1. I have a custom rom installed already (Juicy 4.2) and I put all of my backed-up files and programs back onto my phone. Now, i've seen people saying that by installing the telus rom, i won't lose my installed data cause it does only a soft reset? I just wanted to validate this point and confirm this is true so that I know I don't have to re-install everything I have on my phone.
2. This question could pose to be an unintelligent question, as the answer might be obvious. Before flashing a new radio onto my phone, do i need to redo the unlocking procedure? Or do i just run RUU and place the radio file in the folder as I did when i installed my ROM?
Thanks again everyone!!

Just to confirm this, I flashed radio just a few days ago...
1.) As has been said before, No data loss. No hard reset, it will look the same as flashing a rom, and it will hit 99% and pause (don't panic, just let it go) but it will continue to flash it and update the radio only. It will boot just like normal and everything will be in tact.
2.) Not a dumb question at all, not everyone understands the way these devices work. But, no you do not have to unlock it, once you unlock it the first time, it's unlocked until you RELOCK it. So unless you re-locked it, you do not have to unlock it again.
