    Default What happens if you a factory reset while on a ROM?

    If you're rooted, ROM'd and have some bloatware in a frozen state via Titanium, what would happen if you did a factory reset? I don't need to do one, and I do have a stock nandroid backup...just wondering.

    i may be wrong but i believe it resets your phone to a factory state. Thats why ROM installation instructions usually say wipe data and cache.
    again i could be wrong

    Does anyone know if having some of your bloatware frozen might cause issues?

    I guess it will make some issues if you are using the stock recovery but if you are using the nandoid backup ir should not effect device.

    A factory reset is not a "factory reset" if you have a ROM installed. You need to SBF or run something like MADERSTOCK.ZIP

    This is exactly what I was thinking would happen. Didn't know if anyone had ever tried it.

    I believe its a good thing vs. deleting them. I have frozen system apps with no problems.
