Will a factory data reset (done from the actual phone) unroot the phone?

If I perform factory reset, do I have to re-root the phone?
What would be the best way to get rid of everything which would not require a re-root?
Just wipe data/cache and reboot you should be fine.
As per thread title, I was wondering if performing a factory reset removes root? I do not yet have a custom recovery, and the local stock KitKat OTA update is going out soon. I was considering holding off on the custom recovery and taking the OTA update, but my understanding is that doing so rooted will cause problems so I'm not about to try.
Basically, just how "reset" is the "factory reset" - and do the factory reset options in the Settings>Backup and Reset do the same thing as the Factory Reset from Power+VolDown boot?
root stays
Um, I'm pretty sure you lose root.
Your phone gets reset to factory default, which is no root...
And yes, it's the same as doing it from stock recovery or from the settings
Accidentally did factory data reset on my Oneplus 2. Any possible way to recover the data ?
So is there any difference between a factory reset from the settings or the factory reset from the recovery? Talking about stock here.
Nope, both are going to wipe all the user and system data.
Will a factory reset restore the firmware that was originally on the device or will it just wipe your data? I am currently on 5.3.2.1 and I believe it was on a rootable firmware before (I honestly don't remember which one).
