How to change gmail account synced with the G1?

[ahap]

I have the G1 phone, and the gmail account I had synced with it was deleted. Now, when I go to Gmail or Google Talk on my android, it simply asks for the password to the deleted account. There is no option to change the username. Can anyone help me with how to sync a new gmail account with my G1? Thanks!

Some people say you can go to Settings > Apps > Manage Apps and clear the defaults for the gmail app, but that didn't work for me. The only other way is to wipe the phone and start over.

To wipe, turn off the phone. Hold the Home button and press the power button. You will boot into recovery at this point. Press Alt + L then Alt + W and this will wipe it. You can then hold Home + Back to reboot the phone.

Keep in mind, if you wipe, you will lose all your apps, contacts, settings, and everything else. It'll be as if you just opened the box and turned on the phone for the first time.

Hope this helps.
