Wi-fi issues bother me to hell.. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

I posted what I'm about to post in the Q&A section already but I have yet to have a reply. I figured, why not try it here. Anyways, here goes.
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. When I try to enable Wi-fi, it will slide to the on position greyed out, stay there a second, and automatically turn itself off. 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:

[Q] Free Unlock 4.1.2 Flashing Modem

I have seen many posts on this issue but I still didn't get a clear answer. Since many had the same issue thought this mat deserve a thread. I am a new bee hence the questions.
We know that the free unlock does not work with 4.1.2.
We also know from several threads that flashing older modem solves the problem
atti317ucalj2modemfixed from previous threads (several thanks to other users who provided this information)
I am having some difficulties in updating the modem
I provided modem.bin file in Odin & used Phone button and Auto reboot. Odin fails to upload the modem. Am I doing something wrong?
Can I directly upload modem.bin or do I need to convert it into something else (tar)?
Am I getting the correct modem (baseband) files?
What is the best way to flash or install the modem/baseband without rooting the device. I don't have an option of rooting as I need to connect my phone through Good (does not work on a rooted device)
Any help will be appreciated.
You need to flash the entire 4.1.1 ROM. Not just the modem. Once you unlock by using the instructions in one of the existing threads you can simply hit the update button and go back to 4.1.2

Based on what I have read from the forums, people still can't access certain options in the modem after flashing the entire rom. Have you tired it? Which rom have did you use? Samsung-Updates.com-SGH-I317_ATT_1_20121005095854_bpaaavv07o.zip from hot files?

Yes I have done it. The reason people don't see all of the options is besauce they aren't flashing the full stock 4.1.1 ROM. I get mine from www.sammobile.com

Well that's the easiest way to flash anything on the phone!! Is using TWRP recovery.
You can try this then, when your done you can UN root it thru the superuser app.

Help me flash a T-Mobile S3

This will be my first time flashing on a T-Mobile phone. My friends have an S3 stock right now. They want the latest rooted stock ROM. I don't know where to start. Do I need to unlock the bootloader? Is there an Odin executable file that will flash the complete ROM? All I see are zips for full stock rooted which I would have to use CWM or TWRP. If that's the only way, I suppose I would have to root and install a recovery to install the latest rooted stock ROM. Any help is appreciated and thanks!
I read the stuff on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687, just don't know where to start.

Read up on how to root your device first, I used an ODIN file which rooted my device. I then installed Rom Manager to get the latest CWM recovery. You can also use Goo Manager if you want TWRP. After you get a recovery and root, you are pretty much set for any ROM you'd like to flash.

Start by flashing the root66 firmware in Odin from that thread. Everything you need should be there. Including how to use Odin. Just gotta be willing to put the time into reading. Don't take shortcuts until you are very comfortable with the process. Even then, be careful doing so.

As Doc said, read, i am new here and honestly i rooted my phone easily without any problems, it was my first time owning an android, first time trying to root one and how i got through? I read, and i mean i spent hours reading until i feel confident that i understand and everything is covered in "rooting". I plan to do this in steps.
I "know" how to root so if someone say, hey root my phone, i can do that. Other things like flashing new roms etc? I'm reading up now so in a few days i will be trying out new roms and all those other weird name things that these guys do!
You just have to plan on taking your time, Rome (roms either lol) wasn't built in a day and you weren't either, it took you nine months (i would assume)
PS Its fun once you get the hang of it! Take your time...

Thanks for the replies! I didn't stated it before but I am very familiar with rooted and flashing ROMS though not on T-Mobile that's why I was asking. I have previously flashed on Sprint and now on Verizon, so I have rooted and flashed custom ROMS a lot. Anyways my friends finally got some free time to come around to flash their phones tomorrow. I am going to start by doing a factory reset and apply the appropriate root66 - PreRooted Firmware that matches the currently installed ROM. Then I am going to install TWRP via GooManager and go from there. I don't know if their phones are still on 4.1.1, but if so, I am updating them to 4.1.2 using the following:
UVDLJC - UVDMD5
Type: Official
Version: 4.1.2 JB
Date: May 13, 2013
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687
Then I am not sure yet, but I will have to update the Baseband Modem with this file:
Baseband: UVMD5
From Build: UVDMD5
OS: JB 4.1.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880987
Release Date: May. 13, 2013
They want latest Stock Rom, but Rooted, so please correct me if I am wrong with what I plan to do, thanks!
dja2k
Just flash the root66 UVDMD5 firmware. Then you're on the latest stock, already rooted. Ill never recommend using an ota if there's another option available.
And you won't need to update the modem. It may not be the best one for you anyway. Just because its the latest released, doesn't mean anything when it comes to modems.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Oh my bad, I didn't see that the firmware is the full ROM. Ok but the modems are interchangeable, so I can flash it and if it doesn't work better, I can go back to the one it had.
dja2k
Yup. And in case you don't know, the firmware includes the modem too. We have a lot to try, so if you're not hapoy with one try the next.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Which is the current stable released 4.3 ROM that I can flash on top of the 4.1.2 stock ROM I flashed previously? There are several ROM's and have warnings like this one below so I can't figure which one to flash.

