i9505 know and wifi issue - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got an S4 i9505 and I believe it was running 4.2.2. I rooted it with CF Auto Root and everything was fine,
A few days ago, little one messed around and accidently managed to install 4.3 update. Now wifi cannot be enabled giving an error that "your device security has blocked an action that is not permitted"
Clicked on SuperSU and it said that knox has been found and some applications may not work,,,,,decided to disable it and disabling it was successful.
Even now when I try to turn the wifi on, it doesnt work but dont get the above message anymore.
Any help would be appreciated as it's driving me mad.
Thanks

Anyone? Please make some suggestion.

Hi ,
My first option would be to try the so call wifi fix, read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
select the same wifi fix as the modem you have installed in your phone ( read first , ask there if there is any doubts)
Second option would be to flash stock rom again and root .

[Q]HELP Samsung S4 not starting

Hi guys,
First thanks for all your help in advance.
My mobile yesterday started to give me error "Not registered on the network" every time I tried to do a phone call. After google-it apparently this is a common problem on the Samsung devices and following a tutorial on the link bellow I was able to root my mobile phone without any problem and following the tutorial on idroidspace I was able to try all the solutions as suggested
As a first option they told me to try using ARIZA patch, but when I ran it says that my model is not compatible. As second option they advice me to flash my modem, I have follow all the instructions but didn't work as well, I was still receiving the error when I tried to do a phone call.
Today I was looking to find the stock firmware (ROM) for my Samsung thinking that a reinstallation could work to solve the error, but after I installed the Kernel file using ODIN v3.07 my mobile is now saying "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" message and after that is not showing any image on the screen
I'm trying to turn my mobile using recovery mode but the same message shows up and the mobile is not turning on...I'm only able to turn the mobile on using the download mode...and ODIN is still detecting it
My Mobile is a Samsung S4 GT-I9505 XXUBMEA unlocked to all the networks from UK
Can you guys please help me? I probably have destroyed the phone already and seek for help to late. But can you guys help me?
Thanks

You need to go to http://www.SamMobile.com and download the newest official stock
i9505 Odin flash firmware/rom and flash it.
Here is the firmware you need:
GT-I9505 United Kingdom (EE) 2013 November 4.3 I9505XXUEMJ8 I9505EVREMJ2
This is the latest official stock samsung jellybean 4.3 firmware for your phone.
This is the stock official firmware for your country and for your phone so it's NOT rooted.
You will have to create a new user account at SamMobile.com but it takes only a minute.
Good luck!
I'm downloading it now.
To install it I will need to use ODIN, right? Click on the button PDA and select the right? Just in case and for double checking
Also, do you think this will solve the error with the phone calls? And should I worry about the kernel message on the startup?
Thanks
is it possible to get root and recovery on these roms? no point if cant..............do i need downgrade then root and recovery?
yes. that is possible as that you will change knox warranty void to 0x1 i think.
hi guys,
I have managed to install the suggested firmware and now the mobile is turning on and I have the recovery mode back as well. The only problem is now the Wi-Fi doesn't work and the error is still there everytime that I try to do a phone call.
There is any suggestions? Do you guys think if I use a custom firmware instead of the stock one the problems will go away? Do you guys recommend any firmware for my device?
Open for any suggestions as I really don't know what can I do more...
Thanks
Hi guys,
I was just on the phone with Samsung support and they actually told me to look for an answer in the forums, and I will be surprised how much information can I find out here...
I'm writing a complain at the moment as the phone is not even 6 months old and I really don't know what to do to fix it
Any suggestion from your guys? I'm really out of options at the moment
Thanks,

[Q] Any Solution to Knox and No Wifi

I'm running stock 4.3 on the i9505 unlocked,
Knox is 0.1, so my wifi stops working if I switch the phone off or battery runs out,
Currently using the app "autostart no root" to block Knox at startup,
Wanted to know if there is any solution to fix the wifi issue without using the app,
Tried different modem and wifi fixes that went with them but non worked for me if I switch off and on,
restarts sometimes worked but other times didn't...
om22 said:
1. untick "Auto reboot" in odin
2. flash the stock rom again
3. reboot your phone to download mode again (by holding the power and vol down button for 10 sec)
4. flash the stock rom a second time with auto reboot ticked
This will fix your problem.

I have the same problem. I flashed a new Stock 4.3 today, and when the phone boots up I can not turn wifi on. I get a message about security and the process being blocked.
Tried to flash two time like above, but it will not work. How can I enable wifi again without installing av cusom rom?

