Main benefits included with this are ability to install special apps and flash custom ROMs, each of which can add extra features and streamline your phone or tablet’s performance.

You're welcome! Thank you for the purchase

Since the device is rooted and you're using a stock ROM I strongly suggest you to use the debranding menu to disable the Sprint apps, so you will also disable the boring hands free activation app.

YYYYYYESSSSSSSS!!!! It worked! I am up and running with my N920P on Verizon (now aka, "Preferred System") with LTE working! There was no need to use the QPST now that I am rooted with stock as it is registering LTE (though the icon says roaming) and download speeds are appropriate for 4G/LTE as such over mobile. Thank you SO MUCH!!!

The SIM is not needed, you can unlock the device without a SIM inserted.
