First off, I take no credit for any work on these roms since I am simply tweaking a few minor things listed below.
Second, I take no responsibility if something happens to your phone during any of these processes.
Third, your phone must already be rooted and radio unlocked in order to use these roms.
Guide for rooting
Guide for unlocking radio
I would also recommend starting with a fresh install of JB
This thread is for all of those Bionic owners who want to use their phone on a gsm network such as StraightTalk (These roms should work for T-mobile, Att, etc. as well, but have not been tested, e.g. apn settings.)
What I Have Done...
(I wish I could remember where I found these build.prop suggestions because I have compiled this list from multiple suggestions that others have noted on various other sites; the same goes for the localprop change.)
In order to use any of these roms follow the developers instructions from the original threads. The only difference is to use the alternate zip files below.
AOKP ROM (Slot 2)

Use this zip modified for GSM networks
Here is a link to the gapps from the original thread as well.

Again, I did not build any of these roms only changing the aforementioned settings to provide better functionality for StraightTalk. All thanks should go to the original devs.
