What the? Sorry don't mean to be rude. This tutorial How to flash a Vogue to cricket with GPS. So to answer your question in the order above.
1) You don't need cricket for a custom ROM cricket is a CDMA service provider
2) If you flashed your phone over to cricket your VZW setting will be lost as for your account nothing would happen.
3) Yes I would follow the link in step 2 to unlock the device find the custom ROM you want and flash it. A few notes on ROMS some are carrier specific and some are generic.

So to some it all up this tutorial is for folks who are wanting to flash a device to the "cricket network" these setting are for cricket. If you are just wanting to flash a new custom ROM and have a different service provider follow the link for the unlocker and find a custom ROM of your liking. The ROMS linked in this tutorial are cricket carrier specific and will only work with cricket.

If I can be of further help feel free to PM and I'll try to help you the best I can.

Ok so this is my first time flashing any device in my entire life, i have read and done all of the steps you provided but got stuck on the part where i download your rom and place it in my mcsd card and rename the file, and insert it into the device, and then put it to bootloader, nothing happens!!! Did i miss something??
