[Q] Help. Force Rom 1.1 broken wifi - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

I flashed Force Rom 1.1 on my S4 last night and I have not been able to get the wifi to work all night. I tried reflashing the rom, but that was to no avail. If anyone can send some suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
Note: I did nand, but it some how managed to vanish off my sd card. smh!

Try flashing a different kernel. Kernels control wifi.

So here is what you did and how to fix. You flashed 1.3+ of agats kernel. These builds of the kernel have updates modules. Now you flashed another rom and overwrote the modules, breaking wifi. To fix, flash agats kernel again and it will again fix the modules and bring back wifi. Have a good one.

Please help. GPS and WiFi not working... any ideas?

I'm having a problem. Hopefully someone can help. Im running the Epic Experience ROM with the newest mixup kernel.Ive been running this ROM flawlessly for a few days and now for some reason when I click wifi or gps I don't get the icons at the top and they do not run but 4G will kick in. I tried wiping data and cache and re flashing the ROM and nothing. I also tried re doing the one click root and nothing. Any ideas?
Ok I got my GPS running but WiFi is still not working.

Wifi Error

So after a search here and through Google I haven't been able to get this fixed. I was running CyanogenMod 5.0.8 without problems, but wanted to try out Chromatic 4.5. After flashing Chromatic, WiFi worked for a few hours, but then it just suddenly stopped working. From the "Power Widget" WiFi just shows the grey bar below it like it's turning on/off, but it's not doing anything. When I click it, it does nothing. If I go to Wireless and Networks from the Menu, WiFi shows "Error" up under it. The only possible solution I've found was for the Droid that said to try flashing the ROM using a GoldCard, but that was with the Droid 2.2 update. I gave it a shot anyways with no success. I tried flashing with and without the GoldCard, and in both scenarios I tried flashing with and without a wipe. I restored my CM backup and WiFi is working again, so it's not a hardware problem (which I didn't think it was in the first place). Any help would be greatly appreciated guys and gals.
Bump, just to get back to the top I'd really like to get this straightened out.

Read and search the posts in development. It is simple to fix that error. Your situation is an incompatible rom. Try using CM6.

Incompatible ROM???? It's a ROM using the CM 6 kernel and WiFi worked initially, so that's out the window. Thanks for the input though.
I have had the same problem since 0825 nightlies (nightly prior to CM6 official). Wifi works on the 0825 nightly but EVERYTHING since I get the wifi error. Logcat reports wifi driver failed to load. I have manually tried starting the driver, but still this damn error. I did flash the TMUS Froyo cm6 remix and that rom my wifi worked perfectly. I have flashed both pershoot and dumfuqs kernels--still the error. I manually pushed all things wlan to my mytouch and still nothing. So, there is no doubt that the error lies in the cm roms (or at least where it is mapping the drivers on our phone). Very frustrating. The fact that there are only a few of us having this problem leads me to believe that it is indeed a hardware issue or we have corrupted memory on our phones.
Anyway, I have given up trying to fix it. If you find a way, please post.
But, try flashing the tmus froyo remix AFTER nandroiding your rom and see if wifi continues to work.
I just reverted back to CM 5.0.8 for the time being. I'll probably try the T-Mobile 2.2 for the 32B since I'm sure someone will port it to the 1.2 once they get their hands on it.

[Q] Phone App Missing or GApps Stops

I have been running android on my HD2 all year and have never had any major problems until today.
I am currently running Typhoon CM7 v3.4.1 but I am interested in giving Hyperdroid CM7 another try. Every time I flash it I am either missing the phone app or I get a message about GApps stopping unexpectedly. I have tried both v2.1.0 and v2.0.1, I then tried MIUI.us 1.7.1 and had the same problem, no phone app installed.
I have done task29, re downloading roms, transferring them onto the phone using different methods, tried different versions of CWM (v3.0.0.5 & v3.2.0.0) and I have also tried flashing a WM6.5 rom and then coming back to Android and nothing helps.
I have also tried clean install without restoring data and with restoring data.
I have a backup of my current Typhoon v.3.4.1 and I can restore this and everything works fine.
Does anyone have any other ideas?
I'm not sure what else to try.
thanks.
Edit: If I log into my Google account straight after a fresh install on hyperdroid I get an error about acore stopping. If I don't log in straight away everything works until I log in and then I get an error about gapps framework stopping.
Edit: I managed to downgrade to Typhoon 3.4.0 while keeping user data. Can't successfully flash any other rom. I guess I will have to stick with this rom. Not such a bad thing, just need to get over my flashing addiction.
I have now tried to format the sd card which didn't help
I tried to flash a stock wm6.5 rom with the stock SPL but I couldn't get it to flash using the sd card method.
I tried clk instead of magldr and every time I get the same issue with the gapps framework.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I am guessing that there might be some corrupted data on the nand but I don't know how to check.

[Q] Wifi broken, can't seem to fix it

Hiya,
Using the international i9505 LTE, I tried flashing faux's kernel today, and everything appeared to be working. I also then flashed the xposed framework/some modules. Afterwards, I realised my wifi wasn't working anymore, and disabling the xposed framework didn't help. I also tried flashing the ausdim kernel which didn't work, as well as flashing my modem file, and the apparent wifi fix files multiple times, none of which solved the problem.
I have a nandroid backup, but would rather not restore it atm as it was made a while ago and I don't want to restore all the apps and stuff, so does anyone have any idea how to go about solving this problem?

Basically yesterday I had the same problem, flash after flash didn't help. Can tell you exactly, what I did:
Found factory version of my firmware in my region (SEB Baltics for me, MGA). Then I reinstalled TWRP recovery through ODIN, wiped everything I could, after that flashed stock firmware 2 times consecutively (no reboot in odin, reboot manually after first flash and flash again).
After that everything went fine, and Wi-Fi started working again. MH1 custom ROM right now, going ok.
Googling seems to suggest having to reflash stuff multiple times (I've seen someone say they flashed their stock rom 11 times wtf), and there doesn't seem to be any set procedure that gets the flash to work... Did you also flash multiple times before this last run worked? Perhaps you just got lucky and it worked the last time? (I assume no one tries to bork their wifi and test if their last routine works again for them).
I'm asking mainly because I don't want to go through the hassle of reflashing the entire rom again; would it be correct to say that wifi is just contained in the modem/radio file, and I should try spam flashing that?
No. WiFi drivers are in the kernel, not the modem. If you were going to flash anything, you'd flash a kernel/rom.

I suggest you use titanium backup to bakup your apps, it's not a tough job as you thought. that might be the easiest way, although some data can't be backup.

No, I did flash it 2 times straight away. Flashing correct modem didnt help me, dunno why.

Welp, bluetooth had no problems whatsoever. It was only the wifi, which didn't want to turn on. Now everything is ok.
Well, finally got around to reflashing stock as Gh0stR1pp3r suggested, which worked. Thanks
Nandroid, kernel flashing, and modem flashing all didn't work. No clue why. I flashed the ausdim kernel again and it worked this time around, so it's just weird I guess? :S
And unfortunately I seem to have messed up the titanium backup somehow, I can't seem to find any of the stuff I thought I backed up Oh well

Wifi fix not working

So i was using ambasadi stock deoxed rom with imperium kernel and my wifi stopped working out of the blue.
I had a problem with it before eventually got a modem that was working fine. Tried everything from the posts wifi fix reinstalled different roms modems and kernels etc.. still cant get it running. Before a random the wifi fix didnt work as intended i just kept installing different modems and eventually one worked. No luck this time though.
Any ideas ladies and gents?!
Go back to stock with full wipe and everything.
