Found a simple way to change ur "4G" icon to show "4G LTE" instead. All you have to do is edit ur build.prop file which is located in ur system folder. I believe that these icons are already included in the majority of I9505 roms(non AOSP, non GE) that are out there, so you don't have to add these icons to ur device, or do anything else. Just follow the directions in the 3 outlined steps.

1. Please be sure to make a backup of ur original build.prop file, just in case any complications occur, it's always better to be safe than sorry.

2. In ur build.prop file, just edit the ro.product.name line to...

ro.product.name=jfltetmo
for


ro.product.name=jfltevzw
for


ro.product.name=jflteatt
for


3. Ur device must be rebooted for the changes to go into effect.

That's it!!

I found this little tip here...

in google play store download build.prop editor. Search it by this name and tons of them will pop pu download the most downloaded one. the follow the instructions on the first page of this thread. look exactly for the same name. ro.product.name=jfltevzw. In our factory phones it will kltzz something similar to this. change this to jfltevzw etc, to the one you want it

Change status bar icon to Verizon LTE icon

So I've already tried modifying the build.prop file using the recommended method and it does not work. I have a Verizon LG G3 rooted running Cyanogenmod 12 nightlies. The icon just stays the same, I already tried restarting, which it said to do once I changed the build.prop file, but nothing. All I want it the Verizon LTE logo in the status bar, in place of the standard AOSP-Android 5.1.1 stock icon. Any ideas???
