How to wipe a broken iphone?
I broke the screen on my iphone 5s. I want to sell it to gazelle.com. But I want to make sure all of my information is wiped off of it first just to be safe. I can't go into settings and erase all the data that way since the screen is broken so is there another way? I know when the screen is on becasue the light stll comes out a little.
1. Use Find my iPhone service
2. Change the password of your Apple ID
Gazelle is def the best way. They pay you right when they get your laptop - it's fast and convenient - I never use ebay its such a hassle. When I use gazelle, I use this link to pay me $10 more than usual.

I've owned an iPhone 5s for over a year, it's currently running iOS 10.3.3 but I've just connected to iTunes for the first time however I only get 2 options, either "Set it up as new iPhone" or "Restore from an old backup", but that last backup is from 2015. So, if if I select "As New iPhone" will it wipe out my data?

- When apple replaces a broken iphone, do you get to keep the old broken one? The back camera on my iPhone 4s broke (just stopped working), so I called Apple and I have an appointment set up to replace the old phone with a brand new one. But, I want to know if when they give me the new phone, will they let me keep the old one? The phone still works fine except for the camera. In fact, it's almost perfect. And obviously I want to sell the old one on ebay to make a boat load.
