I'm interested in the possibility of using an unlocked international S6 variant on Verizon's network in hopes of obtaining root. Does anyone know if this is possible? I spoke to a verizon rep on the line about this and I was told that "Theoretically, it should work fine. Verizon cannot offer support for non-verizon variants."
Can anyone with some more knowledge on this shed some light on this matter? Can the international model be activated on Verizon and rooted? If so, which S6 international model can be used?

I'm pretty sure the international version doesn't support CDMA, which is used by Verizon for 2G and 3G network. So you won't be able to call or text (data should still work though). The Verizon S6 (G920V) actually comes with a Qualcomm modem to support CDMA, as opposed to Samsung's own Shannon.

Any ideas about the Sprint Variant then? It's been rooted and is CDMA.

The Sprint variant (G920P) should be compatible with Verizon as it comes with the Qualcomm modem.

I am currently using my sprint S6 on the Verizon Network.
Current issues:
PRL needs to be updated because it is preferring to use the sprint network over Verizon. This makes it so that my fastest speeds are 1Mb/s. not to mention sprint network here blows with reception.
If anyone could help me with what PRL would be the correct one to use. Also I haven't flashed the PRL before and I am reluctant to start pressing buttons in the CDMA Dev Tool.
Help would be appreciated.
How could i enable hotspot on my unlocked at&t lg g2 on lollipop with tmobile network
I need help asap I've been going crazy looking for ways
This will give you a tmobile rom which will give you hotspot and wifi calling
It's on the supported BYOD list from Freedompop and is also the same hardware model as the one Boost Mobile sold. I was wondering if anyone here had luck activating the Sprint model on either of those carriers?
Can someone who has the US version confirm if Wifi calling works on T-Mobile? And I'm not sure if hotspot is an issue too, but my wife's current phone is an AT&T unlocked LG V20 and hotspot doesn't work on T-Mobile. So just want to confirm.
Any using the Korean variant on Verizon? I want to get it for the dual screen but I have to have wifi calling.
Verizon likely won't help. It's part of their version of the V50 Edit: Google voice allows wifi calling
