Confused with root/unroot/stock on BAMF 1.5

So... I did the RUU update and found out that some of my apps wouldn't download again. So, I rooted then installed BAMF Remix (via ROM Manager). With BAMF Remix I noticed that some stock apps were still there, when should have been gone and other pieces were missing. I then went into recovery and flashed the standard BAMF 1.5 (NOT via ROM Manager). This time around certain apps wouldn't open (car app music and visual voicemail was gone). So... I downloaded the Stock version of P015G file (sorry if i have the file name wrong, but you know what I mean). I jumped into HBoot and ran the stock image and now Root is gone. Was it really that easy to remove root?

 

Perfect!! Well that was quite an easy way to unroot... although now my phone is thinking I'm in China?? Quite a distance from Denver. The weather has me right but speedtest and Zillow think i'm in china. Crazy!!
