Hi guys, sorry in advance for my silly question, I have just installed a factory ROM on my LG E900 (optimus 7) and have the version 7.0.7004.0... after that I have unlocked the phone usind the phones registry editor (not chevron) and I think everything went well (no errors)... but after all that I made a factory reset on the phone, now my question is: do I need to unlock it again after factory reset or it remained unlock anyway? Thanks in advance for any assistance and for your pacience as well.
What do you mean by factory reset?
Also there is one easy way to test - try sideload an application.
I would imagine that a reset would set your phone back to the way it was when you got it / after flashing it.

factory resetting your devices deletes all the information/saved data/your apps. Its not possible. BTW why you need to factory restore?
Thank you commens!

Hello guys, i have an oneplus one for a month or two and yesterday i rooted it using Kingroot *i haven't unlocked the bootloader or something like this, just pressed root and waited* , i have busybox , lucky patcher things like this nothing special. Since then my cellular network won't start. Is the only solution to unroot or even maybe reset the phone to the factory settings? I would preffer not to.

root does not affect network generally .check apn settings and
unlocking bootloader does not void warranty and do not use one click root if not urgently needed

I spoke with a pro from my network provider and he made do some steps and it didn't help me, he said to me to check the sim and the sim works perfect on a non rooted android. So i guess its from the root.
Edit: he asked me if i re-softed my phone and told me to do a factory reboot if the sim is good.

reset data is setback try using custom recovery for new modems or new ROM and use titanium backup for safety it would not help in future if it is because of root.

I don't want to change my cyanogen rom, it's great, i'll unroot it and maybe even reset it. I need the data more than the root.
Thanks!

Your best bet is to unlock bootloader, wipe system and reflash your ROM (with custom recovery) , there are COS signed flashable zips in General Section. Unlocking bootloader if you've never done it before wipes the phone so backup your data to a PC and keep it unlocked, it doesn't void your warranty and it makes troubleshooting issues much easier. Factory reset of the phone WILL NOT remove root.

Well i already unrooted it and deleted everything.I'm afraid to unlock the bootloader because i have never done something like this, my biggest experience with androids software is to root them with android apps . Would you recommend me to re-soft it to cm 13 official build or to factory reset it? I'll look for a tutorial for the bootloader and do my best.
Oh, and by the way, if i clear it unlock the bootloader etc and i can't fix the problem what should i do?
I'm a newbie so probably what i'm asking is stupid, but isn't there any chance that the bootloader is unlocked? I can enter it idk..
Check you APN settings , erase them and rewrite them. Root does not affect network. And i don't see how you would be able to switch ROMs if you don't unlock your bootloader...
thats why i said that i will unlock the bootloader. and i did the apn checking with a pro from the orange *my provider* and nothing, he even changed my settings from their system. It has too be from the root , i used the cellular to download the apps for the root, then rooted it rebooted and no more cellular.
Oh and i have another reason to think its from the root because after i rooted the phone some apps started to fall down. Apex launcher for example.

moreover when <theguy> u use custom recovery do not modify system partition if u want ota
a q to <expert> is he able to flash systemless root without modifying system partition?

So you've been on CM13 and you're flashing kingroot? #facepalm
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk
No, I used kingroot on 12.1 yogd7, I unrooted it and tried to flash it to 13. I'll resoft it to the stock that's my only option. Does the resoft to the stock *with a PC* void my warranty?

Seriously go do some major reading cause you seem to know nothing and despite having issues with your phone since recently have made zero effort to use the stickies and guides in General section as well as this section where you posted this question. The information you need to learn is all over. Flashing the factory image needs an unlocked bootloader last I checked (might be wrong) and you have to do it via fastboot. There are stickies for OPO you just have to click and read or even go to YouTube lots of people have provided step by step guides.
It will not void your warranty, neither will unlocking your bootloader void your warranty on this phone.

First you have to unlock your bootloader
Then flash firmware , now you can get your network working, if you want flash twrp recovery and root with SuperSU. Or just flash twrp recovery and flash cm13 ROM.
DON'T USE KINGROOT LIKE ONE CLICK ROOTS , AS THEY WERE WORKING UPTO KITKAT ONLY. SINCE LOLLIPOP YOU HAVE TO UNLOCK BOOT LOADER AND FLASH RECOVERY AND SUPERSU FOR ROOT.READ WHATEVER YOU NEED IN OPO XDA FORUM . IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSS YOUR DATA COPY YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE TO PC AND BACKUP CONTACTS ETC TO YOUR EMAIL ID, THEN YOU WILL NEVER LOSS ANYTHING. ME TOO AFRAID OF ROOTING BUT I ROOTED 6 DEVICES IN PAST 8 MONTHS , NEVER LOOSE MY DATA EVERYTHING. STICK WITH XDA AND.....
WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD.
OK guys, thanks.
I have solved the problem with manudroid19's toolkit, thanks for your help guys.
Off-topic: Do you know what is the error 2 on twrp? i didn't find it on google, i get it when i try to flash gapps on cm13.*i try to do this because not even 1 google apps work and i gave them all the permissions.I deleted cache data etc,rebooted a few times*
Hey guys, I'd like to wipe a phone thoroughly before its sold. The phone is using emui so there is no encrypt option in security settings. Pretty clueless here seems there's no encryption option so any help is appreciated.
thanks in advance guys

I've read that your files are still accessible even after a factory reset unless you encrypt them?

Hi, doing a factory rest is your best option. This will wipe all of your personal data off of the phone, it cannot then later be retrieved by a new owner of the phone.
Just perform a hard factory reset on your device. Then fill the device's internal memory with blank txt files and perform another hard factory reset on it again. This way you can be sure that nobody will be able to recover the data that was stored on your device.
Hi, I have forgot my password for unlocking the phone and now I need help because I dont want to restore it and loosing all the data (pictures and so on). Is there any way, please helpp
I think the only solution is to factory reset from recovery, if you can do that.
SORRY.. i think factory reset is the only way..
also i heard another way which requires twrp to be installed , but i dont recomend it, bcause it caused some serious problems to some ppl..
Do you maybe know if there is any possibility for me to recover the lost photos after?

Unlocking the boot loader to flash TWRP wipes the phone. Factory reset wipes the phone. Bottom line don't forget the password

Yeah sadly with Android 5.0+ you need root to get rid of any lockscreen security. The only way is to factory reset if you want to remove it. But sadly as mentioned rooting would wipe the phone since you have to unlock the bootloader.

it's good if you think about it ... what if a stranger wanted to get your photo's txt and contacts ?
that's the whole point in having the password in the first place
