Help please

Im sorry if these questions have been posted before, i did try and find answers using the search feature, but to no avail :(

Im kind off new here and i get my new Touch Diamond tommorow :D:D ... when i get it i want to be nice and ready to upgrade it to a better custom ROM but i have a few questions before i do so.

1. Does changing ROM, Radio, HardSPL etc... void the warranty ??
2. By changing ROM, Radio and HardSPL will i lose my network connection to orange, because obviously im on contract and dont want to lose any important settings such as 3G settings and any network settings. I just want to ensure i wont lose my network or anything like that by upgrading the ROM etc ...
3. If for whatever reason when im upgrading the ROM etc... something bad happens and it fails or messes up or whatever will i be able to fix the phone ... like restore it back to how it was when i got it out the box ... or will it be messed up forever?

Thanks in adavance for your replies, i hope to contribute to this community alot more over the coming weeks :)

1. Yes

2. No - on my Orange Diamond the correct network settings have been reinstalled automatically on the first boot after each time I've flashed a new ROM.

3. Not sure. As far as I know, the HardSPL is the critical one. If that installs ok (and it probably will) then it's easier to recover from a bad ROM flash.
