I got a notification for a system update just now. It says (98.72.16.en.us). What is the update? Will i lose anything like root access if i update?
UPDATE: I have found out what the update is, updated, went through a bunch of other stuff but managed to do it, and re-rooted. No further help on the uipdate or root is needed at this time

Use voodoo ota root keeper to back up then temp unroot before the update. After you're done you can restore it. Make sure you're complete stock before attempting to update.

I think someone is reading about rooting for the first time. Do us all a favor and read some forums, everything you are asking is more than adequately discussed.

I wouldn't... It may be the same build, but you never know if there might be some teeny tiny tweaks, and we still don't know if leaks take you off the upgrade path (I've only heard that it MIGHT be possible)...
But I really came here to say BOOM! The wait is (almost) OVER!

Hmm...any word on the bootloader?
From the video on motorola page, they removed the integrated social networking app into individual one. I love the seamless integration. Not a good move by motorola.
will they have world version
Is it safe to assume the update breaks root?
Currently I have an update for 3.6 something but it fails every time...I think because I removed some apps like Madden and other "non-deletable" apps. How do i fix this so I can apply ICS?

I would assume so. Some haven't in the past but since this is such an expansive update, I would expect it to break root. Just my opinion.

You could try a factory reset. If that doesn't work you may have to fastboot. I'm curious about the "3.6" , what did you mean? RAZR doesn't have a 3.6 version number.

The Razr is a very alien device for since it has so much limitations and need a lot of "winging it" in my opinion being a Nexus user and all.
But here's the question. How can I just flash ICS on this Verizon Razr as easy as possible.
Depends. Usually you can just go to settings, and about phone, and then go to check for updates.. That should upgrade you to ics if you are on the stock gingerbread.

as long as ur running stock rom it'll do just fine.. if ur not running stock rom reflash it, and then do wut previous post says settings>about phone> search for updates.. u'll have to re root tho... use matty's 1.7 just did it on mine and works fine..root access and all.
Edit: I just re-read post to make sure i covered everything.. since u have the razrx rom, (th3ory's, i was running too...one word... AWESOME!) flash back to the err.. what was last update...902 i think... just reflash stock rom, and search for OTA of ICS.. it's wut i did..
Alright so you are gonna want to do a search either here on XDA, or a google search and look for the stock RAZR 2.3.6 rom. And follow the instructions to install it and then as I said before go to settings, about phone, and click check for updates. And if that doesn't work tell me and I will give you instructions to install the stock ics manually.

I can assure you that ICS on the Razr display is as sexy as it gets and it's quite nice with Motorola's changes to it. They seem to have left it relatively untouched, but what they did change was for the better in my opinion. If you don't like what they changed, I believe there are quite a few ROMs for a more pure ICS experience, and it will still be quite sexy
What other ROMS r there.. I live the sexyness of the new ICS..just don't like all the bloat..
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
As for using the stock ics, bloat can be disabled, you go to settings/applications /manage applications/all then find the bloat you don't want, select it, uninstall updates, then you will find an option to disable. This will hide the app and disallow it to function, but it will still be in /system/app when an ota dose a file system check. If you're looking for cm9, I'd update to .211 install safe strap 2.0 for razr ics, then check out hashcodes cm9 build for the razr, you'll have to Google for it, it's not on xda. You will have to rsd back to stock before the update will install.

Have you looked at aggression? If she needs all the stock apps I'm working on a 100% stock but tweaked version of the deodexed base for an admin at my school. So if aggression is too stripped down I can let you know when I have that other one done. Also some people need to wipe after updating to jb for it to run right.

I have a rooted Droid Razr Maxx.
Voodoo Safestrap and Super UseSU loaded.
Wanted to freeze uneeded prgrams and tweak system to run quicker.
Also using Rom Toolbox to tweak CPU etc.
Loaded Nova launcher afterwards which I am very happy with.
My question is that Verizon is asking me to update my system now. I am assuming this is the scheduled JB update.
Since I rooted I know it is not going to let me update.
I actually tried to unroot once before and was unsuccessful.
I still show 0/1 and it will not let me do it for some reason.
In any case is it even worth it for me to do so?
Is JB going to give me anything that exciting that I would want to update?
If not i will just stay the way I have everything.
If so I will need to follow up to see if anyone can help me get unrooted so I can update.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Before you update you need to make sure you are 100% stock. Get rid of ss if you have it, unfreeze any apps, if you deleted them then you need to get them back, protect root with voodoo and temp unroot before the update.

Check his twitter (https://twitter.com/bkjolly), it has something to do with droidrzr "kanging" his roms. I for one think this drama is kinda ridiculous, but I'm not gonna take any sides. Hopefully BK finds a way to get his awesome roms back the public though.
