    Default Android tablets

    I have 2 android Tablets.Somehow I stuffed up the Google pasword and I am not able to re-set it on the tablets.I have Gmail and can reset it on the computer but it does not reset the tablets.
    Any help appreciated as I am not able to access the market.
    I am short of factory reset(not sure if that will work)
    Thanks in advance.

    Just a thought, can you go to settings and then Accounts and Sync. Click on the account to open it and then you should have a "Remove account" button at the bottom. You should be able to relog back into your gmail account with the reset password.

    Never tried it but it would be the way I think it would work.

    Done it on my new 10" tablet as it had only a few apps.
    Opened a new google acc. and had to set up WiFi.
    It removed all downloaded apps and had to recalibrate the screen.
    Thanks again

    If you had root access, I would suggest Titanium Backup (the only reason to root a phone or tablet), as it backups data and the apps.
