I'll give this a run now and let you know how it goes - THANK YOU!!

Update: I just completed all the steps as you said. Re-unlocked the phone and flashed the custom ROM - now i'm stuck at the Verizon screen. This is becoming a troubling process. I'll do some searching on the forums and try to get back out of this and restart the process.

Update 2: Beyond annoyed at this point. I've flashed back to the stock ROM twice following the instructions above to a T. I've re-unlocked the phone three times now, have flashed it using three different custom ROMS and everyone of them get's my phone stuck on the Verizon Bootscreen or the custom rom's boot screen. Any ideas??
