It appears you are trying to avoid paying Verizon to flash the phone for you. I came across this answer on another website that makes sense and something you should consider 

" Suppose you did figure out how to flash it for free; if you then took it to metro (in your case make that Verizon) and they saw it was already flashed, what would happen? Since the only legit way to flash a phone is if they do it, I'm sure they'll say it was an unauthorized flash, could have bugs, etc. and they would just insist you flash it again and pay them anyway!"

I did search for a way for you to do it yourself and was unable to find any information on how to flash from Metro to Verizon.
