SamsungStratosphere, getting your phone back in working order is important. Let’s work together to see what’s going on and how we can help.  I know it’s been a couple of days but is it still having the issue? Were any recent software updates done on your device? Have you tried our Software Repair Assistant to see if it will assist in the reset? http://www.verizonwireless.com/dam/support/pdf/system_update/galaxy-s4-instructions-sua.pdf

Thank you for your reply. After working with a Verizon technician, it was determined I needed to do the Factory Reset via the Hard Reset and that method worked. All is good now and my phone is working like it's brand new.
