when browsing the internet or watching sprint tv, my connection switches from EVDO icon to 3G, and it is so much slower and does not stream the video good at all. so i was wondering if i could somehow set my phone to only allow EVDO. its just allways bugged me. i have the krzr, btw.

I think when in indicates 3G it means you have dropped to 1xRTT data flow, which is noticeably slower than EVDO. Data cards permit you to limit the connection to EVDO, but I don't think the phones do.

Depends on the phone... You can hit ##EVDO# and it will let you change it on most.. But be warned changing it to EVDO only on a phone will cause you to miss phone calls and texts.

When i put ##DATA#, and under EVDO, i have the following settings under edit:
1. DDTM
(on / off)
2. Mode Pref
(CDMA, HDR, or Auto)
3. Hybrid Pref
(on/off)
which settings do i use to only allow EVDO, i'll just have to remember to turn it off when im done using EVDO, but is it a combo of all those? or just one? thanks for any help

since CDMA is 1xRTT only,and auto is default (both) ,thus I would suppose HDR is EVDO only.Dont know why youd do this,as the only time it goes to rtt if the EVDO is offline,thus at least with 1x itll be connected somehow.
