You cannot root without first unlocking the boot loader.

This guy is wrong. Motochopper will root without unlocking the bootloader. Then use bootunlocker from the play store to unlock the bootloader without wiping your data.

Or you can simply unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery, boot in recovery, wipe cache, and then you will boo normally without any data loss.
The secret is to not boot after unlocking without clearing cache.

Just to confirm that motochopper works on stock locked 4.2.2 without wiping data.
As per thread title, I was wondering if performing a factory reset removes root? I do not yet have a custom recovery, and the local stock KitKat OTA update is going out soon. I was considering holding off on the custom recovery and taking the OTA update, but my understanding is that doing so rooted will cause problems so I'm not about to try.
Basically, just how "reset" is the "factory reset" - and do the factory reset options in the Settings>Backup and Reset do the same thing as the Factory Reset from Power+VolDown boot?
root stays
Um, I'm pretty sure you lose root.
Your phone gets reset to factory default, which is no root...
And yes, it's the same as doing it from stock recovery or from the settings
Will a factory reset restore the firmware that was originally on the device or will it just wipe your data? I am currently on 5.3.2.1 and I believe it was on a rootable firmware before (I honestly don't remember which one).

Do you have unlocked bootloader or TWRP? You can backup your data from here.

Hi Guys,
Sorry but I'm noob , i just unlock my bootloader of my lgh-870, install TWRP and magisk and now i would like to make a factory reset but i'm scared.
Is it ok to proceed with a factory reset in the configuration i have now ?
Thanks,
