Hi

I'll be upgrading from my trusty Desire to a shiny new One X soon, so am wondering how I can make sure all traces of my apps, data, etc. are gone as I'll probably sell it on to one of those phone recycling places. Or maybe pass it on to a friend. Who knows?!

Anyway my Desire is S-OFF, rooted, CWM recovery and CM7.2 ROM. There'll be a few Nandroid backups on there, so presumably doing a fresh wipe and reinstall of CM7 won't quite be enough.

Anyone got any good suggestions, please?

Thanks

Rob

 

So just a case of running an RUU from [ROM] Official HTC Desire RUU ROMS and OTA Update URLs - xda-developers , presumably the first one would be OK? As they're *.exe files, do they just run straight from Windows provided you've got the HTC drivers installed and USB debugging enabled?

Yep, I'll be keeping the SD Card (not that I can use it in my 1X!)

 

Just so I'm clear, do I flash the img before running the RUU or after?

 

That's got me thinking!

 

Spent hours trying to get Runnymede to work. Installs fine via 4EXT but the reboot just gets stuck on the HTC white screen. Waited 1 hour, pulled the battery, reinstalled, waited another hour, same thing!

Gonna give up on that and just flash an RUU to at least get it working...
