Other 2022 iPhone 14/Plus/Pro/Pro Max/ US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread

Yep, so if you updated your current phone to iOS 16 your backup won't work on the new phone out of the box, since the 14's have a down-rev version of iOS 16. You'd have to setup the 14 without a backup, restore, then load your backup. But if your current phone is on 15.x or earlier, you won't have this issue.

I would recommend everyone to connect their new device to iTunes or Finder to restore the new device which will install the latest firmware or just quickly setup the device as new, do not sign into iCloud, OTA update the device then erase all content and settings. After all that, then set up the device as you would

Completely wrong. The 14 will update to the current build of 16 that we are on now and you will be good.

Maybe you misunderstood. If your current phone was updated to iOS 16 this week, that is actually a newer version of iOS than what the 14's are coming with (read the article). You can't install a backup from a newer iOS onto an older version.

I was living in NY and in high school you had to have either the sidekick, iPhone 3G, or my personal favorite the chirp phone

Interesting. I wonder if it's better to set everything up and then update, or update first and the setup?

At moment I backed up my 13 ProMax with 15.6 on to my Mac and was just going to update this archived backup to my 14 ProMax with the 16.x version it has. I am playing now with the 16.0 on my 13 ProMax but was not planning to back it up as its only 5 days old not much new since on phone other than testing 16.0. I guess I shall see what works I usually just update from my backup and try to make sure it is older version than new phone. I suppose if the update is easy might do it first then restore from backup of 13 with 15.6. Shall see what works and looks best I guess. Hopefully process is simple.

So, what flight am I on?

It'd be cool to see how different the photos are now with the 48mp camera

No 4K video with 128GB pro.

It's supposed to be delivered this Friday though. In past years I've always gotten a "your order has shipped" even when it was leaving China - and I can track it going through customs, etc.

I'm not having it delivered to a store - just my work address (or home).

According to My UPS, my phone just left Incheon, Korea and my Apple tracking (or lack of) still says preparing to ship.

That's the million dollar question right now. UPS seems to not have updated with a Departure Scan, but we're pretty sure it's UPS 183.

 

[bevsb2]

No scan yet. I'm giving up for the night. Hope to see it in the morning.

My plan I backed up 15.x before installing 16 on my 13 ProMax to play for couple days

Left Korea? Are you sure? Or just Arrived

 

[Gathomblipoob]

No, you can have him. Thanks!, LOL!

Alright already; I'll delete the post. Just trying to do something a little creative for the group.

You're all good then. Only those with no discipline will have this issue 🤣

Did you call them?

Yes, 128GB can only do 1080p ProRes.

Just sitting here in my hotel room, sipping on a captain and coke, browsing this thread and refreshing UPS, lol

The 14 has a day one update to bring it to the current version that we installed yesterday. I read it just fine!

I would love a product red pro color

Yes! To go with my product red Apple Watch

Sorry my mistake. It has arrived. No scan for leaving yet.

Were we on UPS 175 when going from ZhengZhou to Incheon?

Correct. It has happened to me several times as I am on betas. I have to update new phone to latest and then only I can restore it from backup. Unless Apple has improved something this year for restoring.

No. Just going by tracking.
