About the full erase options
In most cases, you can perform a regular full erase if you want to erase downloaded applications and USB drive storage files from your device.
Perform a secure full erase when you give your device to somebody else and you don’t want that person to be able to access your data.
Regardless of which full erase option you choose, all your data on the web—in your online accounts and in your HP webOS Account—is untouched.
After either type of full erase, you can sign in to your HP webOS Account either on a new webOS device or the same device you just erased.
Signing in restores your HP webOS Account data and information from online accounts, but not your stored
files such as pictures, videos, and music - you must copy those again to the device
