I am unable to turn on my wifi for my venue 8 3830. It would stay grey as soon as I try to switch it to "on". I tried 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4.2 and none of them worked. Even on the initial Wifi setup screen, it was unable to detect any wifi. Any thoughts?

I am using I5503 for last 3 months with 2.1 version and the WiFi and GPS was working well.
This problem happened after I upgrade with 2.2 and then downgrade with 2.1 again.
GPS is not working at all. The WiFi only works after I reboot the phone. I mean, I need to Switch ON the WiFi and reboot the phone then it will connect. Otherwise, it shows Unable to Turn ON WiFi. If it is ON then it shows Unable to Turn OFF
Please let me know the solution. Thanks.
i think it could baseband problem. after i upgraded the baseband and flashed new beta version 0.4 of cyanogenmod my gps locks in 10-20 seconds (before it was 5 mintes) and wifi lock almost imediatelly (before had a problem with certain rooters, didn't want to lock at all). look more info in first three posts over here.
hope this helps
Just bricked my Dell Venue 7 3740 with some Build.prop modding and flashed the unbrick image to recover it.
After System boot Hangout asked me to set it as the default SMS App. I then checked and there was the stock sms/mms app.
I immediately tested the sms function and send an sms and it got send to my phone.
Then i saw that even the Phone app is visible. Without a blink i tested it and i could make a phone call.
I am now testing to update the System to 4.4.4 cause the Unbrick Image is 4.4.2.
I will report if this Version has also Phone and SMS support when its finished
And yes, even that the baseband has 3.5G in its name LTE is working fine.
Edit: First OTA to 4.4.4 and both are still there and working.
Edit2: Last OTA, it still works.

are you using mtnl sim in your tablet cause I am using the same and have the same error of ciphering but don't know of call broken problem as you say.
ciphering is something related to mobile internet which is when disabled it shows the error but when enabled the error is gone.
Hi, im using dokdo rom, android 5.1(arter97 kernel ver 4.1) and everything was okay until this morning. I wanted to connect wifi but i realised that wifi cant be open from setting. Wifi status is off but it says turning wifi on. Go to Status i see that IP, wifi, BT are both unavailable athough they were ok yesterday( yesterday i used them). BT is okay, i can find other devices and pair with them. Can some help me? i tried to factory reset and reflash rom but nothing happened
I purchase a Dell Venue 8 7840 tablet a couple of days ago. This was shipped with kitkat 4.4 and after first boot, immediately got a firmware update to android 5.1.
The issue now is when tablet was on 4.4, it was able to connect to wifi perfectly and now after this update, suddenly the tablet does not recognise the wifi connection at all and apart from this - 1. password for wifi is not stored and I have to every time type in the password..............2. Even if the wifi is ON, the connection on tablet is NOT ON and it only SAVES the wifi connection.
I am now not able to connect to wifi at all.........Could this be because of firmware upgrade? Should I try by doing factory reset? Will this work?
How to resolve this?
Hi everyone.
I have not been using my Mi Pad 1 for quite some time now. Recently, my brother installed an app that allows him to disable other users from connecting into the wifi. He stopped using the tablet because the wifi detects the network but does not connect (stuck with "saved"). I tried removing the SD card and restoring factory settings but still did not work. I also tried connecting it to a different ISP but it didn't work. All other devices are connecting to the home wifi with no problems.
I flashed the tablet with CWM and cyanogenmod 11 on both systems 1 and 2. Same thing. I was detecting Wifi but not able to connect.
I have also tried modifying the router settings as usually suggested by other users. Still not connected.
I also tried renaming WPA_supplicant.conf to WPA_supplicant.bak - it did not work as well
I have tried draining the battery completely and charging it again until 100% charged. Righty now, the tablet wifi is stuck on "turning on" status.
This is actually my first time doing a root, custom recovery and custom ROM install. I am really impressed by the guides posted here in XDA. I really hope there's still a solution to my problem.
Thanks for all the help!
*******I don't think it is a hardware issue because the tablet still detects available networks and is able to connect to bluetooth devices.
Hello.. Did you fix your issue?
