I think this is a problem for people who live in fringe EVDO areas.... From what ive seen, the phone normally seeks the the faster of the the 1x and EV signals, not necessarily the best or strongest. Whenever you try to place a call it will connect to the airrave and show you 1x on your phone. I suspect people with this problem also have issues with battery life because of the constant toggling between a weak EV signal and the 1x airave signal. My solution was setting the phone to 1x mode only at home, which has given me perfect 1x signal and no battery issues. Ive also have a mortscript which lets me toggle between (1x) - (Hybrid (1x/EV)) mode that makes the process simplier when you want to switch back to allow EVDO. my 2 cents
