You can backup EFS under cwm6/philz settings menuif you had been non rooted till now, and not done any wipes, they you should be fine. after installing this kernel you will auto root. then install ktool from play store and backup your efs before doing anything else.
should be getprop in one wordinstalling the philz kernel will not change anything in the kernel section as it's a stock kernel. easiest way is to boot into recovery and you will see cwm 6.0.1.5 philz. or use terminal emulator and use the commands
su
get prop
[customkernel.base.PhilZ-cwm6]: [true]
[customkernel.namedisplay]: [PhilZ-cwm6]
You mentioned it yourself, blame Rocket Rom v3 for that. The CWM app came probably with their ROM. Chainfire doesn't allow redistribution of his appjust for feedback sake Phill, with Rocket Rom v3 with your ls7 kernel we get CWM app in app drawer and people said its working well. I was under the impression after initial releases you stopped including it in your kernels.....just confused ....
I include goomanager support. You should give it a try
