Its basically resetting your phone to basics, so only stuff on the ROM you installed and your SD card will be left

Basically you will be

• Using FASTBOOT on your PC to install Clockwork on your RECOVERY PARTITION
  
• Copying a ROm (zip) onto your SD CARD
  
• Booting into recovery (clockwork)
  
• Installing a ROM
  

The guide linked above is very detailed.

After the Backup-Procedure from the link above, just follow Stage 2 from

http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...and-other-roms/

then Restore according to the Guide from XDA ...

but that's what confuses me:

Stage 2: Unzip/Install the Rom ONE of the files below <-- done

Windows

Get your md5sum utility from: http://www.md5summer.org/md5sum.zip (COMMAND LINE VERSION)

Extract this Zip file contents and put them into your Fastboot directy. <-- now i'm stuck, where's my fastboot directory? 0_o

EDIT: I DID IT! and it all seems ok so far :D
