Back to square one....., back off the ground now........
Once the device is unlocked the custom rom won't affect network unlocking. However you should always unlock a device BEFORE you change the ROM.
Sometimes custom ROMS don't support the unlocking process itself, which would mean you would have to go back to stock, unlock the network then re-flash the ROM.
