[Q] Will factory reset affect my unlock and ROM?

I used to have an Captivate associated with my google account, but I bought a Nexus S and now the Captivate is my mom's phone the only issue is that apparently I can't change the main google account without doing a factory reset.
This is where my question actually starts, will factory reset block the cellphone again?(I unlocked it with the code) I'm in Brazil right now and I'm not sure about where is my unlock code;
My second problem is that I have installed the cognition ROM so that I could finally have flash on my phone which means that I can't get the unlock code again right?
So will factory reset block my cellphone or reverse it back to 2.1? If it reverse back to 2.1 will I be able to get the unlock code?
Thanks for the help and sorry for my english

I could bv be wrong, but i Believe that after a flash you cant go back to stock by hitting that button. what it should do is re-install your latest flashed Rom fresh.

I don't actually want to back to default, just change the google account, would be great if I could change the main account and keep both the Cognition and Unlock

You will keep unlock and the ROM will still be Cog. You will lose all personal data.

Thats exactly what I was expecting thanks!

Sorry for double posting....
I just did the factory reset and well it worked but now instead of change the google account it simply won't ask me anymore for one, it ereased the gmail and market apps, is there anywhere where I can find both this apps?

Now you can restore google account and sync. Gmail will be OK. But as for apps only manually restore. For future install Titanium Backup and use it for apps backup before flashing.

What about the lag fix should i remove that

Wouldn't hurt to do so, just to make sure no problems do happen.
Instead of not disabling it and then having a problem...

If I accidentally uninstalled twlauncher will a reset reinstall the twlauncher

Dont think it will. Sound like you need to flash to stock (saw your post in the other thread). There are dozens of threads about doing that.
All you need is a little research.

Your system apps stay the same, so if you are on a custom Rom that is pre-rooted it will stay rooted. I have done many factory resets. It clears all your data and installed apps. If you uninstall a system app it will not reappear with a factory reset. You will need to find the apk and put it back in your system.

more of a factory wipe than a reset

Returning to Stock

Hello guys
I have a stock Rom dev. Edition with root.
I'm having some issue and wanna go back to stock. I can keep root as once I do like a factory reset, I will root again
I tried the factory rest from settings but it doesbt work. So I was gonna do a wipe from recovery but was worried I would end up without any Rom.
Can some one tell me the way to do it?
Thanks.

you should be able to do a factory reset through recovery without problem. the rom will not be deleted as long as you don't format the sd card/system partition..

T9 not working on stock dialer .136

I used Nut's method of updating to .136 and discovered the stock dialer does not use T9 for contact search anymore. For example if I wish to call Jason, I would type 52766 and a list of my contacts with the name Jason would be shortlisted. This does not happen anymore. Is there a way to fix this other than using a 3rd party dialer?

Did you try a factory reset after update, sometime this clean the phone after update.

Factory reset AFTER update? Oh, I didn't do that. What I did was before flashing .136, I cleaned out all the cache and internal storage then did a factory reset.
Ok how do I do a factory reset in TWRP? I can't find that option.

Factory Reset in Android?

It's working! Just have to go through hours of customising the preferences of my apps again. I'll have to keep testing the phone function after each app install to pinpoint the one that breaks it.

[Q] Deleting all personal data from rooted HTC One?

Hey guys,
I'm selling my rooted HTC One, and I want to make sure all my apps and data are deleted off of it.
The guy I'm selling it to doesn't want it booted, so I don't want to return it to stock.
Is there a simple way for me to securely delete all my data? If I do "reset to factory settings" I understand it will brick it.
Thanks!
Daniel

Deleting a personal data using the factory reset will not brick anything - it only wipes a partitions what is ok.
Returning back to stock (not rooted, locked etc.) is a different story and there are few guides how to do that without bricking..
