http://phandroid.com/2008/10/25/how-to-reset-your-g1-and-start-from-scratch/ "I did today what you are wanting to do and it went fine. Sym card wasn’t touched and I’m doing the same thing you want to do with my google apps address." http://forums.t-mobile.com/tmbl/board/message?board.id=Android3&thread.id=21321 No mention of re-activation, and you would think T-Mobile would bring up that point, considering it would likely involve their tech support folk. http://forums.t-mobile.com/tmbl/board/message?board.id=Android3&message.id=25212 Again, no mention of needing re-activation. You may wish to conduct your own searches on "factory data reset" to see if you find other evidence one way or another. > I understand that the device is manufactured, and I am happy to have > 70 MB for apps (at least until a next release enables apps to launch > from a modified FAT32 SD card or whatever Google comes up with), but > the thing is I *don't* have these 70 MBs, I have 1/10 of them :((( Again, your phone probably started with ~70MB. Something with your phone (development? third-party apps? OTA update? G1/Android bugs? fussing around with root?) ate up memory in some hidden fashion. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 2.0 Available! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
