It's pretty much impossible to "brick" your wifi chip. You just need to reflash, as the software that controls wifi isn't touched when you do a data wipe.

Just grab the fastboot images and flash it. It should be fine after that.

I tried the reflash last night and it didn't work. From googling the issue, it's apparently not uncommon with the Nexus devices on 4.2.1.

just flashed CM 10.1



I got an S2 but I don't really feel the need to upgrade just yet. At all. shyt is butter smooth and does everything I need it to. Plus this aftermarket extended battery has my screen time at 5 hours plus. Figured eventually the hardware would become dated and start lagging but it's actually so fluid that I underclocked to get even better battery life. GSDG til the death of me

Don't got it...they did say if I took it to a Sprint store and they couldn't fix it, I'd only have to pay the restocking fee (50 bucks). I might try and scam and do it that way, keep my phone, and then flip the old phone when Google fixes the issue in an update.

They are gonna want the old phone back. Smh. Besides you could sell it immediately after they fix it. People aren't gonna test out wifi when they buy it.

32gb of internal storage? But i thought cloud was the solution? Why u need phone storage if thats the case? Nexus 4 only has 16 or 8. Stop fronting.

You do realize that Samsung sells the most Android devices by a large margin and they put SD Card Slots in just about all their phones...
