Samsung SM-T377A WIFI

[Android Central Question]

Not able to connect to the Wi-Fi. I have reset device back to the factory settings and still not able to recognize are asking for any type of Wi-Fi coming to connect to even update or do anything

Welcome to Android Central! Does this happen with any wi-fi network, or just your home network? If you take the device to your local library or coffeehouse and turn on wi-fi, do you see a list of nearby wi-fi networks?

I have the same issue, and cannot turn the wifi on. I have completed the factory reset, and cannot proceed with a new set up because the button to turn on wifi just hangs at "Turning on..." and goes nowhere.

Welcome to Android Central! Do you have the same device as the OP? Perhaps the wi-fi hardware has failed. You might have to bring it to a repair shop.

 

[galaxies4moi]

Yes, unfortunately the exact same device.

Hi, welcome to AC!
Have you tried factory reset in recovery once more?

 

[galaxies4moi]

I've tried the Wipe Cache partition, Reboot System Now, and finally a couple times of Factory reset.

You have strong wifi ?
Can you get past that wifi page?

 

[galaxies4moi]

Yes, strong wifi and other devices access no problem. This device does not even get beyond the "Turning on..." wifi button, and has the same results both at home and at work. The device cannot get beyond the above image, and there are no other gears or pulldowns to access anything else on the tablet at this stage. I can't get past that wifi page.

Only other thing to try is flash the firmware and see if that gets you going otherwise repair shop if you want to revive it.
