Various embodiments include methods implemented on a wireless communication device for reducing interference during a tune-away from a first subscription to a second subscription when a transmitter remains tuned to the first subscription. The methods may include determining whether the first subscription will utilize the transmitter during the tune-away to the second subscription when the transmitter is operating in envelope tracking mode, and switching the transmitter from envelope tracking mode to average power tracking mode during the tune-away in response to determining that the first subscription will utilize the transmitter during the tune-away to the second subscription. The methods may further include determining whether interference of the receiver by the transmitter exceeds a threshold, switching the transmitter to average power tracking mode during the tune-away if the interference exceeds the threshold, and leaving the transmitter in envelope tracking mode if the interference does not exceed the threshold.
