Constant crashes after firmware update

Hi guys, I just updated to the new version through Kies. As soon as my phone booted and I exited lock screen, a lot of popups of processes that crashed show up. This includes android.process.acore, com.google.processes.gapps, Daily Briefing, calendar... pretty much everything shows up and I don't have access to anything on the phone. Apparently usb debug got back on so I can't get kies to recognize the phone.
I have a contract-free galaxy s from germany. Rooted. Uninstalled ryans lag fix through market before upgrading. I don't know what I did wrong.
What can I do? Thank you very much!

Try a factory reset. It will wipe your phone.

Just did a factory reset via recovery mode. Did not solve the problem. Weird thing: How can it still know remember what's my lockscreen password if it was factory reset?

Have the same problem here... Before Factory reset the phone was stuck at the Big S, after reset, it started, I could enter my pin and then the force closes started
Now downloading firmware and hope restoring via Odin will work. Luckily downoad mode still works

Hey mate can you please provide links of firmware you are using and odin? Please report if you have sucess too. Thanks!

Go into the phone settings, manage applications, Choose GMail, clear the data. Go back and choose GMail Storage and choose to clear that data. Try to force a sync.
Then reboot the phone.

I can't do anything on my phone mate, the popups won't stop showing up
thanks for the link

tried flashing directly from ODIN, now it got even worse
error is at booting
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110 (invalid argument) E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA
Help? I have tried with 512.pic and 803.pic, both failed

Aww, that's bad.
Here all went well. Used Odin to flash back to the original FW I had installed (XXJF3), then used kies to go again to JM2 and just finished installing Froyo
Now to get all my apps back. Hopefully Titanium Backup does what it promises

restore apps only, do not restore settings, else it will crash or cause other weird problems

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S 2.2 update - Plagued with ‘force close’ messages.

So basically, I registry hacked my PC so that I could update using the official 2.2 update in Kies for the Galaxy S.
Since I updated it, the phone has come unusable. Whenever it boots up I am plagued by force close messages (calendar storage, media, memo etc.).
I’ve tried getting into safe mode and hard resetting it. I can’t get either of these menus up. Tried holding down [vol down] key and pressing the power button, it just boots as normal when I do this.
Anyone have any ideas what’s wrong here?

I have the same problem as well, except that I am in a Scandinavian country. I did remove the lagfixes, and the only thing left was the rooting. I heard that the USB disconnected and reconnected in Windows under the firmware upgrade. When the smartphone was booted up, it still appeared to be 2.1-update1. So I did a hard reset, and that's where it begun to be softbricked with all the looping crash messages ("The process X has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."), which are the following processes:
android.process.acore
com.sec.android.app.twlauncher
com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider
com.cooliris.media
com.android.calendar
com.sec.android.widgetapp.infoalarm
com.android.phone

you have to hold down both [vol down] + [start] and then press the power button to start the phone in download mode. [vol up] + [start] and power to get into recovery mode. in all there are three buttons involved which have to be pressed all together. [start] is the big one on the front side of the Galaxy btw.
I had similar problems with the Kies update. So i wiped it clean, installed an old 2.1 version with odin and then installed on of the modifed 2.2 version from the development section here, also with odin. Now it works like a charm and with OCLF blazingly fast too.

I am experiencing the same problems...
how would i go about wiping the phone clear and back to the 2.1 version?
i only got the phone the other day and can barely use it now!
cheers

Guys i didnt wanted to open up a new thread so ill go ahead with my problem here.
The question is about the Kies Registry Patcher so i can force Kies to show me the 2.2 update.
My native country is Macedonia, and i can see two options to pick from with the Kies registry patcher for my country. One of them is the current versions i have on my phone and its representing the 2.1 update 1 android version.
To what 'Spoof Product Code As' i should set the registry patcher considering my location to get the proper update for my phone ?

