Nav J, you will have to provide us with a good image of your circuit board. U1000 and the rest of the WiFi circuitry are under the EMI shield just adjacent to your micros Sd and SIM card slot

Hi I have removed the shield , please confirm whether the shiny IC is wifi IC or not. Also on the another picture you may notice that one small connector is broken . Can you please tell me what is the use of that connector.?
