Wifi not working + recognized improperly by computer

I've got the SGS4 and I've run some of the latest updates.
The build is: JSS15J.L720VPUEMK2
The baseband is: L720VPUEMJA
The version is: 4.3
The software version is: L720VPUEMJA
Whenever I try to turn wifi on, it automatically shuts off and I get an error message stating:
"Security Information
The device has detected an application
attempting to perform actions that are not
permitted. These actions have been
blocked"
Now I know that there is a lot of this going around, however, I was hoping to just reload a stock firmware of an earlier version and get rid of this crap for now. However, when I enter download mode, the computer sees the Galaxy S4 as a "MSM8960" in device manager and will not install drives. I've got Samsung Kies, I've installed the USB drivers. Nothing is working.
Anyone have any advice?

I tried a hard reset. Still nothing.
This is absolutely frustrating.

Use this :

It's going to return you to stock MK2
Also flash this through Odin instead of Kies...

[Q] [Help] Phone only boots into download mode no PC recognition

OK, I will try and recap everything that I've done to the phone in he past couple of days. The short is my phone will not go into recovery mode or boot up. When I try, I get a black screen and the LED is a solid blue (blue light of death (LoD))? Anyway, I can boot into download mode just fine which would lead me to just Odin back to stock and start from scratch, HOWEVER, I have tried 3 PC's and the original USB cable straight out of the box (never used) for my Tab 3 and S4. I have tried several other cables as well. Here's the sequence:
- I was on TriForceROM 5.4 MK2
- Flashed Unknonfofce's NAE Modem via Odin
- Flashed Negalite NAE 4.4.2
- Found out I had no phone
- Flashed SlimKat and still had no phone so flashed back to MK2 Modem via Odin
- Phone worked fine and wanted to go back to TW so back to Negalite
- Phone worked fine except USB storage would not work and PC wouldn't recognize it (no MTP no nothing, not even the 3 button menu in About Phone>Storage)
- Flashed stock MK2 Rom from Unknownforce, still no USB and no PC recognition and Modem and Baseband were gone
- Flashed MK2 Modem through Mobile Odin and it booted to download mode
- I held the power button for 10 seconds after it sat for a while and here I am
All installs were clean wipes through CWM 6.0.4.4. I updated all the drivers on every computer to the latest from Samsung's website from 6/24/2014. I tried the battery pull trick. While my phone was on my Qualcomm and it was set to MTP. I am at a loss. Is there a fix to get my PC to read my phone in download mode? Then I can flash stock. No recovery, no bootup, just download mode and can't be recognized by PC. I've searched for 2 days on many forums and no help. Help?!

Bump???

We need your exact model number. (Found under battery) ie. L720 or L720t. If its the t varient than thats your problem. Youve been flashing regular 720 firmware. Need more information to help. The last android version you've updated to would help too. And i mean stock updates. Ie. Did you root/rom directly after buying no updates? If its new (2014) then it should be 4.4.2..

[Q] Odin on laptops without battery

Hi,
I've got a Galaxy S5 g900F which I want to upgrade to 5.0 stock from alliancerom. I've got the zip downloaded, but the only way to update I've found implies running odin. That puts me in doubt wether I could do it or not on my dell laptop, whose battery is dead. I run it plugged in and I don't know if that means it doesn't get enough power into the USBs. I noticed windows explorer can't browse my card and phone memory, as they don't show up in there. Could I update via Odin, if it may just recognize my phone, without getting it bricked?

Well as long as its detecting your phone then it should work just fine .. first try to nandroid backup your phone through PC .. if it went well, then installing something should work too
After installing, if your phone gets stuck at galaxy s5 logo, install again

[i9505] Odin not working Windows 10 x64

So I am trying to install a custom recovery for my i9505, but Odin does not recognize the phone which was put in download mode before. Please help me! Here are some details:
I got proper USB Drivers installed (1.5.55.0), tried even with Kies/smart switch installed
Using Odin 3.09-3.10.7
Different usb-cables
Completly UNROOTED i9505 with STOCK recovery and 80% charge
In device manager the phone does not appear properly. It has two listings:
1. Other Devices\ MSM8960
2. USB-Controller \ Unknown USB Device (Error trying to get device description //translated from German
Windows 10 Home 64bit
Personally I think it should be a problem with Windows 10 but I am not sure...
To the phone itself because it could be hardware-wise broken:
The phone itself is a completly meltdown. Before I tried repairing it the speaker were broken (no sound). The phone ran an official lollipop rom. I think 5.0.1. Then I thought I could just hit a software update to fix maybe some problems. I updated to I9505XXUHOJ2 [5.0.1] DBT
And now the software experience is completly broken. The phone gets a lot of soft-reboots, the booting takes like 5 minutes and yes the phone is factory reseted. BUT HEY THE SPEAKER WORK AGAIN?!
I really dont know what is happening but there can be only 2 solutions:
1. Re-Install stock software via odin and then switch to cm and hope it works
2. or throw this piece of sh*t away because the cr*ppy hardware is brokanus sarus rekt
or is there any other solution? Tell me
Otherwise I would also ask if there is any solution to install cm12.1 or a custom recovery without root and odin access. (thinking of sideloading in recovery or something like this)
Thanks for reading and replying. I am gratefull for everything I hope the best ^.^

Try running Odin in compatibility mode, set for Windows 7.

Windows 10 x64 works fine. I used it myself.
Try all the different usb ports and reinstall the drivers. Use the drivers from here:
http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/view.do?v=T000000117

Hi,
As the addition, make sure Kies isn't running when Odin is executed as it could cause the device being not detected properly in Odin.
PS Note: I used Windows 10 Home x64 too and working fine as it should.
