mikldom,

what happens when you initiate a call? does it error and display "call cant be completed"? or are you able to make a call but its not usable? further do you have full bars on your evo display when the phone is idle?

It actually shows full bars most of the time, and, when I iniate a call.

With EVRC-B initiated, and the display shows full bars, it takes forever and doesn't go anywhere, says dialing, and, eventually I get the busy network tones, and then, can't complete the call.

When you disable EVRC-B, uses the Airave just fine, and you get the tones to tell you you are on the Airave.

If I turn off the Airave, and enable EVRC-B, call goes through fine, but, with 1 bar, it is a crappy connection inside.

I just wish there was an app to iniate little changes that you can flip a "switch" or widget to do certain things, and then turn it back off. Like the apps we had on WinMo to force roam but running the app, it would force the network to roam, and then running it again would take it back to normal... The shortcut on my TP2 that installed was call "roman" not sure why, but that program worked great.
