Update:
=====
I got everything working. I was able to downgrade the phone back to Qwest 2.13 w/ 1.47 radio (had to use the microSD method to downgrade the radio). Once there, the internet started working. Grabbed the missing EPST info (ie: my HA Shared Secret and AA Shared Secret for my M.IP profile). And then was able to upgrade completely to DCD Qwest 3.0.1 via:
1) Grab EPST info (all of it ... needed to use MSL)
2) Installed Olipro 2.40
3) Installed Sprint 3.35 ROM (DID NOT ALLOW CUSTOMIZATIONS!!!!!)
4) Installed DCD Qwest 3.0.1
Everything is working now (GPS, Internet/Data, Send/Receive phone calls and text, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.)
If this ordeal helps anyone else, then it was worth it
