All credits go to @baadnewz for pointing this out. You should also go and check his ROM at the international forum, which has Sprint support http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2279766.
This was a very easy solution to a very annoying problem. If you like me use the phone internationally with a GSM network, you should know that you only get a GSM sign for data.
I have tried a million things to fix that, but the best I came up with was to replace the GSM icons with 3G icons in SystemUI.apk. That had a downside cause you would only get one icon 3G for example.

I am proud to announce that you can get all the international icons .:victory:

Go to /system/customize/AAC with a file explorer like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer and edit the default.xml
Note: The system should be mounted as RW.
Find this line <item type="integer" name="sku_id">10</item>

Change the number to 42 and save
Thank reboot and enjoy your international icons
Again many thanks to @baadnewz for his help:good:

It works!
You are genius, thanks!
Should use root explorer to edit that file, and use rb editor (editor of root explorer)

it's reverting to the first time after restart.
I even edit the Mount R/W on ES File Explorer, and still it's reverting after restart.

use the root explorer and copy the files to sd card where u can see it..
then use any text editor to edit the default.xml and copy it back to you internal sd...
then u have to copy it to the root .... /system/customize/AAC and paste it there

The information in this thread was intended to be used by people with a Sprint HTC One(m7). Every manufacturer/carrier has its own system customization options, so unless you've got an HTC device, you are probably not going to find any help here.

Please research your device in the LG G2 forum:

I attempted this on Lollipop, but it did nothing.

Even if I edit it somewhere else and copy it back to the original location, the file gets overwritten with the original value anyways.

    Awesome!

    For anybody having trouble finding it, it's towards the bottom of the file. Around 15 lines up from the last line.
