OK AVG have reached a new low in my mind.
I had the AVG Cleaner installed, removed it, and now I cannot remove the AVG Apps Data Sync account, and as a result, I cannot reset the phone (which I need to do for other reasons).
AVG software has rendered a perfectly useable phone completely bricked if this can't be solved.

Hi,
I have solved it. I decided to reinstall AVG Cleaner, to see if that would help - but it was already installed.
I think Google Play reinstalled it after I uninstalled it. I'm not sure how or why. Possibly because I unlinked the Google Account before uninstalling AVG, and then had to re-link it again. So Google Play thought it should still be there.
Anyway, with the Google Account linked, I uninstalled it again, and the Apps Data Synch Account is now gone. That would make Google Play the culprit, and not AVG. My apologies.

Phone now resets.
Thanks for your attention. Please close the ticket (and delete this thread if you like).
