Let the Flaming Begin...

Alright folks, I know there's about 2 million posts out there that relate to this question but I need somebody to help me personally.

From what I read, flashing rom is risky and I do not want to brick my phone. I've been lurking for some time and I can barely make sense of what I'm reading, but it looks like missing a step or confusing some numbers could really make me unhappy.

I want to flash to a non-verizon rom. I have a 6800. Attached is the screen with info on my device. I dont know if it is already unlocked. I've read about the Dcd 3.3.4. Is that what I want? Do I have to upgrade my radio? Do I need to unlock my phone? Do I have to do a kitchen? I'm so lost and I apologize for asking the same damn question every body else asks. I just need reassurance that this will work on MY phone, not somebody else's.

Can somebody please take pity and help me do this? "thanks" will be rewarded!

Edit: And please dont just copy links. I dont want links. I've read all the links...or a lot of them anyway. I've read http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=33857 but it has options. I dont want options. I want somebody else with a xv6800 (preferably somebody who updated to vz's last rom, to tell me what I need to do.
