3.Under Mode of operation select CDMA only from the drop-down menu.

To access CDMA services and change their settings

1.On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All Settings.

2.On the Personal tab, tap Phone > CDMA Services tab.

3.Select the service you want to use, then tap Get Settings.
