ROM: 3.10.671.1
Radio: 3.42.30
From what I read, I generally understand the concept that I should have Metro PCS flash my phone, which will wipe out Internet, MMS, and GPS. At that point, I would unlock the phone, load custom ROM, and adjust the settings for Internet. Am I correct?
Here are some additional questions:
1) Which Metro PCS plan should I get since I will actually be using data? (even though they say it will be voice and text only)
2) Will I ever get back the GPS functionality?
3) Which custom ROM is suggested?
I appreciate any help, and look forward to your responses.

Ok to answer the first ? Yes you will need a Metro flash and yes it will render all the WAP, MMS, GPS setting unusable. Yes you will need to run the 2.31 unlocker and install a custom ROM and make the correct setting.
As for the plan choose one that has data included and anything else you want/need.
When it comes to ROMs it's all personal taste do some experimenting, but also keep in mind that most are not preconfigured for Metro and will require a carrier cab.
