Wifi Issues - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

I'm having issues with my Wifi and clueless on how it got to this point. Everytime I try to turn it on, it turns back off automatically. I'm at home trying to connect so it should have the password saved already. Any ideas on what to do?
I'm running Wicked Rom V7, I have been out with friends all day drinking. Haven't used my phone besides texting, Instagram, and Facebook. It was fine this morning til now.

Are you sure its not working? I mean after drinking all day, a lot of things might seem broken that aren't. :beer:
If you are sure its busted, check these things...
Make sure the password on the router hasn't changed. If you live with other people you never know. Or the router could have just reset to defaults for some odd reason.
Delete the saved WiFi connection on your phone and start over. The password in your phone might have been corrupted too, causing it to send the wrong password to the router. Don't try to fix it. Just delete the entry and start over. That way if its another problem you'll fix that issue too.

It's not that, my Wifi isn't turning on at all. It will light up for a sec and that's it

Try this,
Download and cwm/twrp flash the Ktoonz kernel, that usually
fixes most wifi issues which people are having.
Here are the direct download links for the Touchwiz JELLYBEAN 4.3 VERSION:

OR if you are using 4.2.2 rom then get the Touchwiz JELLYBEAN 4.2.2 VERSION:
http://ktoonsez.jonathanjsimon.com/s...11.14.2013.zip
Good luck!

I flashed the 4.2.2 and still have the same problem, I just hope it isn't any hardware issues. I guess I'll be backing everything up and reflashing the rom.

Found out every time I install this app I have the issues. So if any of you who had the same issue as me, just don't install this app. If you did already, uninstalling it won't help. Back-up necessary stuff and just reflash rom.

Not able to sign into my Google account

I'm on the Sprint GS3 and something weird has happened when I flashed two completely different roms that has never happened for as long as I've been flashing Roms dating back to the Samsung epic. I flashed the Avatars Rom and the Liquid Smooth Rom and as I went to sync my contacts I put my email address and password in and it said "could not connect to server". Any reason or fix to that problem.

Are you on WiFi? Might be either a signal drop or wrong password, but I can't think of anything else other than a weak data connection.

If you have wifi, use it. If not, Odin back to stock and start fresh. Sometimes between flashes certain things stick and u just don't realize. I flashed from one TW rom to another with a full wipe and a lock screen setting stuck thru it.

Same problem here. Tried different gapps, signing out of Google account, reflashed ROM, cleared play store data. I haven't even flashed anything in almost a month.

It isn't the ROM necessarily, restoring a recent nandroid fixed it for me. Thank God for nandroids!

Needed to install gapps for the Avatar ROM that's why it wasn't working. For the Liquid ROM its the kernel; I don't know but my phone wouldn't reboot after flashing the rom, the fix, gapps and kernel.

Try restoring with Odin to stock unrooted or flash a ROM to see if that works it might be some corrupt files or your WiFi radio just decided to go bad

I will try that only thing I did was root the device and installed twrp recovery .

Flash another rom or kernel, wifi issues are usually kernel related
Worked!!! Flash kernel mb1 jb.

Lost data connectivity

So last night I flashed a rom n went back to stock root this morning once I was off of wifi I noticed my phone didn't have any data. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I'm not sure if it was me backing up my stock root or installing the rom?

Try forcing hands free activation.

Make sure you're connected top WiFi when you do it, as it'll need to download some files in the process

Can't send mms completely stock

I can't send any picture messages, I have a tmobile locked s3, not rooted or anything, please help. I've tried resetting the apn and everything, rebooting the phone etc.

Help!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Were you able to send mms before? Try sending while wifi is on and off.
It could be a network issue too. Does it say 4g in the status bar?
Call support to see if tgey have any problems on their end.
If not, you could backup all your data and factory reset. Other than that I'm not sure right off hand.

I have 4g, full bars, I tried with and without Wi-Fi, tried resetting the apn, even though I didn't mess with it in the first place. I don't get it.

Are you sending it with stock MMS app? And are you sure you can properly connect to the internet?

Yes everything is stock, I have data because I'm using 4g to use Facebook, web, and currently this xda app.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
This is a total shot in the dark, so try if you want to.
Power off
Remove battery
Remove SIM
Replace SIM and battery
Reboot
I know it sounds strange. But stranger things have worked!
I still think calling support and finally factory resetting is your best option.

I'll give that first part a shot, I really hope to avoid the second lol.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Well, it was worth a shot. Sorry I don't have a better idea right now.
Maybe Odin flash the stock firmware?

Too bad I didn't see this sooner!
I have had that problem on 3 different occasions....
The simplest and always the only fix was:
Called my provider (T-Mobile)
Asked them to remove me from the network, and re insert me (my phone, that is)
Removed the battery, waited 3-5 min
re-installed the battery, and booted.
sent a mms picture to myself, and Got it!
no real work on my end. It seems the re-insertion to the network is the "Fix" that makes it work.
This why Doc said to call his provider. They should've done this if he called.
On the online chat with tmobile.. if course they want to make me try the hundred things I already tried..

3 support transfers and they had to create a ticket for the guys upstairs, could take up to 3 days...Wtf.

I'd call back and tell them exactly what you read from bobo above. Tell em you looked up the problem online and saw several places that said the same thing. Ask for a supervisor if they still won't try.

It's all fixed after they put in the order. I was at work while it got fixed.

GPS broken

I think my Gps is broken. I have been running seanzs skynote 4.3 n3 edition since its been out. I have tried wiping everything including internal memory amd reinstalling multiple times to no avail. I have tried flashing different modems. Replacing gps.config file. Tried multiple apps that are supposed to fix gps lock issues. Didn't work. Do you guys think going back to stock would help? And if so what is the best way to do that? And any other suggestions?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I would like to also add that I do not know if it was working before I flashed 4.3. I didn't use it that much at all until I recently was trying to use it in a city ive never been to before.

Try the return to stock... And test it...
Make sure that you upgrade back to UCAMH3...as it contains GPS fixes and new libs...
If it still doesn't work... The device may have hardware issues... g
