Hello all. got a new iphone 17 running iOS 26.4.2, last month. Dropped it the first day, got the screen repaired by uBreakiFix and was working fine for a few weeks. Then it bricked, then it wouldn't charge, then it would get stuck in a boot loop, then the display wouldn't turn on but I could use Siri, and now it will not charge and the touch screen is completely unresponsive but the display is perfect. May be due to water damage after the initial repair. I only have 5 gb of icloud backup but I need 256 to back up my whole phone, I purchased more data after these problems started but the phone will not backup automatically. I cannot unlock the phone to backup anything nor will it backup automatically via icloud because it will not connect to wifi and is stuck in a "Before First Unlock" state. Took it to Apple and they tried to replace the screen but to no avail. Am I completely screwed and have to lose all my data? It has all my contacts, photos, notes, and texts since I was 18... Oddly enough, I can still make calls from it using my car bluetooth and can listen to music via AirPods, albeit only from shuffle.
