Removing a GMAIL account from a G2 Touch

Hi people

I am returning my G2 Touch/HTC Hero as it is really slooooooow:mad:. I am in the process of removing my personal details but cannot figure out how to remove the Gmail account i set up at start up. Any ideas?

Couple of suggestions until you get a full answer...

Check the manual for how to do a system reset. Usually there is a tiny hole you can poke something in and hold.

Failing that

Can you just edit it and overtype your setup with garbage

A quick search shows this as the reset mechanism...

According to the official helpdesk of HTC (for me in France), you had to:

1/ Switch off the phone (either removing the battery or shutting down by holding the "end call" button for few seconds
2/ While being switched off, hold the "home" (house) and "back" (the arrow in the lower right corner)
3/ Hit briefly the "end call" button" while still holding the "home" and "back" buttons.
4/ Release the "home" and "back" button, a white screen containing technical information should appear, with a red message asking for hitting the "menu" button.
5/ Hit the "menu button", the Hero will now boot with factory settings.

Or the easy way - settings, security, scroll down to factory reset. I am pretty sure it is the same on my hero as your g2 touch as they are the same phone.
