[Q] Urgent problem with Wi-fi after 4.3 manual update - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
This is my first post here so don't be so harsh
Ok, to be quick, i've updated my Note 2 International Version manually with 4.3.
The phone was already rooted before the update, so i did't make an update via Kies. I've done it with ODIN
You can find attached all the details like firmware and so on.
My phone details:
Baseband: N7100XXUEMJ5
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-2099172
Build Number: JSS15J.N7100XXUEML3
After the update, i received the "Emergency call only" error. and i have fixed it by flashing my modem and kernel via RomManager.
But now i have another big problem. I cannot activate Wifi. When i click on it, it doesnt do anything, not even giving me that green sign. NOTHING
I've searched all the forums but nothing seems to be a little bit more specific. Only gibberish.
Can anybody please tell me what to do? (Should i reset to the factory settings? but i really want to keep my data)
Please help!!!

[Q] Baseband version becomes unknown after restart

I'm using Droid Incredible 2 and facing a strange problem that I need help
My phone is using GSM network and rom Cyanogenmod 7 stable version
The phone works without problem until I restart the phone, the Baseband version becomes unknown and the notification shows the message "No service" so I don't have any mobile network
I tried to reflash the ROM and the problem seemed disappear. But when I perform a restart, I experience the same problem again
Is there anyone know how to solve this problem?

I would ask in the rom specific thread. You're more likely to get someone with experience with that rom to answer.

He can't post there most likely since he has only 2 posts. I had an issue with Viper like this but thought it was related to Hurricane Sandy....
One morning I grab my phone off the usb (computer) and it says Vodafone instead of VZW on the lock screen. Hmmm. Reboot and nothing changes. Can't send of receive texts or connect to 3g but phone works. I tried pulling battery, sim card....to no avail. As a last resort I wiped data and it has worked since with no issue although that forced me to re-install all my apps.
Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for your suggest. I wiped data and my phone works too. But I wonder what is the root cause of this issue? A problem of custom rom ???

After recovering from download mode t989 does not recognize SIM Card

Some days ago I tried to upgrade my phone to the latest official ICS using ODIN as KIES
was always giving disconnection errors before finishing the upgrade.
Finally I got my phone stuck at the download mode with an error message and a yellow warning
triangle.
I thought I had a bricked phone, but fortunately I managed to recover it using an old
official ROM. The problems is that now it doesn´t recognize any inserted simcard.
The current installed software versions are:
Android 2.3.5
Base band: T989UVKID
Kernel version: 2.6.35.11
Compilation number: GINGERBREAD.UVKID

one you can call tmobile and have your sim card registered and that sometimes fixes it. Or you can try to factory reset this way dial *2767*3855# this should return everything to original factory settings which should allow you to use your sim card. Back up phone first because this will wipe everything!!
Hello,
Thank you for the response. The process worked as expected (the format process... etc etc), however I am still getting the warning message, as you can see in the attached picture

My guess is the kernel never got transfered over when using ODIN. I would get KIES and have it upgrade the phone to ICS and see if the problem goes away. Any time I had this issue it was kernel related.
Is the sim damaged in any way? Have you tried another sim after formatting yet? If this doesnt work tmobile should link it to phone for you. Forgot one more thing try flashing a new radio modem like UVLE1 or UVLH1 and see what happens.

Yeah that is what i was thinking its the kernel. Trying a new radio might fix it though

Problem with my connectivity

Hi!
I'm currently running the DN3 ROM and I have installed the latest version of the (v5.5 with update 1).
I'm experiencing connectivity problems where my phone simply loses connectivity. Don't think it is my operator (I'm I Sweden).
I can't post in the dn3 forum (or the developer forum) so I'm asking here hoping someone can help me.
Thanks!

I have the same problem just find a good rom that can run it and check your boot loader if its up-to-date
I'm sorry I do not follow. (n00b of n00bs)
Do I have to flash a new/dirrerent ROM or the same one again?
My bootloader is N7100XXUFND3. is that up to date or an old one?
Ok I'm learning as I go here I my bootloader is N7100XXUEMK9.
Is this good or bad? ☺
Ok I'm not sure if this really helped my problem but I tried to think what I had done the day I started having the problems and the only thing I could think of that I had done was installing Adblock. So I uninstalled it and restarted my phone (for the twentieth time today) and then it worked again.
Could this have anything to do with my problem or was it just a coincidence?
Nope! Didn't help at all. Any suggestions?
Does anyone know if this is a problem with the dn3 ROM or if it just me? Haven't seen anyone else with this problem.

Had to switch ROM. I'm on the Dr Ketan ROM now. That solved the problem though.

