Thank you! I appreciate the insight. There may be service opportunities in the area. I would suggest reviewing in the signal strength on the device by heading into Settings > About Phone > Status > Signal Strength. This will be registered in "dbm's" anything less than -95 dbms ( for example -100dbms) may suggest service concerns.

I have had the EXACT same problem since December. It's only when I am at work and work on the 12th floor. Ironically enough I have a Verizon building right next to mine, you'd think I'd get better service?! I can't receive pic text messages unless I walk outside, I can't send any text without 4-5 attempts and cannot access the internet. I have the spotify app and can only use it offline while at work. Frustrating since I can't stream music from my work internet and it's my lifeline to getting through my day. I have tried all tips in this forum. Verizon, I think you have a bigger problem on your hand with the S4/latest android update. Please fix soon!!
