howdy gang! anther 4.4.2 issues thread, yea!

My Verizon GS3, updated to 4.4.2 about a month ago. Now I have very bad cell reception. 3g/4g does not seem to have changed much, but when inside almost any building, I have no cell service. I have done the *288 several times, and it has not helped. This is really starting to piss me off, as I get no - that is zero- cell signal inside my home, and sometimes one bar at my desk at work. People have to text me to tell me to call them, and I have to walk outside to do that....


Help?!? Anyone know a fix for this? I am not rooted, and have not done a factory reset (yet). One or both of those may be the next step. Only 'mod' to my phone is the Zerolemon 7000mah battery.
