can i use a Verizon rooted Galaxy S5 on any network?

can I use it rooted Verizon Galaxy s5 on any carrier? If not which carrier am I able to use it with after rooting it? I am looking for a prepaid network that this model will work on after rooting it.
Thank you, Cassie

You shouldn't need to root to change carriers, Verizon is unlocked. I think the problem is in the MMS**, the last time I read, it hasn't been solved. But other than that, it should work on any GSM carrier. There may have been a fix, or a work-around, but since I don't have Verizon, and I no longer track info on it. I can't say. But do a search for it here and XDA forums. Wish you luck...

** It was the HTC One M8 that had that problem. So I don't know if that is true with all. Why not buy a Pay-as-you-go card from AT&T or TMO and see if it works? Simple and would only cost you a few bucks to verify it works or not.
