If I perform a factory reset from the Privacy option in settings will I lose root/SU? Just curious what will be the best way to get a stock backup image.
No, you will not loose root.

i've done it before,this occurs after i've rooted n default factory reset
My A100 is rooted (not touched the bootloader/installed custom ROM) - when i do a factory reset my understanding is that it will still remain rooted (I used ZeroNull's simple rooting method).
So when it's reset - do I simply re-install the Superser app and then Titanium backup - and then reinstall the backed up apps I want - or is there some step I'm missing here?
Thanks!
Factory reset is just that, goes back to how it was from the factory for the rom. In case of stock, no root. Just redo the root again. Or just check for root after the reset, but I doubt it stays.
Edit: after re root use TiBu to restore whatever you want, as its the same rom restore data too, unless some bug is why you want to reset.

Just did a factory reset. As expected it wiped everything - but I was still left with root access.

Ok good to know, thanks for letting us know. I didn't run stock long enough to do a reset on, but my other phones and tabs lost root.

Note that if you deleted any apks and do a factory reset, they are not restored. I deleted several apks for many of the preinstalled apps, and after I did a factory reset, they were not restored. So a factory reset does not really return the tablet to the state it was from the factory(no root, all system apps installed), rather it wipes all user and app data.
Yeah I should probably have mentioned it doesn't do much, if anything, to /system. Any changes there are likely left alone, which is why root stayed. The last time I did a factory reset was on my evo and it lost root for some reason. Same with my rooted stock nook, before cm7.

I rooted and unlocked my HTC one X I want to do a factory reset on it to clear all setting and files. I do not have clockwork installed just the stock rom.
Can I do a factory reset and not brick my phone?
I would assume so, I cant see what bad would come from it
I have a Samsung GT-I9060i and I would like to reset it. Do I have to perform a full unroot through SuperSU before the reset?
