Setting up new phone help

[kidwithhelmet]

My iPhone is running sluggish since I have downloaded 3.0 (home button working intermittently, text and keyboard taking a bit too long to load). I have tried restoring back to 3.0 from my backup and it hasn't helped. I read somewhere here that restoring back to 3.0 and setting up as a new iPhone should help.

How do I make sure pictures and contacts still get saved by doing this?

assuming you have a 3G?

You could save your pictures to your computer and sync
you contacts to your computer or with gmail.

Such a simple solution.

Thanks.

No problem if you don't mind tip the scale in right corner.

OK I got a follow up question for you. I did this, restored from NO backup, and I'm still having the same issues with my home button and with text messages loading up slow. Do you have any ideas for me now?

3.0 is buggy my text messages open up slow also 3.1 should fix it.

Well that's a relief knowing others are noticing the same thing and it should be addressed soon. Do you have the same home button issues, or atleast heard of the issues on the forums?

I don't understand what is happening with your home button.

Sorry. Every once and a while, it's un-responsive on the first push, and actually seems to be worse now that I restored from no backup. So exiting out of menus and or trying to access the favorites is difficult.

It feels like a load time error, kind of like texts taking too long to open.

Sorry for 2 day late reply did not see this. If you take it to a apple store and something is wrong with home button they will replace you iPhone.
