Factory Data Reset on ETCPad

Factory rest for software versions lower than 3.0.0

ETCPads that are running software below 3.0.0 can be restored to factory settings via the settings menu. 

This is to reset to ETC Factory defaults, not to Android factory defaults. 

If you navigate to Settings>Reset>Factory Data Reset>Reset Tablet the ETCPad will be restored to the state it was in when purchased from ETC.
