If you wipe via backup you will still be on modaco rom. If you go RUU you will be bone stock, you can root, flash recovery, and wipe via recovery then you can flash, if you want a completely fresh start. Why are you partitioning? Are you going to A2SD2 or leaving it?

Make sure you backup before partitioning.

I havent gone down that path since I had my phone.. I just hard reset before a flash sometimes and reinstall my apps.. thought that was starting over..hehe

dont mean to jack your thread but I figured it was related
If you flash original RUU you are just like when you got it out of the box. The recovery image will be gone. You will have to re-root and flash the recovery image.

You don't have to hard reset before flashing but some people like to.
