[Q] Unknown SIM source topic

Hello,

I have a Verizon Galaxy Note II (SCH-I605). It is stock running 4.4.2. I left Verizon and have put a GSM sim card from a local rural cellphone provider in my phone. The phone seems to work great. No issues with calls, sms, mms, or data.

I do have a constant notification that says "Phone Activation" "This SIM card is from an unknown source". Is there any way to get that removed or will it stay because it was originally a CDMA phone?

Thanks for the help! You guys are the best!
