Hi Guys,
I have a problem with my nexus 4. I wanted to use cyanogenmod instead of the stock rom, so i rooted my device yesterday and flashed the latest stable build of cm (10.1.2).
Everything worked fine, except for the wifi; it won´t turn on. It get´s stuck on the "turning on wifi"-page, wtih the button in off-position and saying "turning on wifi".
I´ve read some threads were people had the same problem, but nothing seems to fix it. I made a factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik, fixed permissions, but in didn´t work on cm 10.1.2.
So i tried a different build, cm 10.1.1 stable, but the problem persisted. I tried the same things I did on the 10.1.2, but it did not help. So I tried using the latest nightly, but that didn´t help either.
I thought i go back to the stock build to fix it, because it still worked after I rooted the device and still had the stock on it, but unfortunately that did not fix it. I made a factory reset, and wiped cache and dalvik again, but it just won´t work.
Long story short, i don´t know what to do now I rooted and flashed several devices before and never had a problem that did persist even nafter i tried multiple buidls of cm and wiping everything everytime; so if anybody has any idea where this problem comes from and how i could fix it that would be really great

Im having a similar problem, i think we have to flash a different radio ?
Still nothing
Flash a different radio? What excactly does that mean? I must admit I have not heard of that :laugh:
By the way, I just unrooted my device and relocked the bootloader, but that didn´t fix the problem either.
Stock CM Kernel? If so, try flashing kernels with prima drivers. If the problem persists, I guess it may be hardware. On another note, do you have bluetooth or GPS on? Try turning those off and try connecting.

I just tried the franco R163 with prima drivers, that did not fix it. But, speaking of the bluetooth, i´ve just noticed that the same problems occurrs with that. I trie to turn it on an it stays at "turning on bluetooth" without actually turning on. Maybe that helps to know what the problem is.
What other kernel with prima drivers would you recommend?
Edit:
I´ve read through a few threads on that bluetooth-issue, which apparently is more common than my wifi issue. I was wondering if my wifi-issue could have something to do with the bluetooth, because other users who have said bluetooth issue found their bluetooth temporarily on after reboot; then after a while the bluethooth issue appeared again.
In my case the bluetooth doesn´t appear to be on, but i was thinking that maybe it is, but the software fails to display that and that that is interfering with my wifi.
Could that be a possibility?
Out of the box my nexus 4 refused to connect to my TPLINK wr941ND router, wifi was set months ago, nexus 7 works as charm same with evo 3d and others. I thought wtf and turned on wifi on broadband modem, it showed up on nexus 4.... And suddenly network from router poped up as well. I switched off wifi on modem and nexus lost wifi from router. At this moment I went for a walk... When I come back done factory reset, reboot the router, no effect. Changed settings from WPA2/QSS to WPA without QSS - no change, then I changed channel from #13 (best in my location, all my neighbours using #1 and #6) to #1 and instantly nexus found network.... So it seems that sumthing is apparently with wifi, when I changed channel back to #13 it drops the connection and says that networtk is out of range. So finally I checked all the channels from 1st to 13th and it works from #1 to #10, 11 till 13 dunt work. Maybe this info will help sumone with simillar problems.
Recently Flashed Semaphore Kernel 1.7.1 on my N4 running October 7 Carbon Nightly and everything was working fine until it disconnected from the WiFi and wouldn't reconnect. I attempted to reconnect by going into Settings and settings wouldn't open until showing a message about settings stopped working. Rebooting the device solves the issue until it disconnects again.
Steps I tried to fix it:
I factory reset and flashed the latest nightly and gApps then reflashed the HellsCore kernel.
Everything worked great until this evening the same issue occurred again, I could not access the WiFi settings after it disconnects from the Wifi even after rebooting this time it still wouldn't connect, a dirty flash of the ROM on stock kernel allows the phone to connect to wifi.
Help?

