The wifi does not turn on, why?

Check your bootloader. You should be on OK1 if you followed the OP install directions.

If you need the OK1 stock tar, you'll find it here:

But there is a bootloader and baseband thread in development forum but stock tar is recommended, especially if you're coming from Marshmallow.

The wifi does not turn on, why?

How did you install the rom? Here is what I did, and will repeat some of what is in the op.

1) If coming from another rom, do a factory reset 3 times first.
2) Wipe cache dalvik cache, system data next 3 times
3) Format data 3 times
4) Odin full stock tar OK1
5) run through the set up
6) install TWRP again, but do not root.
7) repeat steps 1 and 2 . Even if you did not install anything during set up.. I find that if you do not do this, you will have issues..
8)Flash rom and nothing else, keep stock kernel
9) When done do not reboot, pull battery and hold power button in for 20 secs
10) Put battery in and reboot.
11) Once it comes to the welcome screen, make sure you have at least the cell signal triangle showing. If no LTE Turn off WIFI, if LTE shows up for a sec, then goes away turn WIFI back on. If LTE shows again, and stays let it sit for 3 min before you complete your set up. During set up, do not connect to a WIFI network just yet.
12) Finish set up. If you get a "Google Play Services Stopped" ignore it..
13)Once you are all set up, go to play store first to see if it loads, it might take a couple of minutes.
14) Once play stores loads, close it and go to Setting> System Update and do a PRL update.. If it says no PRL update no worries your up to date. Do a Profile update, and after that you should be done.. You DONT have to do a Reactivation as sprint already knows you have the phone.

I had issues when I first tired this rom, and left it for a few weeks.. Went back made sure I did everything right, and now it works great, and I do not plain of updating again to MM or any Note 7 Roms.

I'm trying to go back to stock no root ROM and I used the OK1 tar file. For some reason I think I soft bricked it because it won't load and shows the little android icon with it's stomach open where you can see the inner workings. I don't know what it's called. It said it passed so I don't know where the issue is. Has anyone gone to another ROM and if so would you so kindly point me in the right direction? Thanks! :good:

Edit: I let it run it's course after the 11th time and I finally got past that android icon I was talking about. I turned it on and now it's good. Not sure what happened.

Edit: Never mind I can't get into recovery.

If you flash stock tar, the initial boot will make a brief visit to stock recovery before booting system.

If you wiped your data, the initial boot won't take long but if you didn't, the user applications must be optimized and the boot takes several minutes depending on the amount of apps and how cool the phone is running during this time.

You say you got past that but now cannot get to recovery? Well, stock recovery has that falling down Android with open belly you describe and you can't do much with stock recovery but OTA update or wipe caches or factory reset. Maybe you're accustomed to custom recovery like TWRP? You'd have to Odin that.

To reach stock recovery with stock ROM, you'd have to power down or pull battery and use three button press hold of vol+, home plus power button until phone vibrates.

Maybe you're OK if that works? Your goal is met, right? However, unless you want updates or constant reminders, you should disable auto update.

Yeah that's what was happening, it would try to go to the stock recovery. I wiped everything even internal sd card. Once the stock rom took I used Smart Switch to update my phone. After that everything is good. Now I just want stock rooted and I'll be happy with that.

I can't seem to install TWRP. It fails when I use Odin to install it.

I found out that I had reactivation lock enabled. Once I disabled it everything was good. I get the occasional random reboot but it's not as bad as before and I don't get stuck in download mode.
