My buddy on Verizon had all sorts of issues on his S5 when they tried to enable some fancy LTE features like HD voice and video over network calling (or something like that). He wasn't able to disable it himself for some reason, so he went to the store and they got him rolling again. They were having issues with these features so they just disabled them for now until there's a fix, but it's a known problem.

Don't know if it's related, but it might be something similar.

Data crapped out yesterday for a few minutes for me. Was...odd. Then it came back.

Probably monkeying with things in the backend. Did she rebooty it?
