I currently have a jailbroken iPhone 5 and am about to get an iPhone 6 now that the jailbreak is out. Most advice I have read is that it is better and safer to start from scratch (reinstall all my apps and tweaks, reapply all my settings manually, etc.) than restore my data (know this is controversial, some have said they have done a restore and had no issues, but I would rather start fresh with a clean phone...will also force me to clean out lots of apps I never use).
However, the 2 things I want to make sure get brought over are my SMS messages and my photos and videos in my camera roll (I do not use iCloud or photostream, I back everything up to a local computer backup via iTunes). Is there a way to ONLY transfer those over...obviously I can get them over with a full restore but that brings everything else along with it. It seems like there are some 3rd party apps that do this, but not sure how well they work.
Has anybody used one recently that works well (some I have seen seem potentially outdated so not sure they work with current iOS versions), or are there other ways to do this without a 3rd party app?
Thanks very much.
