So you make a nandroid backup.
Then you decide to full-root your phone and install OMJ's latest rom 1.6r which has the new OTA included and the latest Radio 2.05.00.06.10.
Then, you decide you don't like it, so you do a nandroid restore.
You will be back at a stock sprint rom, not rooted, Radio 1.32.651.1, every sound customized, 4 email accounts, 10 apps you installed, and some crazy wallpaper w/ a fat purple cat.
Basically, it will revert back to whatever was on the backup. Keep in mind that it does not reverse the affects of the latest OTA that prevent you from rooting the phone. If someone did the OTA recently, restoring a nandroid backup won't undo that.

In response to your last paragraph, that is cause Nandroid requires root access correct? And the latest Sprint update disables from booting into Nandroid. That's Eek the cat btw!! He's hilarious!! Miss the good ole saturday morning cartoons. Thanks for you response. I'm on OMJ 1.4 and curious about trying a ROM with the latest sprint updates but very scared with all the issues I see people having. Knowing I can restore my ROM to the way I have it now makes me feel a little braver.
