Updated to 4.3 this morning from rooted stock 4.1.2. Rebooted and tried to turn on wifi. It tries to turn on for one second and then turns off.
Powered off, pulled battery, same thing. I'm not too worried about it since I did a full backup before installing. Anybody else having the same issue or know how to fix this?

You backup won't be any good. The update changed your boot loader. You're stuck until a new root etc is made.

I had the same issue. Along with SmartCardManager force closing every few minutes. You're not stuck though you just cannot use Odin to roll back. Flash twrp recovery using Odin and flash my restore here and you'll roll back no issues. Got me back to MC2 flawlessly

First I tried flashing another rom but that did no good. I followed the process created by Billard412 to restore my phone. That fixed the wifi on my phone. Big thanks to Billard412..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769
I fixed mine by re-updating using the zip of the OTA update someone posted on here, and my Wifi works now. Here's the link to the thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538470
All I did was saved the file to my mem card, rebooted into stock recovery and chose to update from external storage, found the file and installed.
Not completely crazy about 4.3, but I guess it'll get better.
I hope that helps.

Yea, fixed it using ODIN. I was hoping that there was a zip I could have flashed because I didn't have a Windows laptop easily accessible to me.

I know you got it fixed. . But you may want to look into getting mobile Odin from the play store.. I have used it successfully a couple of times. . Especially when my laptop isn't really available. Just a thought. ..

I was once rooted and the problem started then. Now im back to stock with the latest OTA update, but "SuperUser" app still shows up on my phone.
I am having an issue where i cannot use copy/paste
no matter which application i am on , as soon as i choose copy the app crash.
sometimes i receive a testservice stopped working.
There is another thread in the ATT S 3 forum but the only response was to flash another rom.
Any ideas on how I can fix this stock?
Thank You

So I've tried every rom that was based off the official jellybean. I even tried the stock rom by using Odin and it is still giving me problems too. So far, on every rom, it skips the welcome page after it boots and goes directly to the system manager popup. After that, my homescreen is all messed up. Someone please help
I'm using TWRP btw

After you flashed stock on Odin did you do a factory reset? Try that. It should solve your problem.

I tried that. It gives me the same thing. It skips the welcome screen for the tw jb roms and then the system manager randomly pops up. After it pops up, I get these random texts shown in the picture on my home screen and sometimes I can't pull down the notification bar when that happens. It was working fine yesterday though.

Never mind, I found a fix. Just had to restore back to my old ics touchwiz rom and delete root. Then I used kies to update to jellybean.
so I don't know how it happened
but over the past couple weeks I've had a lot of trouble with my phone
I didn't notice any issues until I flashed Skynote
it started out as just my computer not recognizing it when connected via USB
but problems have escalated further now
for some reason if I try flashing touchwiz roms 1/2 the time TWRP crashes while doing it and if it doesn't it constantly hangs up during flashing(it took me almost 1/2 hour to flash ultimate internation rom last night)
If I get a rom running the phone is constantly hanging when going through the settings menu.. or if an app is installing it will lock up totally for like 5 seconds
I've formatted thru twrp, I wipe the system every time. I've tried countless factory resets
nothing seems to be helping
anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Probably something corrupt or misplaced. Flash stock to using odin. That should fix it

I have faced similar issues twice after changing a rom. The only way back to stability was to odin a stock firmware on to the note II and then to re-root, re-install a custom recovery and reflash the rom.
You can use this thread to get the files to odin back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275844

seems to be running well on stock......I'm gonna put it through it's paces for a while before I get my hopes totally up though
I think I'm just gonna keep it like this until we get some 4.2.2 touchwiz roms

Try CWM recovery, not twrp....I never use twrp, , always hearing issues with people using that recovery method...Some phone's just don't like it..lol
And like Greg stated...most phones need a thorough cleaning every now and then to get the bugs out.
With TWRP its always good to have the latest version... it can really make a difference
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I prefer using CWM to flash ROMs on my device. I Always had problems flashing zips on my phone using TWRP recovery. It gave me a headache that I had to use the emergency firmware recovery in kies to revert to stock and reset my flash count. Do try flashing in CWM recovery instead and see what's the result.

