[Q] Wifi not working, not turn on. STOCK ROM - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody.
I have an italian (CSC ITV) I9505. I make an upgrade from kies and after it the WIFI is not working anymore.
I press the button to turn it on and it don't turn on, try but after half second turn back to off.
When I buy it was working. It have only a month of live.
I tried every official firmware, holos fix, but nothing change.
Tried with odin 3.04, 3.07.
Could someone help me. I don't tried anything of not official, maybe I have to send back to samsung.

You need to flash the WiFi fix, what version you using at the moment?

I already flash wifi fix but wifi don't start.
I have flash last pre rooted official
MGA.
There are any options to completely wipe a rom with flash?

Hi,
Did you wipe data,cache and dalvik when you flashed pre-rooted ROM?

I wipe everything that I can wipe with stock recovery

[Q] I think I broke my phone... Gt-I9505

Hi everyone.
For years I've been coming here finding answers to problems that I've had. It seems I'm finally special enough to have to make a new thread.
Phone: S4 Gt-I9505
Carrier: Vodafone New Zealand
I rooted my phone with cf-autoroot and CWM on the stock 4.2.2 version of android. I then went looking for ROMs and found the leaked (didn't know it was at the time) 4.3 version from google. I installed that and whoopee! We got along well for the first two days, but I restarted my phone on day three and that's where the problem started.
Upon reboot, my phone powered onto the Samsung splash screen, but went no further. Confused, I did a factory recovery in CWM and it still didn't go. I reinstalled the rom and it went again fine, until reboot when it hung on the splash screen again. I tried various roms and fixes and just made a mess of my phone.
Long story short, I now have TWRP on my phone with the abyss 1.3.1F kernel installed and no ROM. Is there any step by step process that someone could give me on how to proceed with TWRP and which ROM/kernel to install to get me up and running again? Not fussy on which rom but one with no bloatware would be excellent. I would be eternally grateful! :fingers-crossed:
Thanks!
Download the latest version which is I9505XXUBMGA either Odin or CWM from here, if you flash via Recovery you need to wipe data & factory reset, cache partition and dalvik cache before flashing but you can flash via Odin
I prefer to use Philz Touch recovery than TWRP

Thank you Crauze, Will try now.
EDIT: That rom is going to take ages to download. I'll update when it's done in a few hours.

Hi, you have touched on an issue I am trying to understand.
Do you only need to wipe you data and caches when you used custom recovery to flash a ROM but not when you use Odin on a PC?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
The above answer worked perfectly. Thank you!

[Q] phone stopps every time, modem problem?

I got a problem. I am on Omega V25 all is working fine. Tried to flash later Versions. First the Modem NC9 needed more than one flash.
Any later versions of Omega boots.
But the prozess phone stopps every time.
Now i flashed original Firmware and after it V32. Same problem again.
Is there any way to flash without full wipe?
Edit: Tried new modem
tried Philz and twrp recovery
Rule number one:
Always fully wipe if you got problems after flashing updates/new versions.
You know what to do. Wipe!

Recovery is the newest?? Also install with full wipe
Maybe flash stock ROM and try it again

I flashed stock, same prob.
Now I did full wipe. So it works.
Could it be the wiima theme 2d?
Now I just flashed back my backup.
Don't want to install all again and do all the settings

Accidentally wiped data....T_T

Hi all, so I got this nice S4 i9505 (telstra unlocked).
after a week I thought I'd try install pacman rom.
I installed openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jfltexx.tar
I wiped all caches, system, data, and than the fatal mistake, I wiped the WRONG data...... now I have nothing on my phone.
It wasn't rooted, I've lost everything, I need to get I9505XXUEMJ5 (stock) and flash it back on, and start again.
I tried CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip
than openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jfltexx.tar
right now I have twrp on there, and not much else.
basically, I've wiped the data and now i need to reinstall stock. than start again flashing pacman.
how can I get out of this situation?
I can't find I9505XXUEMJ5 ANYWHERE with a reliable download, the one I've got is 10KB/s and will take 30HOURS to download T_T T_T T_T I need help....
thanks in advance :3
I need my phone T_T it's brand new.
I'm assuming I9505XXUEMJ5 is the right firmware to flash on it, and that I don't need any extra modem or anything to flash?
to flash pacman rom I just need to install copy rom to phone after stock rom is on, reboot into twrp and flash rom??
what about root?
when I try install CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip from TWRP it works, but when I booted into the telstra firmware it said SuperSu crashed straight away.