I've changed my rom thrice from pheonix to omega to revolution rom but still my wifi doesn't turn on, tried reflashing modems and do full wipe still my wifi wont turn on.
Only Pheonix ROM can make my wifi turned on while the other two ROM can not, Can somebody help me? I want omega or revolution because the fingerprint is working there.
Help me please, is there any file I can use and flash it via odin to fix my wifi? if yes please give me some link. Thank you so much any help will be appreciated.
I had the same issue on my G900P with MOAR 7.0. The wifi would turn on, but when i went to turn it off for a bit then turn it back on, the re-enabling would fail. Flashed the stock ROM via Odin, TRWP then a fresh download of MOAR like 5 times. Never got it to work, but it works perfectly on Resurrection Remix. Same baseband, same modem. Weirdest bit is that it worked for about a year with no issues.
Hi. After trying a couple of custom roms, I wanted to go back to a stock rom via Odin. I actually succeeded. The phone boots, and android setup screen comes. But in the "wifi connection" screen, when I touch the button to turn the wifi on, it just refuses to turn on. It goes back to off position. I have tried several different country's stock roms (4.4.2 only, I haven't tried 5.0) and they all ended up the same. I just can not turn wifi on in stock rom. Wifi works in custom roms that I installed using TWRP.
Any idea why this happens?
By the way, I also tried flashing different modems, but the result is the same. I read that turning off the phone and removing the battery helps, however, in my case, it didn't.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: As I have looked into the issue, some people claim that a custom kernel usually solves wifi problems. I haven't tried it yet but I will as soon as I can get my hands on the phone. Also in another post, I have seen a build.prop tweak "ro.securestorage.support=false" which is claimed to have solved the wifi issues. I am writing these to be of help to others that might encounter the same problem. I will update the post after trying these ideas.
EDIT 2: It turns out, when you flash a stock rom, Odin can't actually flash the modem partition. It seems like it does but it actually fails. You have to do it twice.
No Wifi
Hi,
have some trouble with my Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). Since 2 weeks I'm trying to get wifi working. 2 weeks ago I decided to root the phone (everything complete stock Android 5.0.1). At this moment wifi was working well..
I did:
- Flash TWRP with Odin
- Flash magisk 18.1
--> booted phone..
Everything seemed to work well..expect wifi. It wouldn't turn on. When trying to activate the WiFi button by sliding to the right it stays grey and after 10 sec. the slider goes to the right side again.
What I've done:
Downloaded several stock firmwares from sammobile --> no wifi
Flashed serveral custome rom's (lineage 14.1, 15.1), android 5.0 and 4.4 based --> no wifi
Tried differnt kernels --> no wifi
Flashed different bootloaders and modems--> no wifi.
Tried to delete files in /wifi folder suggested here in forum --> no wifi
Tried to modify buil.prob set the security value to false suggested here in forum --> no wifi
I don't think thats a damage on the hardware. It must be a software issue?
Bluetooth and mobile data are working well. GPS and wifi seem to be broken.
After spedning weeks of flashinng, recovering etc.. I am frustrated and don't know what to do.
Any advices?
My wifi is not being enabled with this rom. Does anyone know how to solve?
I had latest stock firmware and everything was working fine except it wasn't getting any updates so I decided to flash Linneage. I followed instructions, made sure to flash the copy-file on both slots etc. Everhything seemed fine untill I left my home and didn't have access to wifi, then I noticed that data didn't want to work. It showed having 4g connection (full strength) but it was so slow that I couldn't even check speed because the homepage barely load. There was a connection but since it was so slow I received timeouts almost everything I tried. I also noticed that bluetooth didn't work. It would connect/disconnect every 3 seconds from my bt headset. This was "fixed" by disable google on my phone. Very strange.
I thought It might have to do with Linneage so I tried Pixel experience. Exact same problem there.
I thought maybe the linneage files I flashed to both slots were bad so I reflashed stock rom. Now I have the same problem with stock rom as well. I eventually used the MSM tool and reflashed the latest stock firmware, locking the bootloader and all that. Still having the same problems. These two problems were non existant before any of this.
I've tried my sim in a different phone, even made sure the apns are the exact same on my working phone and my op6t.
Is there any other way to make sure the phone is completely factory restored other than MSM tool? Now I'm running stock oxygen, no root, locked bootloader etc but the problem persists. What is my next step to try?
