I'm a noob at rooting and wanted to make my old phone faster which was lagging just for simple typing on an offline application. In the end, I got my phone working normally EXCEPT the Wifi REFUSES to turn on! If I press the on switch, the phone forces it to go back! Help!
These are the steps I did prior to breaking the wifi
These are the steps I did prior to breaking the wifi
- I messed around with my old, slow phone by rooting it with iRoot
- Removed System Applications that bloated up the phone (Internet, AT&T apps, some Samsung Apps I believe)
- Installed Clockworkmod Recovery
- Failed countless times to flash a custom rom, so I searched online to solve the Status 7 error
- Upgraded my bootloader
- Wifi completely stopped working sometime after I upgraded the bootloader (I am not sure why its not working)
- Format and Wiped, wifi still doesn't work and system applications I removed were still gone
- Used a backup of the phone when the wifi worked (after I removed system applications...) and flashed; I kept being pestered with errors that a certain google service wouldn't work which would barely give me enough time to press options on the screen. Wifi is still broken.
- Tried going into Odin mode and flashed the Galaxy S3 AT&T i747 rom, this fixed errors but only like formatting it. System applications still missing and Wifi still refuses to turn on.
- Safe Mode
