What old data? Stored where? What does Gmail have to do with this? How are
you "trying you admin Gmail account" in relation to your app?

What is "The Beta Test area in Google Dev"?


Pretend we have no idea what you're developing (because we don't), and that
we have never seen your app (because we haven't), and provide enough detail
to get a better understanding of the issue you're having.

[android-developers] How to Delete All App Data for Testing APK

[Cayce]

I've been pulling my hair out trying to finalize testing on an Android app 
that will not release data from the previously installed version. I'm using 
a Nexus 7 and Samsung Galaxy, and no matter what I do — clear the app 
cache, clear the app data, force quit the app, uninstall the app — it 
continues to load the new version with the old problems in place, and I 
know they've been corrected. The way I know this is that I did a complete 
wipe and factory reset of the Nexus, used a new Gmail account specifically 
for this experiment, and the app loaded as it should. But once I go back 
and try my admin Gmail account, it goes back to loading old data again.

Is there a way to COMPLETELY delete old data, so that each test of the APK 
is as if it was by a first time user? The Beta Test area I'm using in 
Google Dev is no help.

Thanks.
