I have an old iPhone 6 that won't charge, reboot, restart, or turn on. Today, I just got an iPhone 15. I was wondering if anyone knew a decent program that can pull the data from my old phone so I can restore it to my "new" one. Thanks.pic related
>>1505436That's not something you can do without hardware access. If the phone doesn't boot then you have to either repair the phone or at least get access to the memory chip directly.No software can help there when the phone cannot even turn on, so you need to go to a repair center to recover the data. It's like trying to get a reply from a sleeping person. If it doesn't wake up first asking more questions won't provide any answers.
I did find one called Disk Drill that was able to read the hard drive via USB cable. It's expensive to upgrade to the "pro" version that actually recovers the data. I was just curious if anyone knew a better way. Thanks for the reply.
>>1505442Doesn't that mean it's not actually dead, just a non-functional screen?That makes things way easier I'm assuming. (Android user, not much Apple experience)Can't you just go to a phone store and ask them?Most of them have some pretty cool technology in the back rooms we don't get to see.Ya know, they crack open a phone, place the board on some fancy machine that bypasses the power supply and acts as the screen, including touch control, and hey look there's your data.
>>1505522I really don't know. I called the Apple Store, they said there's nothing they can do if it won't power on and you can't unlock it. It's a verification issue I believe.
>>1505552Yeah, >>1505439 said that too. What response do you expect when you tell someone it's entirely broken?
>>1505568I only told them what's going on with it. It won't turn on, charge, restart, reboot, screen stays completely black no matter what I do. It won't receive calls or texts, emails, nothing. So yeah, pretty much "entirely broken"...
>>1505574So call them, tell them exactly that again, and then say you can connect it to a PC and it sees stuff
>>1505575It's only through that third party program that I can see the files. iTunes doesn't recognize the phone at all and nothing happens when I plug it into my PC. The guy at the Apple Store told me they have no way to access the data unless I can turn it on and unlock the phone.
>>1505576>>1505436give it back jamal
>>1505576Oh, if the Apple experts told you that you may as well smash your phone to pieces and pick out the bits of gold platinum and silver
>>1505596Bruh, that's why I asked on here, so that maybe someone with a brain would be more helpful. Sorry I was mistaken.
>>1505601>be more helpfulYou're arguing against solutions. I don't see any reason to help
>>1505609I'm not arguing against solutions. I'm providing more info as suggestions come in. Most of what has been said, I've already tried and ruled out as possible fixes. Sorry if it seems dismissal or unappreciative.
>>1505576>The guy at the Apple Store told me they have no way to access the data unless I can turn it on and unlock the phone.couldn't you just access your shit yourself then?
>>1505622Yeah, I was trying to see if there was a better way to do that than using this Disk Drill and paying $80 for a one time use.
>>1505636There are better/cheaper data recovery apps than Drill Disk, not that I can name them off the top of my head But, full stop. If you can connect your USB cable, and that program can detect something, it means your phone works. What's broken on it? Probably the screen, maybe the battery is trash too. Plug it in and charge it for 6 hours, then connect it to your computer and try to turn it on and do random gestures that resemble unlocking
>>1505636Oh also, if you can get that program to read your phone without unlocking it, all the data you'll pull off it will be encrypted
>>1505637Thanks, I'll try that. >>1505638Well shit, I didn't even think about that being a possibility. Thanks.
>>1505642Why would that not be possible?Question is just if it will be useful.Everything is encrypted, but you can pull the encrypted files/containers.But even if you know your unlocking codes you don't have the key, they are not equal, the master key got created when first adding yourself as user and go connected to your unlock credentials, but it is unknown to you.
>>1505650I guess I just thought that if the program could read the files, it would be able to extract them in some sort of useful condition.
