Making a template

    Hi,
    I've finally set up my desire pretty well with all the best settings etc. I have a spare desire and at the moment have my friends desire too. I want to restore an image of my phone to each of the other desires, but at the same time, not have the google account info restored.

    I tried do a clockworkmod backup and restore to each of the other phones, which worked, but I was thinking I could simply "clear data" of each app, to get my account details off the phone. Unfortunately this isn't the case and the only way is to do a factory reset. I'm using mildwild 4.3 and not prepared to change ROM as it's working fine.

    Can anyone advise on the best way to get all the apps, settings and other "template" files to each of the new phones without the account info and without having to start from a factory reset with each phone?

    The aim is to get all 3 phones set up the exact same way, but just with their own google accounts and no trace of other accounts. It'd also be good to have the template as a backup.

    Any feedback appreciated :)

    Found a solution that should hopefully work to remove the google account, this was posted in another forum:
    I solved it, went into /data/system/ with Root Explorer and deleted the accounts.db file.