Have you tried click settings on your phone then privacy then factory reset that should solve it

Well, I had the same issue and here is what I did. I'm in Canada (not sure which thread my phone falls under as our Vibrant is not the same as the U.S. one) and my provider is Bell Canada. Well...what I did was this; I saw the update out there, so I connected through Kies, ran the update and waited nervously for it to boot. After it did boot, I got several Force Close errors, so I rebooted it. It came up more easily the second time. After it got done it's card scanning and crap, it was ready to go. BUT...I started getting random Force Close errors with different apps. I simply could not use ANY email app other than the GMAIL one itself, they just kept crashing. Handcent crashed too, but with a reboot would work. Well...this just didn't seem right as a college of mine did his at the same time and was working fine. So, today I did this; I copied ALL my useful data off the internal SD onto my external SD and then removed that external SD card. Then I formated the interal SD. Then I went and did a factory reset. After that, my phone worked perfectly! I put my external SD card back in and all is good now. Haven't had one error since. Now, before I did this, I'd get at least 1-2 Force closes per hour but I re-did my phone up about 3 hours ago now and like I said, no errors.
Maybe try this before you update:
1: Save old data off of Internal SD
2. Remove External SD card (just to be safe)
3: Format Internal SD card
4: Apply Froyo update
5: Reinsert External SD card upon completion and sucessfull reboots
6: Part-tay!!!!!

Just make sure you do a cache wipe and a user settings wipe.....you should have already backed up your stuff so worst case you will just have to reinstall everything. HOLD down Volume UP button, Home button and power button all at once, it will boot into recovery mode, use the volume rockers to select wipe cace and then use them to wipe the user settings, reboot and should be good.

[Q] Constant force close after factory reset

I have a Bell Vibrant. Voodoo Lagfix and rooted.
I unapplied the lagfix by creating a folder inside the Voodoo folder called "disable lagfix". Then rebooted the phone. After the lengthy disable process, the phone booted back up. I then went into settings and formatted the Internal SD card.
Then I rebooted the phone, went into 3 button recovery mode, and did a factory reset and cache wipe.
Now when the phone boots back up, it still detects the voodoo lagfix. Then boots up but all I get are constant force close. I can't do anything in the phone other than continually press the force close button.
In particular, it loops between com.google.process.gapps and android.process.media
What can I do to get my phone working again?
Thanks!

I had this same problem on monday, to fix it i used the REGEDIT trick on kies to make it think it was an older version of firmware, and reflash the latest firmware on kies. Now everything is fixed and working well.

How did you get Kies to recognize the phone, without being able to select Kies mode when attaching USB cable to the phone?

I patiently went to do another factory reset through the privacy settings tab, took like 5 minutes of advancing when there was a short gap before another fc popped up. Once that was done, the force closes slowed down enough that I could connect it to kies. took patience but eventually I got it working

Same problem here. Re-flashed with Odin.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

[Q] a problem after installed new ROM (Froyo 2.2)

I installed it yesterday via Kies. after finished, it told me to reboot then I did, When I turned on the phone, it just started as normal with flashing S logo.
10-15 seconds later the screen turned black and the menu and back buttons lights on with a vibration sometimes.
I just cant use 3 buttons to get into any modes or use CMD to get into it. I just bought it last week and never installed any ROMS in it.
Any help, please?

I've had some issues after Kies upgrade... my apps kept crashing and not responding. I think I even had the same problem like you. All I did is a factory reset. Go to Settings -> Privacy and under Personal Data you'll find Factory data reset. Try it. Be carefull before doing a factory reset, try backup your data (phonebook, contacts, messages etc.) Hope it helps

I cant even get into the phone. got stuck at the logo..

the phone will auto reboot... how come you have to reboot it yourself?

Sprint Galaxy tab UID inconsistances won't go away even after reset and odin stock

I have a Sprint Galaxy tab and am getting a UID inconsistency error and it makes everything crash. I have tried doing a factory reset and even restoring using ODIN but the phone reverts back to before I did anything. Nothing gets erased and I still have the same errors. What can I do? I tried flashing CM9 but it says that encryption was unsuccessful and that the tablet needs to be reset but it just keeps booting to that screen. Even if I install an app or delete an app, when I power of the Tab and turn it back on the apps are as they were before I did anything. What can I do?
