johnmadsen If you want to go from 2.0.3 (latest Stable) to 2.5.0 (Open Beta 1), it does not factory reset your phone. But you need to remember that Android 13 to Android 14, definitely will face some issues. The best result is, factory reset 2 times is the best result. As far I play it lah. (back to 2.0.3 also same, 2x factory reset)
Back to your concerns, a backup phone can be done manually, which is transferring all files/folders to your computer or can use Google Cloud (GDrive/GOne) by going to Settings > System > Backup. I tried the backup function in Android, but it did not give the best result as iOS backup/restore. 😢
