This app lets you lock 5G/LTE/4G/3G/2G bands on most Samsung phones running the latest One UI software (no root required!):

my understanding is that typically only Samsung's own Field Engineering app will expose and even force the Band in use, often, typically "band IV" or Band II when I have a 3G/HSPA connection (=AWS or PCS band). Is there a way using a rooted phone loaded with a flavor of CM to see that as well? (Either just display the band or even lock on a band. I'm asking if there in an alternative engineering app that would work... if you run CM.
Or is the only solution to return to a stock Samsung/T-mobile Android version if you want expose "Band in use"?

Not sure if this is what you are after, but go into Settings and under Wireless & Networks choose More...then choose Mobile Networks, in there you can choose Network modes and also force to use only 2G networks.
Thanks for the reply. It's not what I meant though, I want to see which band I'm getting service on. For example AWS or PCS band. my Samsung with stock android on the above examples it would say band 4 or band 2.
But I suspect you need stock android from the OEM to keep that ability.

Is there any way to set the network mode to CDMA instead of both CDMA and LTE without root? I live in an area that has horrible 4G service, and great 3G service, but 4G is just strong enough that my phone wants to stay on LTE. Previously, on my Note 2 that was rooted, I'd just use an app, but that's not an option yet.
Why don't you root it?

The Verizon variant can't be rooted yet.
The only ways that I know of to access the hidden menus on the Note 4 require root. Advanced Signal Status app works if you are rooted. I use it to set to CDMA at work because 4G signal is bad and drains battery looking.

Is there any way to change network band to B5(850) without root.
What's the process to be able to lock LTE/5G bands on this phone?
TIA
