[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 on 4.2.2 XXUDMH6 WiFi Won't Turn On - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I recently updated my Galaxy S4 I9505 to Android 4.2.2 XXUDMH6 using OTA method and from that moment on I can't enable the WiFi (neither using the toggle in the notifications area, nor from Settings menu). Unlike other users complaining about WiFi issues, the WiFi hotspot and the Bluetooth are working just fine.
I've also tried flashing a previous version of a stock ROM using ODIN (a different thread says there's no downgrade?) or flashing a different Modem, but the WiFi issues are still persisting.
Does any of you guys know how will I be able to fix it? Thanks.

Adam kernel works only with root rom, this is about the stock rom without root.

So where do I get this 'adam kernel' from ??
Actually I'd like to stick with just normal stock rom (but with root preferably ) so maybe 'UN-rooting' my phone may be best bet.. but once again not sure WHICH rom I should use (or where to get it from either)

do you have a stock rom, are you root?
WIFI is kernel controlled , if you are root and have a custom recovery and have a custom rom you could try a different kernel ....
If in stock, flash again stock rom , maybe something went wrong during OTA
WIFI
My wifi was also off Until I found roms and fix from XDA
Now GT-I9505 is working great

Thank you for your time.
I don't actually have any idea about flashing or updating. All I know is that my S4 was okay until my nephew updated it to Kitkat. First I noticed that the mobile data is not working. I ignored it because I always use WIFI, then I also noticed my bluetooth isn't working as well. And recently the WIFI gave up too.
My nephew tried what he could like rooting, flashing kernel I think, modem wifi fix and custom ROM but nothing resolved the problems.
When I press mobile data, it turns green but there's no signal indicator,but if I put on another sim from another carrier (I'm in the Philippines by the way) mobile data turns on as I see signal on the upper right part of the screen.
But no matter what sim card or what carrier I'm on, the WIFI and bluetooth do not turn on. It also shows bluetooth and IP address unavailable.
Do you think this can still be fixed or is a hardware issue?
Thank you.

That's exactly what I'm downloading right now. I'm sorry I don't know what towelroot is. I like the S5 ROM, can I put it back after this procedure?
I'll let you know if it works.
Thank you so much!

Yes you can , but you have to start all over..root , custom recovery and then flash custom rom , towelroot is used to get root with out tripping knox warranty bit....but if you are going to flash a custom rom the bit is going to be tripped anyway if it was not already.
This is just depressing.
I downloaded the file twice but when I'm already unzipping it it says folder is empty. I tried to download it on my tablet as well but it always fails.
I don't know what else to try. If only I can just go back to jelly bean.
Thank you for your time anyway. Thanks a lot.

I am currently doing what you suggested but it's not moving anymore. I have been waiting for almost an hour now.
Here's what I can see.
It stopped on:
<ID:0/004> system. I'm. ext4
I'm scared to unplug it because my phone might not turn on again but it's not doing anything anymore!
What should I do?

Hi, I was able to complete the firmware update to XXUFNBE but its the same thing, no mobile data, no bluetooth and no wifi.
I put it back to XXUNGH8, same thing. I don't know what to do anymore. Is this a dead end for me?
Hi, I am having the same problem. For some reason I can't type *#1234* in the dialer (I can, but it doesnt do anything). My wifi stopped working a long time ago when I received official OTA to kitkat. I've tried flashing different kernels and roms, but no success. I tried flashing WiFi fix from the other thread, but it didnt work. BT and sound are fine.

[Q] Wifi problem

Hi,
If you can help me fix this I'll pay you.
I have rooted my i9505 using Towelroot.
The stock installed Android version was 4.4.2, the baseband version was XXUGNG8.
I have installed the philz_touch_6.58.0 recovery and tried several ROMs.
All ROMs install without problems but I can never turn on Wifi or it turns off after 10 seconds.
I have tried various kernels, modems and bootloaders.
I would like to be able to try different ROMs but prefer to have a clean 4.4.4 ROM.
If someone can help me solve the Wifi problem I'm willing to pay for it.
If you can contact me on Skype (username: marcselman) I can follow all instructions immediately.
Thanks.
Still nothing
I have now reverted back to stock ROM XXUGNG8. But even now Wifi won't turn on.
My Knox counter has been tripped but I don't care about warranty. Could it be the reason Wifi is not working though?
My offer still stands though. If anyone can add me on Skype and help me fix this I'll pay you.
Marc
The things that tip off wifi is the modem and kernel. Have you search for hlos modem

No data connection on Android 5.x

Hi
I have a problem with my Galaxy S4 i9505 (I9505XXUFNB9). I can't get any data connection when i flash to a rom running Android 5.x. I've tried many different kinds (e.g. Cyanogenmod, Slimrom). There's just an exclamation mark next to the data symbol. Enabling roaming doesn't work, and changing to LTE etc. doesnt either. So i am beginning to suspect that it's a problem related to my phone and Android 5.x. When installing a custom rom i've used the version specific to my phone (jfltexx). There's no problem with the data connection running an Android version below 5.
Thanks in advance.
Did you update your modem?

I figured that could be the issue, and i was previously looking into that but i gave up when i couldn't find a modem that seemed to match my model. Also i was worried if flashing the modem would be irreversible.
Could anyone point me to where i can find the correct modem update?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
If you don't know exactly how it works, then you also just flash one of the latest lollipop firmware versions our here.
OK, this is driving me crazy :S Today i decided to try two more custom 5.x roms before flashing the modem. I tried both the Omega and the Goldeneye custom roms. And now the problem was the WI-FI connection didn't work! I couldn't even enable the WI-FI connection at all. But the data connection worked...
Then i tried flashing several different modems (I9505XXUFNDG, I9505XXUFNB9, and I9505XXUFNC9), including the WI-FI fix from the thread above (NON-HLOS.bin), and none of it solved the WI-FI issue.
For now i've downgraded to the stock Android 4.4.2 rom...

Nexus 4 Wi-Fi problems

Hello,
I recently bought a LG Nexus 4. I hooked it to my home WiFi and noticed some problems.
The problem is that some sites are not getting loaded. Very slow load time.
For example google is loading pretty good but when i try Facebook around 4-5 minutes to load.
But when I am on cell network the internet connection is good.
I factory reset the device and still no fix. I haven't tried other WiFi networks.
Please advice.

It isn't falshed with bootloader nor ROM
Just stock android lastest update.
The modem is the latest version firmware.
I tried it with other Wi-Fi - no success.
Could it be possible that the Wi-Fi module is damaged?

It's an old and well know problem.
Take a look at this tread and flash the fix. It's working in Lollipop too, but you need a custom recovery.

Did your phone come with btu firmware? If not, try flashing the stock rom that came with your phone. If it works with the original firmware, then you know it is a software issue.

I read on another forum that installing cm roms (based on aosp) the WiFi works
no option for attaching image file
