thanks for replies... im almost home so ill try verizonguys... i was calling *22 because i forgot the ota programming number... thanks

[effortless]

try to call your phone while ur in a call... and if it goes through,you need to enable hdr under the modem option in the hidden menu....

this allows calls to come in over EV network... in 1x you should be fine.

[setite]

[setite]

installed verizon guys fix... no go after hard reset

[setite]

ok hdr was the solution

found it at a thread about quickening the ringer response... posted by fandi1

"To do this, you will need your MSL, which only Sprint (or your provider) can provide you.
Open up the phone app and dial ##778# (PST). You will be asked to enter your MSL. Enter it, and you will be brought into the provisioning of your phone. From the top left, select Modem Settings. On this page, your Slot Cycle Index (SCI) is how often your phone polls the tower for incoming calls, etc.
This value is 1.28 seconds multiplied by 2^value (i.e 0=1.28 secs, 1=2.56secs) with 0 fastest, 7 slowest. The default is 2, but lowering it to 1 hasn't noticeably affected my battery life, and roughly 2.5 second (SCI 1) response time is far more reasonable than roughly 5 seconds (SCI 2)."

i used a setting of "1" after getting my msl from tech-support....
Did a soft boot to be safe then checked it and made sure the setting stayed...

i noticed a very good improvement in response time and ill post back tomorrow on battery difference if there is one at all....
