If I factory reset rooted android, will reset work or not as I had changed the filesystem?
Will twrp get removed?
Also will it now be unrooted or rooted after reset?
Also is it possible to install stock of Samsung M20 in J2 pro? I am noob. Please guide me.
I want android to reset completely, as I have some hotspot and wifi issues with rooted android? Or is there a way I can just reset my hotspot and wifi?

What does this actually do to a rooted phone running 2.2 android? Will this unroot the phone? Hard reset is the same as restore to factory settings right?
Will not unroot. It will wipe all user info, apps, settings etc.
+1 on bender's comments. Did several hard resets the other night and kept root through all of them.
to a rooted phone, the rooted build is the factory settings. doesnt do ****.
I have a UVUEMK2. I had to get the phone encrypted for work, little did I know it would cause issues. I would have to go back to stock for the work email to work. Wouldn't sit well with root.
I backed up everything and tried to remove encryption before doing ODIN to no avail. No one really knew how to remove encryption. I tried factory data resets, and finally I tried to ODIN my stock firmware but now that's stuck on the T-Mobile 4G LTE Boot Screen.
I went into recovery and tried to factory data reset from there, but somethings fail because of the encryption. I did it anyways, wiped data at least. Reboot > Still Stuck, but no encryption screen this time?
Now I flashed the same stock firmware again, if anyone knows what to do or how to remove encryption that would be awesome. Right now I can only access recovery and download mode.
I don't need anything from the phone, everything is backed up.
It was rooted, on Davandh 4.4.4 Kit Kat. Encryption from the security settings. Baseband UVUEMK2.
I have never tried doing a factory reset after rooting my phone. But I am now faced with the need to so that I can test my wifi on all original settings before deciding if I need it replaced. I am running the stock ROM. I only rooted it do use Titanium Backup and to bring in my phone history.
I have the LG G3 from/on T-Mobile.
Model: LG-D851
Version: D85110m
Build Number: KVT49L.D85110m
So can I do the factory reset without unrooting the phone? Or should I unroot it first?
Thanks!

You should be fine factory reseting it as long as you didn't Change or remove anything from /system/ and so on. (Includes bloatware). Most of the time factory resetting it unroots also. Good luck.

With stock rom i dont have twrp ☺my problem is with stock rom
My problem is with stock rom. After i flash with clean install stock kdz rom 20e, my so is messed up.
I already tried factory reset after clean install and didnt work. stock 4.4.2 is ok but stock 5.0 no

Ok bricked my Metro GS4 the first time I tried to root, did the un-root and it worked fine, except the wifi will not turn on, I installed TM 4.4.2.
I rooted it with towelroot so it is rooted, I have read that a factory reset worked for some people where their wifi was frosted out, but my question is,
1. Do I need to worry about that since I am wanting to install custom roms, is the wifi just a problem in the rom I used to flash it to, or something else that will be wrong in any rom I use?
2. If I do the factory reset, does this remove root access?

1. You should make sure everything works before flashing any ROMs. You should consider using Odin to return to complete stock, then check wifi before moving forward. Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems.
2. Factory Data reset does not remove root. It does remove all other user data and downloaded apps as well as things stored on internal storage so back everything up to a computer first.
You stated
"Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems."
I not sure if I understand, "stock based" I think I used a stock, out of the box, backup, for my un-bricking, that is a 4.4.2
How do I know if they are a later versions OS of my modem and bootloader? I see one here on XDA that is "Stock/Base" that is 4.4.4, but don't know if it is later OS or not.
Factory reset did not fix wifi, and I had backed up with Titanium, but once it restarted titanium cannot find the backup on SD card, so I guess I don't know how to do that either.
Got it going, flashed it to 4.4.4 NH7, and Titanium worked great, I did the backup and then copied them to the SD card, not sure why I can't save them straight to the SD card, but this way worked.
Got your wifi back?
Pp.
Yes got the wifi going
