Stock Nougat Firmware "BLUETOOTH WON'T TURN ON" (HELP) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

suddenly i bought this phone second hand. then when I tested Turning on my bluetooth it won't turn on.
Is there anyone experiencing the same problem?
I already did troubleshoot and performed this steps:
1. Wipe cache of Bluetooth Applications on System apps in settings
2. Force stop Bluetooth Applications on System apps in settings
3. Restart my phone
4. Wipe Cache on stock Recovery & restart my phone
5. Restore Factory Settings on Recovery
but suddenly bluetooth still won't open when touching it on notification panel nothing happens even directly on the settings toggling the bluetooth won't work. :crying:
my phone is untouch on rooting world.
So my questions is;
1. Will rooting and flashing rom can solve my bluetooth problem?
2. Is this a hardware problem?
3. Is there a separate chip or module for bluetooth on the motherboard of S7 edge?
to all XDA members I'm asking if you have an idea on this matter please feel free to reply to this post.
thanks you so much!

Rooting and flashing a ROM shouldn't be necessary, if you're willing to lose data I would just recommend a full flash via Odin as it keeps you on stock firmware, doesn't trip knox etc. There's stock firmware files and a guide on www.updato.com
Sometimes the OTA updates can be buggy and end up with issues like these. It could be a hardware problem, but I suspect it's probably more likely to just be something wrong with the firmware or bootloader.

I tried flashing newest stock nougat firnware XTC csc.
Tried it using ODIN
But still bluetooth won't turn on.
Can you say that our problem is hardware failure? But I think if it's a hardware issue then wifi should not work too. Because wifi and bluetooth is on the same chip module. ???

Update: I've talk to numerous technician and they think its not a hardware issue since my wifi is working. They said that wifi and bluetooth is on the same micro chip module. So if it is hardware issue on the bluetooth wifi should not work too. ???????? @dhawal4u

Same Problem here. Since 2 months after trying Badman Rom my Bluetooth doenst work. Now I load Stock Rom, Bootloader, Modem but no solve for the Problem

[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?

[General] Lollipop Information Thread S4

General Lollipop Information Thread​
Since many users asking the same questions over and over again i'm going to start with many "basics" answers for you
Why? because you guys won't use the search button :silly:
Can i revert back to kitkat safely?
Yes And No, If you have upgraded the bootloader.
If you have upgraded with Bootloader you might have some IMEI issues, And afaik there is none that has fixed this. Thus who hasn't updated the booloader can still revert back.
I got no baseband or WIFI
Go to More > About Device
Scroll down until you see baseband. if you don't have HOA7 in the end that means you're wifi won't work with stock kernel
Make sure that you always read the OP and if OP hasn't stated it, you need to update your modem and NON-HLOS.bin
Make sure to uncheck auto reboot before flashing!
Battery life is terrible
Yeah ofc you haven't had the rom for more than x days so it hasn't been fully set.
Can i use CF-Auto Root
NO! People who used this also flashed update-su in recovery, however flashing CF-Auto root isn't needed and it will not work due to old binaries.
How can i root?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/guide-t3018625
Why does X And Y FC
because you didn't provide logcat.
Why does it takes 2x minutes for it to boot first time?
because samsung made some changes which i can't tell, i've never seen such a slow upgrading screen on lollipop neither on stock versions.

ViPER4Android
I managed to install Viper as system app but problem is How do I Activate it? In Sound settings there is No Music fx, (although it's installed), so I don't have the option switch Viper on, let only see Adapted Sound and in custom profile doesn't select it either. Am I missing something or is it because this update is so terrible
great info Droid! saw this thread in your signature
Revert from LL 5.0.1 to KK 4.4.2 is possible even if you flashed the Bootloader!
Personaly tested and working like charm!
No IMEI lost, no issues soo far found....

Wifi Doesnt Show any available connection

hi,
I have a nexus 5 with lollipop 5.0.1, xposed (gravity box, amplify and greenify activated) and franco kernel.
My problem is that in the wifi settings i dont see any wifi available, my phone just connects to the few wify that i had already saved.
I donwload a third party app (wifi manager) and from the app i can see every connection available near me, so the problem must be rom related, not hardware related.
I tried flashing system and boot from 5.0 image, but that didnt solve the problem (i tought that going back to stock kernel and deactivating xposed would have helped). So i tried to flash 5.1 (i'm actually still with 5.0.1 because i want to use xposed), i flashed boot system radio and bootloader and that solved the problem, without wiping any data or app.
Since that solved the problem i thought that maybe bootloader or radio had something to do with it, ann i flashed again 5.0.1 with the new bootloader and the new radio but the bug was still there, nothing changed.
Is this a common bug?i searched in the forum and trough google but i couldnt find anyone with my exact problem, do you think you can help me?
If you need any log i'll post it here, just tell me what you need!
Thanks in advamce

[SOLVED]WiFi and Bluetooth not working after kernel update

Hi everyone! I built my own kernel and I flashed it but after the system booted up I tried to turn WiFi off and then on but it got stuck at "Enabling...". Only a reboot would fix this (but I need to re-enter the password) then WiFi off and on and the same issue. Restoring the previous boot.img fixes the issue. Also after a reboot Bluetooth won't turn on. This also happened to me when I tried to use ViperFX's "compatibility mode" which resulted in the same issue so it's not kernel related. When I had the issue with Viper I needed to restore system and data. Really weird.
I had 6.0.1 I don't know what region and I decided to flash 7.0 another region over it so I could keep my data. I used an app called DualBoot Patcher to install 7.0 which can convert a tar.md5 into a flashable zip. In the flashable zip I found the system.img, boot.img and other scripts to install this images. The normal tar.md5 contains a modem.img which wasn't flashed. Could this be the problem? And if yes, how do I flash modem.img?

I have similar issue on Galaxy Tab S3 running stock Nougat 7.0 + custom kernel and looking for solution (along with other guys from the Tab S3 community...).
Did you change build.prop's ro.securestorage.support=false? That's a well known solution, but it doesn't seem to work for newer devices and firmwares, including mine.
If you used another method then can you describe it?
Thanks.

There was a dev which told me to use some of his system files for secure storage fix. That is causing the problems. If there is someone to build your kernel then he should disable secure storage from default.prop. It should work. I can't tell you more about the fix as he told me that it is secret

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 ???
