Why am I not able to "enable" WiFi on Samsung Galaxy S4 mobile. Model no. SHV-E300S?

Why am I not able to "enable" WiFi on Samsung Galaxy S4 mobile. Model no. SHV-E300S?
Hello Everyone,
I'm facing a very irritating problem with my phone. Allow me to share some background of it so that its clear.
I stay in Mumbai, India. I recently bought a new Samsung Galaxy S4 (Model no. SHV-E300S) while returning from South Korea.
I have been using the phone for a week and it worked fine until a few days ago.
I'm unable to "enable" WiFi on my phone. Whenever I try to turn it on, it gets turned off automatically within a few seconds. Below are the things I tried but none of them seemed to work.
1. Restarted my phone over 10 times. - No success
2. Pulled out the battery while the phone was ON - No success
3. Pressed *#0011# and clicked WiFi in the Menu section and turned off the "Wifi power saving mode" - Worked for 2 days and then again not working
4. Hard Reset my phone - no success
5. I did not try rooting my phone as I'm unable to do so. Tried Kings Root (through Mobile and through PC) and many other applications but rooting failed everytime.
6. Reset the Wifi settings in the Wifi section of settings - No success
7. Kept Wifi on on during sleep as "Never" - no success
The Wifi button doesnt let me wwitch it off, and I'm unable to do anything. Please help me with your expertise if anyone has a solution. Please find the details of my phone below:
Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE
Model no. SHV-E300S
Android version: - 5.0.1
Please help......

Ratish

This is a hardware problem or a problem within the kernel. But you say that you did a hardreset so I think it is a hardware problem. You should bring you phone back to the store and let them fix it

Probably hardware failure. If it was software then it wouldn't work at all. But it worked and suddenly stopped working, so it's hardware.

Galaxy S5 Neo Unauthorised Reset

Hi I have my friends Galaxy S5 Neo and he done a factory reset and its ended up now showing Unauthorised Reset I have reflashed the latest software 6.0.1 with odin3 v3.13 with success but after this its still showing the Unauthorised Reset then I reflashed it with 5.1.1 with success and is still the same showing the Unauthorised Reset when it reboots and looks for the internet to get the gmail or Samsung info but says no internet connection, even though I have added my wireless key into the wifi network setting which showed connected
Do I need the PDA or the CSC firmware version for this phone
really grateful for any advise to get this back up and running for him
many thanks in advance
Once you flashed the firmware via odin did you go to recovery mode and perform a data wipe/factory reset?
guys , I'm at i don't know what the @%#%$ to do. I just bought this phone online and it is for locked . I am having the same issue, I factory reset and everything , but when it goes to connect to wifi or data. It never does it just keeps spinning and spinning never connects. Plz help. The old owner has given me his email and password to get past the FRP but I can not due to the fact I can't get past the connection part
I had this as well. I bought an S5 (not Neo) from eBay with that reported message (which the seller acknowledged up front)
Several fixes were available on YouTube, Google, and the rest. They all supposedly work on the principle of spoofing the phone to get past the lack of a browser, from which you can correct things.
None of those worked for me.
In the end, I had to prepare a USB stick with some recovery sofware on and boot the phone from that, which runs a custom APK to get you back to normal.
I know this is an old thread, but if you want, I'll try and find the information on the custom App on a stick.
PS. You will need a USBOTG cable, to be able to plug in the usb stick (or one with dual ports).

[Q] LG G6 H870 | Turning on WiFi does not work, but "/data/misc/wifi/config" is ok

[Q] LG G6 H870 | Turning on WiFi does not work, but "/data/misc/wifi/config" is ok
After Reboot from TWRP, it was no longer possible to activate WiFi.
The "/data/misc/wifi/config" contains the correct MAC address, Bluetooth works.
Neither a factory reset nor the installation of another ROM solved the problem.
What can disable WiFi permanently regardless of the ROM and correct configuration file?
How do I reactivate WiFi?
Details:
- was on "Fulmics ROM 4.2" with TWRP from Eliminater74
- flashed Magisk-v18.0.zip, wiped Dalvic and cache
- after Reboot the WiFi switch can no longer be activated
- Factory reset does not help
- flashed "Oreo 8 OPEN EU 20C ROM" with factory reset, which hasn't helped either
- checked "/data/misc/wifi/config" - MAC present
- pulled misc.img, checked at HEX 600 - MAC present
- checked hidden call menu - MAC present

I turn on airiplane mode, then 2 seconds later turn airiplane mode off and wifi works.

Unfortunately this trick (activate WiFi in flight mode) does not work.
But thanks for the idea! :good:
During my long research I had read somewhere that WiFi worked again on a LG with the same symptoms after disconnecting the battery cable.
I don't want to try this during the warranty period.
I know why I don't like fixed batteries!
I probably have no choice but to install a KDZ firmware, lock the bootloader and send the phone in for repair.
Or does anyone else have an idea how I can bring the WiFi back to life?
I have now flashed H87020c_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0817.kdz and locked the bootloaders again.
Even after a final reset to factory defaults, WiFi stays impossible to activate.
Any further suggestions before I send the phone in for repair?
The smartphone has now been repaired under warranty.
Parts of the hardware were defective and had to be replaced.
