Guest lesinlondon Posted June 1, 2011 Report Posted June 1, 2011 Hi, Guys. Can anyone please help with this problem I need to delete the default email a/c, trouble is the Vega won't allow default email to be deleted as its needed for the market, etc. I could install stock 1.10 then flash with r8 again, but rather not go the long way round. I have to setup a new email account as the old default one will not be used anymore. How can I unlink this email from current installation. Thanks for help! Les.

Go to settings, privacy, factory data reset. This will wipe all settings and you can setup new email accounts. I don't think there is a way to remove the default email without doing a data reset though :D Steven

Guest Logseman Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) Steven, thanks for this. I will give it a go. Much appreciated! If you still haven't given it a go, you could go to "accounts and sync" on Settings, select your Gmail account and pick there "Delete account". It will wipe the account-related data, such as the Google services logins (Gmail, Market, Maps, Youtube et al.). It won't delete your Market purchased apps though. Edited June 2, 2011 by Logseman

I haven't got the Vega with me at the mo, so can't try. I did go to 'accounts and sync' and try to delete the a/c but it won't let me delete the default email. Also tried to stop it syncing, but it continued to try, so I changed my Gmail password online, so now it can't sync and I get a red triangle up top notifying me of this. I really need to delete this a/c so it can work with the new one. Thanks for reply! Les
Guest lesinlondon Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 It seems that the factory data reset option isn't there on the r8 rom. Can someone please check on theirs to confirm. Thanks.
