What "Preferred Network Mode" should I use when in Europe using a SIM card I purchase there for voice/data? I have an S4. I repeat: I will not be using Verizon Global, but a locally purchased SIM with data.

Why? Because the data plans for Europe are (frankly) ridiculously high priced for the uses I require.

KellJ,
Sounds like you are going to be doing some nice traveling! Let's make sure we get your phone set up correctly so you can have a worry free time away. If you are going to be using a foreign SIM card in your phone, you can set the Preferred Network Mode to Global or LTE/GSM/UMTS. It depends on the coverage where you are at, so one might work a little better than the other. I hope you have a nice time away!
