IPhone 5 on 7.1.2 - How to restore to 7.1.2 again?

Hi All,
My iPhone 5 16 Gig Unlocked is on 7.1.2 currently.
Numerous apps and settings etc have made it slow and the battery life is pretty bad too. I want to restore it but don't want to upgrade it to iOS 8.
How can I restore it to 7.1.2?
Your advices and suggestions are re

If you reset your phone from the phone itself rather than using iTunes your phone will stay at the same version.

How to restore my contacts

Sorry no backup - no pictures.
Yes phone will automatically backup to icloud when on wifi and phone is charge, but your phone storage was full so it stop backing up.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

When your phone was connected to your computer, you should've seen an autoplay which would've allowed you to import your pics to your computer as you would a digital camera Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

IPhone on current ios but wont let me restore without downloading latest ios (again)?

I have an iPhone 5s running ios 7.1.1
I've connected my iphone to my itunes (on a macbook pro 2011 latest edition) and am trying
to restore my iPhone. When I click on the restore button, it contacts the apple servers and then immediately
directs me to downloading ios 7.1.1 update (which is a 6 hour download for me!). Just to be sure, I returned
to the itunes main page and clicked 'software update' next to the 'restore' button to be sure I had the latest software. After clicking,
a message comes up that tells me that my iPhone is running the latest software.
I am not sure what to do. I just want to restore my iPhone without having to download an update that my phone already has....
Thank you!

Sounds like you updated your phone to iOS 7.1.1 OTA. If that's the case, then it means there is no current IPSW file on your computer. So, when you hit the restore button, iTunes will have to download iOS 7.1.1, to your computer, in order to complete the restore.
Sorry, no way around this.

Take your laptop to somewhere that has wifi so you can restore your phone using iTunes.
Nothing else you can do if you forgot your passcode and don't have internet.
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
How are you able to post on this forum if you have no internet?

I have a 3g iphone and I need to know how to delete old photos from my phone!! I need the space but there is no way to delete the pictures!! Help!!!

I have a 3g iPhone and I need to know how to delete old photos. Need to free up space and there is no clear way to delete these photos!! Can someone please let me know how to get rid of these pictures!!!! Help!!!

There are a number of ways to delete pictures from the Camera Roll. One is to open Camera Roll in the thumbnail view, tap the arrow button (top right), tap all the pictures you want to delete, tap the Delete button ant the bottom. Photo Library pictures are deleted by unchecking Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, followed by syncing your phone.

How to us iPhone backup file from Time Machine drive to restore iPhone

Stupidly, I deleted my primary account on my iPhone that contained my contacts and calendar. I don't currently subscribe to MobileMe. I took advantage of the free service when I bought my phone, but decided not to subscribe as I synch my iPhone to my computer and back up my computer using a hard drive connected with Time Machine. Unfortunately, when I stopped using MobileMe, a synch to my iTunes wiped out all my contact data in my Address Book on my computer and my calendar. Therefore, all my most current information was on my iPhone.
I went to the Apple store and was told that the iTunes backup file may be used to restore the contacts and calendar information on my iPhone. I synched my iPhone to iTunes and then did the iPhone restore to factory settings. Only then did I realize that the older, correct backup file was not an available option in the dropdown.
So, I'm trying to figure out how to pull an older iPhone backup file and then use it to restore the iPhone. The only thing is that when I go to Time Machine and look at an older Library --> Application Support --> Mobile Sync --> Backup folder, there's a whole bunch of .mdbackup files in there.
How do I select what I need? How do I get the iTunes protocol to run the restore on my iPhone using those files?

Select the folder that contains the .mdbackup files and use Get Info for the folder to check the date the backup was updated. I would forget about trying to extract individual .mdbackup files and transfer the entire folder to the same location on your computer's hard drive - with iTunes quit before doing so.
After doing so, this backup should be available to select when restoring your iPhone from your iPhone's backup.
If this is successful restoring contact info and calendar events on your iPhone, if the Address Book and iCal on your Mac is empty - it does not contain any data, before syncing your iPhone direct with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac, enter one unique contact in the Address Book, and one calendar event in iCal on your Mac. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing this data, which you want to select.
Does Time Machine include a backup of your Address Book and iCal on your Mac? If so, it will be much easier and faster to restore the Address Book and iCal on your Mac from your Time Machine backup.

I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

Did you already try these suggestions?
Check USB connections
Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Could you tell us a little more about what you want to do. Bear in mind that iTunes has nothing to do with your iCloud account.

I have two iPhones on my iTunes account. How can I find out what apps go to which phone?

I have two iPhones on my iTunes account. How can I find out what apps go to which phone?

I don't believe that there is a way to do that. I would sugest using automatic downloads to keep your apps synced across both phones. You might also want to note that just about any app you have ever download will be available for free download via icloud.
Wish I could be more help.
