will factory resetting device lose root and twrp ? - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Guys I need a fast response please,
I have a rooted Oneplus 6t mclaren with magisk (stock rom), I sold the device the buyer will come in a few hours. My question is, when I format the phone by factory resetting it, will the device lose magisk root and twrp ? If yes then I need to reinstall twrp then magisk ?

If someone is buying it why would you need to unlock and root it again? Just do it, if you lose root than great if not then no big deal just install stock boot image.
I'd be super sketched out if someone tried to sell me a pre rooted phone.

thank you, what is the easiest way to unroot phone ? I think its better to sell it without root.

Magisk manager, unroot then relock
Or
Fastboot flash stock ROM then relock

About rooting.

I unlocked my VNS-L21 with this https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
I want to root the phone now.
In the guide it says that i must install TWRP and afterwards i can root.
AFAIK, from my experience with other phones, when i install TWRP it will mess up my current OS so i would need to install other OS.
Is that correct or if i install TWRP and then Root, the phone will boot normally to STOCK OS?

you basically need to unlock the bootloader after requesting a code for it, then you can fastboot flash twrp, and then you can root it. your phone will be factory reset, but rooted.
twrp doesn't change anything in any rom.

Can I root and keep the stock ROM?

I have bought an LG G6 (US997) and planning on rooting it.
Can it be rooted and keep the stock ROM?
TIA
Yes course it can lol.
Yeah you can
I have rooted h870 with stock rom but when you get a new ota you can't install then you need a zip file for the new update and install it with your twrp
Thanks for the replies!
So, the G6 will be rooted the moment I unlock the bootloader?
No ! after unlocking the bootloader you need to install twrp and root ( superSu or Magisk ) for your phone but before doing it your phone need to be a free carrier
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/recovery-twrp-lg-g6-us997-unofficial-t3629883
So you have 3 steps
1-Unlock bootloader
2-Flash twrp
3-Flash root
Good luck and be carefull to no brick your phone or lose your data
You should really do some more research before doing this. You clearly don't have a clue.

When you say Flash root , do I simply install SuperSU? If yes, what method of installation works? Play Store, ADB, or TWRP?
Thanks again.

I'd recommend Magisk over SuperSU at this point. Download the Magisk zip and flash it with TWRP.
If you don't root immediately after installing TWRP, your phone will revert to the stock recovery on the next boot.
Try this guide, it will answer some of your questions:

How unroot MI A1 without reflashing?

I ever read how root and unroot with magisk, but it must download and reflashing stock rom to unroot it.
Is there a more simple way to unroot MI A1?
As simple as choose menu > unroot
I really want root my phone, but only after I found simple way to unroot it again.
Thanks

Why? At the very least you will need to uninstall via a flashable ZIP, but this will still mean the dm-verity is probably disabled and the bootloader is unlocked. Any half decent app which detects root will also detect these, and without MagiskHide they will be even more easily detected.
I thought there is a option to un-root phone in Magisk manager with restoring stock boot image.

Root without twrp

I brought a OnePlus 6t and immediately unlocked the bootloader. In hindsight, I wish I hadn't as I'm not really sure I need root.
But now I have, I need to root to use various apps now that I have unlocked the bootloader.
When I first rooted it, I didn't install twrp but can't remember what I did and cant find any guides.
Can anyone let me know what process I need to root without installing twrp please?

Boot in fastboot mode, then temporarily boot into TWRP (fastboot boot TWRPimage.img) and flash magisk zip and reboot system.
P.s. "boot" command does not permanently flash the image.

If you need root without twrp you can patch the boot image for root access

Unlocked bootloader, no root: how to fix GPay?

I've unlocked bootloader with the official tool but didn't do root. Now I have trouble with GPay saying that my device cannot be used for paying.
I don't need root now. So, the question is: is there any way to relock bootloader without rooting the device, installing TWRP, Magisk etc? Or, maybe, can I just trick GPay into believing that everything's fine without relocking?
Any response would be strongly appreciated.

If you don't need root, why did you unlock it in the first place? You can't relock your bootloader if you have unlocked it with official tool. But by installing Magisk, you can use GPay. If you don't need root, disable it in Magisk settings.

I was trying to resolve some strange unmanageable issue with BT headphones volume and sound quality by installing Ainur module. But somehow it resolved on its own during the unlocking process (due to reset, I guess).
Anyway, I've got the answer: no GPay without root and Magisk. Thank you!
