My NFC for some weird reason won't turn on. When I go to press it, it turns on but automatically turns right back off. I have tried turning it on in safe mode, even tried factory resetting my phone. Can anyone help me please and thank you

Yep, I'm serious. All the entries I found online are from people who cannot turn their WLAN ON, but mine won't stay off no more.
Not even a second after turning it off, the slider turns itself to the "on" position again.
If I put it in airplane mode, I get the same result: Off for a moment, then back on.
It's driving me nuts!
I already wiped the phone, went back to stock rom and installed CM again, but the problem persists.
Right now there is CM11-20140405-SNAPSHOT-M5-mako installed, Build-number 4.4.2 KVT49L.
You'll find a screenshot of all the details attached.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

try downgrande with nexus tool kit go to back 4.2.2
I guess this would solve the problem, but I was hoping for something less radical. Did you hear about this behavior before?
Right now I'm downloading the latest nightly, to see if it helps.
EDIT: The latest nightly didn't help.
I just realised that I forgot the screenshot and XDA doesen't allow noops to post links. Sorry about that. Please ask, if I you need to know any further details, like kernel, etc.
Whenever I turn on or reboot my phone my wifi turns off and I get a message on the screen saying factory mode is on. Wifi and other functions will be disabled. Please turn off this mode and reboot.*
For the life of me I can't figure out why it is happening. Has this happened to anyone else?

Put the phone into recovery mode, then boot out of it as normal or hold power down for 30 seconds to hard reboot (either is fine btw).. You have somehow toggled the safemode/factory mode on - probably accidental button combo
Thanks very much. Such an easy fix. Had a problem with certain toms rebooting when the message came on the screen.
Thanks again
Hi
I have the same problem. I put the phone in recovery mode and booted out. The problem remains. The battery also gets hot and drains. Please help.

Usually it's because of a bad flash or your /efs partition (directory) got corrupted, some fixes work for some, some don't//// UGH...

Hello All,
I just got my new Galaxy S4 and everything seems to be working well except the turning off. Whenever I try to put it off, the dialog box comes and I choose the Power Off option. The phone will go off and then reboot as if I chose the restart option.
I restored to factory default and it did not solve the option.
Have you ever met this issue? Is it a hardware or software issue? What can I do to solve this please?

Take off the battery for 5 min and try it again.
I think I also had this problem. Are you on 442?

Did you try to power the phone off when your phone were charging?
Try unpluging your phone and powering it off.
Since android 4.4 update on S4, samsung remove a useful feature that is charging the phone while it is off. So when you charge the phone, it will automatically turn itself on.

Hi
The issue you mention ( phone switching back on while charging) in the I9500 was due to a bootloader-software mismatch , if you had an older bootloader ( 4.2.2 or 4.3) with a 4.4.2 software that "bug" was present if you upgrade the bootloader the issue disappears
Hi,
I have a problem, i had android 4.3 and one day my nexus turned off. Now also randomly turns off. I thought it was an application, but I did the factory settings and I updated to version 5.0.1, but the problem is all the time.
I used logcat to see what turns off the phone, but I do not understand .. While debugging, I ran a few applications, wifi, mozilla, etc. and suddenly the phone turned off.
I put the logs, if anyone can help me out and tell me what is the reason for shutdown?
Thank you
Ok, so my phone has this problem where it keeps turning on and off randomly, which I think is now known is an issue with some LG G2's and you know I hate it but I guesss I can live with it. Even though if any of you have a solution for that please tell me. But now one time when it turned off and then powered back on, the wifi stopped working. I don't mean my network, I mean the actual wifi on my phone. When I scroll down my notification bar, the wifi logo is grey but it's flashing, like it usually does when you turn it on, but it doesn't turn blue. When I got to the wifi section on my setting, the on and off switch is greyed out (but faintly blue, even though you can't touch it), and when I tap on the wifi section itself, it just says "wifi turning on.." HELP PLEASE

re flash the rom. i have things happened like that before, wiping all and flashing another rom fix, or go back to stock, sometimes the options settings are grey out. that fixes it.
