I reverted back to 1.3 and it worked fine.
I'll probably reinstall 1.4a again tomorrow to see if I can get it to work again.
Working fine on v1.4r which ROM-wise is identical to v1.4a (since the only difference is the radio upgrade is included in the zip)

P.S. When I first rooted my EVO there was a process that I went thru (running a batch file on my pc) to get to the menu that brought up wiping...Do I have to do that every time in order to flash a ROM? OR is there another way to get to that menu with the wipe options?
re:clear Storage-good question, EVERYthing I'm seeing says to do the Factory reset/Dalvic wipes. From what I'm reading you wouldn't clear storage INSTEAD of wiping but you *could* do it along with your wipe in case you're getting that not-so-fresh feeling

As far as recovery goes-it depends on how far you went with the root.
If you just did part one, you could boot into recovery with ROM Mangager or do the manual steps you described.
If you have full root, just load hboot/bootloader and select Recovery, full root allows us to boot into Recovery without a PC.
