(Q) Master Clear Rooted Phone....

What happens if you master clear a rooted android 2.1? Should it be unrooted first?

If you are using a stock ROM you will lose Root (to the best of my knowledge). If it's a custom ROM you will keep it.

[Q] Make backup of stock Froyo

just got my new Defy and was looking forward to install custom roms. but how do i backup my stock froyo in case i want to go back?

is it possible to lose root access?

Hi, i flashed stock rom to OpenOptimus and now superuser and other root apps are crashing. Before titanium backup and other stuff worked. How is it possible to lost root access? iam using P500

Of course, the stock rom isn't rooted.
Root access is per ROM.
Going back to a not rooted rom, you lost superuser access and thus all apps requiring it crash.

But you don't have to root your phone completely new. Just flash a rooted ROM and everything would work again ;-)

[Q] Flashed to 4.0.3

i flashed to leak 4.0.3 now i can use titanium back up to restore apps do i have to root my phone again.....

Hello
if the rom wasnt prerooted, you should root it again

Once you root phone, phone will stay rooted In titanium backup you just need to allow super user permision.

root or not, it's depend on your needs. if you want to install aplications that only work in rooted phone, you have to root it, but if you don't...., you don't have to root it.....

[Q] Lost root after Safestrap 3.65 wipe

RAZR Maxx OTA .165. I rooted then install SS 3.65 and Titanium backup. My phone was slowing down so I decided to wipe using SS and recover to factory software. I now cannot figure out how to reroot so I can use Titanium to restore files. How do gain root back?
Also can you suggest a ROM for other slots...I was trying to install Liquid Smooth...but I didn't know if I had to load g-apps before or after ROM is installed.
Thanks Ken
