Im about to unlock my phone for use with Verizon, and I wanted to double check something since I'll have to wait until later to do it.
I was informed that my ATT LG G2 wouldn't be compatible with a Verizon SIM since it's CDMA, but I searched around and it appears as though this phone supports the CDMA network.
Would it work?

I would like to know
SIM and CDMA are not the same thing. Verizon uses SIM cards with 4G LTE part of their service. If have a phone that's only 3G then that's CDMA and don't have a SIM card. Also Verizon only "allows" Verizon branded phones on their network. Which is not to hard to get around for the 3G CDMA no SIM needed service BUT I am not sure "IF" its "POSSIBLE" or "HOW TO" if you want to use it on Verizons 4G LTE like I do!
I'm going to ask here and in a another forum that has a lot of LG G2 activity.
The D800 model will not work on Verizon's network, as the D800 does not support CDMA. It doesn't matter if it is unlocked, it will only work GSM networks.

Last year in black friday deal I mistakenly bought LG Optimus F3 LS720 Virgin mobile and did not notice is CDMA version. My plan was to unlock it later and use internation GSM SIM while travelling but it is CDMA. So is there any way can I unlock it and use GSM SIM?
Also how to know that your phone is hybrid / Global (support both CDMA & GSM)? If CDMA cell phone conatin SIM slot does it mean it can be unlocked and can be used on GSM network?
Hi i buy one used HTC EVO 3D CDMA(no sim slot), but i use WCDMA/3G or GSM carrier (with SIM card).
Please someone know if:
1 - If buy USB SIM reader in ebay, may i get all information needed from SIM to flash in CDMA ship?
2 - If flash the radio of HTC EVO 3D GSM version in the CDMA version, i can use this in GSM network? or hardware are diferent?
Thanks you
I find this patch for android to enable global CDMA phone to work in GSM network, but who i know if HTC EVO 3D is global phone?
"If you have a Global Phone for CDMA Network and you want correctly use it on GSM Network than you have to edit the build.prop file to fully enable the GSM\UMTS and you have to set APNs to use 3g data"

is the Lg G5 Verizon is unlocked and can be used for any GSM carrier in united states?
Yes.
Yeah this phone is unlocked but I am not able to get 4g or 4G LTE on the phone with H2O Wireless
LG G5 Verizon has 3 network mode
1. Global this mode gives H (HPSA) and calling on H2O wireless
2. LTE/CDMA this gives 4G LTE but on calling it says SIM Card error or no SIM Found
3. LTE/GSM/UMTS - This initially offers 4G but as i start calling it change the Data service to HPSA
Any Solution Guys?
I tried everything but seems like Verizon Lg G5 only support the HPSA for GSM network and do not support 4G LTE for CDMA networks..
I dont know how to change the bands etc on Verizon Lg G5
So I had a boost phone that recently broke. It had a sprint sim card. My mom got a new phone and gave me her S6 SM-g920a. I had to go online to get it unlocked. Upon unlocking it and it not working I called att. They told me it wasn't compatible. Ok.. So then I read on xda if you root it there's a way you can unlock it for my sim. Cool. Problem is my computer fried the other week. No oden no flashing nothing. My questions - Is it true rooting it will really make the sim compatible? And can you root this phone using no oden or even computer?
Thanks in advance
Not really.
The S6 SM-G920A is an AT&T phone (the A at the end of the model indicates AT&T model) so it uses GSM technology and can work with only a GSM SIM card.
Boost and Sprint are both CDMA networks, this means they use CDMA technology.
So, your phone, previously from AT&T, recognizes only GSM bands. Whereas Boost and Sprint use other bandwidths.
Check your phones and networks bads here and see if they really are compatible: https://www.frequencycheck.com/carriers/at-t-united-states
If their not, then you could use this phone only with GSM networks, such as AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket, MetroPCS
Well that's just disappointing. Thank you very much for your help though
