[Q] Wifi not working on n8010 after upgrade to 4.4.2

Hi XDA,
Can anyone help?
I upgrade my Android 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 on n8010 using a firmware i find on the samsung updates website.
I flash it with mobile odin pro.
The firmware got installed correctly the only problem is my wifi button is not working.When trying to put it "on" state, it goes back to "off" state
Things that i already tried but failed to activate my wifi:
(Btw those are the solutions proposed on several websites)
1.Factory reset
2.Playing with the wifi button several time
3.Whack the n8010 at the back
4.Playing with wifi .conf file on my android using Total Commander
5.Turn it off for several minutes
6.Turning off everything including my router
I am considering of flashing a rom so that i get my wifi back.
But before i do that can someone help me find a solution to the wifi problem because i dont want to flash a rom??
But in case that the only option can anyone recommed me what roms is best to flash on n8010.
OR Maybe i should sell it since without wifi its useless.
Thanks in advance

You Can instan only by ODIN and PC.

You need the new bootloader in order to have a fully working 4.4.2 version by sammy, and mobile odin doesn't flash it, and like HUNited said you need to use the pc version of odin.

Hi, how do we get new bootloader and how do we replace it?
In my case bootloader is blocked on N8010ZCCMH1, this is china version and makes upgrade over pc odin impossible beside 4.1.2 and when I do the update to 4.4.2 over the mobile odin the WiFi is stuck.I have the exact same issue..
As far I understand, the bootloader is the key.But I was not be able to change it to any european version, any help regarding this issue will be highy helpful.
Thank you.

I'll give it a try.I see that lot of those who tried 4.4.2 are getting back on 4.1.2.
Is 4.4.2 really so bad?

Touchscreen x axis reversed

I accidentaly flashed the edge version of twrp to my regular s6, 920r4. Now my touchscreen is reversed along the xaxis. When I dial *#2663#, nothing happens, only a dialtone goes on. Any suggestions?

Reflash regular S6 5.1.1 stock ROM via odin.

I did that, still no fix. Then I did a full reset, no fix.

Bring your S6 back to Samsung for repair.

Obviously my knox is tripped after flashing TWRP, would samsung be able to fix this anyway?

I hope so...

In other related threads, members were able to use the "secret codes" to update the TSP firmware. Could I perhaps install say the firmware for the 920F, then access the secret codes on that firmware, and in that process update the TSP firmware?

Flash this S6 regular S920R4 5.1.1 stock ROM instead of G920F:

Posting this for future reference for anyone that comes across this issue. The instructions below resolved my reversed issue.
@ScottBroker - If that happens again, you will not need to exchange your device. In the dialer, input *#2663# and select the "TSP FW update (General)". In order to do this, you would have to actually press "TSP FW update (Internal Storage)" since your horizontal touch is reversed.

This did not do anything for me. Could i just use the right one instead and all should go well? or there be another solution?

I finally got this issue fixed after almost half a year. I updated the firmware to a newer version, using the software update on the phone. My issue is finally fixed. I think that perhaps the several months new software update was different enough to require a complete changing of the recovery software.
Or at least something like that!
No longer will I be using my old s4, running liquidsmooth, that restarts 3-4 times a day. With a shattered screen at that!

A year after OP, I've ran into the same issue as the OP.
I accidentally flashed an edge kernal (I think, might've just been an incorrect baseband) on my flat S6 (920t). Tried things from flashing correct kernals to wiping to Odin restoring stock firmware. Nothing worked, then I found this and my problem was resolved in 2.4 seconds. I laughed at myself for this one :silly:
(Note: I had a TWRP backup, but didn't try restoring because it was from a previous firmware and I'm not sure it would've worked, which is why I searched for other solutions...and found this one!)

Hi I have got same problem. but afters tiping *#2663# nothing hapend. What can I do?

Which model do you have? The dialer menus might be specific to the model/carrier, I'm not certain about that though.

After rebooting my phone couple of times it works. Thanks!!!

No problem, glad it worked out and you can use your phone regularly now!

