iOS 8.4 - Restore from 8.1 possible?
So I decided to upgrade to the new iOS 8.4 just released and make a backup of my 5s that was on 8.1.2
Having updated the OS successfully, trying to restore from my backup fails every time with error message about backup being incompatible or corrupt. I'm pretty sure it's not corrupt.
I've searched around the internet and couldn't find anything about this except modifying 'info.plist' to trick iTunes into thinking it is compatible. However, 24 hrs into the restore progress and it hasn't even reached half way.
Why is iTunes so stupid as to not support their own backup files made from a prior OS version? It's not a huge leap in OS version like going from 6.x or 7.x
Can anyone help?
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4
