Think I found a fix/shortcut

I've been having the same problem with my HTC Incredible (short battery life). I thought it might be that I have poor 3g service inside my office and wondered if there was a way to switch force 1x only.

I did a little search and found that I needed to access the CDMA options, however there is not an easy way to access the settings (at least not one I could find).

However I do have the Any Cut app, which allows you to make shorctuts to various settings that are not easilly accessible.

To make a shorcut on your home screen for the CDMA options, first download Any Cut (it's free) the go to Add to Home>Shortcut>Any Cut>Activity>CDMA Options>OK (for me there were two CDMA options and the one I wanted was first, the other is CDMA call options). Once you have the shortcut you'll want to click it and go to Mode of operation>1x only.

Now you should have forced 1x only and can switch back by selecting hybrid or EVDO-Only (3G).

Hope this helps!
