I recommend resetting the router. I know it sounds strange, but I and other have had that issue before.
Ended up being a larger issue, see my newest post in Q&A for a smaller breakdown

I have had issues with my speaker after multiple attempts to repair. Its not the first time I've seen it, I've seen a few phones with this issue. No repair is possible. I've used 3 different known good speakers and no luck. I checked the connector and it looks good....I cleaned it after the fact anyways to see if it would make a difference and it didn't. So my question is has anyone run into it and fixed it with out getting an exchange and where can I locate a diagram of the main board so I can fix this problem.
Also spare me the just get an exchange BS. Please any help would be appreciated.

How was the screen affecting the speaker if you don't mind me asking? I'm curious to know as I've had issues with mine also.

Note this was removed in lh1 and newer firmwares. Even worse is that I had mine set to 2.4ghz only and that Is what was still set after flashing to lh1 which means without thus app I could never have gotten 5ghz to work.

Thanks for this gonna make a backup and try it out
Edit: I don't know if I switch it over to 5 ghz it doesn't connect to anything at all. The wifi on this phone totally blows that's about my only gripe I just use the mobile network cause I know out won't drop!
Question: is there any possible way to actually just increase the power of the wifi? Or does that need some kind of patch or something? It would be nice to use wifi when not sitting directly in front of the router

Yours maybe flawed, my first s3 had trouble connecting to wifi, swapped it for another and no more trouble. I can be outside at my truck in the street and connect to my wifi in the house on the second floor

Does it just not turn on at all? Sounds like your Bluetooth is not functional if it doesn't even work in stock ota

I doubt its bad luck nine dif phone I'm doing something wrong I'm sure but wat cause I even went back to completely stock no root or anything took the ota same thing no bluetooth
Edit: I should also add that I'm new to samsungs and odin/mobile odin etc. I've dealt mostly with htc
Edit: i got 2 more first one i update to ics ota no bluetooth 2nd one i got was already ics with working bluetooth i downgraded to el29 then did the same process as all the other phones but this one works????
Edit: ok so the one phone I got that was already on ics Bluetooth works but its white my personal phone is black I wanted to keep it black but have Bluetooth working so I swap motherboards but then Bluetooth didnt work once it was in the black housing nor did the white one anymore I restored them both to el29 then upgraded back to ics now Bluetooth works on the white phone again with the motherboard from my black phone but still dont work on my black phone even though the mother board in my black phone worked in the white housing, I then realized if I put the motherboard from any of the other phones ive tried in that white housing Bluetooth will work. Is it the antenna? If so y would i have so many with bad antennas plus they all work on gb

Running into the same issue. Assuming and hoping it is resolved in one of the new updates or a ROM from a dev.
It connects, and would work fine, then if I make a call or something, it would go in this dormant mode.
Dont want to sabotage your thread Abhi, but another issue with Wifi I am dealing with is that even though I have set Network discovery to Off, it would keep finding Wifi Networks to connect to. Got tired of pulling my hair the first couple days, so just turn wifi off when I leave home.
Yes hopefully it will be resolved in the new update and I have never experienced that. You might wanna check your wifi setting.

It seems like the S4 phones sure do have a lot of problems that people "hope" will be resolved with a magical OTA. Maybe it'll happen.
Anyway, I ran across this thread in the AT&T S4 forum, maybe it can help with the issue...if it works at all.

I spent days researching and trying to figure out how to fix my wifi problems. I found quite a few threads with people reporting wifi problems plaguing the Galaxy SIII as well so I used their solutions to solve my wifi problems with the S4. Here's my solution.
No issues here. Maybe because I'm using 5ghz n?
i was thinking i was the only one as i saw no mention of it;
but yes, my wifi is unusually slow.
my LTE speeds are WAY faster.
my ap is a Ubiquiti Power AP N.
my SIII and Nexus 4 would easily match my ISP max speed... 50 Megabit.
S4 ?
i get around 25, 26, 27 megabits.
hmm.

I'll try that next. It's a lot better than doing *#0011# every reboot.. I had some issues with 4G doing basically the same thing that it was with WIFI, but I lost the connection soon after; so maybe it was a bad area.

It doesn't work for me on 5GHz. Sorry, maybe it does. I need to test it more. My XDA app keeps crashing and I need to use a more reliable program to test the connection.
Eh, some of my other devices cannot even see the network; so this isn't a solution for me. I hope they actually fix this or maybe CM doesn't have this problem.
Have a DLink DIR-855. Connects on both 2.4 & 5, but cannot access internet beyond a few seconds. Tried all of the above solutions, but no luck. Funny enough, I have a DLink repeater/booster that I connect to without a hitch!??
S2, S3, GN2 work flawlessly on all connections...
I also have dlink and does this look weird

I turned off wifi power save and it still messes up. This is a huge headache turning on n off Wifi...
I just bought a LGOG from a friend and just noticed that it's impossible for my win8 laptop to recognize the device... I tried using my wife's ol' Win7 powered netbook without luck.
As anyone been through this and found a solution for this issue? I've tried all the versions available and none of them work. I'm running an AMD powered 64 bit Win8 laptop (my wife's netbook runs on an Intel processor.)
Thanks in advance for the help.

This happened to me on my first lgog. Turned out it was a broken pin. Best thing to do now, if you have insurance, is to get it replaced. I know you probably don't want to hear this but trust me I know how you feel.
idk how I got here...
