You have to enter parameters for mobile network, manually. You should find the button “+” or something like that and opet the configuration where you can enter configuration settings for you mobile provider.

Sorry, I didn’t clearly understand at the begining. I had the same problem with another custom ROM. I think that is the bug in the ROM and you cannot do anything about that. I found another custom ROM for LG L5, based on CM 10.2 and it works fine.
