How to factory reset and keep photos and contacts
Well, as the title asks, and let me add this: NO, NOT with the "backup" feature. That destroys the whole purpose of the factory reset.
I have some weird bugs i want to get rid off. Such as Alarm not going off (yes i was late a couple of time because of that), getting a Facebook message, an iMessage, or any other notification and despite the fact i got it like 2 hours ago, it might say that it happened like 2 minutes ago (that happened through my latest "backup-update-restorebackup".
The Alarm bug is hunting me since i started taking backups with my iPhone 4s all the way to iPhone 6 Plus.
And just to throw in some more info since am not an amateur: No, i do not use OTA updates, i have tried wiping the whole phone and restoring the latest (or not latest) backup but i cant get rid of all the bugs. Some new might pop out, while others will extinct, but that annoying Alarm bug wont go away.
So to sum up, i want to start fresh but keeping photos and contacts is essential. I want to be able to use my iPhone at its best.
Thanks in advance.
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9
