I tried JB recently but since then I have had almost none existent Wifi. It tries to connect but then says Authentication failed.
I appreciate there is a known issue with JB roms not having an updated Bootloader or something of that nature, and I have also read that it is possible to fix the issue by using Odin to revert back to stock.
These are the steps I have taken:
1. Flash Stock Rom using Odin.
2. Reflash Stock Rom using Odin but also updating bootloader.
I have heard that the above steps do indeed fix the issue, but unfortunately I have found no evidence to suggest that.
As there are many people using JB now (well at least there are plenty of ASOP and Stock JB roms knocking about), has anyone else had this issue, and if so, has anyone got a nice step-by-step tutorial on fixing the Wifi issue?
I really need help now, as my phone is almost unusable without a Wifi connection.
Thanks in advance!

There was an issue about wifi in older leaks but it has been solved already. I suggest you should try latest jellybean leak XXDLI1. you will not have to full wipe... so dont worry. you will not lose any data or app or anything....
I've just installed CheckROM EVO HD 5.0 and my Wifi signal is still weak.
You mentioned in your reply that Wifi is fixed in newer JB builds, but why didn't it work going back to ICS stock either?
Really need an answer for this as I'm going round in circles.
I actually never tried going back to ICS.when I had the same problem I just flashed the newer JB and it worked like charm. Try installing different modem..

Does the modem really affect Wifi? I would assume that the modems only relate to the GSM capabilities of the phone.

In that case restore to ICS and wait for JB to be released by Samsung .

As you said before that you already installed back ics which also has different kernel than jb that you used and it didn't worked as well, so tests why I said TRY installing different modem.

why not just download a different rom? lots of custom roms such as hypergalaxy are nice light and basically stock but faster
Problem found!
Ok....I've found the problem.
It appears that my WIFI refuses to connect to any WIFI running on the 2.4Ghz spectrum. Whether I set security as Open/WEP/WPA/WPA2 etc I cannot connect unless I am literally within a metre of the Access Point.
Luckily at my workplace we have 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz spectrums available for WIFI. If I only allow the 5Ghz spectrum on my phone I can connect to the APs without an issue! Leaving my phone on 'Auto', allowing both 2.4 and 5 I cannot connect.
The problem here is, my home router, as with most people, doesn't support 5Ghz, and being with Sky Broadband I cannot get access to my Broadband account details. This of course means I cannot replace my router! :-/ I can however connect a new router to the network, disable AP on the Sky router and enable AP on the new 5Ghz router.
....so I have a work-around!
But this isn't enough! WHY WHY WHY does my phone have problems with 2.4Ghz???
Steps I have taken (in no particular order):
Flashed back to Stock, gone from Stock to Rooted ICS, ICS to JB, back again, and in every combination
Disabled Wireless Power-saving on my phone
Flashed various kernels
Flashed various modems (yes I know modems have nothing to do with Wifi...but some people on this forum insist this can fix Wifi issues)
....and NONE of the above have worked.
Could this be a hardware issue?
Anyone else experience this?
Anyone ever seen this? Ever since I installed 4.3, have had issues with wifi. Now my wifi shows as connected, but apps say there is no connection, network error, etc.
Any ideas?
Full wipe and reflash, test before installing anything and reset your router.
I got this working, not sure how exactly. I installed 4.1.2 (which exhibited same problem) then installed 4.3 again, and after that it now works.
What was the solution?

Everything is from Ireland 4.3 package I downloaded from SanMobile, I9300XXUGNA8. This build did not do anything when I first installed it, but after rolling back to 4.12 and then forward to 4.3, all is good. No problems of any kind for a week now.

Ok so I have Paranoid Android 4.4.4 and I had upgraded to the most recent (I believe 5.1) and no matter what I did or straight talk did, I couldn't find a solution to get the data to work. I ended up having to downgrade back to 4.4.4 to get data to work. Has anyone had this issue with this phone and lollipop on Straight talk? The best I can figure is that straight talk doesn't support Android Lollipop..can anyone confirm this or post a fix to this problem? Thank you guys.
FYI
Before someone says use the search, I have already and googled for hours, there is a bunch of stuff on APN settings but nothing for my problem. Thanks again.

My son has a Verizon lg g2 on straightalk. He is running stock lollipop. He had a problem with data when he was on KitKat, rooted. Somehow his imei had gotten changed. Since I got the imei fixed his data problems have stopped. He's had no issues on lollipop, not rooted.

Well I'm rooted (obviously) and on kk 4.4.4 and no problems but with lollipop it just will not work. I've tried all sorts of APN settings and it just will not work..
Please someone help I'm dying to get on 5.1 and just can't do it if I'm not going to be able to use my data!!
Try flashing a LP modem/radio via recovery. Maybe PA doesn't include a radio so the phone is using the older KK radio and it might be causing incompatibility issues.

Just confirming - as far as I know, AOSP/CM-based ROMs NEVER include a radio/modem.

Just noticed CM11 official for hltevzw is now getting monthly builds... funny, we have no CM12 or CM13!
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=hltevzw&type=
It got me thinking, though... there are a ton of KK/based roms that are very smooth. In fact, I still think kitkat is the best base for this device as far as stability and battery life. Just look at the size of some of the custom ROMS like DU (180-190 MB) and the fact that they boot in under 20 seconds... even on the initial boot. Crazy efficiency.
I am sure that most people here disagree and interest in running CM11 is pretty low. But it still seems like it should be an option... especially since it is the most current official CM we have (last build is 6-12-2016)
The problem is that the radio in Kitkat doesn't work when coming from OF1. Theoretically, it should work if you ODIN back to KK... but that is not an option given the root/unlock scenarios we have.
So, question is...how do we get the radio working on CM11 coming from OF1... hmmm
I like your thinking mightysween. I saw the same thing last week and wondered myself. Can this be done?

