You can't restore backed up data, because if you do, the factory reset was useless.

I didn't lose my root after the reset. So you should be good

ICS does allow some battery saving features stock that GB did not..such as homekey lights -> disable...( you know where they are right? ), i never use them...Turn Sync off when you don't care to receive notifications...SetCpu profiles work great for me....lower cpu max to around 800 mhz when screen is off...but to really get the best battery life, go extended ;\...i just ordered a 3600 mah, going to be huge but worth it hopefully.
