[Q] Wi-fi Toggle Switch is disabled :( - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Team,
I have been a silent follower of this website and have rooted my SGSII 6 months ago. Everything was working absolutely fine with no problems.
Very recently I upgraded my build to 4.2.2 JDQ39 with Kernel Version: 3.0.64-CM. My wireless is not working at all. I am not even able to turn on the wifi option.
I tried installing the below ROMs to check the functionality:
ThinkingBridge
Paranoid
Resurrection.
None of the above worked.
I'd request anyone in this thread to give me a workaround or a solution to fix this thing.
Thank you
Harry

Anyone in this forum has experienced this issue before me? Please advice.

Do a clean (format everything in CWM first, then use Odin) install of stock & see if the problem persists. Tho you've tried these other roms, you might have left something funky behind from one of them (just doing a wipe may not get rid of this) that has persisted.
If you have no problems with stock, try another install of the custom rom of your choice & see how you go.
Or maybe even try a completely different kernel before you do the stock thing. Try Siyah/Dorimanx maybe ?

WiFi will not switch on

I had been running the official Samsung version of ICS on my phone for a few months with no problems (updated via Kies).
Last weekend I rooted my phone but afterwards WiFi stopped functioning. When I tap the icon in the pull down menu it goes green, and then greys over. In settings it says Wifi is turning on, but it never does.
I tried flashing a new custom ROM, new Kernel, reverting to stock ICS from Samsung, unrooting. All with no success. Same issue.
Finally I flashed back to gingerbread in the hope that it was an ICS issue. That didn't work either!
I've searched and searched but found very little info. For the record, yes I've factory reset and wiped cache etc etc.
I'm open to any suggestions at this stage. Thanks.
Try a different baseband/modem.

Thanks I'll give it a try. Is that not more to do with the mobile network though than with wifi?

I think changing baseband will not do anything.wifi is controlled via kernal i guess.

Try methods mentioned there.if you are lucky enough you might get your wifi back.good luck.

I had that probem after I upgraded to resurrection 2.6 from 2.5.1. The problem persisted even after I restored the 2.5.1. (The camera also stopped working) I solved the problem with flashing the phone with the stock ROM. I am also interested to know why it happened? (Problem with 2.6 resurrection?)

Very interesting actually. Thinking about it I flashed to Resurrection Remix 2.5.3 almost immediately after rooting, and I think this is when my problems started. Only thing is that I've since flashed backwards and forwards through various ROMs, Kernals and versions of Android to no avail. Have you a link to the stock ROM you used?
I had this problem when I first got Resurrection remix 2.5.3, the problem lied in the siyah kernel I was using. I proceeded to wipe my phone (factory,dalvik,etc) and reinstalled the resurrection remix. But this time I went to custom installation and changed the siyah to the newer version or fluxi and wi fi started working again.

Thanks for the reply. I'm running Resurrection Remix version 2.6 at the moment and flashed the Siyah 3.4.1. Still the same problem.
Almost certainly the problem first happened when I installed RR last weekend, but nothing I do seems to solve it!
Any further suggestions?

[Q] Touch Screen Not Working After Temasek Unofficial CM11

Hello everyone, I was using ultimarom till now and it worked like a charm. Today I thought hey lets upgrade to android 4.4 so I found temasek's rom and it seemed fine. After flashing the rom, it got stuck on boot screen. So I reflashed the stock rom (btw I wiped everything as required) and it was working. So I retried flashing the Temasek's rom and it booted this time, only thing is that my touch screen was not responding. The capacitive buttons are working also the touch screen is showing everything but not responding to anything. I searched a little bit, and it might be possible that my digitizer is broken which I hope is not since I am in a different country and it will be a pain to do it here. Also I read that if you tried to install Note 2 kernel/rom this might happen but I know that temasek's rom is definitely for s3 so it shouldnt be the case for me. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

have you changed your recovery?
if you flash now another rom or restore your old one does the screen still not work?

I tried with both stock and temasek once again and the touch screen still does not respond. I always used cwm for recovery though, and did a factory reset on the stock recovery once to see if that works. I can flash ultima as well I suppose but I am not sure if that will fix it.
Edit: I tried to flash ultima but the installation steps required the use of touch screen so I could not proceed.
Are you sure that you download Temasek's rom for I9300 not for another model? Because Temasek supports more devices.
And on Temasek's thread I didn't find any user complaining about touch screen issue after installing it,so I think that you flashed it for different model.

Flash back to stock with odin if problem is still there then it is hardware issue....
I rechecked and it is temasek for I9300. I restocked ofc with odin and it is no use tbh. I mean it is weird as the first time I flashed stock rom the touch screen was not working for 30 seconds or sth than it started working so I was really happy for a second.. After another flash it was not working and I was like yea it will work soon, but it didnt. I tried with loads of roms and kernels and it is still no use.
Any help? I have no idea how to fix this! I may have to send my phone for replacement which will be costly I suppose.. Any little tip will be appreciated.

