[Q] Factory Data reset issue - HD2 General

Just got an HD2 in trade for a Captivate. Tried the Cappy but loved my HD2.
Problem I am having is when I go into settings-privacy-factory data reset it does not clean out the previous owners Google account.
Anyone know how I can do this.?
Currently running Hyperdroid-CM7magldr-5.3.0-Jumping_Jaguar
Any assistance is highly appreciated.

Try it from recovery:
MAGLDR > 8. AD Recovery > Wipe Data/Factory Reset > Yes ...

internet browser issues

I am on wifi and opening up browser and after a couple of screens it will just close and put me back on the desktop of the phone...I have tried a variety of sites and it still has the same outcome...
how can i make the browser stable...
have ice glacier v1.1.6 non themed installed
Try wiping the browser data under Settings -> Applications -> Browser -> Wipe. Did you system wipe your phone before flashing IG? I wiped mine clean going from Stock -> IG and have not seen this issue yet.
Install Flash 10 from Market. Known issue.

You missed a critical step. You MUST do this to correctly install the ROM. It its performed with Clockwork Recovery. Wipe and install once more.

You can either system reset under your settings menu (dig around, phone not with me atm, I promise it's there) or reboot into recovery and choose to system wipe via Clockwork.

[Q] how to delete your info nand hd2?

so i got mjd cyangamod 7 nand on my hd2 and i recently sold it because it was my second phone...ive been trying to delete my info and seem to got everything off i go into privacy and reset everything but in accounts/sync my email is still there and when i try to remove it it says to factory reset well ive done that a few times and its still showing up?
any help
Go in to MAGLDR, and select the option 'AD HardReset'. That should do the job.
You mean you want to completely remove android, or do you mean you want to remove all your data that was on android (emails, apps, messages, contacts, etc)? If it is the latter, then simply reflash the build. Hard reset in the settings won't solve your problem, as you've noticed. Or you could go into the email app, go to the settings and delete the accounts.
yeah i just want to remove all my data...would the hardreset work?
yes the MAGLDR AD hardreset will work. It will erase the phone's data, leaving only HSPL and MAGLDR. meaning it will remove android also
Yeah, if you go in to MAGLDR and do it. It doesn't work in Android, because it's not the HD2's native OS. There wouldn't be that feature of MAGLDR for no reason.
If that DOESN'T work, then most certainly re-flashing the ROM will work. But there's really no need.
but i would have to reflash anyway correct?, since it only leaves mag, and hspl
No. It just resets the NAND ROM. Doesn't over-write it or anything.
oh I assumed it would erase everything, oh okie, thanks for the info, and sorry about the misleading info.
hey thanks, i got into magdlr and did the reset then just booted into nand and it loaded back up new
how do i give you a thanks point?
No problem. Cotulla/DFT just wouldn't put that feature there for no reason.
But you're forgive, after all, you're Jamaican MON. hahaha. ;p

Why not flash a new stock rom onto it? That way you start truly fresh. Do a search for Flashtool or something like that or you could root and flash a custom rom onto your phone, it's simple and you will benefit alot from it!
first, I am sorry about your sister..
second, try install xrecovery or clockworkmod recovery
then, you may do factory reset by them

There you go! I'm sorry bout your sister, mate.
Do full wipe with xrecovery...

Selling my DHD with CM7.1 > Factory Reset?

Hello awesome people,
I will be selling my DHD (with CM7.1) to fund the next Android and have several questions:
1. Before I wipe, I will use the Titanium Backup (free) to backup all apps + contents plus SMS_Backup for the text messages.
2. I will be formatting the SD card before I put it in the phone to ensure nothing stays there.
3. If I run Factory Reset - is this enough to wipe it clean of all data?
Is there something else I should do, so I can a) wipe it clean and b) later restore on my new android phone?
Thank you for your help!

[Q] wipeout hd2 android

hi i have a question...
can someone help me on how to wipe my hd2 android hyperdroid 6.0.0

Wow, I've never seen someone so desperate for an answer that they've actually bumped their thread after TWO minutes.
The simplest way would be to just go to CWM, wipe data then flash the ROM again I guess. I assume that's what you want (effectively a factory reset), but you're making things confusing by saying just apps, sms, contacts etc. Surely this is the whole OS?!

seriously you only waited 2 minutes before asking again
and yea there is go into cwm and choose wipe data factory reset
simple as that
What Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset is there for, I ponder.

Lol that's what I was going to suggest at first but I remember reading that that just reboots the ROM for some reason. Meh, try it out I guess
my guess is, his going to sell/ give the phone to somebody
just do a Factory data reset & it will be as fresh as day....
