If you really need your RAZR rooted for some reason (I used to need root to run an app but found an alternative), just go to droidrazrroot.com add follow the instructions.

Tell me though, that latest leak, is it the OTA RC?
I'm having trouble with this too and need to find out how to get my root back.
Flash one of the rooted OTA ROMs in the Dev section.

Hi I've rooted my phone and when I try to apply the firmware update it doesn't allow me to do it (goes into CWM boot mode instead). Anyone know what I"m doing wrong? Also once I upgrade the firmware.. can I still root my phone?
Thanks in advance for the help

You cant install ota on a rooted device, only on stock firmware
you need to find the update for cwm and download, then flash it
Latest Chainfire root is supposed to allow OTA updates .
But the OTA update will of course break root and you will need to reroot .

Confirmed, latest CF root let you update. but root and all modifications disappeared include custom kernel if you have one. and some apps might need to be reinstall.
Just updated my phone and lost all modifications and root, setting it back now.

As, mihahn suggested you have to delete Update Center.apk in /system/app/. You need root acces for that.
If you flashed a modified rom it would be rooted, but then again there will be a root access app. So, you might have flashed a stock firmware. It is not rooted AFAIK.
You can unlock your bootloader and root it (keeping the present ROM?).

Or you can simply choose to ignore the update.

No you don't have root anymore but you can simply reroot like explained in my rooting guide and then use a root explorer to delete the .apk. Reboot and enjoy

After playing about and trying various things such as deleting SU and Super SU i know cannot get root working again.
Any ideas on how to restore the root access. Once this is restore i want to update to the lastest cm10 version.

Cheers

Root is in the ROM, so if you flash the latest ROM from recovery, you'll have the binary and apk back anyway.
