Factory Reset: silly question - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Nope, both are going to wipe all the user and system data.

If you can get into the phone's settings you can try uninstalling / reinstalling Launcherpro

If I do factory reset, do I have to re-root?

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.

[D803] Does doing a factory reset remove root? (applied via IORoot22)

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
