The data in the attribute table will not change when you reproject the geometries.
After reprojection, you have to add new columns with $x and $y values. These will be in the coordiante system at the moment when you add them. You can delete the old columns with coordinates if they are not useful to you anymore.

Sorry, i pressed enter to early. What i mean is, e.g. i have GK : 3472026/ 5895225 and want them to UTM- coordinates :471961 / 5893308. With $x and $ y i just get the lat/long. or am i wrong? thanks for your help !! Commented Apr 1, 2015 at 10:11

You get the coordinates in the CRS that is current at the time of editing. So if you reproject to UTM, you get UTM coordinates.– AndreJCommented Apr 1, 2015 at 10:43
