Hi,
I know there is no official way to delete devices from Google play web site from here https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...0/https://play.google.com/apps&token=KIsW4Z_N and https://forums.androidcentral.com/e.../play.google.com/store/account&token=lm5uauf4 --> Settings
But if you want to delete it the unofficial way before selling your device here is how to do this.

Note: Sorry folks if your device is sold or stolen it?s not possible. You need the device with you to do this.
Warning: I take no responsibility blah blah blah!!!


Step 1: Make sure you have internet connection on your device.
Step 2: Setting-->Apps>All Apps[On extreme right]-->Google Service Framework-->?Clear Data?, then ?Clear cache?, if available & then ?Force Close?
Step 3: Open Play store, you will get a server error
Step 4: Go to settings-->About Phone-->System Update. Play store should work after this
Step 5: Do step 2 again. Please be patient. Check the play store website regularly, if the device is gone do step 2 one more time, just to be safe. Disconnect all internet from the device and wait for a day to make sure the device don?t comes back in play store website.

Do Not do step 3 or 4 if you device disappeared.

If device not gone continue step 2. Android need to update Google server. So be patient.
I think it?s worth a shot if it bothers you having the sold device there.

enjoy!!

If you are testing this and to get back all your device all you have to do is be patient. It might take an hour or even overnight to get all settings back to google server.

FYI: I tested this twice on my Nexus S
 
Worked for my Verizon Gnex but I can't get it to work with my Droid X?

Checked today and the Droid X is gone!
The Gnex went away right away?

Thanks
