Have you loaded a bootloader yet? I have a us cellular custom ROM that I made. If you have already unlocked and upgraded your radio then you can just put the ROM on your SD card and flash it onto your phone from there. I have a Tutoril that is newer thatn the one here. Check out the links in my signature, all the directions are there.

The very first thing you should do is download QPST and use it to read the programming off of your phone. - I am following the steps to use QPST at this link.

To read from Phone I need to enter Service Programming Code - Which I enter 000000 and it does not take it. Does anyone know what else I can use.

Do a search for BAFMSL, it will show the SPC/MSC code for pretty much all carriers.

Go back through thread. kinda long now I know. If its after you cook rom look into your "advanced settings" in you phone. should be able to access everything from there.

This worked. I was able to get my code with BAFMSL. My next step is to run nueSPL 2.47 on the phone. from doing some reading my understanding is this unlocks the phone correct? If this is the case then How do I flash the rom and radio's. Do I use nueSPL for this as well? If this was the case then i would have to put the rom and radio on the microSD card?

You said you do your flashing from the bootloader screen..How do I do that?

Wait I found this.. Will this work?

STEP 5 (Alternate)
An alternate method to installing the custom roms after you have the latest radio and boot loader would be to have a micro SD card formatted to the fat32 file system. at this point put the nbh file on the card in its root directory (in no folders) and name the file TITAIMG.nbh. once this is done hold the power button and camera button while using the stylus to softreset the phone, this will bring it into boot loader mode and will update the rom. Not all sd cards seem to be compatible with this method, so if you have issues just use the method above. If you do a search for a program called pocketrar, you can download the roms directly to your phone and try updating them without having to connect to your pc. otherwise, you will need to active sync the file over, and as we know if you have vista that can be a major issue. though for some reason the RUU folder method can still seem to see the phone usually.

Thanks
