Please feel free to comment with anything else you have done using this specific hack and the first post will be modified to reflect so with credit to you... (must pertain to this specific hack though)
first of all you have to do start with a simple registry edit of the below. (you need a registry editor i myself use resco registry editor)
go to
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting
Change the option HiddenModeOperationPage from 1 to 0
Then go to Phone/menu/option/service/and check in the list,
"Mode of Operation" should be at the bottom. You have 3 choices, Hybrid, EVDO, and 1X.
you can change back and fourth as you please and no soft reset is needed, this can be a huge battery saver if you use in the way that i do which is described in the last part of this post after the 1X.
HYBRID: What hybrid consists of is using both EVDO Rev A and 1X speeds. This is the normal settings on the device which give you the EVDO speeds as well as the 1X so you can still make and receive calls.
EVDO: This will force you to be in EVDO all the time. this si useful for if you want to tether without being bothered but thats about it. The reason that the phone feature cannot be used while fully on EVDO is becasue you need to go to 1x for a call to be made or received and your not allowing that.
1X: This is for when all your doing is making calls and sending texts for that day with no web browsing. Sure this can be easily changed as discussed above but some would prefer not to do so. This is the feature i keep my phone on when at work since i dont use the net there. have computer access) this saves alot of battery power and is a very noticeable difference. to get the EVDO speeds again all you have to do is change back to hybrid and your good to go.
I wrote his myself and scrapped it together pretty quick so you guys could let me know if this works for you and such... if yu could reply with the rom that you are running that would be great and this so fasr has only been tested on the Touch Pro
