This works as of android 7 1 1  non-rooted  adb shell am start -a android intent action MAIN -n com android settings  wifi WifiSettings  amp  amp  adb shell input keyevent 23  amp  amp  adb shell input keyevent 23   This will launch the activity and then send the DPAD center keyevent   I added another DPAD center as an experiment to see if you can enable it in the same way

Simple way to switch wifi on non-rooted devices is to use simple app   public class MainActivity extends Activity         Override     public void onCreate Bundle savedInstanceState            super onCreate savedInstanceState           setContentView R layout activity main           WifiManager wfm    WifiManager  getSystemService Context WIFI SERVICE           try               wfm setWifiEnabled Boolean parseBoolean getIntent   getStringExtra  wifi                catch  Exception e                      System exit 0             AndroidManifest xml    lt uses-permission android name  android permission CHANGE WIFI STATE    gt    ADB commands     adb shell am start -n org mytools config  MainActivity -e wifi true   adb shell am start -n org mytools config  MainActivity -e wifi false

I can just do   settings put global wifi on 0 settings put global wifi scan always enabled 0   Sometimes  if done during boot  i e  to fix bootloop such as this   it doesn t apply well and you can proceed also enabling airplane mode first   settings put global airplane mode on 1 settings put global wifi on 0 settings put global wifi scan always enabled 0   Other option is to force this with   while true  do settings put global wifi on 0  done   Tested in Android 7 on LG G5  SE  with  unrooted  stock mod
