Hello everyone. Looking for some help. I suddenly lost the ability to use WiFi. I have 4g and cell service. When I try to turn on WiFi my phone reboots. After the reboot I get a message that the phone is in factory mode. I opened my EFS folder to make edits but it is empty. Can anybody help?
EDIT: I'm currently on 4.4.4 NH7 rooted.
Try flashing stock firmware, ShinySide has a link in general to download samsung stock firmware.
Pp.
I flashed the stock firmware. Wifi is somewhat working without rebooting. After a reboot i still get a message that factory mode is on and the phone turns off wifi. I also have to re-enter my wifi password to reconnect. Any ideas on how to turn off factory mode?
EDIT: Also when I trying flash anything in recovery I get a message in red saying unable to mount efs.

I already tried that. But for some reason my efs folder is empty. I'm guessing I need those files.
EDIT: Anyway someone can share their EFS folder?
Even after flashing stock NH7?
Try reflashing again, maybe open nh7 rom on pc with adb and copy content to your folder and reboot.

I've flashed Shiny Sides modem through Odin. Then I followed it up by flashing his NH7 Stock ROM. No luck. The positive is that I have WiFi working again. The Bad side is that I get the "Factory Mode On" message on reboots and I have to re-enter my WiFi password.
What roms where you running before ShinySide's rom?
Where you on CM11?
Check your bootloader.

I was on Phoenix Rom 4.4.2. Then I flashed Eudemony 4.4.4. It had some bugs so I restored back to Phoenix Rom. This is when my wifi and factory mode on issues began.
Try flashing Phoenix again, see if that fixes it.

Panch, thank you for sticking around and trying to help me find a solution to my problem. I'll give re flashing Phoenix a shot later today and report back.

Hello,
i am back again with a new problem!
All the previous problems that was mentioned in this forum is GONE. i was a happy owner. Until i got this problem.
so i wanted to try new Modem, just so i can increase my Signal, and right now, my data plan is keep going on and off, and most the time i can't get it connected it.
i did the wipe date /factory reset from the ROM manager, and wipe cache and dalvik. and yet the problem is not solved.
right now, am running cm-10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL
and the Modem am currently running which sometimes works ( I747MVLDLK4 ) am with Rogers, Canada, Edmonton, AB
If anyone helped me out with this, your next coffee is on me! for real!
anyone?
When I have Wifi or Signal/Data issues, I just Odin back to stock and then re-root & flash ROM again. Works every time.

Did you use ODIN to flash the stock ROM and factory reset in stock recovery ?

Yes! i think i did a mistake. While i restored to the stock rom, The baseband that i was using it was I747MVLDLK4 and not the STOCK modem. So maybe that is why its not getting connected? am trying to apply the stock modem into the the stock rom, but its giving me Fail error.
am just scratching my head right now to be quite honest and this close to throw my cellphone outside of the balcony.

What type of fail error?
How are you trying to flash it?
i managed to make my modem into the stock version. However am just getting "E" in my data connection. Reminder am still in STOCK ROM and stock modem now. is that a good sign that i slighty getting everything back??
should i just install the CM 10.1 now and see the results or what you guys recommend?
annnnnnnnnd my " E" is gone.. Beautiful
do you guys think it might be a actual physical sim card issue?
UPDATE: i restored my phone into the stock rom by Odin3 and now i just re flashed the Cm 10.1 again. sadly i still have no connection and my income and outcome for calling and texts is also not working.
please help!
Try flashing Task's AOKP and see if you have the same issue. Additionally, try deleting the current APNs (access point names) and manually enter the APN settings for your carrier. Could also just be a faulty SIM card as you mentioned.

