Question Factory-reset my Android installation

How do I "factory-reset" my android installation? I ask because I want to remove the first google account I added and there seems to be no other way.

Is the my only option to delete all Android files from my SD card and re-copy them?

Delete the file "data.img" in your Android install. While NOT in Android of course. Then start up android again.
Smartphones are only as smart as the user
