Assuming your daily iCloud Backup is working you should reset it in Recovery Mode and try to set it up without accessing the backup.

If it still does it, it is broken. Have it looked at after erasing all data and setting

If it does not do it, erase the phone again and set up using the backup. If it does it again then it is your own software.


ensure you learn how to perform this.


If you can't update or restore your iPhone or iPod touch – Apple Support (recovery mode)
