does anyone know if the z4root from the market is just as effective as going through the manually?
If you read the comments, most people say it works great. I downloaded it in case I need to unroot if I have issues with my phone and I need to return it.

These are the apps I use. I have two wifi apps for some reason but I don't ever use barnacle

hell no. i downloaded the z4root. also downloaded jrummy overclock for the droid x. now it seems i need to create a nandroid back up. so i am working on that now. also trying to figure out if i need to sbf recovery or something of that sort. i am now confused as all hell.
Is your phone functional or is it stuck in a bootloop? You only need to SBF if you phone is stuck on the Motorola M while it is loading.

also what is recovery bootstrap? oh yeah its not stuck now. but when i go into overclocking up to 1.2 ghz my phone slows to an obsolete crawl
That is correct. Sbf will assist you in unbricking your device. You can create a backup in rom manager or in clockwork recovery. D'ld rom manager and flash clockwork recovery. You can now create a backup in rom manager. It that easy. I always rename my backups because I don't want to focused them. You can also get to clockwork recovery with Droid x bootstrapper. Click bootstrap recovery and it will say "success" them you click reboot recovery and it will take you to clockwork recovery. You can create a backup there as well using your volume buttons to scroll, camera button to select, and power button to go back.
