Do you lose developer preview when you hard reset your phone?

I assumed that when you hard reset the phone (and don't recover from a backup) that you would be no longer under the preview for developers program. Is this correct? I just reset my phone (settings->system->about->reset your phone), didn't use a backup when going through the startup process, and a bit after I started playing with my phone I got a notification saying welcome to Denim. As I have a AT&T 920 I didn't expect this. Am I still in the developers program? Some of the software upgrades I associate with 8.1.1 work (snooze options on reminders, folders).

Firmware revision number is 3051.50009.1425.2001 (if that helps anyone)

You will still have to reinstall the Preview app and reenable it if you want to continue with new Preview updates.

According to this page, Availability in North America - Microsoft - Global that's the FW version for Cyan - sounds like you're getting the false Denim bug that nobody at MS cares to fix.

You are still registered in the PfD program, but since you didn't restore from a backup you'll need to reinstall the app and re-enable it for future (if any) PfD updates.
