re-set nexus 7

[notforme]

Have had my Nexus for just over a month now,and sport to say I have lost interest in it,I find it to fussy to use and to be honest apart from reading news items and emails I can't find any use for it,OK its got games which are OK if you like games,watching films on it is a waste of time. It's probably me in a way as I have been brought up with computers,keyboards and monitors,so I have made up my mind it has to go. If I reset It does it remove all my personal info, I do not want to be selling it with my email details on etc

It should, except it won't clear out the SDcard unless you relock the bootloader.

Unlock/relock, that would wipe it

Although doing a factory reset from within the OS (like from the main settings menu) should wipe everything, sd included.

Never tried that, I don't trust stock recovery or things labeled as "factory"
