Hello,
I am currently running Nuclear Rom 7.1.2 on my zuk z1 with TWRP recovery. What if I do factory reset of my phone, will the phone stays the same with rom, gapps and super su and all the data will be wiped
OR
it will remove the root and get the phone back into its proper shape
OR
will it brick my device
I am asking if I do factory reset from Settings -Back up and reset - Factory reset
I am selling my phone in the market so want to confirm that what would be the scenario if I wipe my data like that

Better to flash it again and wipe all data

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

Are you saying that you have apps left over from your previous cyanogen mod install? If so you forgot to wipe something that you should have. When going from Cyanogen to Stock I wipe cache, dalvik, data, system, and internal storage. Then I go through the stock installation procedure and then on top of that once it boots I still do a factory reset (which assuming the previous wipes did what was needed probably isn't required).
Hi,
I have G935F, installed TWRP 3.0.0.0 and rooted, WITHOUT wiping. System boots correctly, but I cannot do factory reset or wipe with TWRP, because I got some messages like "Cannot mount Data" and "Failed crypto loader". I understand that it has to do with encryption. Can someone please enlight me, and give me tips about the issue?
Thank you

You have to download dm-verity and force encryption disabler from here , put it to SD card, reboot into TWRP, FORMAT DATA (not wipe) and flash that file (dm-verity and force encryption disabler). All your data will be erased.
No way to unencrypt without loosing you data for the moment(
"All your data will be erased" means that after boot I'll find a clean system installation (as factory reset)?
I hope not to be posing stupid questions, I'm completely new to this world
Thank you very much
Yes just as a factory reset

No, you cannot perform a backup, because your data is encrypted by default and the only way to disable it is to format your data.
I have a unique problem. I have a HTC Desire 612 from Verizon and I decided to revive it to playe PoGo. But it was stuck in a boot loop and I couldn't get any custom ROM.
Finally a gentle soul here gave me the stock rom and I flashed it vide TWRP and played PoGo for weeks. Then yesterday the phone bro led and when it came up it was stuck in a boot loop.
So I decided to flash the stock ROM again. But before that I tried to factory reset. I could go to TWRP, select wipe data, enter yes and the wiping was successful, then clear dalvic and cache and system beforehand finally I flashed the stock ROM.
Surprise surprise is NOTHING happens. The phone boots without the apps telling me they are installing. Then I get back the exact same data in my phone including my selected wallpaper and apps. Before I can do anything the phone restarts.
Point is wiping and restoring the stock ROM does NOTHING to the phone yet the processes are successful. Can somebody help?

It really is about TWRP failing to wipe
Hey, I have LG G2 D802 with TWRP recovery and CM13 ROM and I would like to give this phone to my dad and I want to delete all apps and settings, but if I will do factory reset, it will remove CM 13 and give back stock rom that I dont want. How do I delete all apps and settings without removing CM13? Btw I cant reflash CM again because CM Download is dead.
Thanks

Hi!
It won't. A "factory reset" will reset the current OS to the point you flashed CM13, not the entire phone. There is no stock OS on your device anymore. Only CM13. So, just do it.
No need to flash a stock rom. If you want delete all apps and settings just do a factory reset through twrp recovery and if you want delete all data and files photos videos ... go to format data . any rom on your phone you can delete it only in advanced wipe>wipe system, not when you do a factory reset like you think
So I flashed the latest version of TWRP on my s7 edge SM-G935F
And I got the error "failed to mount data" I formatted my phone and I didn't see the error again, I rebooted my phone and everything was working fine then when I wanted to root my phone with Magisk, i went back to TWRP recovery and I got the error again, so I formatted my phone again and rooted it, then I rebooted my phone and I said that the data is corrupted that I should reset my phone to factory reset, I went back to TWRP recovery and still get the same error.
It's like the TWRP recovery is not stable and it also reset immediately you leave so that when you come back you must format your data or factory reset it before you can use the recovery.
Can Anyone help fix this problem, I don't want to wipe/factory reset my phone every time I go to recovery. What if I make a mistake and go to recovery? That means I must wipe/factory reset my phone before using.
Please help!

If it's telling you "failed to mount /data", go to wipe > format data and type yes. Factory reset, do your things and then reboot back and install what you want, you shouldn't get the error anymore.
But later if I want to flash another thing like a mod, I have to wipe data again

Nono. Wipe data once, factory reset in twrp, and you don't need to wipe data again after that. Only wipe it once after you format data.
