As the title says.
So I had to set up a new phone and what I did was I backed up the old phone (on iOS 7.1.1)
and I restored the new phone through that backup as a new phone and somehow it ran iOS 7.1.1 as well.
I didn't check the old iOS version of the new phone but it's highly unlikely for it to be running 7.1.1 as it was being used for quite some time by another person (secondhand phone).
Anyways, Did the full restore also included the iOS version ?
Did it overwrite or wipe the old iOS version and downgrade/upgraded it to 7.1.1?
Apparently, according to some sources it's possible to restore an iPhone using an iPad backup.
I have a backup of my jailbroken iPad (8.3)
and was wondering if it's possible for me to upgrade the iOS version of the iPhone to 8.3 through restoring as a new device with the iPad backup.
I know it sounds a bit far fetched and maybe both of the phones were coincidentally running on 7.1.1
(I've already jailbroken the phone in 7.1.1 to access some directory files to remove the restriction code)
I just want to "update" it to 8.3 to be able to download some certain apps.
Thank you sooo much ~
