Hmm, I only messed with Amon Ra a little but never seen an option in CWM to back up "ext" other than the SD-EXT which I assumed was the partition of the SD when you had apps installed (never needed b/c I never installed any apps on my SD)

I kinda thought the same thing. Let me know of you find out that is not the case. I guess now that both are backing it up I assume they are also rewriting it everytime you do a restore and therefore would be a good idea to have a backup of it now like you said below. I saw something the other day about some ppl freaking out over being able to get their "keys" for 4G which were supposed to be specific to each handset... wonder what this is now too?

sounds like a reasonable assumption to me

Hope that sheds some light.

That sounds pretty cool... guess maybe it's time to give Amon RA another run
Thanks IKS!