You can get the telstra rom from sammobile.com (the latest is ND1), but it will probably have the knox bootloader crap on it. As long as you have trwp installed and running, you can install any custom rom from that, root will be done by the custom rom, you don't need to root first and you will find most custom roms will have superuser installed as well.
I have a telstra S4, but I am running Echoe rom v29, when installing it gives you the option to wipe cache and things.

So you cant boot your phone at all? If not you will have to go to telstra or samsung and get them to fix it.
I am wondering if you need a pit file to also flash in odin, you can get a i9505 pit file from this site.
With trwp the latest is 2.7.1.0.

I'm going to try install I9505XXUEND1 through TWRP.
Got from sammobile
From what I read flashing stock should fix the problem.
I dont think you can flash that through recovery, you will have to use odin.

So that means I should be able to install pacman after installing stock?
Yeah I need to use odin. no problem.
Downloading stock rom now, will take an hour with the slow option on sammobile.
The stock rom I downloaded from some random place that took 30hours!!!!!!!!!! didn't work so I hope this stock one works.
I'll let you all know how it goes.
You will have to install the custom recovery again, but after that flash away!

I installed stock rom, it is still stuck at samsung logo...
what can I do???
I'm very poor I can't afford a new phone...... this one is brand new!! T_T
EDIT:
finally got to the second SAMSUNG logo. I think it'll make it through the first boot soon I hope .
How long has it been stuck for, I remember it took over 5 minutes to boot, and even then I had to press the power button for it to finish booting.

Fantastic mate, yep go right ahead. In recovery goto wipe, advanced wipe, only wipe cache, dalvik, data, system.

Are you flashing the black power edition RC1 or a nightly?

All sensors stopped after flash rom

I need some help, I really don't know what to do anymore..
I've installed the optimized cyanogenmod 13 and now my sensors don't work. It works randomly for about 10-20 minutes then stops. The only sensor that works without any problem is the light one..
I don't know what can I do. Can this be from hardware, even working sometimes?
All the sensors are recognized by phone, they just don't work.
I've already jumped into a lot of ROMs and nothing. I've already done a full wipe (system, data, caches, internal) and installed official stock ROM and nothing.
Now I'm on lollipop 9.0 and I can't get this to work even for 10 minutes, but I know that on other rom it will work for about 10 minutes.
What can I do?
Did you install the latest official stock or just any stock rom with Odin?

I don't know if has anything to do, but if you have a s4 with root, can you please verify if in your folder "persist" have anything? It stays right in the root.
Thanks!
Weird that stock didn't fix the issue. You also performed a factory wipe from stock recovery before booting the newly-flashed ROM for the first time?
Sorry, I don't have an s4 with me at the moment. I can check later today.

Do you mean the recovery that comes with stock rom? I never used him. My wipes I always do from TWRP
I really don't know what else I can do. I don't want to change de motherboard :/.. I still think that is from software
You should try wiping with stock recovery.

Install the stock rom again, then turn off phone, power+volume up+home and do a wipe data/cache factory reset? Is this different from the TWRP wipe?
Maybe I can do this wipe via settings on the system?
On lollirom 9.0 I can't get them working even for 10 minutes
Sometimes, a wipe using stock recovery works better than a wipe using a custom recovery.
Flash with Odin and use stock recovery to wipe before booting the stock ROM for the first time.

Not sure what else to try as flashing stock and wiping with stock recovery usually fixes software glitches.

Yes, perfectly. Never had this issues before optimized cyanogenmod 13 :/. That's why I think its from software, but I have no idea what to do anymore..
I am at a loss too. The phone shows the correct imei, baseband, and bootloader?

Yes. The phone is 100% ok, just the sensors not working.. Now even for 10 minutes is working :/, just the light sensor
Anything else I can do? :/
Dont know if a logcat can help, but..
I just started the phone and searched for "gyro"
As you can see, gyro_sensor was not found.. Maybe we got something here?????
--edit--------
Searching now I found that this is something about .idc files, right in /system/usr/idc. I just don't know what file.. @audit13
How about flashing a custom rom that is based on the original stock rom?

also repartition didnt help
all of these roms get me bootlooped, I can only flash CM rom and its fully functional
what to do?
After flashing your official stock rom via odin, go to Recovery and wipe cache and data/factory reset.
