Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet (SGP521) Wifi and Bluetooth problem

Hi all,

About a month or so ago I started to experience issues with with the Wifi and Bluetooth on my tablet.

At this stage I'm unable to switch on the Wifi or the Bluetooth. I'm only able to to use the cellular connection. When you try and enable the wifi connection is shows that it's trying to scan for a network, but it actually never switches the Wifi on. At times it actually pauses for a few seconds after selecting the Wifi option. Then at times it just doesn't do anything when trying to activate the Wifi via the quick pull down menu.

From what I have read it appears to be a hardware problem, but then I also saw comments that it might just be a software issue.

I was rooted at one stage and in my desperation I did a OTA update to the latest 5.1.1 release to see if that will help, but it did not.

When I was rooted I did a factory reset via TWRP, but that also did not work.

My device isn't under warranty anymore so RMA isn't really an option.

However I would like to check with the community if there is anyone else who had this issue and managed to get it fixed.

Is it a hardware or software problem or even a bit of both?
Would one be able to possibly replace the WIFI and Bluetooth radio in the Z2?

I normally use the Z2 for media consumption whilst at home over the wifi connection and would like to see if it can be fixed without costing an arm and a leg.

Your help or suggestion will be appreciated.
