[Q] Factory reset will lose root on xperia play?

[Phu_Kang]

Hi there,
I want to factory reset my Xplay.
Is factory reset will lose the root?What about CWM recovery,busybox,titanium backup,etc that i already installed (root required apps).Will it cause errors after i factory reset my Xplay?
Really need an answer..thanks ya!

I think a factory reset just resets anything in /data but anything in /system should be fine. So root, busybox, CWM should be fine (not entirely sure though, since I don't normally use the built-in factory reset)

It will delete your apps. If you have made a backup using Titanium Backup you can easily restore them, you'll just need to reinstall Titanium from the market.

Or you can tell titanium backup to create a update.zip which can be flashed to reinstall tb

You'd still need to download CWM from the market anyway, so it's easier to just install TB from there

uh no. you dont need to download CWM as it wouldnt have been removed.
