Signature problems

[Guest Abyss]

I recently bought the SPV e200 of ebay and as i went to write a new text msg i noticed at the bottom it had thename of who i bought it off as a signiture, now i looked around the phone to remove it and found inside inbox>options>signatures what i thought was the answer, i it has select acount at the top and under SMS the box for 'Use signature with this account' was unchecked, i then went accross toActiveSync and this time the 'Use signature with this acount was checked as well as 'Includewhen replying and forwarding' and under that the signature was there. Now i deleted the signature from there and unchecked both boxex and went to continue writing the text msg but the signature had not gone, i went back to signature options and the signature on ActiveSync had come back to what it was before i had deleted it. is there a way i can remove it permenently posibly in another options menu or something like that?

Welcome to the forum :D

When you buy a second-hand Smartphone you should perform a hard reset to clear out the previous owner's settings etc.

i did a ROM upgrade and it was there after that, isnt that the same as wiping it and re-installing new drivers, or does a hard reset change other things to?

It's not quite the same thing.

I have no idea how the signature thing works TBH but would definitely do the hard reset.

yeh its all sorted, the hard reset fixed it, thanks
