Magento shipping method is depends on shipping address . first load quote shipping address then get shipping method from shipping address and code should like this

 $quoteShippingAddress = $quote->getShippingAddress();
        if(!is_null($quoteShippingAddress->getId()) ) {

 $quoteShippingAddress->collectShippingRates()->save();
     $groupedRates = $quoteShippingAddress->getGroupedAllShippingRates();
            $ratesResult = array();
            foreach ($groupedRates as $carrierCode => $rates ) {
                $carrierName = $carrierCode;
                if (!is_null(Mage::getStoreConfig('carriers/'.$carrierCode.'/title'))) {
                    $carrierName = Mage::getStoreConfig('carriers/'.$carrierCode.'/title');
                }

                foreach ($rates as $rate) {
                    $rateItem = $this->_getAttributes($rate, "quote_shipping_rate");
                    $rateItem['carrierName'] = $carrierName;
                    $ratesResult[] = $rateItem;
                    unset($rateItem);
                }
            }

}

$result is give shipping method list

2.As amasty say,shipping method are enabled from admin.Also you can do this by programmatically:

 $groups=array();
shippimgmethodcode='freeshipping';
$groups[$shippimgmethodcode][fields][active][value]=true;
Mage::getModel('adminhtml/config_data')
    ->setSection('carriers')
    ->setWebsite(null)
    ->setStore($StoreId)
    ->setGroups($groups)
    ->save();

Magento Shipping – Get Shipping Methods via Observer

You can listen to the "sales_quote_save_after" event, then use the quote to get the shipping rates. The following code can be used to get the list of shipping rates.

$quote->getShippingAddress()->getGroupedAllShippingRates();

Magento – OnePage Checkout – Hide Payment method depending on selected shipping method

I've had a similar problem (removing dynamically payment methods) and solved it by extending the _canUseMethod($method) function in Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Payment_Methods. There you can return false for specific payment methods which should not be shown in the payment selection.

Example:

class Company_Module_Block_Methods extends Mage_Checkout_Block_Onepage_Payment_Methods {
    protected function _canUseMethod($method) {
        if ($method != null && $method == 'checkmo') {
            $carriers = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getShippingAddress()->getShippingMethod();
            if ($carriers == 'flatrate_flatrate') {
                return parent::_canUseMethod($method);
            } else {
                return false;
            }
        }

        return parent::_canUseMethod($method);
    }
}

The config XML would look like:

<config>
    <global>
        <blocks>
            <checkout>
                <rewrite>
                    <onepage_payment_methods>Company_Module_Block_Methods</onepage_payment_methods>
                </rewrite>
            </checkout>
        </blocks>
    </global>
</config>

That way I could remove payment methods right before they get shown in the one page checkout.

Hope that helps anyone.
