 You can use luna-send to change these settings from the command line.  I run this bash (not sh) script from cron to change to roamonly whenever my phone is connected to my access point because my carrier's signal is poor where I live and calls are dropped in automatic mode.

 === Creating a "Roam Only" mode===
-By default, the Pre has no "Roam Only" mode. For fringe Sprint service areas, this can be very annoying, as the phone will tend to prefer a weak Sprint signal versus a strong Verizon/Other CDMA signal. We can enable this mode fairly easily.
+This will allow users to add "Roam Only" mode to WebOS 1.3.1 Palm Pre.
