Root [Verizon] 100% backed up?

Hmm. This is all unfamiliar to what I am used to seeing with recovery made backups. I have never heard of the Online Nandroid Backup tool from the Store you mentioned.

Is it within that tool that you "disable" Safestrap?

Edit - Did you happen to have typed in the name of the Android Image backup 072514 folder during the process? I have no idea where that name would have otherwise come from.

No, it has nothing to do with that tool. Safestrap gets disabled if you choose to boot off the stock rom and not one of the rom slots.

Huh??? I have only ever used the stock ROM, and I've used Safestrap twice to make a nandroid. I have no interest in the ROM slots, so have never done anything with them. So I am running on the stock ROM, just with Safestrap enabled. This isn't making sense to me.
 
If u get some time please watch the video I sent earlier. That explains the whole enabling/disabling stuff with Safestrap.

Just to be a bit clearer I am booting off my stock ROM not any of the other ROM slots which to my limited knowledge will cause Safestrap to come up as disabled. It's when you boot to recovery and select one of the other ROM (1-4) that then enables Safestrap. What I did was what the video explains to do: backup my Stock ROM and then restore it to ROM slot 1, however I don't boot off ROM slot 1, I boot off the stock ROM. Hope this makes more sense. Again I too am really not interested in custom roms. I'm just using Safestrap to have an image backup.

I looked at the video, but its pretty lengthy, so I haven't had time to watch the whole thing. I believe the reason one would do as you did would be to experiment with tweaks and changes to the stock ROM. I am running off the stock ROM in its stock location. I've not worked with the other options.
