Thanks Phoenx.
Before your reply, I had managed to implement Helmi's partial SuperCID fix, then I flashed the 1.41 Sprint Radio Rom from the FTP server. A couple notes:
1. Got the phone recognized in QPST by uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, then reconfiguring QPST to look at Port 5, where the device was showing up. (Also had to DL a free hex editor to make the suggested changes).
2. Running the ROMUpgradeUT.exe from the FTP DOES in fact HARD RESET the device. I finished the utility flash with a soft reset, expecting to see all my stuff plus a new radio, but all my stuff was gone. Not a big deal, just a PIA to re-sync everything and install the few programs not already in the ROM. I didn't look at the files in detail, but nothing in the filenames implies "NoID".
3. No obvious improvement in signal strength or power usage. I had to disable the network time sync. (Not sure if that had been enabled in BigJ's ROM or in this radio rom, but it's a power hog.) I'll post more observations when applicable. tmb
