centermedic Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 So my EVO LTE has been passed down to my seven year old with a wifi only connection. I noticed the other day that he was receiving my emails. I have disabled the sync function. My question is how do I totally disassociate the phone with my gmail account without wiping the phone?

Paynefanbro Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Go to accounts and sync, and click your Gmail. Click the menu button in the top right and click remove account. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miguell2 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Wouldn't it be quicker to simply factory reset the device? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paynefanbro Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Wouldn't it be quicker to simply factory reset the device? He just wants to remove the account, not reset the device. Removing the account isn't hard at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket87 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 On many earlier devices the original gmail on the phone can only be removed by a reset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if giving my kid or anyone for that matter my old phone. I wipe it clean before they get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, the phone was half his already. That boy coerced me into downloading all types of apps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongboy Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I did something similar except the five year old left the phone out for the two year old to get it who promptly dialed 911... Now the 5 year old plays with my old IDEN BlackBerry. Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
