I searched but did not find anything related to my issue. I have an AT&T Note 3 that is rooted. I recently received the small update that supposedly is getting us ready for Kit Kat. Yesterday, I tried to turn on wi-fi and it will not turn on. I have tried a number of things, including a soft reset, turning air plane mode on and off and taking the battery out, before I resign myself to a hard reset. Nothing has worked. I'm not sure when this started as I don't use wifi much.
I haven't installed anything recently, so it is not a software conflict. I do have exposed installed, but I haven't even used it for anything yet.
Does anyone have any thoughts other than a hard reset, or has this happened to anyone else?
I've been having wifi issues after the recent NB4 update as well. It failed to connect due to a unstable signal. A hard reset was the only fix. Luckily it's been behaving for the past few days.

I've been looking and haven't seen anything about wifi just not even turning on. Will likely have to do a hard reset. Oh well. Thanks for the reply.
Mine was just fine on NB4, but I did get the update pushed as soon as I turned my phone on for the first time.

is there anyway to go back to 1.13.516 software? after the update ive been having bluetooth issues....seen here.
after the update i have a major problem......bluetooth resets the wireless radio.......whenever bluetooth is on my radio bars go to a red X then starts back up. The bluetooth also resets......it will do this about every 45 seconds if the bluetootb stays on......anyone else having this problem?.....btw this just started after the update BTW, ive done 3 hard reset hoping that was the issue but it wasnt....verizon CC suggests taking it to a retail store but i had going in there.....any suggestions
Doing a factory should do that as it should reset it to factor rom stored in bootloader. Then ignore the update.
However keep in mind they claim that the update helps fix the screen flicker issues.

ive gone 3 hard resets and it does not put it back to the original rom
Only way to do this is to wait for someone to post it, so far I have not been able to locate it, but eventually (hopefully soon enough) someone will post it.
You might try and go into recovery and do a factory reset from there, I was having some other troubles and found that doing it that way helped tremendously.

Yea i've done a factory wipe....didn't help
I need to do this too. I've only had my X for a short 12 hours, but this update has really hosed things up. I've notice:
- wireless causes imstability: (random reboots,slow response times, system and phone not responding to anything)
- connectivity issues: even in 3G areas web and market fail and need to be restarted. With 1x connectivity txt messages wont go through.
- general instability: screen unresponsive or buttons on screen looking as if they're presses but nothing happens. Cannot wake phone from standby.

So,i found that it was the exchange sync that was really hurting everything. I changed from push sync to every 15 min. I haven't tried wifi yet. But my battery life and overall speed have improved significantly.

Factory reset on any android phone does not change the ROM version.

yeah try a diff headset
I just got my z1 and it's having trouble holding a Wifi signal for any period of time unless it's right next to my router. Even if I close the door I lose my signal. I'm running 4.3 and was wondering if there's any way I can check to see if I have faulty hardware?
Thanks

Yeah, I posted in another thread about I saw about the issues, and its at the point where wifiis not working at all. No networks in the area are show, and if they are, then only for a split second. Not sure why seeing as how I am on stock 4.3 no root. I decided to do a factory reset in the middle of writing this message. Everything is working fine now, so far.
Ok so, if I do a factory reset it should all be ok? I have a question, I just got this phone set up the way I like it, wallpaper, apps, folders, widgets, etc. I dont wanna have to do all that **** again so is there any way I can do a factory reset and back my phone up so that when I restore it comes out exactly how I left it?
So you can do backup several ways including the built in backup app, which I originally used. The problem is when I restored the backup, I started experiencing the same issues as before. I just did another reset and things are working normal for now.
I've updated each of the Sony apps with a restart and wifi switch off between each app to make sure it wasn't any of them. So far so good, so believe it was something in my settings back up. Clueless as to what though.

Hi all,
Since i've updated to Kitkat 4.4.2, everytime i make a phone call, the speakerphone automatically turns on? I've restarted the phone, checked my settings etc but can't see anything that would auto switch it on?
Please help, rather annoying
Thanks,
Same here. Please help before this phone has an untimely death.
Also here.
Anyone tried resetting phone? I remember I had some issues past time I updated and was told to reset it and then the issues were sorted.
When you say reset do you mean restart? I have restarted my phone and completely powered it off and back on with no luck.

I mean factory reset, the person on the phone last time told me that something might not have installed properly when I updated.
I will give it a try today.
Same, will do it when I get home, see if that works.

Have also had this issue, tried wiping/restarting and a whole host of things, nothing has worked. Also having a similar issue where my phone keep activating my cars bluetooth for no obvious reason, which may be related.
Today I have made a factory reset and after them I have installed my Rom again and the turning on off the speaker it's gone for me now. I hope it will gone also in the future.

Fix for Random ON Speakerphone
I think I've found a solution to this problem.
After getting repeatedly (and what seemed to be randomly) assaulted by my speakerphone I noticed something when quickly glancing at the screen when the issue occurred. It seemed to be happening when my phone discovered wi-fi, via Network Notification. I went into Settings, Wi-Fi Advanced Settings, and unchecked "Network notification" and "scanning always available". I have not had the speakerphone problem since.
My phone has been randomly rebooting about once every two days. I'm completely stock, not rooted. In the middle of the night last night while it was plugged in it rebooted about 4 times in a row, so I shut it off then restarted it in the morning. It's been doing fine so far today. I can't figure out how to reliably reproduce the reboots so I don't know how to go about testing whatever is causing it. It doesn't seem to be caused by any actions I perform (it's happened while I'm using the phone as well as while it's completely idle) Any suggestions? I know there's not much useful info to go off of here...
I keep sending the crash reports to HTC but I don't know what to look for in them. Anybody know how to interpret the crash logs?
Had one this morning. Rooted, but no changes.
And it just happened again. Phone was just sitting there with the screen off... I tried to copy and paste the error log but it wouldn't let me select all the text. The only app I have running in the background usually is Twilight. I'm going to try uninstalling that and seeing if it helps. The problem is the reboots happen randomly so I can't really tell if anything I change actually has an effect! Yarggghhh.
EDIT: Managed to get the error log here: http://pastebin.com/Xynv9qMP
Tried rebooting into Safe Mode, then a factory reset. Neither worked so I exchanged the device at a Sprint store. Hope this one works better!

How did it go? I have the same issue on my international version.
Completely fixed it. I don't have insurance but was able to exchange it within Sprint's return period. My new phone works great

Hey all. I'm running a rooted version of the android 5.0 of2 update. Everything was working fine for a few days when suddenly my wifi turned off and will not turn back on. It only shows the hollow green light that says it's turning on but never actually does
I tried using the tutorial fix to get it to work. I even wiped and factory restored my phone several times but to no avail. Any solutions would be much appreciated!
