Ok, have 230nu no wifi/bluetooth you can switch in settings on, but it will sit there greyed out for a couple of seconds then turn back off(both wifi/bluetooth). I have searched posts everywhere an have not seen anybody get past this problem.
Anyway reflowed the logic board and and the wifi bluetooth are now functioning. should you have this problem be cautioned that you could possibly damage the board with heat. good luck.
 
Hi, I'm having this issue with my t230nu, can you provide some more details please? Where on the logic board is the wifi/bluetooth chip located?
 
I have attached a photo to show where the WIFi chip is. Lift the metal cover to find it. You can find the chip online by searching, "WiFi Chip Samsung Tab 4 T231". The chip number is listed as W8887SAO.

Kind regards
Chris