You have your imei still ? I don't see that mentioned.... this sounds like that issue. flashing between TW and Custom it can happen
Thanks guys for the feedback, but i have managed to fix the problem, this post was before i know that i lost my IMEI...
All good now, everything has be resolved.
cheers,
I've gotten my phone into a state where I see signal bars, I can make calls and send texts, but no LTE or H+ is displayed and if I try do anything involving the internet it says there's no network connection. Wifi works just fine.
Here's how I got into the predicament. I should have learned my lesson from last time I flashed a Verizon ROM, but I didn't, and I flashed SkyNote RC9Z-3.9.1. Data works just fine in THAT ROM, but any subsequent ROM flashed after that... the network data is completely HOSED. I've tried enabling and disabling network data in settings. I've tried flashing the Devil kernel. I've tried restoring several different ROMS from nandroid backups. All restore fine and all have completely non-working network data. Last time I ran into this I had to flash the stock image in Odin to fiz the issue. This time however, that didn't work. The images flashed successfully, but upon reboot all I got was a a welcome screen bootloop of the samsung swirly logo and the T-Mobile logo.
I'm guessing this has something to do with the 4.3 bootloader? I'm downloading T889UVUCMK7_T889TMBCMK7_TMB.zip from SamMobile site and boy is it taking FOREVER! 7 hours left on the download. My thinking thoug is that If I unzip this new 4.3 firmware and flash it with Odin (or Kies if I absolutle have to) my device will start behaving again, and Network data will work, and I can go about ROM flashing and hopping again (though I'm gonna stay away from those Verizon ROMs let met tell you!).
Does anyone else have any other suggestions on what I can do to get my data back or to patch my bootloader to the 4.3 version? I was looking at this thread and wondering if it's safe to follow this procedure for patching once I have installed the 4.3 stock image:

Have you performed a factory reset or full data wipe from recovery? (flashing an Odin package does not wipe data).
Wifi and bluetooth disconnecting can sometimes be resolved by deleting the wifi and bluetooth (or bluedroid) folders located in the /data/misc directory. A factory reset will also remove those directories and allow them to be re-generated after a reboot.
There is also KitKat firmware (4.4.2) available at sammobile.com that you could download and flash through Odin.
hello,
I have installed a custom rom onto my lg g3 d852 model. But after many failed attempts to correct it, my phone will not stay conected to my mobile network. My phone is now running MM 6.0 on the koodo network. I believe that this problem may have started because of a setting I may have changed in the hidden menu.
Ive tried:
-downgrading back to LP
-Switching sim cards
-updating firmware
-checked the imei (still says its there)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I have found a temporary solution. I switched to HSPA only in network options, this got my phone connected back to the network at least for now. I would like to have access to all frequencies. Any suggestions?
Bump...
Which custom ROM did you install, and does the problem persist after a factory reset? If it's merely a setting you changed the restet will put it back to default. If it's a modem setting you changed in the hidden menu, a clean flash of the ROM will get you back to where you started.

I made a mistake, the rom is a stock rom MM of Koodo/Telus provider that I downloaded off of xda... I can link to the rom if necessary. I have factory reset several times and tried Fulmics LP and MM and this version I'm currently using getting the same results.
If I were in your shoes, I'd do one of two things. First, I'd try the nand back I made when I got the phone, before I'd flashed anything. If you don't have a good back up, one that includes the efs, modem and bootloader, then you need to revert to stock using the factory kdz image. There's a tutorial here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
I shall give this tutorial a try. Thanks.
Hi. I have a Sprint Samsung Note 4. I was getting a screen overlay error and decided now would be the time to change the ROM on the Note.
I followed the steps from "How to Install CyanogenMod on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Sprint ("trltespr")"
After I installed the first ROM, which was the latest nightly, and booted it up, I noticed that the WIFI says "Turning on" but doesn't ever turn on. It's greyed out in settings as well. I tried a few different nightly's thinking it was a defective file or bad install. Still no fix.
So then I went http://www.grantbarker.com/samsung-galaxy-note-4.html to try different roms, and I get the exact same issue.
Now I'm thinking that there is something I'm missing that the original ROM had. And for some reason the backup I made from it is missing, so I can't go back to it either. Is there a way to fix the wifi? It kind of sucks without it. Thanks for any advice that could help.
Were you on Marshmallow or Lollipop stock? Sounds like you have the wrong bootloader and that may be the reason. You would either have to flash the recommended stock tar or bootloader or bootloader and baseband.
I don't keep up with CM but the thing to check for is recommended bootloader in OP or search the thread. You may find it necessary to flash OK1 or OG5 bootloader. Dunno, maybe check for the baseband too for CM.
There's a bootloader and baseband thread in the development forum for Sprint Note 4. You should find what you need to flash in Odin AP mode. The ones labeled firmware are bootloaders.

You could probably try reverting to the factory settings and checking if the WiFi works? And then, you could change it to the current ROM again. This might help you resolve the WiFi issue.
