Wifi toggles off automatically after lollipop upgrade via odin - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please help me!
I've flashed lollipop build OB7 on my sisters s4, with CSC PHN which it originally was. On booting wifi doesn't work all of the sudden!
Can anyone help me?
EDIT: Baseband is still on OB7, should i flash OB7 baseband, wifi fix or both at same time?

Do i flash wifi fix?? I'm desperate:crying:

Boot into bootloader
Load firmware file into odin
UNCHECK Auto-Reboot
Flash
when flashing has done, wait 30 - 60 seconds
Unplug the phone
Remove and replace the battery
Boot back in to bootloader mode
plug the phone back in
Press 'reset' in ODIN
select your firmware file again
tick 'auto reboot'
Reflash
Job done

First of all make sure your bootloader and modem are up to date. If still not working, do what @dontpannic said above
Tap thanks instead of writing it. Guess what, it's easier!! ??

[Q] NEED HELP! My S4 doesn't like ROMs above 4.2.2. WHY ???

Hi,
It looks like my phone doesn't like ROMs above 4.2.2. All the ROMs i flashed, have a signal problem and occasionally, the WiFi doesn't work.
I've tried to change the modem but whatever version i try... i cannot change it. My baseband (XXUBMG7) is the same.
Now i have flashed via ODIN (as a last resort cause i didn't know what else to flash or try) and lost root and all, the official version available for my country (Romania) hoping for a resolution but... no chance :crying:.
As you can see in the picture... when i turn the screen on, i have no signal. Tho i can receive calls when my screen is off.
After a while my signal appears and i can make phone calls.
I can's stay like this... please help! Any suggestions ?

[HELP] No wifi and can't update modem

I really need help with this one... i Installed stock nh7 rom using odin and wanted to update modem and bootloader to nh8 but now i have lost the ability to connect to wifi and i noticed that the neither the bootloader or the modem have changed despite the fact that odin said passed...
reflashed stock nh7 and wifi is working but can't change bootloader
Make sure you boot into download mode manually. Extract the .tar files. Using Odin 3.09, untick auto reboot and flash the boot loader as BL and the modem as CP. Reboot manually and check again.
Also, when flashing a modem, make sure you untick 'Auto Reboot' and wait until Odin is fully finished. This means waiting beyond the 'Passed' message, it will come up with a further message to indicate it's fully finished after a minute or two.
Thanks you guys managed to update it...

Galaxy S4 WiFi screwy, reward offered for help.

Hey guys, I did a search on the topic but to no avail.
I have a pretty specific probably and am willing to pay a few bucks to anyone who can help me fix this issue.
I work for a mobile repairs place and we have an S4 9505 that a customer bought in, he took it upon himself to flash the latest firmware from sammobile which has resulted in the WiFi not working, you hit the button in the notifications panel and it goes half lit but not connected and never moves past that point. I tried flashing a different firmware and the WiFi fix from the WiFi fix and firmware post and that works initially but after one or two connections to a WiFi, it greys out again.
Thanks in advance.
Anytime there's wifi connect problem I've found that its the kernel.
Well, it is official firmware so there shouldn't be any software bugs. Unless, maybe, he flashed the wrong firmware on the wrong phone model.
check the wi-fi mac addres or make and efs restore, that happend when the files in efs/wifi/ where messed with, and thats a bad thing, flash a custom rom or flash a custom kernel see if it works
@Nationalmaverick
Hello,
You should try to flash the latest stock Lollipop firmware available.
-Download Odin 3.10 here
-Download and install USB drivers (skip this if you already have Kies or drivers installed)
-Download the firmware I9505XXUHOB7 here
Open Odin3.ini (found in extracted Odin package) and edit PhoneBootUpdate from 0k to 1, save and close. Then:
Extract downloaded firmware
Download and extract .pit file from the attached zip
Open Odin 3.10, choose PIT and load the extracted file
Load following files from extracted firmware: BL in BL, AP in AP, CP in CP and CSC in CSC
In Options, tick Repartition & untick Autoreboot
Put the device in download mode: power off->Volume down + power key->confirm with Volume up at Warning screen
Press Start
Once done pull battery out and put it back, then press and keep pressed Volume up + power key (you'll see a blue text, "Recovery booting"). Once in recovery (navigate with Volume up/down & power key to confirm) choose "Wipe data/factory reset" and confirm with "Yes", then choose "Reboot system"
Now your WiFi should work

