Delete info

[Anthony 23]

Just got my new Droidx. So far, I love it! Lots of my apps and info disappeared, im working that issue out. My question is this, how do I erase all info from my original Droid? Im wanting to sell it, and want all that stuff gone before I sell it.

To wipe your original droid, go to Settings/Privacy and select Factory data reset

don't forget to wipe your SD card too

How do I do that? The phone seems totally erased.

do you have any data stored on the sd card? some apps store data there. go to your apps folder and select "files". when the app opens, select "phone files". anything in there? if there's anything on there you care about, then at a minimum, you can go to settings, select "sd card & phone storage", then umount sd card, then format sd card. this will not actually wipe any data resident on the sd card (data can still be recovered), but at least it's not visible to the casual observer.
