Why didn't you just wipe the data from it and start again?

I got my previous phone three years ago - the battery has gone to pot and Verizon has been telling me I'm reading for an upgrade - but I kept putting off going to the Verizon store to get a new one. I thought, sure, I'll go for the secure phone which is the product itself, and not the one that is created by companies that wish to make me the product.
