[Somewhat Resolved] LGG3 wifi and hotspot not working

[kjungleboy]

When I turn my wifi on, it does nothing. My hotspot doesn't work either. Problem started last week after I switched into airplane mode.

What I've tried:
-reboot phone
-cycle wifi and airplane mode
-clear cache and data for Android and Google processes
-reflash zv8 modem
-factory data reset
-wifi fixer android app

Nothing has worked so far. The only hardware change that i made was to replace the audio [headphone] jack and replace the battery with another brand new OEM battery.

LGG3 LS990
Sprint
Stock ZV8
Nova prime launcher
Stock kernel
Bumped and stumped
TWRP recovery

Any help would be appreciated.

I was able to resolve this issue. Apparently, there is an issue with the wifi and airplane mode on the lgg3 with lollipop 5.0. I found some other folks having the same issues on a t-mobile msg board.

What I did to resolve:

Turn wifi and wifi calling on.
Turn airplane mode on.
Long press wifi to view access points and wait for them to appear.
Disable airplane mode and select access point.
Problem solved.

In my case, it was absolutely a software issue. I will update if this issue returns.

Issue came back after an incoming call. Unable to get wifi back on using method stated previously. Still trying to mess with the phone.

Dangit.
