Factory Reset - How To Tips

[riggs20009]

I need to do a factory reset for my HTC Evo - what is the most efficient way to save all my data to restore my phone post-reset?

I'm thinking about:

- Applications
- Photos
- Contacts? (Gmail may just handle this automatically? Is there anything resident to the device that I should consider?)
- Application data
- SD card data
- Bookmarks
- did I miss anything?

Any advice / tips / references of things to read would be appreciated.

Thanks

Apps are in the market(paid ones can be redownloaded free as long as you sign in with the same gmail account)
contacts you can just sync with gmail
photos/anything sd related shouldnt be erased, but if youre that worried just unmount it before the wipe