Flashing Modem

Hi guys can anyone give me a hand, Im attempting to upgrade the modem on my s5 g900w8 but am struggling to find the correct file as well as a guide on how to flash within odin. I am currently running on the Canadian telus network and my current radio is G900W8VLU1ANF3. Thanks!
I don't know about the file but for flashing a modem/bootloader you will have to take out your battery for 30 seconds first then plug it in and start the phone on the download mode then of course plug your usb to your computer too open odin choose BL for bootloader and CP for modem and untick auto reboot and install after the status is pass take out your battery and do this again 2 times (flash the modem/bootloader 3 times) because most of the time modem/bootloader doesn't actually change if you flash it for 1 times so no harm flashing 2-3 times gl

S7 Edge G935F // Faulty ODIN flash // Stuck in Bootloader [SOLVED]

Hi Guys,
today I wanted to flash the latest Stock ROM for my device via ODIN. I've done this many times before and (thought) I knew what I was doing. It is my third Phone frome the same carrier and none of them were branded/ locked devices before. Unfortunatly I wasn't aware that this particular device was locked.
After downloading the international firmware I tried to install it and ODIN got stuck while writing the system.img. After that my phone did not boot up (of course). After that I downloaded and tried to isntall the firmware of the carrier, but I had the exact same issue. When I turn my device on I get to an error screen which tells me to execute an "emergency recovery" via the Samsung smart switch software. But it too gets stuck on some point and only gets me to an error screen.
FRP hinders me to install a custom recovery and the stock one does not allow any isntallations via ADB or SD card.
My qustion is: Does anyone know how I can install a rom from here?
I know that I had to have made some changes prior to the flashing, but as I said I was not aware and an Idiot for not double checking.
Since it is not bricked yet I suppose there must be an answer but I can't find anything.
Thanks in advance
Edit:
After only installing the stock bootloader, I am autmaticly entering it when I boot my devive. On the bottom of the screen is an error message: "dm-verity verification failed...
E:failed to mount /system (invalid argument)"
Fix
For anyone in the same situation: I fixed it.
In the end all you have to do is flash the firmware with the fitting PIT file. If you firmware consists of multiple files and there is a "HOME"-file, flash it with this one first on the AP slot in ODIN. After that the same again just use the AP file this time.
My phone is up and running again now.

have u solved your problem ? This problem i am facing on the s7edge nougat ? Plz help ?
Hey,
look at the second post I made in this thread. There is described how I got my S7 up and running again. I'm not sure if it is a valid solution since it felt like trial and error to me, but I'm writing this text from my S7 so it might be worth a try!
Good luck!

I described everything I did in the posts before.
As soon as you can enter the system again all you need to do is deactivate the locks I was talking about in my first post and perform a full wipe.
After that you can install any ROM you want via ODIN just like you are used to.
If that doesn't work for you, I don't have any answers either.
But again:
Prep work:
1. Download most recent ODIN
2. Download the correct firmware for your carrier (from www.sammobile.com)
3. Download the correct PIT file for your device
4. Put your device in download mode
Process:
1. Extract your firmware if it is a zip
2. Start up ODIN
3. Connect your device and check if it's detected by ODIN
3. Put the PIT file in ODIN
4. Put the "HOME" file of your firmware in the PDA slot of ODIN
5. Press start
6. When finished unplug your device and restart phone and ODIN
7. Reconnect your phone and check if it's detected by ODIN
8. Put all the other files of your firmware + the PIT in the correct slot in ODIN
9. Press start
After that my device booted up but still was, as you described too, a little buggy. So I deactivated FRP, activated USB debugging in the dev options, installed TWRP, performed a full wipe and installed another firmware of my choosing via ODIN (without a PIT file this time).
I am running 7.0 on my device now and it works flawlessly.

Does the TWRP flash complete? Can you boot up the OS after you flashed TWRP? (And did you download the correct version of TWRP for your device?)
As a last resort, you could try and flash marshmallow on your device and see if it works there.

Have you tried to perform a regular factory reset via the OS on nougat? Sometimes that does the job, too.
But as I said. I can only give you my best guess here - my phone worked after my procedure, so I didn't investigate further.
And don't forget: Google is your friend.

Well FRP has to be turned off (the button in the menu is called "OEM unlock, the button has to be set to on which deactivates FRP). You don't mention using a PIT file - did you use one?
