If I were to reset my tab using recovery menu restore factory default, would the root go? Just checking to confirm
Exactly
No, if you have custom prerooted fw, then root will remain.

Hi.
I'm on .21 rooted version (i've restored root by voodoo root keeper) but without CWM recovery and with locked bootloader.
Now, i want to do a factory reset. Then, can i be able to restore my root by voodoo root keeper??
thanks!
no one?
Factory reset is only a data wipe - there is no spare /system backup which might get restored. You should not loose root.
I got a rooted device installed clockworkmod recovery. just wondering if I do a factory reset in clockworkmod recovery will i loose root? Im using super su. If i do a factory reset from the phone when it's on super su and root still remain. Thats what i want.
You should stay rooted since a factory reset only touches /data. Rooting again shouldn't be hard anyway.
This was my first time i bought a Huawei phone and I accidental deleted built.prop. I think so.... Its with locked bootloader and i really dont know what to do as its a new phone. There is no recover out there. Please help me out. :crying:
Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so, perform a factory reset
Edit scratch that, you don't even need a custom recovery, just perform a factory reset in the stock recovery

Curious as to why you think that would work? build.prop is in /system. A factory reset won't bring that back.
Without the original firmware and a locked bootloader, there isn't much you can do...
Hi

you can flash stock recovery and unroot, but OTA update won't install; you need locked phone which does automatically factory reset; you can backup data using FlashFire even on encrypted partition as it makes file based backup and relock
That sucks big time. Doesn't worth the trouble.
I wonder why all the Chinese phones (and as far as I can tell, only them) make it such a hassle to root.
I've seen this on Oneplus, Xiaomi and now Honor.

how to install stock recovery in honor 9 STF- AL10? Can you help me?
I would like to factory reset my STF-L09 without locking the bootloader.
Is that possible and if so, how is it done?
I am on Oreo 8.0 EMUI 368 with bootloader unlocked (updated using HuRUpdater), TWRP installed, Magisk 17.0 installed and using Proto8 kernel.
All these features I would like to be installed again after a factory update.
You can perform a factory reset restoring factory settings on the phone settings, or entering recovery and formatting user data. Your bootloader will remain unlocked and Root/kernel should also remain.
