4. Do you have a paid or free iCloud account?

There isn't enough space on a free account to back up a full iPhone.. I thought Apple made an exception for Photos, but maybe not. Maybe upgrade to a 1TB account?

Make sure the iPhone is logged into iCloud. Shut it down completely. Restart it. (if you haven't already tried).

Also, you can restore a new iPhone by holding it nearby an old iPhone... Both must be on the same wi-fi network. This option is presented during the set-up process.