Wifi won't turn on

Hi guys. So about 1 week ago I finally let my s4 mini I9195 Do the update its been wantng to do for a while. Turns out when the update completed and the phone was turned back on again I couldnt connect to wifi, just press the toggle and it does nothing. So ive been lurking the web for solutions and done around these:
-Taking battery out various times and in diferent situations
-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980 did that even though I have no idea what rooting is and such though Ive read about it 1000x , just dont get why you do that or why there are so many ways and such
- wiped cache/ returned to manufacturer settings also a few times
So, by this point I have really no idea how to fix this guys and its been a pain because I am in erasmus and could really use the wifi. I really apreciate your time for reading this thread and hope that you are able to help. Awaiting your sugestions
Thanks
What you're describing is a very typical issue: the firmware wasn't updated completely (e. g. modem not updated). Solution: flash the firmware again with Odin.

Hey man, thanks for the reply. Can you give me a little more info on how to do that procedure?
Search for Odin (v3.09 or so). Check your firmware version and download it at Sammobile.com.
And use the search for further information.

Hey man thanks again for the reply.
I was doing this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-mini/help/to-stock-firmware-choosing-problem-t2968295 but near the end it fails for some reason... any idea why?
So I tried it again and this just happened.. Kies wont even recognize.
http://imgur.com/a57W9KM
If you are already on Kitkat you need Kies 3.
Have you probably tried to flash an JB firmware?
Search at Sammobile for the latest firmware for your country and network provider and flash it with Odin.
Hi guys,
i have a similar problem. I flash many time a couple of ROM (CM11 - slimkat) but the wifi doesn't turn on and also the cellular network and the bluetooth don't work...
In the last days i had many problem with my phone because i make a mistake during the flash (on odin) of a stock rom.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks a lot
I had the same problem. Wi-Fi didn't work after uploading KK firmware for my country (while to my surprise KK firmware for Belgium worked ok). I tried 3 times to upload KK firmware (XEO, anr PLS) via Odin 3.09 with the same effect (no way to turn on Wi-Fi). Then I used Odin 3.06 and it worked for me (I was able to turn on Wi-Fi without any problem - strange but it had worked). So try to use older ver. of Odin first.

[Q] OTA Weirdness - Tab Pro 10.1

Got a notice of an OTA last night. Figured it was for Lollipop so told it to proceed. Once the tablet rebooted the WiFi radio was disabled. Looked in settings which showed that WiFi was on, but no radio. Went online an saw that Samsung hasn't sent out the Lollipop update for the 10.1.
Question 1 - how do I restore my tablet since I can't get WiFi turned on?
Question 2 - where did this weird OTA come from?
Thanks for any help you can give.

Others having same issue
Thought I'd post this as info. Checked over at Android Central and several people appear to be having the same issue. Looks like bad firmware from Samsung. Bad build number is: KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1. Wiping and factory refresh may help temporarily, but eventually the wifi radio will be disabled. I'm going to wait for Samsung to get their act together and flash a fresh build when it's released.
Thanks for the help.

My 10.1 Tab Pro was updated too but wifi is working fine. I'm not rooted though. Same build number that you mentioned.

Wifi Issue as well
I had the same update come across last night and now I can't connect to wi-fi to save my life. Really pissed off. Done 2 factory resets already, reset my modem at home, turns out it happens everywhere and not just at home. Wifi says it's on but doesn't pick up any networks in my area and won't connect to the 1 that is already known on my tab. PLEASE HELP
Got the update last week. Wifi is fine but now daily I get a random reboot. Never had any problems before. Thanks Sammy!

You can download an earlier firmware from sammobile.com. If you are in the US, use the firmware for cellular South and make sure it's a 4.4.2 that you are downloading. After you download it, you can flash it with Odin. There are several threads here on xda that describe this process. If you still need further help, post again.
TabPro 10.1 SM-T520, v4.4.2 Build KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1 No wifi after update
Boy am I glad to find you guys with the same problem as I have. Couple of days ago I saw an update message and decited to go for it. Well, as all of you know, wifi stops working. Factory resets gets it working again but once everything is restored it stops working again! This is quite frustrating and I hope Samsung is working on a fix right now. I haven't been on XDA for a while and only rooted phones before. So how is the rooting/mod scene for tablets. Any good Custom Roms out there we can use until/when this is resolved? I'm good with directions and done some custom roms on my phones before. Let me know what's the good ROMS out there are...the bloatfree version is a welcome even without KNOX, I don't really use it.

Thanks for your feedback.
I had to use the firmware from November 2014 to get it to work and restore my wi-fi.
Again thanks
KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1 is the problem
Well I figure this particular firmware has a problem. Because even after factory reset, wifi works once and goes back to not working. So the best solution is to get an earlier version. I went back to Sep 15, 2014 version and it works well. Took forever to download from sammobile though. So if you need to flash to a previous version that works. I have post a link to the firmware I have on my OneDrive that got it working again, hopefully it will be faster for you to get your tablet working again. Here is a link. This is for the US Tab Pro 10.1 SM-T520.

thank you for those who warned about the wifi problems this OTA introduced. I'm just going to keep ignoring the tablets request to update. I thought i got a great deal on this tablet when i got a refurbished one for under $300 several months ago... but samsungs lack of support for this tablet is astonishing.
