First thing if you answer Thank You. How to unroot droidx? I am trying to get the new update so I can reroot the phone. Please help. Tried updating to lose root to reroot. Does not work says update unsuccessful.
If you used z4root to root your phone just open the app and there should be a button to unroot.

+1 to spiff (nice to see ur picking things up to help others ) =)
If you google z4root1.3.0.apk this should be the most recent version. If you have trouble finding it, post back and I can attach the file in the thread.

If you open settings--> about phone
What does it say for your system version? Did you allow your phone to download the update, or did you try and pull an update from online? If you can provide some more information, that would be great, and myself or someone else can help you narrow down the problem you are having.
Thanks
System is 2.3.15.mb810. My phone downloaded update and started it up. It failed almost halfway thru. Will a factory reset and wipe get me back to stock. Really hope you can help me.

Have you removed any default programs? Im not sure if just a factory reset would work. Do you have koush's bootstrap installed to make nandroid backups?

Nope haven't removed anything. Rooted mainly to use apps. Only thing I changed was notifications drop down screen. I added little droid guy to it.

I don't have bootstrap.

So I factory reset and update failed halfway thru. The little droid guy is still in my notification screen, so that has to be problem. I used ninja morph to get him on there. It was really simple to do, but no clue on how to change back. Please help.

On the phone, Download z4root from google and install it, then open it and choose Perm Root, then it will install su and the Superuser app.
Hope it helps.
I tried the z4 infact thats was the way I rooted my phone the first time but after the ota update they shut down Z4root's path. I need my root back to tether (no internet at all now!)

Hey guys
I have been rooted with the Apex 1.4.1 rom for some time now. Recently, I read that the droid X will possibly be getting updated to gingerbread. If this is true, will I have to unroot to receive the update?
Thanks in advance!

No you don't have to unroot but you will have to flash back to stock in order to get the update OTA (it will unroot you by updating). You can do so with a nandroid, sbf, or maderstcok. Or you could just update manually when the update is released, assuming that there will be an update soon.

The flash will work for ota as well but it's not really necessary if all you need to do is back out of the webtop mod.
Hi, I'm going to root my brothers dx for him tomorrow, it's running the aforementioned firmware, so what options do I have to root it? Will gingerbreak work?
Thanks.

Seriously, it's stickied man.
You're going to have to SBF him to .340 first and then follow that thread.
I suggest backing up his apps with this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup&feature=search_result
first...but he'll lose all of his app data since he isn't currently rooted and can't use Titanium.
If you're super crafty and patient, maybe you can try using ADB to pull the data for him...and obviously push it back once he's up and running again.
Sorry, I sent this from my phone late last night, I haven't rooted a phone in a while..
I am a noob, what is ADB? I know the term, I just forgot..

Edit: also, if I do the method posted above where I downgrade to froyo, then manually upgrade to gingerbread, will I be rooted once I'm back on gingerbread?

My assumption is he has a new stock X fresh from VZ running 4.5.596... You can sbf back to froyo from an OTA? huh... news to me!
Sbfing is the equivalent of swinging a mighty ban hammer. (in response to the above)
