Wifi broken - how to fix?
Hi,
I've rooted my phone and now wifi will not turn on. If not for the fact that I must have wifi working so I am not charged for the *extensive* roaming I do, I'd not say anything. Alas, it's a *big* problem for me.
First, I tried the unified toolkit method to root. It was successful, but this is where I first found wifi not working. I went back to factory install, but still had no wifi. So, I opted to try your method (from your qbking site at how-to-root/root-samsung-galaxy-s-iii), which worked beautifully and I am rooted right now, but still no wifi.
I really hope you've encountered this and have a fix! If not, there's tons of us noobs out there looking for how to get around this problem. Maybe it should be added to the FAQ once found?
Thanks!
