I'm having an issue that when I leave an area that I'm using Wi-Fi, my phone automatically drops to 3G and won't go back to 4G until I flip to Airplane Mode and back. Also, my 4G randomly dips out to EDGE service (1x) and doesn't come back until I go to Airplane Mode as well. Now I know the issue isn't not having 4G because I've tested while my wife is sitting next to me and she'll always have 4G, no issues. Anyone have any suggestions?

Try updating your PRL by dialing *228 then hit 5 to update to the latest roaming list. That took care of it for me.
