Well, the AWS market operates on different frequencies than those that the cdma vogue operates on so you can't activate and use the cdma touch/vogue on those networks.
If you want to flash to nfsfan's rom you may have to set your network provisioning up again. If you decide that you want to flash a custom rom like nfsfan's you should never go back to the retailer for tech help without flashing back to stock first. If they see you have a custom rom on it they will most likely tell you that is the problem and tell you that they need to put the stock rom on it for it to work. Or they may refuse to activate it for warranty issues.

Metro has allot of AWS spectrum to check coverage contact Metro or check the Metro website. Once you have your ESN in metro's system you will not need to activate it again.

To check Metro coverage go to http://www.metropcs.com/coverage/ or call 1.888.8metro8. Then yes activate and then flash the custom ROM. After that you will need to set-up MMS/WAP. There are cabs for MMS/WAP and carrier cabs. that you may need to use.
Also check this out for Metro http://www.metropcs.com/metroflash/
