    Hi all.
    I want to set up my iPhone 5 as a new phone. For years I have been backing up from the iphone but I want to set up as new to reclaim some of that "other" memory.

    If I set up as a new phone will I still be able to keep my photos and contacts??.

    If iCloud is enabled and so are contacts and photo stream then they will be synced back. Nearly sure you can upload both to drop of aswell

    Think this is possible alright.

    i would do the following :
    • Plug iPhone into iTunes.
    • Restore
    • Set up as new phone
    • Enter iCloud details.
