Relocking bootloader - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi buddy! Just want to ask if relocking bootloader will wipe my Custom recovery, will be unrooted, and will wipe my internal Storage?
Will it wipe my System and Data also?
Thanks in advance.

Do a clean wipe before flashing. ....always be on latest recovery

Whenever you flash a new rom, don't flash any mods directly. Complete the initial setup, wait for 5 minutes for the rom to settle, then reboot. Later you may flash mods

Everything like you wrote, after flashing rom always do first boot. After this works great until i reboot phone.
Also do a tutorial by someone, factory reset-flashing rom, wipe cache and dalvic-flashing gapps for 4.3 and wipe cache/dalvic-reboot and also doesnt work.

Uhm, i'm guessing you tried to flash the new 4.3 Leak ROM
Bet you 10$ you didn't flash the new Bootloader before flashing the MJ5 or MI6 ROM?
You lose , i flash mj5 bootloader first

Good
I don't what else could be the problem. Tried Super Wipe? (Philz recovery ---> Wipe Data/Factory Reset ---> Clean before installing new ROM?)

How to factory reset after rooting

So yeah I've flashed cwm and I've flashed super su. Zip via CWM on my galaxy grand. So my question is how would I factory reset? My phone is going really slow and I'm wanting to factory reset it. How can I do that? can I just do it like that? Or would I have to unroot first and then do it?

Go to Cwm recovery, backup your phone,, press factory reset, option available on Cwm recovery.. After rest, restore from previous made backup. That's all.. It Will affect your rooting

Can you please be a bit more detailed? like how would I use titanium back up and stuff?
EDIT: This is my brother's phone and he's the one who's asking these questions, just saying.

Formatting sd

I want to format my phone to clean all the crap files iv accumulated. If I format through twrp, will it just reinstall the current rom I'm running? Did this before on my s4, just want to make sure. Thanks guys

Like internal storage you meant? I always do that on top of cache and dalvik wipe to get a full clean install and no trace of previous rom. To be on safe side always have nand backup when doing that.

Yeah like if I go to wipe, then select all except system or that also?

Factory reset, advance wipe, then I wipe cache, dalvik, system, data and internal storage. I have all my back ups in external card including copy of titanium backup for data. Then I flash any custom rom.

Need more information. Which recovery are you using? What's your phones bootloader? Which rom are you trying to flash? Is the new rom on the sdcard? Did you download the rom on the computer then transfer files? Did you wipe everything including internal storage?

Internal storage wipe

What all am I risking doing an internal storage wipe? I know whatever pictures and passwords will be gone but what else? haven't done that with a phone that had root and unlocked bootloader.

If you're unlocked and rooted, that will not effect it. Only data.

No. Wiping internal storage has nothing to do with bootloaders or root.
It's a good idea to do so after unlocking a bootloader. Whether or not there are cooties from Kingroot/Kingoroot left, it made me feel better to format internal storage after the unlocking process.
It's probably best to do this in conjunction with flashing a ROM.
OK thanks for the responses back. I jumped on the band wagon when we first got the bootloader unlock method. And have been flashing back and forth between ROMs and its just been piling up unneeded data
