[Q] New Contacts / Changes to existing contacts cannot be saved - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
im running JPM on my international version I9000.
Whenever I try saving a new contact or try to save changes to an existing contact the phone gives an error saying "Contact cannot be saved" (I'm running on German language settings and that is what the corresponsing translation should look like).
I first started experiencing this problem when running JPK. Before updating to JPM via ODIN I ran the latest Eclair built giving me the same error. After the flash to JPM i did a wipe/factory reset from recovery.
I have the following accounts configured: Gmail, Whatsapp, Skype
I tried disabling the Whatsapp and Skype sync but couldn't solve the problem either.
thanks for your help!

I tried remove and add back the account via

anyone experience the same issue?

Same problem, only for My Space and Facebook. After this error I've add an Titter account and no errors. But can't add an Facebook or My Space account. I reinstalled another firmware, JM1, JPK but the same problem.
Same issue for me, restored to jm1 and doesnt work, this only started happening to me yesterday, i wonder if there is an issue at facebook or maybe with android?
Same here after flashed voodoo lag fix + reset to factory.

Clearly Samsung Galaxy S problem, none of MySpace, Facebook or Tweeter accounts doesn't work. When only MySpace and FaceBook accounts didn't work I've added a Tweeter account and it was ok. But after reflashing (thinked this will solve the problem), also Tweeter account didn't work anymore. Very frustrating. It's something related to SNSaccounts Service.
The same here.
Having the same problem here on my JPK, only started having the issue yesterday, reflashed today with JM1 but didnt fix it so flashed back to JPK. Can't sync any FB contacts into my contacts list. Says 'Login faild. Try later'
Also unable to receive any notifications through facebook for android.

Flashing a new firmware or upgrading through Kies never does a clean install. I was so frustrated that I've rooted my phone, entered system/app and deleted accountsync app and odex (first two files, don't remember exactly the names) and Snsaccount and Snsprovider apks and odexes. Contacts icon dissapeared and when I was accessing contacts through dialer always FC. Update to JM1 again through Kies and everything is ok now, SNS accounts works again.

Does anyone know how to solve it without deleting apks and flashing firmwares? I can't find any good information anywhere on this annoying issue.
On Doc JPO7.6.2, having this same issue as well... aiks...
google, seach, no solution yet.
Found this....
1. Log in to the desktop version of Facebook/Twitter/whatever the problem app is
2. Go to the application settings (Facebook: Account>Application Settings; Twitter: Settings>Connections)
3. Remove or Revoke the Samsung Mobile option from this list
4. Wait a couple of minutes, then try adding the account on your phone
let me know if it works...
mine still not working.. mayb need to wait longer...
What am I suposed to do?
Hi, everybody, my SGS has the same problem, but only related to the Orkut sync (Orkut is a social network from google, very popular in Brazil). I tried several ways to solve this problem, like wipe the phone and upgrade the rom with Odin (with re-partition e bootloader reinstall, using several roms, froyo and eclair) and nothing worked until I use a new orkut(google) account, and it worked, but now, suddenly (in fact, after I tried to root with z4root, but I instaled a new rom already, with re-partition) stops to sync, and the same message is displayed.
What am I suposed to do?
I'll try.

1- I use Odin whit re-partition already, but I´ll try this way. What do you think about?
2- There is some GT-I9000 clean install tutorial?

[Q] Official Froyo issues

Hi There
I updated my phone through Kies and got version: I9000XXJPM build FROYO.XWJP6
I did a factory reset so marked would appear and so I could start on a fresh.
Everything seems to be working okay, but my email client (not GMAIL), lags a lot, and I’m unable to delete mails using IMAP. When I delete a message and refresh, the mail just appears again. This worked on Android 2.1update1.
I tried to root my phone, hoping I could fix the lag issue, but I can’t make the 3 bottom download mode trick work. Then I looked at this fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785201 but got stock at step 5 and 6. I don’t know what to do and where.
Does anyone else have problems with the email client using exchange and imap? Can you guys delete imap messages?
And regarding the root issue: I only need this, so I can change my default homescreen to number 3, so if there’s a better way to do this, please help. And also if it can fix the email problems.
Thanks
-Michael
There is already a standalone thread about the issues after the official Froyo update just under this thread which you have just created...
Posting here now

[Q] Sync error after JVP flash

Hi,
I just flashed a stock JVP (pure stock, no custom kernel yet) but my Google account won't sync. I've done several re-flash with pit, factory reset but no luck.
I'm getting "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." but it's not back... Market is not working, GTalk says "bad password" (even though I know it's correct, I've done it several time again). So my SGS is pretty much useless now: no sync, no apps...
What can I do to fix that? Could it be linked to my Google account rather than my phone?

FC when add/modify contact

I am on stock ICS with LP9, rooted. Been using fine over a week with no FC etc. However notice that when I try to add a new contact, encountered FC. Same situation with contact editiing. FC happen when I am editing the name after the first keypress.
Appreciate any help to resolve this. At a last retort, may have to reflash.
Thanks
Anyone?
I have just try to flash back Lp9 using both Mobile Odin and PC Odin. Problem still persist. Contact FC every time I try to edit. Cannot add new contact.
Hope someone can help. Thanks
i have the same problem here..
try disable contact sync
setting - account n sync- gmail - disable contact

[Q] Contacts missing

Hi guys,
Yesterday i installed version 4.1.2 (nightly) and i have a couple of issues:
- Many contacts are missing. Loaded my Facebook and Google accounts but not all contacts where loaded
- I can't connect to Kies cause the phone only recognizes usb connection. I cant find the option i had before where i had 3 options (Kies, usb, developer). And since this happens i cant load my saved contacts
Ideas ??
CM10 never supported Kies. If you want to use kies you will need to use a rom based on stock rom, so no ics or jb roms.
