Help Got Pre-rooted Atrix - Need directions

Hello Guys..


Recently got hold of a pre-rooted atrix from a relative who upgraded his phone.
Due to less time on hand, i just couldnt get all the details about it, and now i am in a fix..

Info:
Its an ATnT Atrix 4g.
System Ver: 4.5.91 / Android: 2.3.4
Current ROM: Alien #2

Its already rooted and bootloader is unlocked as well.
CWM Recovery is installed too, i asked that part specifically.
Has SD card as well.

Already had few contacts saved with one google account.
I created mine and saved few of my own.



Questions:

1) How do i merge contacts from both the accounts, and then delete one a/c?
2) Which is the best s/w or app to backup all the contacts and sms ?
3) How to find out which CWM has been installed ?
4) No idea about fastboot thing being installed or not.. how do i find out ?
What's its exact need/function ?

I apologise well in advance for asking so many questions..
but wherever i tried reading, they seemed to be 2 level ahead of me and i was left all confused. I been lurking here since android bug bit me.. hence posting and asking since now i have my own android device. Just need to get it configured.

Welcome to Android. I will try and answer your questions as best I know how.

1) By merging contacts, I'm assuming your talking about to different gmail acct.'s. Add both gmail. accts. to the Atrix 4G under: Menu> settings> accounts> other accounts. Under each acct., select sync contacts.

2) I use SMS Backup+ to back up all SMS to my Gmail acct. automatically. I use Gmail to back up all my contacts. On the phone go to: contacts> menu> more> settings> contacts storage> google.

Don't know about questions 3 and 4.
