This is what I did to get texts, data, and phone calls working on this ROM, all on Verizon's network.

FOR VERIZON USERS ONLY.

BEFORE FLASHING

1. Using the Root Explorer function on ES File Explorer, copy the following files to your SD card.

/system/etc/apns-conf.xml

EsFileExplorer.apk (For those who don't have a reliable WiFi connection, you can install it off the SD card to skip downloading it from the Play Store.)

2. Boot into TWRP. Make a backup of your current configuration in case something does go wrong.

3. Perform a factory reset. Wipe the Data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache.

4. Prepare to Flash.

WHILE FLASHING THE ROM

1. Select Sprint as the device.

2. Select the Region code XAS.

3. Finish the install.

4. Wipe the cache and Dalvik cache one last time. (Optional)

AFTER FLASHING.

1. Setup the device as you would normally. Once setup is complete, use a WiFi connection to obtain ES File Explorer, or install it using Samsung's file manager. (Be sure to enable Unknown Sources)

2. Enable Root Explorer. Grant superuser access when requested.

3. Navigate to /system.

4. Open your build.prop file in ES File Explorer.

5. Locate these two lines.

Change these values to hltevzw

6. Locate the line telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice, and set the value after the equal sign to 1.

7. Locate the line ro.telephony.default_network, and set the value after the equal sign to 8.

8. Add the following lines to your build.prop file after the ro.telephony.default_network line.

9. Save your changes.

10. Add these two lines to the end of your build.prop file.

11. Save your changes and close build.prop

12. Navigate to your SD card, and copy the apns-conf.xml file over into /system/etc.

13. Reboot.

All of the necessary files are now in place to get phone calls working, and to get data and SMS working.

HOW TO GET 4G WORKING

1. Tap Settings, and then tap Mobile Networks.

2. Tap Access Point Names

3. Tap the Add button at the top right corner.

Enter the following information. If the field is not listed here, Leave It BLANK. DO NOT EDIT THE MCC OR MNC INFO.

Name: Verizon Internet

APN: VZWINTERNET

MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms

Multimedia Message Port: 80

APN Type: default,mms

APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/IPv6

4. Tap the More button, and select Save. This should allow the device to obtain LTE connectivity.

Try that, and report back if it was successful, or unsuccessful. I wish you all the best of luck.

HOW TO GET SMS WORKING

1. Download 4G Switcher or Advanced Signal Status from the play store.

2. Use these apps to access the secret service menu.

Scroll all the way down, and you should see a field titled SMSC.

3. Enter this value into the field: 0791135604590100

4. Press Update. Give it roughly ten minutes to update.

5. Press refresh to verify that it's updated.

6. Attempt to send a text. It will say that it failed, but simply hit the back button, and the sending failed icon in the status bar should disappear, indicating that the message has been sent. (It's a bug.)
