Re: EVO Full Root|Recovery|Nand Backup/Restore|Flashing for n00b's Instructions & Vid

Sorry for the noob questions but before I flash I was wondering about a couple of things
1. What are the differences between the recovery modes (Ive seen Amon RA, clockwork mod)- are some built to be used on the phone by itself vs hooking it up to a pc and using adb?
2. When you flash a recovery mode I assume you are replacing the built in recovery mode (which is limited in functionality?) with the modded one?
3. What is the Dalvic cache? Is it important to clear this?
4. If things go wrong or you need to return your phone to sprint can you just hook your phone up to your computer and run the stock rom installer
5. Finally rom manager looks like it can do alot from within android itself- I assuming in order to use it you have to nand unlocked?
thanks in advance
