as a last resort to fix my battery life issue i would like to reset the phone. how can i accomplish this without loosing my apps, data, etc? thanks

i know there's info everywhere but i am confused on how to do it the proper way
 
  1. Backup to iTunes or iCloud.
  2. Click "Restore" in iTunes or "Erase All Content and Settings" in Settings > General > Reset on your iPhone.
  3. Restore your content from backup.

This probably won't affect your battery life in any way.
