Wi-Fi turns ON automatically ( Official Android 5.0.1 ) - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys
I have an S4 I9505 , Official ROM Lollipop 5.0.1 , Band Base I9505XXUHOE2
Version Number : DONGCHAO.A730
I have been looking for a solution of my problem since a week now, but nothing.
My Wi-Fi keep turning ON by itself sometimes, I tried to look for Connection Optimizer but it does not exist in Mobile Networks.
I also tried to uncheck all Wi-Fi Advanced Settings but nothing, Wi-Fi still keep turning ON by itself sometimes.
I tried a factory reset and removed all the apps but the same thing.
What should I do ? Is there a FIX flash for this problem ?
Thanks for your time.

Search in the google wifi fix flashable fix

Another method here but copied from another sites that I found recently.
1. Go to your phone dialer
2. Dial *#0011#
3. When you see the "ServiceMode" screen, press the left menu button
4. Select "WiFi"
5. See that "Wifi Power Save Mode" button that is "ON" - well turn it "OFF"
6. Exit this menu, turn off your Wifi and turn it back on. If you already entered all your wifi credentials, forget your network info (remove it) and re-enter it again.

Milestone 2 Wifi restarting after official update, help please !

Hello
After I upgraded my second milestone for the official 2.3.6 rom the wi-fi is only rebooting every 10 minutes and this is more disturbing ...
Does anyone know how to solve this?
There is already some form of return to the factory rom (Froyo 2.2)?
Note: My second milestone is rooteado!
thank you!
Seems to be some kind of sleep-time of wi-fi, i got the same problem, but only when i don't use the phone for like 5m, and when i see the wi-fi is disconected but automaticly connect when i start using the phone.
try to go to the wifi settings and press the menu key. a context menu should pop up.
click on advanced and set the wlan-standby-policy to always.
if the problem is still present, try to reflash the gb-image via rsd-lite

No service: I need some smarts in here!

Problem:
No data service; I cannot call, nor text, nor use mobile data.
Symptoms/info:
Cannot change "Preferred Network Mode"
"Emergency Calls Only"
Network: unknown
Mobile network type: unknown
Service state: Out of service
Baseband version: G900R7WWU2AND8
IMEI: <this hasn't changed>
Phone: Ntelos Galaxy S5
S5 model: G900R7
I'm in an area with good service
A circle with a line through it indicating no internet data access
If I attempt to use the dialer: "Mobile network not available"
If I flash to a miui rom, I get the error: "LTE: ESM-x, EMM-15"
Possible Cause:
This seems to have probably occurred after an in-rom OTA update for the Mokee rom
Attempts so far:
Rebooted
Fiddled with APN/Network settings/preferred networks
Tried other roms
Restored previous build.prop
Restored previous apn setings
Flash stock modem
Restored stock rom using ODIN
Repartitioned with .pit file using ODIN
Used Kies' most recent stock rom
Nothing has helped a smidge. Any insight? I'm not afraid to get technical.

Thank you for the reply, but no matter what I enter into the dialer, I get the same "no mobile network" message. After typing in *#0011# the popup window in the attached screenshot appears. I suspect that a window whose menu has a "Back" category was expected to appear, so I was unable to accomplish steps 2 and 3.
I plan to take the phone to an nTelos store today, so maybe they can fix it. I just how they do not care that the knox is tripped
vndnguyen,
I am still experiencing the exact same problem as well. I'm updating with the info you requesed as we speak.
Thanks,
Tony
It's fixed!
So I went to store today, and they were baffled. The issues was that my phone was stuck in GSM mode, and refused to become CDMA again. They reset the network on their end, then that didn't fixed it, and said I could try restoring my phone to factory conditions through the back-up icon in the settings menu. Although I have restored it several times, myself, when they did it, it worked. The difference may have been because they had just reset something on their end before doing the restore. Anyway, it works now, and I am happy.

Note 3 lock up - cause could be not sufficient internal memory but not sure....

:crying:
I had the message that I am running out of memory soon since some weeks but did not bother. From time to time I deleted some stuff but kept on using the Note 3. Since 2 days (after the torch turned on for no reason and I powerde it down) the damn phone does not go into the PIN and passowrd screens anymore. A while after the Samsung logo appears (feels like 3 minutes) all I can see is the uper status bar showing the time, battery status, signal levels, etc. strangely the phone seems to be connected to my home network via wifi, I can turn on and off bluetooth, wifi ,etc. but that is it. When I press the "return" button below quickly two times I can see the "desktop" screen very shortly and the phone ends up in voice control mode showing a few messages and I am not able to use voice control, the message is "not connected to network". When I go out of this screen the "desktop" appears shortly but the screen ends up being black again.....
Before I return to factory settings (no backup done ) I would appraciate suggestions what I can do get the phone working again without loosing all data (memory card was removed, some pics and videos deleted to free up space, tried a brand new memory card, removed the battery, etc, etc)
Thanks for your help!

No Wi-Fi on Welcome (wizard) screen: Marshmallow

Hi everyone,
Got stuck with a silly problem and have no idea how to solve it.
So I have factory reset the phone through the fastboot => recovery and after the long boot up process, I was greeted with the Welcome screen and asked to choose the language.
All as normal.
However, when I tap on next, I see the next screen asking to choose the wifi network to connect to and activate the device however it seems like the wifi is off. The 'Add Network' line appears for a second and disappears right after (tapping on it does nothing), there is no networks on the screen, absolutely nothing. And of course the 'Next' button is grayed out.
Is there any chance I could skip the activation or enable the wifi?
I tried tapping the corners (no luck) so I'm kind of lost.
Factory rom, bootloader is locked and usb-debugging/factory oem lock are disabled.
Any ideas? Thanks.
p.s. phone is mine.

I had the same issue. If I remember right you need to flash the modem separate after you flash the ROM.

Wait you're bootloader is locked? You might wanna unlock you're bootloader bud.

hey mate,
Thanks for the hint.
I'd love to unblock the bootloader but I haven't disabled the eom lock hence can't unblock it, can't flash anything either. USB debugging is disabled as well.
p.s. Ok, sometimes it's really worth going down from the clouds and looking under your feet. I was able to get through the wifi screen simply by putting the sim with the data enabled on it. Went through the reactivation right away, sorted.
However, the wifi is still off and can't be turned on. Could you please tell me a bit more about the modem flash? The usb debugging is on and oem lock is off, at last, so can do whatever I want, finally!

Also, I've tried to flash the factory image but kept running into the error, basically stating the image version is older than the one on the phone..

I'm pretty sure you need to flash the modem via fastboot.

If you have no wifi then all you need to do is flash the correct modem (nonhols.bin) but if you haven't ever unlocked your bootloader then you should report this problem and get your phone to motorola service centre. In case you want to unlock and fix it by your own just find the correct firmware and reflaah the whole firmware.. keep searching for thread you'll find the whole methods step-by-step...
If it doesn't work.. bad luck
Just see when you are flashing you'll get an error after flashing modem. Just reflash the modem. It will definitely solve your problem.
