1I personally use Eddy Pey's DNS Changer app, though reviews on it say it doesn't work with kitkat. – Compro01 Dec 05 '13 at 05:03

boo guess ill have to wait for an update theres a few i saw through google but none are working on kit kat yet and a lot of them only change your wifi dns, no way to do this through a hidden setting or build prop eh? hacked carrier bundle maybe? – Chris McGrath Dec 05 '13 at 05:39

Just to add an up-to-date answer, I wrote an App which changes the DNS of both Wifi and mobile connections also without root. Have a look at PlayStore or Amazon.

I saw the cyanogenmod an KitKat tags on the question, so I suppose you own a rooted device with Android 4.4.
In general there is a good number of apps on the Play Store which are able to change the DNS for mobile connections of pre Android 4.4 devices and one (which I wrote and sell) which changes the DNS on Android 4.4 devices.
If you need the raw commands, here they are (need root):
# ndc resolver flushif <iface>
# ndc resolver flushdefaultif
# ndc resolver setifdns <iface> <dns1> <dns2>
# ndc resolver setdefaultif <iface>
My answer to a similar question is here and contains references to my app.
