Registry change not sticking? (ForceCellConnection)

[rebthor]

I tried setting HKLM\Services\CMGuardian Flags = 4. The key (and value obviously) didn't exist, so I created it. It didn't seem to work, on a soft reset, any time I go out from the registry, "Sprint" gets overridden by "Phone as Modem."

Then I thought that I'd try the DotFred version by turning off the service, however I don't see a service at all for the Guardian. I do see it running in active tasks and I can kill it, but it restarts on soft-reset. I'd like to "set it and forget it."

Anyone have any ideas on what to try next? I was running custom ROMs, but went back to the latest stock from HTC/Sprint recently. Maybe things have changed in this latest version?
