S4 wifi not turning on - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys I was wondering if you can quickly help me. I was happy with S4 but since I was giving it to someone else I decided to flash everything stock 4.4.2 XXUGNE5 modem GNG2. Now wifi does not turn on. Should I flash different modem? Any help is welcomed. KNOX is triggered so flashing custom things is not a problem. Thank you in advance.

[Q] Problem with s4 wifi

I recently restored stock rom on my Samsung galaxy s4 GT-i9505 from cm11. After that, the wifi just will not turn on at all. I will get a notice when i try to turn it on. I cannot upload a screenshot of the notice i get, it says "Security notice Your device's security has blocked an action that is not permitted. No further action is required."
Please help me solve this issue if it is possible. I really hope i have not screwed up my phone :crying: Any form of help will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I got it to work already. i guess i flashed the wrong rom on my phone. i would like to thank @samersh72 's guide and link to stock roms that helped me solve my problem
Would love to know what firmware you used, no matter what I do it does not work, have flashed multiple roms.
I removed knox and it took some of the wifi with it on I9505XXUFNB9, I can reconnect to wireless networks but the passwords wont hold. On newer roms it just doesnt work even without a rooted kernel.
Edit: Got it working too, although cf-root to thank.Phew.

[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.

The things that tip off wifi is the modem and kernel. Have you search for hlos modem

Newbie needs urgent help with flashing and rooting

Hello Everyone,
I have decided to try flashing a custom rom on my samsung galaxy s4 (i9500), since I'm tired of waiting for further updates from Samsung. My phone is stuck on 5.0.1 and for months the most annoying problem that I have is the massive battery drain whenever Wi-Fi is on. So I am seeking help from you guys on how to start this tedious process?
I am newbie and I would like to know what files are needed.
Also, to fellow i9500 users, can you suggest what is the most stable (no battery drain issue) custom rom?
Thank you .

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 don't know but I do know that the 9500 is based on an Exynos processor and the 9505 has a Qualcomm.

Install this APP and add screenshots (IMEI not necessary atm).
I read on another forum that installing cm roms (based on aosp) the WiFi works
no option for attaching image file
