Need help FAST!!
Sorry, I literally have about an hour to do this. My old Droid is needed by my significant other, she has another phone coming in but needs this one for the next two weeks. I primarily want to ensure that I have EVERYTHING deleted from EVERY part of this phone before handing it off to her. I'm deleting all the contacts/texts manually in the phone and I've deleted all the pictures I could find. How do I do a FULL wipe?? I have rooted it so long ago I don't know if the factory reset will work.
THANKS!!!!

Factory reset and if your giving her the SD, format it.

Settings-->Privacy-->Factory data reset. Erases everything on phone. make sure you remove the SD card too.

Will she need my SD Card ?? Or will they give her one in the mean time?

If you want to return it to stock, use this thread: If you have FC, lag, sounds, etc and think your og droid HW is failing - READ THIS.
You can also flash a rooted stock rom with that method.
If you just want to fully wipe it, and its still rooted, just go into recovery and do it through there. As long as I had my D1, I never did a factory reset. So I'm not sure what all it deletes.
edit: looks like someone beat me to it

Depends on the phone she's getting. most come with one, but some of the newer ones don't allow for external SD Cards.

You mean VZ giver her another? Doubt it. One may come with the new phone though. If she already has an SD she could just put that in the phone!
