So I haven't had a problem at all with my WiFi..but all of a sudden today, my WiFi button has been turning itself on and off..I didn't think much of it until the WiFi button decided to stop working completely?!? It just won't turn on..I've tried loads of things to help this and I just feel like I'm now at a lost cause 😭 anyone have any advice? In the picture I have provided, it says its turning on, but it stays like this and then turns off 😭

Hey Jaz, sorry for the late reply, I've only just got in. If wi-fi is still switching off, then I'd just factory reset the phone. Back up any important data if needed. After the reset, don't install any backups or any apps, just leave it as stock. Monitor wifi behaviour. If fixed, then you may start to add back all your apps and data. If not fixed, then reach out to Samsung support.

Gotta ask everyone having this issue that hasnt been fixed yet drop the phone or have any cracks or damge to the back or  anywhere else. It has to be a herdware issue. Id like to fix it but i have yet to find out a real solution b4 tearing it apart. Same issue started 5mos ago. Literally tried every option samsung will give you. Tried the above mentioned ones several times and many many other ways too difficult to explain, still nothing. Had to get a new phone s23 fe. Sm-g990u1/ds

Also mobile hotspot and wi-fi direct/smart view hasn't worked since the exact same time the wifi just won't turn on. BT has been giving me issues on/offline too.

This won't work either. I went as far as to repeatedly tap the intelligent Wi-Fi 6.0.0 like developer options works to get the connectivity labs option to appear underneath and that won't even fix it. No solution other than to tear it apart unless somebody has miraculously figured this and tried something new not yet discovered. Never had this issue since the s series was born. Had almost all since. Irritating

I believe this is a hardware defect.  For us, we have the same symptoms, but only when the fold is open.  In the closed position, the wifi/bluetooth chip typically works.  Repeatedly, I can open the phone ~80% of the way, and between 80-100% open, wifi disconnects and cannot scan just like the screenshot in OP.

For you, the cable might be fully broken if it doesn't work in either position
