Installed 4.3 now my wifi doesn't work - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Any ideas? I've reinstalled ROM with no luck. The wifi is just a grey box, in the settings it will slide across but NOT turn on

Is this Stock Touchwiz 4.3 in @Docholiday 's thread ? If yes then please flash the insecure ATT kernel he has posted as well.

Here is a stock rom CWM/TWRP flashable MDL for M919 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274795
Check it out, it works perfectly.
If not for "Added minor modifications (extended power menu, init.d script, rooted, proper updater script, etc.) "
I'd love it. I guess I may be stuck with that and unmodding the power menu.
Thank you for the reply.
Just noticed, it's not using a semi-stock/stock kernel (loki of course wouldn't be considered part of "stock" hence the semi-stock). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261013 looks closer to stock, but he is saying it's not a full install.

[Q] Proper steps to getting back to stock kernel

Hey guys. So, I've been reading and reading and flashing and everything.
Got an S4. It was running 4.3 and I was having Wifi issues.
I had read it was a software issue and welp, I've always liked Cyanogen Mod so I installed that.
It installed the nightly build which was WAY too buggy (I use my camera a lot and it kept failing) edit: but the WiFi worked perfectly!
I got back to 4.2.2 now but now the WiFi is Totally not working now and i'm getting that message about
Kernel is not Seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit : kernel
and it takes forever to reboot.
Since I was on 4.3 do i need to flash that stock rom to get my stock kernel back?
Or can I install deoxed version??
I still need to put custom recovery too!
I know this is a lot of questions and i'm not much of a n00b.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you are using any Cyanogen/AOSP/AOKP/GE/KiKat roms then please ignore the following.
If you are using a M919 Tmobile Samsung S4 Jellybean Touchwiz 4.2.2 based rom then here is
the way to fix your wifi issue.
Here is the download link for Ktoonsez's custom kernel:
http://ktoonsez.jonathanjsimon.com/sgs4/TW/KT-SGS4-JB4.2-TW-TMO-12.12.2013.zip
Download it and flash it using cwm/twrp recovery and the wifi will work for you again.
Good luck!
I'm running the stock rom but it seems like somehow it didn't overwrite the Cyanogen kernel.

That means that this kernel is for you..... "IF you are really running the stock rom".
If your rom was REALLY stock, I mean if you "ODIN" flashed the stock rom using the
official Samsung M919 4.2.2 Jellybean Touchwiz firmware from http://SamMobile.com
or other sources then whatever kernel you had the stock rom would have over-written it.
If you are sure that it's not over written that means that you have NOT ODIN flashed the
official 4.2.2 M919 MDL firmware.
Good luck!

Fenny has a wifi patch for his rom that you can flash with recovery, look in the op , it changes the build prop and fixes the wifi.
Fenny's stock rooted 4.4.2 rom.
You can get it from my drop box.

Kit Kat Touchwiz ROM ?

Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?
Lol .. :sly:
Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?

MIUI V5 ROM KitKat 4.4.2[Touchwiz] Version: 4.11.3(V5)

Rom is developed by a Chinese developer and all credit goes to him and i personally very thank full to him.
And like to many Thanks to the Developer of Echoe Roms, only his developed kernel works very fine for my M919 with MIUI ROM
I got this Rom from official MIUI website, as Galaxy S4 I9505 custom roms can be flash on S4 M919 Tmobile version but all we need to look for Kernel to boot the rom and work flawlessly, so i have flashed this rom which is generated for I9505 on my Galaxy S4 Tmobile M919 but few issues were there from which wifi was not working so spending time on net and look for kernel and flashed few but could not get working one and then finally got one which works like charm. Rom is totally in English after Selecting English language for first boot
I am using this rom from one week and almost every thing works
Calling
Bluetooth
SMS
Camera
NFC
Wifi
Wifi Direct
GPS
and i am pretty sure others must be too
I love MIUI and i was happy to get MIUI for my M919 so like to share this rom who love to have MIUI on there Android devices
Flashing Method
Flashing method is same like we use to flash every rom, only after flashing rom do not reboot, flash Kernel first and then reboot.
I am using TWRP v2.7.1.0 and others recoveries will work too
I have change my model number in my Build.prop file, because it will show I9505 and you guys can do it too, just google it, it easy
