it didn't know I was at home and wasn't allowing passcode instead of Face ID.
So I couldn't back it up.
I have a backup of my phone from beginning of November on my windows PC, from using Itunes.
Question is... if I buy a new Iphone will I be able to use the backup from Nov or will there be something to do with stolen device protection preventing me using it?
iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 26