Didn't u install the new version of Cwm? I'm using ultimarom v16 & I try to use Android v4.4.2... It seemed good to me

Solution
Hey dude, I couldnt find any solution to that problem. What I did was to send it in for replacement but with warranty. For that you need to triangle away your phone and also install the official firmwares. I had to use a mouse in order to do that but you will need a usb to micro usb converter, which is not that hard to find( and also cheap). They couldnt tell that I installed unofficial firmware, I replaced my screen flawlessly. You can find how to triangle away your phone in this forum and also sammobile is the place to look for official firmware.
Cheers

[Q] My Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 BRICKED, Help me!

I Get a notification about the update to version 4.4 BETA 1 of Paranoid Android rom, after downloaded, i flash it via CWM normaly, then flash gapps, but when the phone reboot it stucked at the Galaxy S2 boot logo, and it can boot into recovery, only download mode, but when i open odin to flash CWM but odin can't access the phone and i can't flash, i tried to install usb driver but not success, so what can i do now, please help!
Sorry for my bad English
1) Your English is better than a lot of native English speakers I know.
2) Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General has all the info you need to get a successful Odin flash. Find the thread, try as many of the troubleshooting steps as many times as you need to in order to get a successful flash.
However, don't try one or two things from the thread, come back here & say 'But I tried some of the stuff in the thread & it didn't work. That thread covers this issue from every possible angle, and it's often persistence that fixes these. There's no easy fix in this situation because we're not there looking over your shoulder seeing what you're doing/not doing, and there's nothing which isn't in the thread that can be suggested in this situation.
So...I've (and Hopper has) given you the tools to get your phone fixed, up to you to fix it now.
@nguyenducanh did you manage to fix this?
I have been speaking with the dev (ayysir) of ParanoidAndroid, 4.4beta1 for S2 had a bug with the kernel. The ROM wouldn't boot at all with the stock kernel, but would with any compatible custom kernel (Dorimanx, Gustavo, Apolo -correct versions of these).
The dev has uploaded a new build now which fixes the problem, so if you've managed to recover your phone the new build is safe to use (tested by me)

Good job, I like to hear that someone recovered their phone using that guide and odin :good: make sure you re-download the ROM, you need the build on 0605, not 0604. 0604 is busted, but 0605 is good

That's because of the new theme engine... I saw something on google+ about that. I think it's planned to be re-implemented but may take a while due to complexity..

[Q] Mobile Network not available after Flashing to custom ROM

Hi guys,
This is my first time posting a thread in here. I need your help.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100.
Baseband version: I9100XXKI3
(screenshots attached for more info)
I rooted my phone By using Odin3-v1.85. and flashed the recovery to cwm 5.x (i can't remember version) and tried to install custom ROM OMNI
(omni-5.0.2).
I accidently downloaded and installed OMNI for i9100G version. But my phone is i1900 version.
(I downloaded this omni-5.0.2-20141222-i9100g-HOMEMADE.zip ). i forgot to backup previous ROM .
Then i was unable to Turn ON my phone because every time i turn it on, it come back to recovery it self (it's a bootloop i think).:crying::crying:
then i flashed the recovery to CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100 (version 6.0.2.7) and installed custom ROMs and tried (PACMAN,CM,AICP).
It works fine. everything is just perfect. But i can't make calls or receive.
It says "Mobile Network not available". when i call my phone from another phone i hear ringing it. But nothing shows in my phone. after few seconds i got a Missed call Alert. But this happens only sometimes. All the other times. i cannot call it from another phone.
I tried reset and flash modem using CWM as well as from odin. but no luck.
Please Friends Help me. I don't know whether i put this thread to right section or not. sorry about that.
I did all of these things by surfing XDA forum (as a Guest). And i'm happy about what you guys are doing. Keep it up.:good::good:
(sorry for bad english)
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

You will have to flash stock 4.1.2 rom or try a 4.1.2 custom rom. The problem may be caused by the drivers in the built in kernels but I'm not completely sure.
No mobile network on custom roms
I have already flashed the 4.1.2 jellybean rom but 4.1.2 rom also havr bugs. Lock screen doesn't work, I had tried hard resetting but it doesn't solve the problem. I Want use 5.0.2 hazy , cynogenmod, pacman , dirty unicorn, etc and other many custom roms but I'm facing same problem no mobile network, other than that everything work fine....

Yep.
I am having same problem with the network connectivity. It happens with all custom ROMs that aren't stock based. I am stuck with Chameleon ROM which is a hybrid and has a stock samsung base. It is a great ROM but is outdated. I would like to upgrade. Any solution to this problem is welcomed. = D
Okay I think I got a solution here. The procedure is:
1) Make sure you are on a stock based ROM or other ROM where your network is working.
2) Backup EFS.
3) Flash custom ROM of your choice.
4) Restore EFS if there is no network.
Done.
To restore efs, you can use any app tailored to do so but for me it didn't work. I followed this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-recover-imei-9-steps-t1264021
Follow the steps carefully and you will have network in any ROM you like. Hit thanks if helped.
PS: Sorry for double post
EDIT 2: Even though my network is back, which confirms that the problem was with the missing IMEI. I found out that the IMEI I got now is a fake one. Got to get the real one back now..
i did flash android 10 in my moto one power
after that i went back to stock rom but noe netwrok is not showing up