As I have found multiple threads for the same issue, I figured I would post the info in a few of them so if anyone else come looking for the issue and fix - they can get right to the howto instead of digging through multiple threads like I did. More info about the issue was found on the following link/s - https://1024kb.co.nz/galaxy-s6-reversed-touchscreen/ & https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62289392&postcount=9
You DO not have to flash any stock roms or other versions of twrp to fix this, as it will NOT fix the issue, as near as I can tell something corrupted or changed the setting somewhere on the hidden section of the phone's firmware. All you need to do is access a hidden engineers menu, click on a button and your done.
The hidden adjustment setting is accessible through keypad *#2336# (reverse-entered as #*2114*) (you have to do this as the touchscreen is still reversed so you are unable to enter *#2336# normally). Once the task completed I then was able to press the back key and have it function as normal which confirmed the fix.

Samsung galaxy express 2 problem

So like a year ago i rooted my phone(Express 2) and everything went fine. But a month ago i smashed it to a table and the screen broke so then i bought a new phone and a new screen and i was going to sell my old phone. But when i had fixed the screen and booted it up and i got the samsung logo and in the corner was Recovery booting.... Set warranty bit: Recovery
And after that i googled a bit and found some stuff like go back to stock and using PIT files with the stock. And i tried that but it didnt work. The only thing i can acces is download mode! Any help is appreciated!

Had this problem myself. When I reflashed ROM with ODIN it disappeared. And since it's 4.4.2 android - download 4.4.2 ROM, because 4.2.2 doesn't work anymore.

Can't load firmware on Odin phone bricked

I recently rooted my phone to try and recover some deleted pictures after the phone completely crashed and wouldn't load up , I have tried to install an original firmware using Odin but I keep getting the same message about not being authorized . Am I installing the wrong files or am I not doing something thathat causes it to fail?

Where did you download the firmware? Are you sure you're using the correct version?
Are you on a G930T or a G935T?
I had the same problem on mine before, what solved it was downloading a later version of the firmware, as you can't downgrade just like that.
You can download the latest firmware from Sammbile. (I would link but I have less than 10 posts.
The T stands for T-Mobile, and the 930 is the regular, 935 is the edge. If you're not T-Mobile, you're in the wrong section, but I'm still glad to help once I obtain more information.

Always flash the most recent firmware becasue if you don't remember chances are you can flash an old version and run into issues, so to be safe flash the latest available firmware. Also when you first rooted did you change the CPU governor or run/install anything that could have caused the bootloop in the first place?

You can install this awesome rom to speed things up don't worry it's a stock rom so no Knox trip. The link I will provide also has instructions. So to get started I recommend making a backup of applications with titanium backup which might require the pro so unfortunately you may have to buy a full version( if you don't want to spend money you can patch the app with lucky patcher). And I recommend checking out this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...stockdeodexeddebloatedrom-7-10-t3415952/page1
It is somewhat debloated and has the best speed I've seen yet... Ive been using it for a month now and I love it!

Maybe IMEI blocked if stolen or contract not paid off, is it 2nd hand?

Did you try using different USB cables and USB ports?
The phone may have to be force flashed using different hardware such as an octopusbox.

is there any other solution other than the box ??
in older versions of android we had the possibility to put the radio.img and other simpler solutions .

Usually, flashing a complete stock ROM with Odin will flash everything together including the bootloader, baseband/modem, recovery, and system.
Post the Odin log as there may be something in there that can help resolve the issue.

yes it is , but am pretty sure its not stolen , bought from mobile store was almost new when i got it .

i just managed to fix my phone (in phone store lab , probably they used the box).
last time i rooted the phone and then installed "noutfan " custom rom there was no problem with IMEI , signal or software issues , exept for many bugs in firmware and gear VR made the firmware collapse .
after this i installed superstock rom (without flashing bootloader or modem) i installed kernel and everything which was in the aroma installer ( its not the first time that i flash this rom . worked fine before last time) after installation last timei lost the imei and phone signal (before fixing the phone) .
i dont know what went wrong this time ,usually i install custom roms with no problem . now i have 7.0 stock rom (after fixing the phone) and i want to install custom rom but afraid of facing the same ptoblem .
Any ideas ?? what have i done wrong when i have installed superstock last time?? why i lost imei ?? how to avoid this problem when rooting and installing the custom rom ???
