I have heard of people reporting that starting from a fresh flash seemed to improve their experience, especially if the devices are from the first flash sales. So if you want to spend the time to set up things again, I guess it's worth a try but I will not promise anything. In any case, if you do it, I'd like to hear the outcome.
What you want to backup: * contacts: copy the folder /home/phablet/.local/share/evlution/addressbook/ * SMS/call history: you'll find that in /home/phablet/history-service/history.sqlite * You want to check your other apps. e.g. if you are using Authenticator for two-factor-authentication you will want to copy it's configuration too in order to not lock yourself out from your accounts. App's configs are in /home/phablet/.config/<appid> or /home/phablet/.local/share/<appid>. After reflashing, copy those files/folders to the same location again (overwriting the empty default ones) and reboot the phone.
