Hi all, I was wondering if I do a factory reset will it affect my FW updates? Will it downgrade back to when I bought it? Thx
Nope, the Factory Reset just delete all your personal data (setting, contacts, etc...) and your FW is stay same

To make sure you back up all your data before you try anything and lose it all and end up cursing yourself and everybody else too...

factory reset doesnt reset back to what was on your phone when you bought it, but it resets back the firmware you have, so it'll be like when you just flashed your froyo (unless you deleted some system apps, they will still be missing). Flashing will anyways delete your data, so its not a big deal. I think you need to factory reset because maybe not everything will be wiped while flashing and some trouble might occur due to inconsistencies

Yes you can. Not an issue.
If you factory reset all you data (images songs contacts) will get wiped.

good afternoon,
A quick question-is there a difference between the two? Meaning, does the bootloader factory reset wipe the phone more than going in to settings and factory resetting from there?
