Force EV-DO/1X, quicker ring response

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I would put these in the tips and tricks section, but that thread is going to get long and these two questions are already far too common, so here's a thread with a quick answer that will be easily SEARCHABLE (hint, hint!).

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).

Also on this page is your preferred operation mode. The Default is Automatic, which is the best available mode (EV that will roll back to 1X when EV is unavailable). There are times when you might be in a fringe area and your mode may cycle frequently and this can seriously drain your battery. Setting this to HDR will force EV-DO only if you demand an EV-DO connection. Changing this setting to CDMA Only will force the phone to ignore an EV-DO tower and maintain only a 1xRTT connection.

Hope this helps you all out!

wow truelight, that looks very cool, i'm going to call and get my MSL and set this I think, I noticed the delay from my old cell phone in the time it takes when someone calls me and was wondering what caused it!

(I sometime do helpdesk type support from home, and have our ACD route calls to the cell, but had my callers hanging up because of the ring delay)

Great! I was looking for that SCI info. I've missed so many calls cause of it. Does that affect incoming messages also?

does anyone have the reg hack to make ring volume for Touch louder?

Funny, but true, my ringer is so loud on high it scares the crap out of people sometimes.

yes it scares me sometime also i just remember reading it somewhere here did the reg tweak for it. i am doing a bit of testing to see if there is a difference when i tweaked it in comparison to a OEM phone.

hmmm... ok so i emailed sprint and they gave me my MSL through email... but isn't it supposed to be 6 digits? she gave me a 5 digit number. am i missing something?

EDIT: nvm... it is 6 digits... i just added 1-9 to the end (which didn't work), and then 1-9 to the beginning.... and found that she didn't type the 2 haha

PS EDIT: i applied the SCI tweak... and this is the best tweak/hack for the Vogue so far! great find guys!
