Hi, I was using my phone on 5.0.4 I believe (either that or 5.0.2) and then an app crashed unexpectedly, so I restarted my phone. While restarting it never got past the red dot with white circle animation, so I did a factory reset through the stock recovery and that didn't work either. I then did all kinds of stuff I found from other forums and finally flashed the stock 4.5.14 Nougat OOS from another thread using the MSM downloader tool, which let me start up the phone past the bootloop. However, the Wifi doesn't turn on at all, and every time I try to use any version of OOS beyond Nougat it bootloops again. I tried installing a few custom ROMs and they bootloop as well. What can I do? I would like to fix the Wifi on my nougat version of OOS, as a first priority, but if I can somehow fix the bootlooping issue on Oreo OOS then I'm sure the wifi will be fixed as a side-effect.

I also tried a bunch of things to fix the wifi, including deleting modemst files (didn't work) and flashing modem firmware which ended up causing the animation bootloop again. Please help!
