Hello boom24 and welcome to FTE.

If the OD light is flashing, then you have an error code. You need to get that code and post it here.

As for the new transmission, you said it has the "same issues". The same as what? The original or the 2nd transmission? The original "blew up".

As for the original vibration, if it is still present it sounds like it wasn't the transmission causing the issue.

You may double check all your electrical connections. When I replaced the transmission in my 04 Silverado I had, I bent one of the pins on one connector and it caused it to not shift at all. The slipping issue you are having sounds weird, but I would at least start with that. Also the trans isn't over or underfilled is it?
