I discovered a couple things, first, Android messages did automatically backup my SMS history, I didn't need any third party apps. Android/Google really has this backup thing down. You reset the phone and it gets everything restored to exactly how it looked before the restore.

Let's say I am ready to try. Do I need to do anything to prepare?

Make sure all your photos are backed up in Google photos, and make sure your phone is set to backup to your Google account.

I think that's it

save any text attachments (aka pics) that you hvaen't just in case android doesn't back up the SMS that you want.

everything else is just a matter of re-installing apps and putting passwords back in.

android *used* to automatically reinstall all the apps you had before but honestly i'm glad it doesn't now. half that shite i wasn't using so why have it automatically dump a bunch of shite apps back onto your phone?

i always go to play store/my apps and browse through it and pick about 20 or so to download.

if there are a few i missed its just what..a 20 second download to get them back?
