CWM manager is just an apps which you can launch . It will offer you similar options as ClockworkMod recovery. The difference is you run it as an app while CWM recovery you activate it through the 3 hard buttons ( with phone off, vol up+home=power)
Both offer same functions
Added on January 7, 2012, 12:14 pmYour question I don't quite understand ??
You use ODIN on PC to flash back a stock 2.3.5 rom - you will lose root + CWM
You need to use zergrush exploit and the Chainfire kernel file to root and have CWM restored back
When you use CWM to backup your 2.3.5 rooted rom, restoring it back through CWM recovery will give you back exactly 100% your last backup status
Actually is simple, don;t confuse yourself making it so complicate
Maybe I need to rephrase it back.
PC ODIN will not be able to flash 2.3.5 rooted ROM, right? If this is the case, my question previously is invalid.
The correct way to flash a previous rooted 2.3.5 is via CWM Manager only (which requires to be Rooted in the first place). Sorry for the noob questions. But I learn a lot in the past couple of days after reading and doing the rooting. I have never own or learn about Android before.

ClockworkMod Recovery == when u boot up. CWM Manager == the apps inside your apps drawer that will trigerred ClockworkMod Recovery when u want to restore/backup/install rom/wiping data
I have installed CWM Manager.
Is it advisable to install ClockworkMod Recovery too? Can the current Recovery find the Custom/Backup in the SD? I think thats what ClockworkMod does - able to find the backups in the SD, right?
EDIT/UPDATED: OK - I think I know now about both CWM Manager and ClockworkMod Recovery...
