Assuming that your phone is setup to work on your network, you'll need to look into how to add your CSC and APN settings. This is AT&T firmware, and defaults to the AT&T CSC and APN settings.
Edit : For anyone else with this issue, see further along in this thread. qkster has a link to a phone.apk that works on other bands and solves this issue.

Yes it is unlocked & works on my docomo carrier! The problem I face is while roaming, in my docomo network there is less signal so thats y it gets changed to any other network in roaming! And due to this it is charged alot!

[Q] (noob) Help, tried flashing cm10.1 and now I dont have cell signal or data

So I am a noob but have successfully flashed a few roms onto my phone with no issue. Today I tried to flash cm10.1 and all hell broke loose. I flashed cm10.1 though clockworkmod (now I know that was not correct) and then reset everything and did it though bootrecovery. I also flashed the gaaps and now I do not have data or local cell service. It is showing that I am roaming (like i am out of the country) and asking me if I want the data on and would be charged for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, at this point I have a phone that I cannot use. Thank you in advance

Check out the thread under Original Development. Known issue on that build.

You don't need to flash radios. If you don't want 3G networks - you can use RIL-unlocked radio (not those of AT&T, but those of Rogers) and switch to GSM-only mode. Basic Android setting under "Mobile networks".

[Q] my roaming issue- please tell me what prl you have

I posted in another thread that I cannot roam in Canada. I'm on cm10.1.2. I don't get any cell service at all, nevermind data. I have received 2 text messages after found a factory wipe, but then lost my network again.
I'm wondering if I have an old or corrupt prl file. The version I'm running is 15234. The way to check this is settings--aboutphone--status, then scroll down & check what version you're on. If a few people could check that for me& post here I'd be very thankful.

I'm on 15233

Same here.

Solved my issue. It wasn't my prl. I used the phone info app & changed my radio band to "pcs" which allows my phone to find the local cdma network. It won't get data, but I don't mind that.
Thanks for the help, guys.

verizon s3 metropcs mms fix

this is to fix mms messaging on metropcs flashed verizon galaxy s3. place zip on sdcard, reboot into recovery and flash the zip then reboot. once phone boots up go to settings, more settings, mobile networks, access point names. you will see lte-verizon internet apn click on it to activate apn then reboot. once booted back up send yourself a mms message, it may hang on sending/pending if so turn on airplane mode, then turn off airplane mode and all should be good. this was tested on 4.1.2 with verizon sim in the phone. with non-verizon sim or no sim in had to use apn manager to activate apn
extremely huge thanks to mrctony for being so awesome to mail me a test s3 to develope this fix u rock man
Update: now added 4.3 test zip. The 4.3 zip is for DEODEX ROM ONLY pls post results.

Yeah, it might be something with CM11 then, it doesn't happen all the time but I get it quite often since CM11.
I also get 3g data drops, and I have to restart in order to get it again,I hope CM11 fix that soon.
Thanks for your response.

Hey everyone, I have flashed many Sprint variants to MetroPCS but never a Verizon. Is the process the same? Does the SIM slot need to be unlocked?

Verizon phones usually are factory unlocked but that doesn't matter for flashing it that only matters if u want to put it on metropcs gsm. As for flashing its basically the same but verizon u will prob have to enable hidden menu and when u flash connect to it send spc and set it to nv only then reboot then reconnect write prl and flash as normal
