aguaron,

If your customizations did not run after you installed Rob's rom, then chances are likely that your extended rom was blank in the first place. If you previosly installed a 3rd party ROM, like the ones from ppcgeeks, some of them wipe the extended rom.

Rob's roms for sprint/verizon already have the carrier customizations built in, so unless you are installing his "generic" version, you won't need the sprint cabs that were originally in your extended rom

After a hard reset, you initialize the screen and set the time, then typically a window pops up saying something like, "will begin customizing your phone in 3, 2, 1 seconds". After this, the phone loads all your carrier customizations that a) make it work seamlessly with the network - good; b) impose limits on what you can do with the phone or fill up the memory with useless junk - bad.
Although not universal, when a rom is released for a specific carrier, usually the rom-cooker (Rob in this case) has built-in the good customizations and left out the bad ones. Allowing customizations to run on top of what's already in the rom causes problems, so we interrupt them by soft-resetting (stylus in hole) at the right time.
I don't use this rom and offered comments simply to keep things moving along. If Rob does things differently now, then I'm sorry for misleading you and defer to any comments he has.
