I'm doing my FmTxd right now
It doesn't hurt to go back and do it again

First uninstall FM-fake and then do it. Otherwise you'll get the error said "Unable to ...blah"
maxximuscool, please specify in your post what files you are talking about because if taken in general this would be WRONG. It could cause unneeded aggravation.

All application settings and additional files like icons stay when updating. These will be wiped with a re-flash though.

If however you went and changed something that was a system file including things like Kernel-Power and changes made to OEM binaries like FMTXD, they will be overwritten by the upgrade and will need to be changed back again....

For me this was the easiest Maemo upgrade that I have ever experienced since OS2007. All customizations and applications were left intact and I only had to replace custom binaries and modules like /usr/sbin/fmtxd and reinstall kernel-power-flasher.

It took about 25 minutes from start to finish including the mods mentioned above.
