Hero factory reset question?

[andcls]

Hi folks

Newbie here and I have a question, already?

I have ordered the DHD, and want to get rid of my HTC Hero, which I got unlocked when I was abroad (it was originally locked to T-mobile).

Please can someone advise, if I use the factory reset, will it mess up the unlocking?

Thanks

Nope, you can't accidentally relock a device by factory resetting/changing firmware/etc

Any tips on how to get rid of all my personal data/passwords etc?

If you factory reset the device it will basically be put back to its "out-of-the-box" condition. All your data will be wiped.

Although any data saved on your sdcard won't be, if you're selling that too. You'll have to format it, which you can do in the options.

That's excellent, many thanks for the advice.
