I flashed 5.1.1 factory image and booted up. I'm trying to skip for now the "select network" initial screen because I don't have the passwords. Even though there is a button for "skip", it is grayed out. How can I skip the network setup for now?
Ignore attached images.
go set it up somewhere with free wifi ..with a coffee most libraries have free wifi

Hey, I've got CM10 on my GS3. When I go under Settings, the Wifi toggle is set to Off and grayed out so I can't toggle it. When I go to Wifi, it just says "Turning on Wifi" indefinitely. I also have issues with wifi tethering sometimes.
Any solutions to this? I haven't been able to find any posts on it. I'd prefer not to reset to another ROM, but if there's no other ways to fix this, oh well.
Thanks!
Flash to a TW rom and see if it works.
If it doesnt work, try the following:

So as to fix this problem,some people suggest to do a Factory reset.But, it is completely unnecessary.Instead you can try the following methods, which where tested by me successfully.
1. Dial *#*#526#*#* to reload the wifi driver.If it doesn’t work, restart your phone and dial it once gain.It will work for sure.
2.There is an app “Wifi-Fixer” from android market,which claims to be fix this problem.But seriously,it hadn’t worked for my mobile phone(Samsung Galaxy Ace).But,
if you are interested, can download and try it here.
For HTC users, I have a pretty good trick which works very well.
When you have obtaining IP address problem,
1.Turn off wifi.
2.Open “Allshare”, then you will be asked to connect to a wifi network.
3.Then select the wifi network that you need to connect from the list opened.
Magically, you will be connected without any extra effort.This works 100% sure without fail.
If that doesnt work try this:
1.Dial *#*#526#*#*.Then a message will be shown “Driver loading Successful”.
2.Now Start the WiFi, it should work.
If the message “Driver Loading Unsuccessful” is shown, follow these steps:
1. Dial *#*#526#*#* again and click options button on your phone.
2. Select Rx test.
3. Select Channel >9 .
4. Click Start and exit.
5 . After some time, turn on the wifi.It should work.

My phone won't even let me dial that, the code disappears the second I hit star the last time, not sure if it's supposed to do that. I'm gonna just try updating CM and see if that fixes it.
After flashing this ROM (3 times), I'm not able to get WiFi working. The Play store didn't work right away, and I kept getting the "Hands Free Activation" wizard every time I booted, but after wiping and re-flashing I think those work.
When I turn on WiFi, it sees my network, but when I enter the password it just says "saved, secured" and doesn't try to connect. Clicking on the network only gives me the options to Cancel, Forget, or Connect. Connect does nothing, and Forget puts be back at square one.
I'm also unable to use the hotspot feature, when I tick the box it says "Turning on..." and that's all.
Any thoughts?
I can't figure out a way to bypass the activation screen after startup. I want to be able to get past the setup wizard without using a SIM card or Wi-Fi connection. When I click on skip Wi-Fi then nothing happens. I performed a hard factory data reset.
It still won't let me skip the setup wizard.
Thoughts?
It was because I didn't remove Google Account from G4 before resetting. You have to authenticate with Google using the last main Google account on the phone. An encryption key is stored somewhere safe from factory resets in the phone. Obnoxious...

what can i do now.
That's the order of how things happened:
1. Everything was perfect until MM
2. Battery drained fast as hell
3. I rooted my device
4. I installed TWRP
5. I flashed SuperSu
6. Got into bootloop
7. I wiped and flashed stock ROM
Now I can't connect to WiFi or Bluetooth. The WiFi symbol keeps flashing and says "can't find Wifi connections, please check mobile data". When I go into settings it sometimes freezes and sometimes crushes. I tried flashing the ROM again but even in the first screen [where you choose the language, name of the phone etc] when I get to the connection section it's just plain white like it got stuck and then I need to press "skip anyway" just to continue.
Phone's a mess, an actual garbage. What should I do?
You just need to update your profile. That's it.
Settings>Updates>Update profile
OK password forgotten you still can use the device, but you'll need a smartphone with mobile data and turn on the "Mobile hotspot". on the checking for software updates a.s.a.p. turn off the mobile hotspot it will say could not connect
UPDATE 1. for those who do not have access to hotspot. be prepared to disable your wifi at your modem.
agree to the next prompts it will ask you if you want to set up security create a 4-digit PIN i suggest 1234. After you create the 4-digit PIN, you turn off the tablet and turn it on again.
When the tablet is on again and "Enter PIN" appears, don't worry if you don't see the camera icon on the display. What you need is the USER icon (what I mean is that "human face" icon which is located on the TOP RIGHT CORNER). Click that "human face" icon, then you'll see "Add user" so click on that "Add user". Follow through as a new user, you'll need to create a Samsung account or if you have one already you'll need to log into your Samsung account. UPDATE 2. I SKIPPED THIS ACCOUNT SETUP.
UPDATE 3. You'll have 2 users, you will not be able to erase the first one.
now you have access to storage place the this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...FRP_REMOVE.apk
to downloads run the app on install.
full tool here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...pps Full.zip
go back to users first user owner tap it you will log in to that account it will say set up tablet drag the notification bar down software update smart switch ignore it enable WiFi connect to any one you can then tap setup tablet follow i will ask for a password i skipped it and got in and went to settings now i had access to backup and reset full wipe done smile
Thanks to everyone who has worked on this i have updated these instructions Originally Posted by dama0002
