What is the best solution for recover data from dead iPhone and no backup?

Hi,

My iPhone won't turn on n charge. I search on google and read more than 200 article and try all the way but didn't turn on iPhone. I can connect to the iPhone in DFU mode and iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Popup the message You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.

If I click on this, it warns me that factory settings will be restored and that data will be lost. I don't want to lose my data. I didn't have backup.

I go to apple showroom the guy told me have hardware problem.

If i restore the iPhone in recovery mode not sure can be restored successfully without any problems and iPhone turn on but the apple guy told me is hardware problem if hardware problem then how to restore iPhone in recover mode?

I take the iPhone to other shops after they checking the iPhone all they say can't repair. some say CPU or motherboard or logic board problem.

Let's start discussion.

Option

1. I saw on video some expert people can take out very easy memory chip from iPhone.

Question :

A. After take out the memory chip from my iPhone can possible backup to my computer?

B. Can backup to my account iCloud Drive?

C. They can restore my data to new iPhone?

D. Is possible without take it out memory chip from logic board can backup to my computer or iCloud Drive ?

2. Buy second hand iPhone then ask them take it out my iPhone memory chip and put in second hand phone.

Question: After they change the memory chip then second phone show all the apps and my data? If iPhone work this way then also can backup on iCloud Drive?

3. If have Logic Board problem then i change the logic board then my data memory chip put on my logic board.

Questions:

A. Where i can buy Logic Board iPhone 6 plus 64 Gb ?

B. iPhone show all the apps and my data ?

C. Can backup to my iCloud Drive ?

Someone saying: he pointed out that it's a small ic chip on the logic board are common to blow on these and will stop ur iPhone from powering on or even charging he did the repair today and walla it's back working I honestly thought the phone had it but 100% this is the issue its caused by overcharging.

Questions: Which ic chip on the logic board?

I download many account apps where i save the data because that apps didn’t have backup service. I have get back data.

If any other option available please share here to help other.

I already spend 15 days on searching and read article and wasting my time. Hope soon can find the way to recover the data.

Thanks very much

iPhone 6 Plus

Sorry, but that won't work (if it was that simply, why bother encrypting data at all?). The encryption is tied to the original hardware, so putting it in any other hardware will not allow you to read it or decrypt it. The iPhone and iOS are specifically designed to ensure that is not possible.


The reality is there is no way to get the data off your dead iPhone. If you did not make a backup beforehand, that data is lost now.

If you have an iPhone with a fingerprint reader in the home button, and you enabled a screen lock passcode on the device, then you are simply out of luck. The data on your device is encrypted, so any data recovery service will only recover meaningless gibberish as you have no way of decrypting that data if read from the storage memory.


Without a backup, you have no means of recovering that data now.

Unless your iPhone already had a hardware issue, it cannot overcharge. As with all industry standard SMART Lithium battery devices, an iPhone has built in over-charge protection. The charging circuit simply shuts off once the battery has reached capacity. The only way an iPhone, or any Apple battery powered device will over charge is due to already damaged hardware.

It won't take much internet searching to realize that this software, and all like it, is utterly and completely useless if your iPhone had a screen lock passcode set. As mentioned, in that state your data is encrypted and cannot be decrypted without the original hardware working properly. All mobiledic or any commercial recovery software will extract is utter senseless strings of one's and zero's.


Similarly, an iCloud backup is also encrypted and the data can only be decrypted by restoring to a device using the same iCloud password and login.
