Default [Q] Setup app loop

After doing a factory data reset I accidentally selected the motorola setup app or whatever app that is that sets up.

Here's me explaining what it does right now - It's at the 'Setup accounts' page where you can add 'corporate' 'corporate sync' or 'google' accounts. At the bottom is a selection 'Done adding accounts'. If I click that I get a force close on 'The application Accounts (processcom.motorola.setup) has stopped expectedly. Please try again.'

If I tap 'force close it takes be back to the same app. I think I accidentally set the 'accounts setup' app as my launcher or something. How can I this default off or how can I reboot into clockwork to AGAIN restore to factory?

PLEASE help! Small donation may be in order for you.

Before you ask, I cannot get into settings to access 'privacy' to restore. and I cannot access apps (not that I haven't tried)

You try pulling the battery?

External reset:

- Power off (or pull battery)
- Hold volume buttons+power button until you get to "Boot Mode Selection Menu"
- Use volume down button to scroll to "Recovery"
- Use volume up button to boot into recovery
- Press both volume buttons when you see the Android and the exclamation mark
- Use volume down to scroll to "Wipe data/factory reset"
- Use power button to select it
- Scroll down to "Yes" and use power button to select it

Wait for it to finish and then reboot.
