Hey guys - been using the GNex as my daily driver for about 18 months now. Still a solid phone, but it's gotten bogged down, and is getting very laggy/buggy. I'm rooted, running Cyanogen Mod, whatever the latest one is.

What's the best way to totally wipe/reset the whole device and start from scratch? I want to keep it rooted and just put a clean version of the latest CM on there, but I want all exisiting data, partitions, etc. removed and restarted. Hoping this would make it run more smoothly.

Appreciate any tips!

Try clearing cache in recovery first. That may help a lot.
