Hey everyone,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and recently ran into a major issue after a software update. I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if you found a fix.

⚠ The Issue:

Wi-Fi won’t detect any networks at all.

Bluetooth won’t turn on or find devices.

Mobile data still works fine, but Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are completely unresponsive.


🛠️ What I’ve Already Tried:

Basic Fixes:

Restarted the phone multiple times.

Tried Safe Mode (to rule out third-party apps).

Reset Network Settings.


Advanced Fixes:

Factory Reset (Settings > Reset).

Cleared Cache Partition in Recovery Mode.

Flashed official Samsung firmware using Odin (EUX/OXM firmware).


🚨 None of these have worked.

🔎 What I’ve Noticed:

Wi-fi can turn on but no available networks available (which is false, my tablet and other devices connect fine)

Bluetooth won’t turn on at all.

The issue started immediately after a software update, and I’ve already tried reinstalling the firmware.


🔹 Has Anyone Else Had This Problem?

I’m wondering if this is a known issue or if it might be a hardware failure. If you’ve had the same problem, did you manage to fix it?

Also, since I bought the phone refurbished, I’m not sure if Samsung would still offer a repair. Has anyone dealt with something similar?

Any advice or experiences would be really helpful! Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hello 👋 @Mank_Man 

You have performed most of the troubleshooting steps you can take. 👍

One I wouldn't have performed is the flashing of the software. 

If a diagnostic test does not show anything up in the Samsung Members App, then send feedback via your Samsung Members App to see if they can help. 

A Samsung Service Centre maybe able to help. 

May I suggest to perform a forum search as you may find already existing threads with help and advice within. 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎

Z fold 4 I have the same experience. No wifi, turns on but doesn't detect. Sees my sims chip but won't connect. It's basically a dead phone.  Also goes dead after opening fold. Will reboot after a while. Have performed factory reset without success. Just updated 3 days ago and troubles began Android 14 and UI 6.1.1. Desperately looking for a solution.

Update called Samsung. They've made a service ticket and I've sent it to Texas Service Center. Said it'll be 2 weeks to return.
