update.zip is used to update a phone. I would take it off the root of your SD for now. You should not need it.
Where are you seeing the update.zip? I assume you are using cwm, but I got off that a wile ago so I don't remember what all exactly it does.

Never mind that.. i thought i seen it in cwm menu. But i dont have it..... i'm thinking about starting to flash roms but dont know how, or any of the benefits yet...im trying to get all the info i can...
I have just created a back up using CWM or nandroid... But an exclamation sign appeared on my battery icon and now i have a sliver like battery with an exclamation point over it!..
And all you did was create a backup?

well yeah..i created a back using CWM.. so this means that i can flash or install roms right?? it takes a while specially when im at work...
Ya your good to go. Just make sure to read the whole OP for the ROM and follow any recommended flashing process if there is one.

The battery doing that is an issue with Dinc2. Dont worry about that, you can send it it for replacement if you want though. I did that with 2 of them. Then one im on now does it but I figured it doesnt hinder the phone so im living with it.
Flash ROMs is a very easy process. Just read the directions in the thread for the ROM you are flashing. All done through clockwork mod. First put the rom zip file on root of your SD card.
1. Boot into Recovery
2. Wipe Data
3. Wipe Dalvik Cache
4. Wipe Battery Stats
5. Install from SD Card
6. Choose zip from SD Card
7. Choose ROM
8. Choose Yes
9. Profit.
On first boot it can take a while so if it looks like it is hanging up dont worry and be patient.
So no need of rom manager??..
ok i was about to download a rom but something came to mind... how do i know if its compatible with my phone??.. i mean i know i am running android version 2.3.3.... and i am seeing a lot of roms that say android 2.3.4 or 2.3.5!!.
like this one ... it says mikrunny v1.01[Sense 3.5] [GB 2.3.5]
does that mean i cannot use it ??
and what are gapps??
Right now your on Android version 2.3.3, Mik runny is Android version 2.3.5. so by installing it your going to a newer version of Android and getting a newer version of htc sense. As long as you use roms From the links above they will be compatible. I spend most of my time on the Mik and everyone there is really helpful. you can find good stuff on xda as well.
As for mikrunny I don't think your going to find a better sense 3.5 ROM. It's what I have been using from release and runs really smooth, and your not likely to find any bugs
"gapps" stands for google apps and is usually needed to be flashed for aosp roms. I myself tend to stick to sense based roms so I don't have much more information on that.