Sorry no real fix,
You can root and block Knox completely this will give you wifi,
As I wanted it stock I drop it into a service center who have forwarded it to samsung now,
So long wait

Same here.. & did you flash a stock (unrooted) rom first before handing back to service center.. I thought if it was discovered to be 'rooted' they won't fix it as it voids the warrenty or something

Auto start app from the playstore works but some times doesn't,
Best way is too root and use titanium backup and freeze all Knox entries

but for 'freezing' you need the paid for version & without Wifi how am I suppose to get it off play store anyway. It cost's too much using GPRS on PAYG to download.
Would renaming the files (whatever they are called) & rebooting do something similar ??

If you do a rest does the wifi work on initial setup,
I have a unlocked phone and the German O2 rom would work with wifi,
But after a switch on and off wifi went

I assume you mean a hard reset ??
Didn't try at the time & I've ONLY just managed to get (most of) my apps restored - don't fancy resetting again to find out
I've sent email to Samsung support to see what they come up with..(They MUST know there's a problem with the firmware & they may come up with something)
If not, I might try flashing the ROM again through Odin (as mentioned in a post somewhere - apparently doing it a couple of times MIGHT fix it) - if not I MAY attempt a full Unroot

I faced this problem, when I updated my Knox 0x1 device with Kies (+ CF Autoroot and Triangle Away). After this, I was not able to turn wifi on. My solution was simple, I flashed my device with Odin, CF Autorooted and Triangle Away again, and no problems anymore. Wifi is working and everything else too.

My problem is that I am unable to even TURN IT ON. When I attempt - I get a silver shield pop up, & a 'Security notice' stating - 'your device's security has blocked an action that is not permitted. No further action is required' - App info tells me it 'Knox notification manager'
I've been emailing them..telling them KNOX is preventing me from turning on my WiFi - so far all they suggested is downloading KNOX, then Install & uninstall to fix this notification - but how can I if I don't have WiFi ?? - GPRS on PAYG is WAY too expensive Don't these people think ?!?!
Anyway just recently found out about this Knox 0x1 business & where to find it..(for the other newbies It's on the 'Download ' screen (Volume Down + Power + Home))
But I'm confused... On my phone there are 2 KNOX references
- Am I right in assuming you are referring to the 'KNOX Warrenty Void' being 0x1 & not the 'KNOX Kernel Lock' ??
Also (being a total Noob) I assume you download a suitable 4.3 STOCK rom (say for e.g. sammobiles) to use
Me - having a UK brand free Unlocked phone is currently downloading 'I9505XXUEMK8_I9505BTUEMK5_BTU.zip' from there based on this info I managed to find (Am I downloading the correct one ?? can some1 confirm this please - thanks ??)

& used this Unroot/Unbrick guide to revert back to a 'stock' rom (do you know if KNOX Warrenty changed from 0x1 to 0x0 when you did this ??)
Did your Wifi turn on ok after this ?? or only after you redid CFAutoRoot &/or Triangle away
I'm not to fussed 'going back to stock' JUST in case Samsung suggests I take my phone to one of their Service departments...I just want to get my WiFi to turn on
EDIT: FYI - I took the plunge & reflashed with the rom I mentioned above.. it didn't wipe my phone But the WiFi now works - I can turn it on and off.
I 'CFAutoRooted' & 'Triangle away' but NOT done any actual rooting (i.e host file editing etc) - so now I have a rooted phone...
Only thing is - If I try 'About device' > Software Update' > 'Update' to check - I get the usual 'This has been modified - no update available blah blah blah' message. I guess it's because of the 'About device' > 'Status'> 'Device Status' shows 'Custom'
Is this because my KNOX may still be '0x1' ??

Yes, it's because your Knox is 0x1. And AFAIK, there is no solution yet, to turn it back to 0x0. And I'm glad to hear, that you have your wifi back

Shame really - AFAIK as long as I have 'custom' (&/or Knox at 0x1) this mean Samsung can refuse the Warranty if I have to send it back at any time (which I hope will never happen :fingers-crossed

How did you flash the firmware ?
Was it through OTA, Keis or Odin ??
I had same problem when updating my firmware via Keis v2.6 (see my post above [First & Last paragraphs] or my original post for a more in-depth explanation)
I managed to fix it myself by re-flashing a STOCK rom (got from 'sammobile' - using Odin) OVER the existing firmware (i.e I didn't hard reset it first - when it finished the phone wasn't wiped either) but the WiFi could now be turned on/off...I then 'CFAutoroot' & 'Triangle away' afterwards - checking each stage to make sure WiFi could still turn on/off
So far 'tripp' & myself have had success in fixing the 'Unable to turn on WiFi' using this method.

