i gave daughter old iphone 6 had ios 10.3.3. able restore previous iphone 5s (10.3.3) backup on different computer without having update/restore. nuked 6 (reset settings) , connected pc last (ios 10.3.3). surprisingly (and yes big surprise), restored of settings without forcing me update 6 first ios 11.
i've had new phone (7) month. wasn't able restore last iphone 6 backup because backup in 10.3.3 , new 7 has 10.3.2. no big deal since set "new" , able resync (except camera roll , old text) 6.
now, restore 7 finalize "unlock" granted carrier. unfortunately, can't restore without updating ios 11.1.2. tried dfu mode once connected itunes wants update , restore. i'm using different pc (the same 1 used last 2 years on 6 , last month on 7). don't have faced options of "update/restore" , "setup new" resetting settings on 7.
(restoring finish unlock) not "have" do. nice in case international travel , want install sim card while traveling abroad.
