Problem with Galaxy S4 SGH-i337M Wifi won't enable - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well to start of, I purchased a second hand Samsung Galaxy S4, I did check that everything was working and it was working correctly, until I tried to put the phone on airplane mode to charge it and tried activating the WiFi to keep on using it. (Note: The Wi-Fi was working before I put the phone on airplane mode.) It was strange so I turned off airplane mode and tried to turn Wi-Fi on once again and it didn't enable. So I went ahead and rebooted the cellphone and no luck. I didn't pay much attention until I got home, where I decided to restore to factory settings and yes, the Wi-Fi started working, but only for a few hours, I decided to do the same and it appeared to be working, but then again it stopped working and from that point no luck either. I looked up some possible solutions such as hard-resets, removing the battery, waiting for a while, etc, various methods and no luck. Bluetooth has the same problem but I really don't use it. The phone is unlocked and appears to have a different stock rom, as when it turns on it has "Claro" as a greeting which is a spanish network company. I am not sure if this affects in anyway but I am trying to give as much information as I can, any help would be excellent so I would surely aprecciate any help at all, thanks. :crying:

For a start, try flashing a different custom rom that is available on samsung galaxy s4 forum. If you dont know how to,make sure to read the frequently asked question that is made available in the forum. If that doesn't work, you need to flash the stock/official rom. That should do the trick. But that might lock/unroot your phone.

Okay I'm going to flash a custom rom, but just in case it doesn't work, would you be able to help me find the original stock rom? I'm not 100% sure of the original network and like I said it looked to be flashed to another rom which was not the original, once I'm done with the custom rom I'll give you some feedback, thanks!

Backup your current rom in the recovery and then proceed with any step.

Just to make sure, does the kernel affect the WiFi in any way? Because I noticed some red letters on the top left-hand corner saying something about the Kernel, and I have read about flashing the kernel which I don't understand..

[Q] Bought an used phone and don´t know what root.

Hi guys I am kind of new to this forum and really like all the website with so much information !
I am turning to you because because my friend wanted to buy an SGS 2 and bought one from some random guy whom he has no contact with.
The problem is now that the phone seems to be rooted because there is an yellow triangle that follows in the start up. I wonder if anyone knows how to see what kind of room is installed on the phone? I ask this because because the phone has been unlocked with the simunlock app but
the network connection is so bad, I´ve managed to make 1-2 calls to see that the phone works but i get max 1/5 bars in the connection barometer.
This made me think that maybe the root is bad performed by the guy that did flash the device from the begining.
If you guys have any kind of tweaks or ideas what to do I would really appreciate it.
I gathered some information that might help. This is taken from t he status menu in the galaxy S2.
Would it maybe help to restore everything to stock?

Sorry I choose the wrong section for my thread. Thanks to the MOD that moved it to the right one.
Root has no impact on signal strength.
But if you want to revert to stock, just download original firmware from http://sammobile.com/firmware, unpack and flash via Odin in PDA.

The ROM you use has no effect on your signal strength. The modem however, does. So you can try flashing a new modem if you're fine with the ROM besides the signal problems. ie.the UI, features offered, etc. Else you can flash your stock firmware for your region and that would solve your problem

Go to settings-wireless-mobile networks and in network mode check gsm only...if its on wcdma thats probably why u have poor signal
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Thanks a lot for the answers ! I´ve already tried to switch to gsm mode, dosn´t get any better. I will try to flash to a different modem but I have a few questions. Does it matter wich modem is current on my phone before i flash to another?
And if someone could point me in the right direction about wich modem I should use for my region, I live in sweden and use a swedish sim card and operator.
Does it matter wich modem is current on my phone before i flash to another?

No.
For Sweden I think it will be I9100XXLQ6.
If you got the phone from a totally unknown person, i would suggest to revert it back to complete stock, and then start making all the changes you want from scratch, just to be 100% safe.
I agree i´ll flash everything back to stock and start from the begining, I think it´s the best way. But 19100XXLQ6 is the modem that my phone says I have, does that mean that I´am on stock baseband?`Otherwise if someone could show me a link or something for a step to step guide of how to restore everything back to stock.
Thanks a lot for your help guys !
Look backup your efs folder before you start pissi g about with stuff.
Then go to that link and get a 4.0.3 stock firmware for your region.
Then come back here and you can be advised about like siyah kernel/nand backups/roms.

Like many others, I've followed the tutorial at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190 but have ended-up with a loop.
In my case I cannot find the Samsung ROM for the Canadian version ( I5500MUGJJ7 ) as can be seen here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13958293&postcount=1 I'm not the only one.
End result is I've bricked my phone I think (but hoping NOT).
I don't think by following that tutorial I made a backup so I don't think I can restore - or CAN I?

You need to install your default original samsung rom that you have the first time you got the phone.Install it and it should work fine.I did that.

Thank you for replying.
That's the point, I don't have the original ROM. I was following the tutorial and had NOT realised I wasn't making a backup and I don't think the original author even realized the it would happen that the Canadian ROM would be one of the very few which couldn't be found if things got screwed-up.

First try to get on the tutorial, from this sequence:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190
1.1 We need to install a boot-loader as the Samsung one is very limited and just plain awful! That said, it wasn’t intended to be used for anything other than the Samsung software so it’s not awful from their point of view but it’s pretty unfriendly to us.
To this
2.4 If you are new to use ClockworkMod recovery manager then before doing anything, please have a look at next screen to learn the navigation keys.
If this works, than we will talk what to do next.
Try different official rom, maybe it will work, you don't have anything to lose.

