I did an update to the February Google security uodate on my fold 3 in Canada and it rrestarted and when it restarted my phone doesn't detect wifi SSIDs, can't connect to wifi at all. When j press the wifi quick settings Button it turns light blue, and then turns back to the wifi off state. I'm able to use my ceular data. But it doesn't detect any SSIDs, doesn't connect to saved SSIDs. I was wondering about doing a wifi and Bluetooth reset, but I had a question if doing that would make me unable to connect to my security cameras or if I would have to climb up a ladder and reset them all over again too. But I don't think I would have to now that I think about it

I read this is happening even for the fold 3. Which just happened to mine except mine cant detect ANY wifi networks at all. Although when I press the thing in wifi settings 8 times it turns on wifi labs and when I do that I'm able to connect to wifi for about a minute at most and the. The phone crashes and restarts and the wifi is unable to turn on or connect to anything.

Technically, in this case , it's better to reset the WiFi network and let the system set up the WiFi system again

My phone can't turn on wifi itself. It won't turn on to scan for any kind of wifi signal.

It looks like the wifi system is broken. Somehow, either wifi driver or FW. Please reset the wifi system and let the phone system reset up the wifi system again. Can you do that?

Then, can you try re-do the wifi network again. After that, if failure happens again, then..
Unfortunately, the last Google play system update somehow broken the phone system( mostly SW apps that cause wifi system corrupted ). And. It's very painful to reset your phone system back to the manufacturing setting and let the phone system re-update SW. Technically, maybe it's the better way to do so due to you having already tried wipping out cache partition and others, also you don't know what apps need to be repaired individually.

I haven't tried to boot my phone into safemode I guess I'll try that now. If that doesn't work, I think I'll try plugging into a computer and using the titan computer program to restore the software. I'm trying to think if I have a restore point I coukd use
