How to Remove Root from Android Device. Here is a guide on how to Uroot Android or remove root permissions and remove SuperUser unlocking.
Obtaining root permissions on Android, or having a rooted mobile phone, undoubtedly has its advantages: you can install custom ROMs, have new and additional features available to those already existing in a normal Android smartphone. For example, improve battery life, install a new framework and much more.
Of course, there are also disadvantages which are: making the smartphone more vulnerable and exposing it to malicious and dangerous apps. But most importantly adisabling root permissions will void the product warranty especially if you need to take the device for service to repair or sell it.
So if you have rooted by unlocking the bootloader of the mobile device and you have installed the new Android operating system, I recommend that you remove the root permissions and remove the unlock with the Unroot procedure.

Unrooting via OTA Update
The system OTA (acronym for “over the air”) is used to update a smartphone or tablet via the Internet without having to connect it to the PC via USB. By going to the phone settings you accept the installation of the available updates and that's it.
Most devices that allow OTA updates on rooted devices, accepting and installing the update usually leads to unlocking the device. The advice is to uninstall the Superuser access management tool after the OTA update is complete. If you do not receive the update notification, it is likely that your device does not support updates on modified OEM software, in which case you can use the other methods recommended above.
