Before you delete one of these collections you need to answer the following
question. Are the camera roll and the photo stream two separate sets of
photos, or are they two different ways of looking at the same set of
photos? I don't know what the answer is for your phone. Despite what Chad
has written Flickr only stores one copy of each photo, so if you delete a
photo anywhere in Flickr, it will disappear from both the camera roll and
the photo stream. The same might be true for your phone.