It would seem that flashing the modem would work... but I tried two KK modems with no luck.
Will post some logcats, and maybe we can figure out the right combo.
IDK I am now strongly considering downgrading to 4.4.2. There are a whole lot more stable ROMS available for KitKat than Lollipop for this device. I might pull the trigger this weekend. Currently investigating viability.
Any luck on this?

Not yet... but wow. If you put a new looking theme on any of the refined CM11 based stuff (like DU), people would be abuzz about how smooth and responsive this "new" rom is. I think these older devices are just happier with the older android versions.
Just can't seem to make the radio work...
Have tried as far back as NC4/NK1 modems... but they either don't work at all or exhibit the same problems as OF1.
I wonder if @Moepda might have any insight having worked on sm900 ROMS through the 4.4 to 5.1 updates...
Seems that there must be a modem that would work...or is the newer bootloader version a problem in running 4.4 based roms?
Well... Stupid me never checked to see if ODIN flashing the modems was actually working. It is not! I have tried both tar.md5 versions and directly flashing the modem.bin, and while it appears to work and ODIN says "pass", the modem stays on OF1.
So that's the issue...
That said, it is not a radio problem in general, it is an LTE registration issue. So, when set to 3g only it works AOK!
If I can figure out how to get the flash of NK1 or NC4 modem to stick, I believe LTE would work...

There used to be flashable modems here on XDA, but all the links are dead. I suppose I could just make one and try.
FWIW, I am running an OLD Dirty Unicorns moepda build from 2014, and it is quite refreshing after so long with cm12 and cm13. Fast, stable, and seemingly lacking nothing I use compared to CM12/13

No steps at all, really... it just works. Flashed and then switch to 3g preferred.
I don't need LTE... so I haven't spent much time trying to figure it out. Both this old DU and CM11 monthly are working fine as long as LTE is shut off
Obviously, CM11 is available from get.cm

the last version of DU 4.4.4 is here:

I am going to give this a whirl. I have always had trouble with finding the right gapps for KitKat though. Which did you select?
Notice much drop off in using 3G instead of LTE?
BTW In an earlier post I mentioned I was going to downgrade. Well, that's not really possible and you might already know that. I attempted 4.4.2 and was abruptly stopped by the bootloader. I did read though that 4.4.4 was possible, but if we can do all this and get a stable ROM that has GPS and Bluetooth functional why bother?

I am on wifi about 90% of the time, and when I am not it is usually while driving. So having only 3g doesn't bother me.
Bluetooth and GPS seem to work fine... GPS is certainly faster and more stable than LP/MM

Oh, and I just use open gapps nano... works fine
I take that back... You need to set the preferred network to LTE, let it connect (and then fail), and THEN set to 3G in order for it to stick.
Love the feature set from DU, but have to say that the 6-12-2016 nightly is pretty smooth.
So is LTE working on the 4.4.4 build?

Hi folks. Bought mine note 4 few days ago. Now i got issues with it - it is randomly reboot on incoming call. I personaly think this may be related to OTA update ive installed. Any ideas how to fix it?

its most likely the update process itself. Don't worry. Apps (without root) aren't supposed to cause to cause random reboots.
Sometimes old settings files and stuff from the ROM before the update can conflict with the updated ROM and cause bootloops and yeah the only way to remove those files is a factory wipe.
Its not your fault. Don't worry.
In 8.2.18 china stable rom this bug fixed.
Okay, so about week ago my phone got replaced(volume buttons broken). New one i have is 8.1.15 global. All was fine until today. Issue got back. I will update to 8.2.5 and see if it gets any better but im a bit concerned about what i heard about 8.2.5 global(battery charging issue for example). Anyone can confrim this?
No charging issues here on 8.2.5. No battery drain. I recommend update to 8.2.5
thanks for the reply, as soon as i insta
Thx for the reply. As soon as i install this update i will infor if it helpes or not.
Update didn't fixed this but factory reset after update did(at least for now). I wonder what is causes this? Some bug hidden in settings on 8.1.15 that makes conflict with incoming/outgoing calls? Anybody have any ideas?
Issue got back, this is very f**king annoying. I regret buying this phone... Anyone can help? I am on 8.2.5

Backup your data, use Mi flash to reflash firmware , that will leave it like in factory state, it repartition and reformat phone in the way. Many are recommending the MM beta 8.2.7.0.
I'm currently on 8.2.2.0 very good, highly recommended but do your homework and do a lot of research before downgrading or flashing in general. I think YouTube might be your friend in this case.

Issue is getting back over and over again, tried everything(even complete flash to latest available official rom with repartition)
All methods work for a while then issue is getting back after approx 2 weeks, i dont know what causes this, i am afraid that warranty won't cover this cause this is clearly software problem built deep into ROM, and first thing they do after they got in on desk in service is factory reset - this solves the problem for a while, and so on, till the end of the time... Maybe i should try some other ROM than that piece of sh** MIUi? All i want is good performance and stability - what rom will suit my needs best? My device is redmi note 4 snapdragon 3gb/32gb