[Q] WiFi not toggling on

Hi guys,
Sorry for the incoming wall of text but this issue im having is massive and after doing a buttload of research im still no closer to anything.
I have the international Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). So everything started when my phone was running CM 10.2 then i did an OTA update to I believe it was 10.3. My phone would boot and the OS would start but I kept getting an error message saying some android system program wasnt working and basically made it unusable. So i decided to go back to CM10.2. After much trouble, I finally managed to get back to CM10.2 but I decided i was sick and tired with CM and wanted to go back to Samsung Stock firmware. This is where all the trouble began and its been a nightmare so far. I had TWRP 2.6.0.0 flashed too. I downloaded the TGY-I9505ZHUEMK2-20131122112513.zip file from samsung-updates and moved it onto my phone and wanted to install the .zip from TWRP. I kept getting an error message so I installed it through ODIN instead. Ok, so it worked from there and all was fine and dandy until I couldnt get the wifi to turn on, as in, it wouldnt even toggle on not that it wasnt connecting but that it physically wouldnt turn on. I figured I should do an OTA update incase it was a software problem. Alas, I got the error message saying that I cant because my phone was modified. Once again, I reinstalled the firmware through ODIN 1.85 and this time I didnt root it but i still got the same error message. I then used Triangle Away to try to reset the flash counter incase that would help. No matter how many times i did, the counter would always stay at 7. So after hours of research I stumbled upon an article about the infamous KNOX flag implemented in 4.3 and decided to see if I had triggered it. So I checked under download mode but I couldnt see anything relating to it but I did see 0x30. I forget what it was for. In the end I found this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444671 ) and downloaded the PIT file and the pre rooted firmware linked in that thread and installed them and all went smoothly. The WiFi still wont turn on but triangle away was able to reset the flash counter to 0 this time. Now when I attempt to turn on the WiFi i get a notification saying 'The device has detected an application attempting unpermitted actions and has stopped loading. To protect your device, it is recommended you reboot'. I tried rebooting but that didnt help. I tried removing the battery and putting it back but that didnt work either. I tried holding down on the notification and clearing cache and then closing the app but that didnt help. The application in question is called : SEandroid (version 1.0). When I scroll to the bottom of the permissions list I did see something interesting that could have something to do with this. One of the permissions was labeled Qualcomm WiFi p2p.

[Q] Wifi lost; Unique problem maybe.

Anyways as my title says, i don't have wifi. I had first rooted my phone, but then I unrooted my phone by flashing some unrooted os on the samsung which caused two problems. My wifi and mobile data didn't work at all, but after I took it to a repair shop they fixed the mobile data and got it working again and rooted my phone but not the wifi part. According to the person that tried to fix my phone, the current android os, 4.3 - jellybean, that i flashed via odin is preventing the wifi from working. I don't really know whats wrong with the phone but can anyone help me? Also by baseband version is 1337UCUFNJ4 and the build number is JSS15.1337UCUEMK2. Should i try to find a ROM that matches my baseband version and flash it via odin? Thank you in advance!
P.S. This is my first thread, so please tell me if i violated any rules.

im having the same problem and i think we both have knox stupid security back on the phone that's blocking the wlan to start from bad permission or encryption
so personally yeah i will install back the original firmware (before 4.3) from factory reset (or via odin if i have to force it) then im gonna re-root the phone
having back permission ill remove knox (probly with titanium) lock and box bs from base firmware and probly remove root right
then im guessing ill have my internet back now will i go full rom again or basic function thats a good question
so many freaking remote exploit lately
ill let you know if that fix it
I also just found this

seems that clicking auto reboot might be the cause
so would i install the I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 file following that method or would i have to find another firmware/rom/(i don't know what to call this) unrooted

Cannot get pass the startup screen

Hi not good with eglish please forgive, I have a new galaxy prime that has a strange issue, when I get the the welcome screen I am able to get past into the first startup but then I cannot get passed the wifi one, and whenever try to do so the next button is grayed out and I try to switch to wifi but it switches it back off again. I backed out and reformatted now I get com.andriod.phone. has stopped and still nothing I cannot use my new phone, can someone help me walkthrough what I need to do or what's wrong with it?
I tried re format and nothing is working same problem.

If reflashing your stock firmware does not fix it and it is not caused by something you should return it for a replacment, it sounds like a problem with either the wifi driver or hardware and that is why your phone is unable to switch it on.
An internet connection is required to ensure your phone can be activated and also to make sure it has no attached google account (i.e stolen)
Try flashing the latest stock ROM with KIES or Odin, if its not fixed then a Samsung repair centre could also help

Yeah I cannot get a new one since this one was given to me a while back and it was fine. Now though I rooted it stupidly and unbircked it now it's got this problem
aww well
EDIT I just tried kies3 and got an unknown error while it was syncing..this might be bad, and going crazy now.

Telling me there is an error and not telling me what the error said isn't going to make fixing it any quicker?
Try finding the original firmware on sammobile.com and flash it with Odin. If you get any errors, tell them here so we have something to fish with
Maybe going back to the original stock ROM and then updating through OTA's before re-rooting would work.
Remember I need to know what the error said.
Edit; Also, try with different sim cards with data plans, it doesnt need wifi to go through activation, just an active internet connection
