I'd say learn how to take a logcat and keep asking on here and someone will be able to shed some light on this.

Yea for now u wouldn't give up your mdk bootloader either... OTA to 4.4 and your options go with it. I realize that now your only running tw cuz of this issue but someone on here should be able to help you

My bad I think I was just confusing myself or mixing posts up. I thought you or the other guy in here said they went back to TW.

That's what I thought too, but he said he went back to cm10.2 since this problem only exists on KitKat.

I believe I attached a logcat on page 1 of this thread but I guess nobody really looked at it. I don't know where to go from here, I'm not leaving KitKat!

I know it I love KitKat myself and won't be going back. It's a shame no one took a look at your logcat , I know there are some straight geniuses on here that would be able to figure it out. Maybe try to track one of them down lol

For some reason I never saw this post lol.

Anyways, thought I'd revive this with one last try. I thought the offical KitKat build from Verizon would fix this issue, but of course...NOPE. It's tolerable on TouchWiz because it will automatically reboot within a minute, but on AOSP it requires a battery pull. Definitely missing AOSP :( Last time it happened, WiFi simply stopped responding and when the screen turned off, it forced a reboot.

So, I'm attaching a logcat, dmesg, and last_kmsg...Hopefully someone (ANYONE) can find something helpful. If not, MDK S4 for sale! lol :p

Try going here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2274119 and just ask nicely lol they prefer you use Pastebin for your logs though so for better results I'd do that. Sorry you're still having this problem. I hope one of them can help

    Make sure you clear cache and Dalvic after you flash the correct kernel.

    If this doesn't help... Heck we can try the modem too...
