When your provider does not offer 3g there is no way u can use umts mode bcos a 3g activated similar is a pre requisite!

Could you share a TUT bro?
Cant seem to find one anywhere (google + xda) :/
using andys rom.
Here u go guys its a very simple method ..
I have tested this on aircel and airtel but do not know about other providers and many rumors are saying trick in airtel is no more working..at present I'm using aircel and getting average speed of 430kb/sec using idm while tethering ..occasionally goes higher but never stays there ..
Points to be noted:
1)it is neccessary to have 3g coverage in your area.
2)it is adviced to keep balance below 10rs to avoid problems.
Steps :-
1)activate 2g plan ,like I have a 98 Buck plan for a month..
2)get the settings installed, for aircel apn is aircelgprs.PR
3)activate 3g .
4)now connect to internet using 2g!
5) u will get 'e' symbol on top..
6) now go to setting n select network type and select 2g/3g preferred ..
I use 3g only and haven't been charged till now ..
7) after a few seconds the 'e' symbol will change to' h' ie hsdpa ..
8) enjoy high speed internet..
***
For changing network to 2g /3g preferred, we have the network selection mode option in miks 6.5.8 ..if u r not using dis rom just untick the" use 2g only" option.
Or get the app named 'network'

You'd have to throw in a CDMA sim or just take out your GSM sim and try that way.

Try taking out the GSM sim, restart, then check to see if it will allow.

But as far as u know the Verizon galaxy s4 comes sim unlocked, since my cousin bring me one from the USA but my problem was how ti force 2g (gsm) use instead of 3g to save battery life, as this option is not available in the menu like the international galaxy s4

I would hardly core that as an source. Additionally, it directly contradicts your earlier assertion.
Check the actual model numbers that Samsung has put forth... there is no such animal as the SGH-I545.

Hey guys...
So, the Verizon S4 is the model named SCH-I545 and it comes with a sim slot, right? Besides, it comes Internationally Unlocked, so it can be used on GSM networks around the world, correct?
Just one more question, does it work on the 850MHz Band for 3G?
I'm thinking on buying one also! Thanks!
I brought the vzw s4 back to india.. but its not working with either vodafone or airtel GSM.
After rooting and installing apn manager and titanium pro I was able to get the data working but that too only 3g.
But the voice n sms is still not working.
I too am lookiblng for a solution but didnt find any, inspite of this being a world phone.

Same issue in India
I am having the same issue. The phone picks up only data signal and not voice or SMS. I have a Note2 purchased from Verizon and it works perfect. I have rooted and was able to install an I9505 ROM Wamma Lite. It picked up the gsm signal for a moment and same issue occured. Can aI9505 modem be iinstalled using Odin which will make the gsm modem primary and CDMA secondary and allow gsm use for voice and SMS. Please help.

Yes, it will work on 850
Straight from Sammy.
"Frequencies and Data Type:
LTE: Bands 4/13
CDMA 1x/EVDO Rev.A: 800/1900MHz
HSPA+/UMTS: 850/900/1900/2100MHz
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900MHz"
I am using my i545 in both CDMA and GSM networks. Didn't try HDSPA, but EVDO Rev.A and even Rev.B, and GSM with EDGE - working properly without problems. Switching between networks - is in the Settings. My phone is connected to two different operators at the same time - to CDMA and GSM.

You need to manually add the APNs for the network, just installing the app isn't enough.

Ask the carrier what APN settings you need to get voice and SMS to work.
Thanks everyone, but we do not need APNs for working of voice or sms!
There was other way round! I got success!

Does Verizon Note 2 works for Airtel in India?
I am planning to get one! Kindly share us the procedure!
Many thanks in advance!
I don't understand why in a lot of 4.4.2 roms my SIM card is not supported. In fact every time I turn on my droid DNA it says that the SIM card is not verizon and the phone line doesn't work(only 3g works). But in the threads of all these roms there is GSM supported. How can I resolve it? Which roms doen't have this problem?

I left the original setting(so GSM/WCDMA auto).
same issue here
I have the same problem and I have tried just about everything.
I'm using my DNA for at&t gsm. It is always saying non Verizon SIM and I can't make calls at all.
I'm to the end of my rope maybe we can figure something out if we work together.
It helps to edit the build prop but it still doesn't get rid of the problem entirely
Do you have any ideas.?
