If you didn't mod the system files then the original owner did. To resolve, flash stock factory 4.4.2 images. If you did a factory reset when you got the phone, and don't want to start over, flash the img files one at a time with fastboot (excluding userdata.img).
If you don't know how to do that, check out the stickies (I think in general). There is a very detailed thread there.

The phone was brand new when I got it. I believe it said update ready for download when I did the factory reset.. Now it just says that..

you can take the ota update through wi-fi only...
no need to reset. but i prefer to do it to prevent any system app from crashing and to have a fresh firmware.

All you had to do was connect to wifi. That update required you to do that. "Via wifi only".

Oh. Thats odd, but I guess you got it working, so thats good.

Your screen shot shows that your not connected to Wi-Fi. It says you have to be connected to Wi-Fi to update.

Isn't there an issue with google play services at the moment? Not sure if it's related. Would probably get better responses with a proper thread title!

try deleting cache of google play services.
also, if you are using freedom, disable it

You can back up with titanium recovery. After factory reset root with kingo. But I don't think a factory reset fixes this, you will also neet to flash the stock rom again.

This sucks -_- ima unroot and upgrade to kitkat anyways i dont get nothing with the root thingy

The problem is weard. You guys did not touch the system settings and all. Then too the wifi stopped working all of a sudden. I looks more like tring to tweak some setting and got them wrong.

Then there might have been some issues when ur device was updated. You updated through OTA? And u sure u didn't play around with your system files?
Sent from my SM-N9100 using XDA Free mobile app

Updated through OTA and everything stock. Was working for about 3 months and then all of a sudden got this issue.
Read somewhere that we need to disable wifi power Saving in service menu. But the thing is this device does not have a dialer to launch the service menu through *#0011#

Boot to recovery and clear the cache partition. It might solve it or backup all your important stuff and do a factory reset.

i think to try fixing permissions in recovery may solve the problems

Bump for a 4 month old thread.
Did you ever resolve this issue and if so, how?
Cheers

I think I have found a solution someone else discovered however Sambung might have fixed this since in an update as my wife's 10.5 is working fine.
I will put it here to help anyone who is still having issues.
I bought a Tab S 8.4 on ebay yesterday for dirt cheap as it claimed to have WIFI issues so I hope this is a legit fix.
You don't need to do a factory reset and fart around with setting it up again. SideSync is the culprit, which is a drag for those of us who bought this tab to pair with our gs5's. But, I think this fixed it. You can't disable it, but you can uninstall the updates to SideSync, which I think is the cause of the problems. I also have the Logitech keyboard that does cause some interference issues, but nothing too bad. After uninstalling updates, I ran wifi speed tests on my home network with the tab after turning off bluetooth (no difference), in and out of the Logi case (</=10% reduction in wifi performance probably due to the case *and* interference). Samsung then hit me with an system update yesterday (did anybody else get one?), and everything seems to be fine. The tab also automatically updated SideSync after the system update, and it still seems to be working... Hope this helps!

Still kit Kat for me.

I'm still on kit Kat also
Sent from my SM-N915V using XDA Free mobile app

I went in and cleared the cache on the contacts. Not the data but just the cache and then a restart. It worked for me and it hasn't crashed in over a week. Oh and I have a Verizon Edge on kitkat.

i don't think anyone with a sprint note edge is on lollipop. it hasnt been released yet. i get it every once and a while myself

Most of the forced closed issues can be solved by either just clearing cache and data under application manager or at worst just do a clean factory reset. ...in my issues with loly apparently uninstalling google+ solved the issues. Kitkat owners can try this..may not help...but may be worth a try. .
