    I was having a problem with my wifi on my at&t s4. I read in a forum to rename the file but I accidentally deleted it. Is there any way to get this back.

    Welcome to Android Central! I'm not sure what wi-fi file you might be referring to. Do you mean you had a folder called "Wi-fi" that had some files or data in it? Or did you delete some wi-fi configuration file? What sort of problem did you encounter after this accidental delete?

    Hi B. Diddy. Thanks for the response. I don't exactly remember what the wifi file was that I was trying to rename, but after I deleted it, my wifi won't turn on. Now my wife wants to get rid of her iPhone, and I have a great s4 for her but it is useless with no wifi! Will installing stock firmware work? Again, thanks for your response and any help you can give me.

    Since you're planning on giving the phone to your wife, I would just do a factory reset, which should correct the issue. Unless your wife shares your Google account with you, she won't be able to use the same apps that you have.

    Right know I'm downloading Odin to install stock firmware. My phone was rooted, so I'm gonna try that. Factory reset did nothing. That's where I'm at now! Fingers crossed!

    So the wi-fi switch doesn't even turn on? Is it greyed out? Or does it switch on, then switch off again?

    You flashed the entire ROM? That would have replaced the file you deleted. Make sure it's the ROM for SGH-I337, and follow [Samsung] How to flash Stock ROM via ODIN. After the phone reboots, do a factory reset.
