Please help.
My Samsung Galaxy S4 is not working properly. It all happened after updating to Kitkat. We did try a lot of things already and I still don't have WIFI, mobile data and bluetooth. The phone also restarts randomly.
It has been rooted. I tried modem wifi fix, I tried custom kernel and custom ROM. It has also been reset to factory. It's an expensive phone and I want to be able to use its features.
If anyone can help please.
Thank you in advance!

I have a problem with the wifi, turn on my wifi, but can not surf, already installed several roms equal in all, I factory reset and installed firmware source and still continues and I have imei, so the problem begin when i installed the ics version 1.7. Does anyone know how to help me?
This is my first time using a custom ROM and I have experienced problems. I used the GingerIceJelly (Kernel) Custom ROM
When I first flashed my android:
its seems to be working perfectly at first. But as I tried the Wifi, I encountered a problem. I was able to connect to a secure Wi-Fi hotspot. But the problem was that it does not transmit data (internet). I have tried to connect to other Wi-Fi connections (with or without security) but still cant transmit data. Other devices that I used to connect to those routers where able to have internet/transmission of data.
After reading the thread again, someone suggested to have it reflashed. So I reflashed it again.
2nd Flashing of same custom rom: (followed the instructions obediently and diligently)
Bluetooth wont work anymore (especifically wont switch on). I have tried switching it on through the notification bar and at the settings but the results were the same. It says "error"
Wi-Fi problem solved but bluetooth seems to have problem now.
Thank you in advance for your help guys!

Thanks for the reply sir.
Well, I decided to reflash for the third time. Bluetooth now working perfectly and was able to send files normally. But the WiFi problem still exists. I tried your solution sir. But still no change. Wi-Fi can still connect but still no transmission of data. Same goes with the other networks I've tried.
Thanks anyway sir.

yes, i already flash stock via odin. I was quite frustrated for having that problem. I decided to flash other custom ROM for now (TD Kernel). Wifi and Bluetooth now working perfectly. :good:

I have this strange issue with my wifi on nexus 4 , for some reason i can only connect to the wifi networks that are remembered by the device, I am unable to search for and connect to any new wifi network. I have tried many roms and kernels but this problem is still since 4.4. The only thing that I haven't tried is a full wipe... if anyone could shed some more light on this problem or have a solution then please help a brother out
what radio do you have installed? have you tried flashing a new radio file?
are your existing remembered APs restored from Titanium Backup or some other apps? if so, perhaps you want to do a fresh restore of your WIFI access points.
HI there,
I am on Omega 13.2 with old bootloader.
So no KNOX.
I am actually very happy with the performance and battery life. Everything is smooth.
That's why I never bothered updating to Kitkat or a newer Omega version.
Problem is:
The last three weeks I have problems with my data connection.
Data works for a while, but suddenly I loose data connection even though the 4G icon is still visible.
Apps like Facebook don't report that there is a problem with the connection. It just keeps loading.
Same with all other apps like stock Browser, Chrome and news apps.
What I have to do then is either restart my device or turn on Airplane Mode and turn it back off.
Then it works again for a while.
If there is no data connection at all, e.g. when I turn off data, all the apps will report that there is no Internet.
But in my case, I have no Internet but the apps keep loading forever.
It is not a problem with my Mobile Carrier.
I have called them and they confirmed that there are no known issues.
My friends have no problem.
My brother, with the same phone but without root and Kitkat has no problems as well.
So it seems that I am the only one.
My plan is...
Since I don't have KNOX.
Run Triangle Away
Install old Stock ROM without KNOX and update it in a regular way, via Kies.
Question: Will KNOX be triggered then?
If not and I have the same problem I will use my warranty so they can check it.
If yes, I will loose my warranty.
Btw, I have already wiped the device, but still same problem
Thx for your replies.
anyone?

No it won't trigger in the way you descriped.
But why don't you try a different custom rom first?

I could try one that still uses an old bootloader...
You have a point there.
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?
