Need Program to Toggle 1x/Hybrid

I get much better battery life if I set my phone to 1x only (since I'm in a marginal signal area).

On my Verizon Touch Pro, I can change between 1x and hybrid in phone->menu->options->services->mode of operation->get settings as long as this is set first
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting to 0

As you can see, it's a bit of a pain to change it back and forth. The change does take place immediately though (no reset or anything needed, it's just instantaneous).

After some digging around, I might be getting close.

I searched the registry for hybrid and it came up in
HKLM/System/OEM_State/RSSI

If the UI is set to 1x, the entries in there are set as follows:
CSAF = 2
Hybrid_Ind = 0
SysType = 2

If the UI is set to Hybrid, the entries in there are set as follows:
CSAF = 4
Hybrid_Ind = 1
SysType = 3

BUT, if I just edit those entries in the registry, nothing happens.

So, either there are more registry entries or making the change in the UI starts/stops a service.


I'd absolutely love a tool that would allow me to toggle between 1x only and hybrid by just running the exe.

There's got to be an easy way to do this.

Any help is appreciated.
