Given the 5067 kitchen what tweaks are still valid and what isnt. Would it be time to update the original post to let us know what still is valid?

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)

How would this be done on the alltel 6800?

I just did this on my Alltel 6800. I used the keyboard and hit the function lock. Dial ##778 and pushed talk on the touch screen. Choose edit and "000000" and "ok" will unlock it. On the bottom left choose "view info" and select "modem settings". Highlight Slot Cycle Index and tap Menu on the bottom right. Choose edit and change the setting. Make sure you to select menu again and hit "ok". It will ask you if you want to keep the settings (or something like that) and will reset. You're done.
