tl;dr iPhone 11 no longer connects to cellular, wifi, or Bluetooth, and manual backup to iTunes froze without completing. Do I have any hope of migrating to my new iPhone 15 or is my data trapped on the brick?

I have had a standard iPhone 11 for quite a while, and was long due for an upgrade. Last week it suddenly stopped having cellular functionality; I could still use most features if connected to wifi but I knew the phone was at the end of its run. I was hoping to get a little bit of time out of it before replacing it to try to get a good deal but today both the wifi and Bluetooth cut out as well.

I went to Verizon and upgraded to an iPhone 15, and the rep that helped me said given my situation to wait until I got home to try to migrate it myself, as I'd have to factory reset it if it didn't work in store anyway. I set up the new phone and since my 11 has zero connectivity, I can't migrate over anything in the way that Apple now has it set to do via Bluetooth/wifi. I tried to plug in my 11 and back up manually to iTunes but the download froze before completing a few pixels shy of finishing and has been that way for hours.

At this point, I feel like all of my data is stuck on my brick of an 11 and I'll have to start fresh on my new phone, manually moving the most important stuff eventually. Does anyone have advice for other potential solutions, workarounds, anything that might help me move everything to my new phone? Thanks!

I miss the old bumper cases they had for the iPhone 4 and stumbled across the invisible case for the 15. Was hoping to hear some opinions it:

So I have a new Apple TV 4K which works beautifully on my Samsung Smart TV from 2018, however, when I open the Apple TV app of my TV service provider, the bottom bar with text such as below running from right to left very noticeably stutters.

When I run the same show in the same TV provider's app, but this time in the Samsung Smart TV app, it works smoothly.

Tried all settings I could think of to improve it, but nothing helped. Has anyone seen this problem as well?

Hi everyone, I just upgraded to the se from a 3 and realized I can’t swipe between two watch faces. Is this normal in the new update or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance!’

Best iPhone deal this weekend? Currently a Verizon customer but phones paid off and not mind leaving. I don’t mind 36 months pay off if they give me a good trade in either. Thanks! Happy holidays all.

iPhone has software features to manage Dual Sim, such as the contacts using a preferred phone number or messages showing which phone number is being used to converse.

My question is how is Dual Sim managed across devices? iOS, iPadOS, and macOS can all sync messages and phone calls. I don't want to respond to a message from my iPad or Mac and have it be sent from my primary number instead of my secondary number. Apple never really updated Dual Sim after releasing it. It feels janky that iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch don't show which phone number is being used to text.

My phone is a 13 with 512 GB. It is very full, 511.8 GB. I have 1.55 TB of photos on iCloud but another 2-3 hundred GB of photos on my phone. It says there's not enough storage to sync iCloud photos. Of course, there's not enough storage to download all of the photos on my iCloud. I need to upload, not download. I turned off iCloud photos syncing so they'd go through backup. However, iCloud backup isn't working saying there's not enough storage. I have 6 TB iCloud space so that's not the issue. It's like the phone is too full to do anything. How do I fix this without deleting stuff?

Just purchased a new iPhone 15 pro and one thing throwing me off is the how much dimmer the screen is for me on the 15 pro compared to my 13 pro. Same settings. Max brightness. True Tone is disabled too. Anyone else experiencing this or know what’s the cause?

I was checking the time on my phone with an oculus vr on and saw that my front cam was constantly flashing. Anyone know why??

i’ve had an iphone 12 pro max for about 3 years. for the last 5ish days it’s been telling me there’s water in the charging port (there’s not) and i’ve just been overriding the notification with no problems. tonight i put it on the charger and it started charging for half a second, but when i went to go check on it 20 mins later, it hadn’t charged a bit. its not an issue with the charger. i’ve tried two of them and they both work on other devices. i’ve restarted my phone 3 times, cleaned out the charging port, etc etc. google also said a software update might work but i can’t charge it to download the update. is there anything else i can try or should i just give up and go get a new phone? the back is shattered and i have an upgrade available anyway, so that is a viable option for me.

Hey fellow Redditors! 👋 What are your thoughts on Apple potentially bringing Touch ID back to their flagship iPhones? Some argue it's a convenient and reliable feature, while others believe Face ID has taken its place.

I’m behind the times and am interested in getting an Apple Watch but have no idea what to buy. Looking for opinions on what series is best all around.

Just got some air pods gen 2. upgrade from Bose imho.

I am new to iOS platform, I was a android user before. So recently I have downloaded one invoice from Amazon app. Now where it got stored I am not able to see it.

Got two SEs to track my kids while they play around the neighborhood and my spouse was setting them up but one failed to finish installing the default apps.

When bedtime rolled around we successfully setup a sleep schedule on one but it wasn’t completed downloading yet on the one that was having trouble installing its default apps. My spouse deleted it since it was stuck and went to reinstall from the on-watch App Store; unfortunately this method of downloading Sleep doesn’t work with family setup because it says iPhone required.

Do I need to reset the device to get the default Sleep app back (and for the other defaults to finish installing?)

Hello, I have an Apple TV 4K with the remote already paired. I was sitting next to my Apple TV with my phone open and “Pair your remote” started to pop up, I’ve confirmed that my remote still works. Any way to get this from constantly popping up? I’ve already reset it.

This is so cute, just want to share

I just switched from 12 mini to 15 plus. Although based on specs its lighter than previous plus models, but its still heavy (Just 1 day of usage) so i cant imagine those with pro max phone especially its the one model that has the highest sales.

How long does it take for you guys that changed to heavy phone and get used to it? Or u guys just switch back to regular size?

I'm not so if anyone got this issue, but my iP15 pro (e-sim) shows no caller ID. Everytime I receive calls is displays as 'unknown'. Show caller ID is on and my network is recognized in the settings.

If there's anyone with this issue can I get some help pls?
