Thank you for the response! I actually did try odin and set both phones (as they died) back to stock (they were DI18 when we got them). Restarting the phones after this still had a dead radio and the Android errors (specifically Android.acore or something like that) My first thought had been data corruption and figured resetting to stock would fix it.

As for the journaling thing, I hadn't thought of that as I (shamefully) haven't researched what that is, exactly :P Would that cause the type of corruption that would completely break the radio? (Regular, non-phone apps still seemed to work just fine...just anything that accessed the radio or trying to access phone settings kicked up the numerous errors)

I'll definitely do some research into other kernels, as well! It was just odd that it ran perfectly for that short period of time then died.

As further info, when it did boot up after reflashing to stock, it showed "unknown" under the baseband and hardware versions.

I guess what my real question is...if I start flashing our new phones and it should happen again...has anyone had the same issue and is there a fix for it! ^_^

PS--According to the guy at the Sprint Store, they did have a few of the EC05 phones come back after the update....so it may have to do with that particular radio update.

Anyway, thanks for all the feedback! I may just have to reflash and see what happens! (Though I'd like to avoid another $40 replacement charge! :P )
