Connect to EVDO only

Hey I have searched all day for this so I am finally gonna break down and start a new thread.

I want to be able to force my data connect to an EVDO signal when the option is present.

There is EVDO service in my area and sometimes I can get my phone to connect to it but more often then not its switches to a higher signal strength 1x signal. I am connecting to the internet on my PC using pdaNet over Wifi if that makes a difference.

Thanks

Re: Connect to EVDO only

hklm\software\oem\phonesettings\hidden mode of operation ....... change the 1 to 0, then softreset

now in your phone menu/option/services you will have the "mode of operation" :Hybrid/EVDO Only/1X only

I been using this hack since the days of the 67...yea i could of typed the "page"..but I used the "...." instead.

I have never done the ##778# method....but now you need the MSL to get in and with the reg edit you are done and now have that option to can change on the fly.

EDIT:I "clicked" on the link you were referring to...now I know what you are talking about....if it makes you feel better..lol.....I will give you a "Thanks" so that you can have a nice day.

ModeOfOperation isn't really something new =/ It's been posted on PPCGeeks and XDA a number of times.

Re: Connect to EVDO only

Changing hidden mode operation to 0 from 1 works. But when you force evdo only you get no calls, texts or emails till you switch it back to hybrid, be carefull, one day I forgot to switch it back and the wife was calling like crazy, needless to say, I only use it when downloading and I set a reminder to change it back.

Re: Connect to EVDO only

Emails work fine (push and pop3), just calling and sms service is disrupted (since they can't/don't go over the DO signal).
