Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] Trying to put my Samsung galaxy s3 from metro in global mode to use it in india

[devank]

guys , i am a very new member to this site and to android world so bear with me but let me explain my issue...

I have read the complete thread to make s3 a global phone couple of times and i tried atleast 10 times with all the cominations and its not helping....

i have cm 10.1 with todays nightly build and i dont know the steps to make this phone global, i have apn manager and phone info, i can get the option of global under settings but it wont stay there and also i dont get any att singal (i am testing with att) and if i try and look for network manually it says failed...

may be someone can ask me more questions or guide me, i am leaving for india in 4 days and would love to use this phone on 3g and voice with my AIRTEL india number.

thanks all ....
hope to hear from u guys...

do be careful, if im not mistaken india does have cdma coverage and if you connect via metropcs cdma that could incur roaming charges