Hello XDA community, my brother has been having wi-fi and bluetooth issues on his T-MO Note II ever since applying the 4.3 OTA. Before I go on, the first thing I did was use CF-auto root and flash both agni pure stock and devil kernel and neither of them have worked. In addition, I have used dr.ketans patch as well as flashing some AOSP based ROMs such as AOKP and SlimKat and neither of them have yielded any results. I have tried almost everything I can find via XDA and I am truly stumped.
Do you guys have any solutions to the wifi issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated! :good:
Can you elaborate, what wifi issues ?
Frequent disconnects ?
Battery drains ?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Wi-fi wil not turn on whatsoever. I can press the icon to turn it on and it will slide to the on position greyed out, and then go back to off right away. The same for bluetooth as well.
If the phone was already on 4.3 then wifi patch was not needed.
I would advise to flash stock image and start fresh. Make sure to wipe dalvik-cache after flashing stock ROM.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Thanks, I will try that when I can. By any chance do you know where I can find a 4.3 image? I've tried looking into the stickies over at the Dev section and they don't have 4.3 as far as I can recall. The only 4.3 image I see is the stock root injected one from Mr.Robinson.
You can download one from sammobile.com. You will have to register though, make sure you download the file for sgh-t889.

I just wanted to say thank you to both ciphercodes and Squilchi for all your help. My brother also says a big thanks as he doesn't have an account here. When the Note II finished rebooting from the image flash via Odin, I almost freaked out because nothing had seemingly changed but then I realized I was already on the 4.3 OTA. I also had an spectacular noob moment by forgetting to wipe cache in stock recovery. After I did that, I am glad to report that Wi-fi and bluetooth work as it's supposed to. I can't say thank you enough. In the odd occasion that this should happen again, a wipe of cache in stock recovery should be okay correct?

Glad to know issue was resolved. By default it's highly unlikely that these problems will return on a stock ROM but if they do then flashing back to stock is the most optimal solution.
Unfortunately I may have spoken too soon. Wi-Fi was working just fine for a bit but suddenly it can't connect to the network nor see any other networks. It can still turn on but connecting to remembered networks and seeing other networks are a no-go. Bluetooth is wonky as well. I'm starting to think it's hardware but I doubt it.

I have yet to wipe data since it seemed okay although the notion has been floating in my head. I did wipe cache and shortly after, it didn't work. I suggested unforgetting the network and adding it again and that seemed to work for a little while. No error messages, just the same slide to on greyed out and back to off.

Just a little update, I booted to stock recovery and performed a factory reset and wipe cache partitions but still nothing after it booted. To answer your question, I did use Odin 3.09 and it was already on MK7 prior to my first flash of the tar file in Odin. This is so frustrating.
Sorry for the double post, but I just did a factory reset and wipe cache and just re-flashed the tar file with update bootloader ticked and still a no-go. It's a shame the 4.3 update has borked my brother's Note II to this extent but it seems like the majority of people don't experience this. I'm stumped....

Prior to all this madness, I did try flashing JediMasterX2(I think) and AOKP, two ROMs that I would heavily associate with being stable and basically have everything work. Unfortunately, they didn't work. After all that went down and I restored my backed-up OTA all the way to now, it has been on MK7 stock kernel since then. I'm about to flip a table or something.
I just noticed an update on my t700 today. I installed it and after it rebooted it won't turn on wifi. It shows turning on but never actually turns on. Did a factory reset but didn't help. Shows build number KOT49H.T700XXU1ANK2
Has anyone else had this problem?

Flashing ANY stock kernel (signed boot.img) will wipe your WIFI passwords and settings. The stock kernel may be included in the OTA or within the full firmware package.
This is normal and not an "issue". If you are not rooted, you just need to enter again, with root you are able to restore settings easily (if backed up).

I understand.
However, I ODIN'd the latest NK2 (wiped everything) earlier this week, re-setup my phone including wifi passwords and everything was running great until I rebooted yesterday. For whatever reason, the phone stopped remembering my saved networks after reboots.
