I have a galaxy s10+ and i rooted it and installed a custom rom and did a few changes. The question is that, will those changes and the custom rom stay/retain after i unroot my phone? i used Magisk app if that helps.
It depends on what kind of changes. File changes remain, but you'll lose permissions for applications and services that required a permanent root presence.

I actually changed my phone's imei number. But a few days ago somehow my phone automatically got unrooted, i even tested it with root checkers and also Magisk says not rooted too.
But the thing is that the imei is not changed and is working fine.
For that reason, i haven't let the phone die or restart it since then because im scared that something might go wrong i.e. Changes get reverted, boot loop and etc.
Someone else did the root and imei change for which is why i dont really know much about this stuff. Any help will be appreciated 🙏

Hello and good morning, @fakhar_nadeem

Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed your thread! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.
