Well, if you got as far as being rooted and running the Sprint Lovers ROM, then you must have either an older phone, or you got Unrevoked3 / ClockworkMod after they fixed it for the newer EVO's. So you should be OK.
I would still recommend taking a 'last resort' backup, anyway. There's a good guide here:
Good way to backup WiMax RSA keys. Works before Rooting, and on stock OEM Roms. - xda-developers
... about half way down the first post is the 'already rooted' method. I've also copied the resulting file from my sdcard and stored it in several safe places, just in case I ever do brick my phone entirely and something goes wrong with the nandroid restore.
Re you battery woes, don't give up. I just started over with my EVO, after a month of trying all kinds of things, and with a simple, systematic approach am now getting 20+ hours of light to moderate usage.
I'll probably end up documenting my setup, if I can stretch it out to my goal of a reliable 24 hours, with 10% or so left to hibernate with.
