The 3g\CDMA manager also were in old firmware (as far, as I remember there were about 3 activities which work with mobile part). And probably since the software allow you to choose the kind of network it will allow to connect to different operators.

well i found some fun stuff, most notably "usb_modeswitch" in system/bin. Using the settings listed in the support_modem_list.conf i ran it and ended up with this:

# usb_modeswitch -v 1410 -p 5030 -P 6000
usb_modeswitch -v 1410 -p 5030 -P 6000

* usb_modeswitch: tool for controlling "flip flop" mode USB devices
* Version 1.0.2 (C) Josua Dietze 2009
* Works with libusb 0.1.12 and probably other versions

but the vzconnectionmanager still won't recognize the usb stick. I am not familiar with Linux and this is my first venture into an android, so i would love any suggestions! thanks again all!

p.s. i'm using a Verizon USB760 3G stick by novatel wireless and logcat gives me

I/VZBManager( 6366): Got main onCreate
I/VZBManager( 6366): NOT a Verizon 3G device

it is so!