[Q] Bricked SGH T999L Need Help Urgently.

Hello Genius Fellas,
I rooted my friends T999L via ODIN perfectly fine & then flash CWR via ODIN without any problems. Downloaded the MIUI ROM from the forum, took a backup before clean flashing it. It didn't work & gave an error. So wiped everything and rebooted the phone and it went back to the stock firmware.
Then I downloaded the Quantum ROM from the original dev section and It wouldn't install either. So I gave up on installing roms and then downloaded the stock firmware for T999L : T999UVUENC2_T999TMBENC2_T999UVUENC2_HOME.tar.md5.
I then tired to flash it via ODIN but It's giving following errors. Ive attached the screen shots.
I don't know what am I missing, I really need your help. Thanks.

It appears as though you are trying to flash firmware for the T999 rather than the T999L. Download this UVUBNC1 posted in DocHoliday77's [Firmware/OTA's] [root66] SGH-T999(All Variants!) Official & Root66 FW & OTA Updates and try flashing it with Odin.

What issues did you have with the MIUI or quantum Rom ?
Now that you are on 4,3 do please note, any attempt to flash older firmware will HARD BRICK your phone.

Accidently Formatted SD Card!

I guess sometimes you just gotta live and learn. I first installed AOKP running android 4.4.2 on my Tmobile S3 SGH-T999(Non lte) about a month ago. The performance was fairly good and battery life seemed average, but it didn't have a custom kernel for overclocking/underclocking. I decided to use TWRP and flash Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 running android 4.3 so i can tweak the cpu settings and see if i get improved battery. I tried to do a factory reset but instead i formatted the sd card, losing all the content inside of it. The biggest issue i have though is that TWRP says i have no OS installed. I was wondering if i could use odin to flash the stock rom and get my phone up and running again. I already attempted to flash Cyanogenmod and AOKP but i kept getting an error. I found this article about how to use odin to flash the stock firmware on my s3: http://www.technobezz.com/flash-stock-rom-via-odin-samsung-galaxy-s3/. I was wondering if this method would work? if not what are my options? I will appreciate any help.
Odin should work. Everything you need is in my firmware thread stickied in development.

Thanks for the firmware download the other download was taking me hours. I just need to update my drivers and i should be all set
Everytime i try to update drivers it tells me "Windows could not find driver software for your device." I got it directly off of Samsung's official website so im not sure what's wrong?
FIXED!
I solved the problem by going into download mode then plugging into the computer. Thanks for the help man! I used this method if anyone happens to have this problem: http://androidxda.com/flash-samsung-stock-rom-using-odin
Glad to hear you got it fixed! For future reference btw, if anyone ever has trouble with the drivers I have a number of different versions linked in my signature.
And thanks for updating with your solution!

Flashing Kernel on OG5 5.1.1
I recently updated to the Sprint 5.1.1 and tried to root using odin and did not achieve root. However, now the phone gives an error when trying to do OTA update. How do I flash this kernel? Do I use odin to flash it or do I use the regular recovery

The kernel is flashed in TWRP recovery. Odin that, making sure you've selected the option to disable OEM lock in Odin 3.10.6 and do not select auto reboot. When done with the TWRP Odin flash, pull USB and battery, wait 30 seconds, reboot to recovery and flash kernel.
Are you having trouble with Odin or boot? CF Auto Root is not used to root OG5. After flashing the kernel, flash the rooted ROM or root with SuperSU zip if just wanting to root stock and boot.

AFAIK you may be OK despite that. I keep seeing that on the web so I thought maybe that's why OE1 thru OG5 bootloaders are giving fits and bricks (semi-bricks).
It may only apply to full tars; did you OTA or KIES to OG5?
The saga continues... feedback like this helps. Thanks!

Since you have a OG5 tar, now you can wipe it and clean install Odin to fix that.
Maybe try that oem lock disabled this time? Odin 3.10.6