I don't think it's actually the ROM which is the problem but the "baseband". Twice I followed the tutorial and everything worked until it came time to restart the phone. At which time it went into the loop.
I have unlocked G5 and it is not Virgin Mobile - what now!

(Q) Problems flashing ROMS

I have problems flashing Roms I dont know what could be the reason. Couple days ago my SD card died I bought a new one I tried to flash the new version of Tweaked I forgot to made a back up and for some reason my phone will get stuck on the "Galaxy note 2" screen or return to the TWRP menu I tried to flash at least 5 different roms and same results the only one It was able to boot was Clean rom 3.1. I updated TWRP to the latest version and still having the same issues if any one can tell me what to do I will appreciate it

You do know first boots take a while right? You should wait up to or at least 10 minutes for the first boot of a rom.

I'm actually having a similar, if more limited, problem. I recently tried flashing P.A.C. rom onto my Note 2, but it would just hang on the galaxy note 2 screen. I left it for more than 10 minutes without change. However, after that I tried flashing Cyanogen; which worked just fine.
I'd greatly appreciate any tips on how to figure out what's going wrong.

Before I never had issues till a couple days ago. Like you i waited for more than 10 minutes and never booted up
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda app-developers app
And now it works.
So, I seem to actually have things working now and I figured I should give a quick update.
Before, I was using a nightly of P.A.C. rom, because I didn't see anything more stable at the time. Now I've switched to a milestone rom and it boots just fine. At this point, I think I'd pin the blame on a glitch the rom I was trying to flash; given the fact that Cyanogen and the current iteration work fine

GT P7500 stuck in bootloop need help

HI, I've been through all the forums before and fixed my tab from stock once before by loading ICS onto it, but now, about 6 months since I fixed it, it is again getting stuck just after the Samsung screen and wont load any more.
I have been through everything I did before to fix, but nothing is working this time. I am new to this but have a VERY general understanding on what to do.
I have flashed with various recoveries, and bootloaders, tried installing the ROMs again, but nothing works.

Hmm... Sounds slightly familiar with something I had a few days ago. I reflashed the stock 4.0.4 rom with Odin to fix it. Then did a full factory reset with the stock recovery. If you can still access your files when you connect your tab to your computer then this is the time to make a backup of everything you don't want to loose. I copied my nandroid backup back on my tab and it's just the way it was before I messed it up with a bad flash.

I'll give anything a try! I'm not worried about what's on the tab, I've already wiped it several times trying to fix it. So since I had the ics rom on it does that effect reflashing with a stock? I don't mind what rom I'm running just need it to work! Where do I download the stock rom? I have some pretty basic questions. .. So once I download the stock rom, I use Odin (any particular version?) and flash with the file in the pda section? Then reset to factory setting in the recovery mode. .. Is that how u did it?

s9+ International - How to Fix SIM Network PIN Blocked/Enter SIM Network PUK

Folks,
I need help in a big way. I rooted my s9+ International several months ago and had the Renovate Ice Rom on it. It was working fine but I wanted to try out a different rom. The title of my post says it all. Since loading the other rom I have not been able to get it to recognize my T-Mo sim card (tried a new one also) to make/receive calls or texts. I can access the internet just fine. I've done everything that I could think of from doing a factory reset several times to flashing the original stock rom several times, trying 2 internet services in an attempt to "unlock" it. T-Mo is obviously no help and even after flashing the stock rom twice, I sent it to Samsung Singapore thinking that they could help but they want to charge $400 to put in a new motherboard which I declined. It's on it's way back to me.
Any and all suggestions will be greatly welcomed as I've reverted to using my LG V20 for the time being. I paid $1,000 for the s9+! This is the 1st time in years of flashing rom's that I've had this issue and may never flash another rom again due to this.
Help......please.

Flash the devbase rom. You most likely flashed the detonator mod and that can mess with returning to stock. Also follow the advice others gave and look in tek's thread. Easy solution for me when this happened was to clean flash devbase and go from there.

I'm currently on the stock rom after 2 factory resets then flashing the stock rom twice. I did have tek's mod on it "prior" to the above. Wouldn't all of the above have wiped his mod off the phone completely leaving nothing to uninstall?
I've done nothing to it since all of the above so supposedly it's a clean phone at this point. So based on that info., what would you suggest?

Wiping doesn't eliminate it. You have to properly restore or flash with a rom that overwrites the mod.

As you're vouching for his rom, I'll root and install twrp again and flash his rom. Did you flash tek's mod afterwards as well if you're still on T-Mobile?
I'll get my phone back from Samsung Singapore this week and give it a shot. If it works, how do I get a "donation" to you?
Either way, thanks again for the help.
I can vouch for his rom cause I've run every one of them. If your getting it back from Samsung see if it works fine first. I don't need any donations. Give it to a charity of your choosing if you want. Yes I'm running teks mod on TMobile now. Having volte is a godsend on TMobile as I get to many dropped calls on 2g and hspa.

Samsung told me that they would have to charge me $400 to replace the motherboard (yes you read that right) as a fix which I obviously declined. As soon as it's back, I'll try starting from scratch again via rooting, etc. as you've confirmed about. And I'll let you know 1 way or the other as to the outcome.
Your time is definitely appreciated.... Sabresfan.
