I've been preaching that mantra nearly continually for the few months I've been active here... and I get made fun of, but the fact is it has proven to be a solution for MANY folks having problems... which in my book makes it a best practice.
1) Flash SHIPPED (not stock)
2) Wait for phone to finish configuration/booting
3) Flash radio (if you want)
4) Flash custom rom
5) Wait for phone to finish configuration/booting
6) Clear storage (no need to format internal storage unless you want)
7) Wait for phone to finish configuration/booting

Enjoy!
BTW, once you unlock you're good -- flashing to shipped won't re-lock your phone.
