Q: New iPhone 6—iCloud Backup Won't Restore
iPhone 6/64gb iOS 9.3.2.
I just got a new iPhone 6 (previous iPhone 6 stopped working). My last backup was August 9, 2016 and I'm about 99% sure my old phone was using iOS 9.3.3 at the time of the backup. They replaced the screen and my phone stopped working, so they ordered a new one which is using iOS 9.3.2. I tried restoring my iCloud backup, but I just get an error saying it won't restore (no details). I suspect it's because the software on my new phone isn't the newest rollout, 9.3.4. If I upgrade the software on this new phone to 9.3.4, will my backup (9.3.3) mosty likely restore? I guess it boils down to this: can a phone with older software restore from the iCloud a backup that was performed with newer software?
