It doesn't work that way. The SIM is only for the LTE portion of the phone. You still need to activate the phone with an ESN by contacting Verizon if you want to use their base services (CDMA, 3G).

There will come a day when Verizon is just like any other GSM carrier, but not until LTE is the base service. It's going to take a long time to get to that point.
