[Q]Galaxy GT-P1000 Issues - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 WiFi running Samsung upgrade Gingerbread 2.3.3. Sim Card 32GB Std 10.
Kies does not do back up, fails everytime. Cannot use Compass in any form ! Guidance needed
Have not rooted before.
So based on advice to be received, need to back up, Root and install new ROM. Then get rid of unwanted Samsung Apps (Anything else to get rid off ? ) Memory management is a big problem , using Ram manager under Task Manager helps a little bit and NQ Mobile, but constantly need to reboot. RAM runs at ave. 395 MB out of 440.
Help and/or tell me where to go appreciated. Android Authority gives incomplete instructions and no feedback to Users Problems !!

[Q] Server returns 403, firmware upgrade fails

Hello,
A collegue is running Android 2.1 on her Galaxy S. I believe it has the codename GT-I9000. She is currently running firmware version PDA:JF3 / PHONE:JF3 / CSCJF1.
Since Samsung released their Froyo update some while ago and it is believed that Froyo significantly increases the performace. This is a stock installation. The phone isn't rooted.
When I connect the phone to Samsung Kies (2.0) it reports that there is a new version, like it is supposed to be. Screenshot here.
However, when I initiate the upgrade the process fails at Downloading (0%) and reports that the server returned '403 Forbidden'. Samsung fails to respond for more information about this message.
I'm hoping that someone here knows a way to possibly fix this altough this seems like a server-side error. If not, is there a way to manually upgrade the phone without losing contacts, media and installed applications?
Thank you in advance;
Jorijn

Samsung Galaxy S - backing up and updating firmware issues - Please Help!

Hi
I have a Samsung Galaxy S and I want to back it up and update it to the latest version of software.
I have download Kies, but when I load it, the Firmware Information area says the following:
"This version of the devive cannot be updated"
"Current firmware version: PDA:JF3/PHONE:JF3/CSC:JE5 (ORA)"
I have tried Googling for an answer and tried Samsung's useless support area on their website but cannot find a solution.
Can anyone help? I seem to be able to backup my contacts, but not apps, or upgrade the software version.
I have various glitches and bugs when using my phone that I would hope this software would iron out. These include, phone not loading some apps, screen freezing, blank screen appears and only way to reset is to take battery out, loses connection to SD card so wont load gallery, wont allow an extra Google account to be added...
It seems to have some serious problems. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Thanks for this
Why would there not be an update of Android for the Galaxy S? There has been news about it being out so this doesnt make sense.
Thanks for the other link - looks far too complicated for me to start tinkering with this. Is there no other way for me to get an update?
Do you know anything about how to back up apps?
Wont a factory reset clear everything I have on the phone, so I will lose everything?
Thanks

I said and Kies says no update for your branded phone whoever you bought it from has not yet updated the firmware .
Pointless now as 2.3 due for release soon .

yes

I think Im unfortunate enough to have one of the first batch of Orange UK Galaxy S's which have issues with the Kies software and are, according to Orange "un-updateable".
Samsung are working on a fix but its a Kies issue apparently.
If I factory reset, I will lose everything. I have backed up contacts, I can sort images, videos ect easily, but how do I back up apps? There is no option for this in Kies?

[Q]problem updating firmware via Kies

So i heard about the 2.3.3 updated for the tab and i decided to check via kies
And knowing (from my SGS) that i have to update first with the old update to get the latest i decided to do that (the one from January or something)
But when i try i get an Error Saying that Kies could not be administrator permission from the Tab
Is this a known problem?
PS: anyone know how to change the language in Kies? i would prefer it in english because it makes it easier to describe problems
some users over at swedroid have some issues with sgs. no solution yet
Sorry. not allowed to post link
So i changed computers (usually do kies updates on my laptop) and its working fine
currently half way though the firmware update
Unable to update via Kies as well
I am getting the same message. States that I do not have the permission of the P1000 device administrator.
Was trying to update an unlocked Euro P1000, using the newest version of Kies and Windows 7 Premium. Also tried to use my XP to do the same, gets stuck on the screen after hitting the update button, or comes back with an "unknown error."
I hate Kies, but am would rather not root and bootload as I'm selling this in the next month or so.
Think I am moving away from Samsung. Love their hardware (have a Galaxy S and Tab), but hate their support and software updating.
Hello,
I can only suggest you to look at Overcome rom in the developers section.
There is an amizing guide explaining you step by step how to upgrade your tab and at the end you'll have a much better 2.3.3 rom than Samsung stock one.
If you still want only Samsung rom stop the update process when it says to install Overcome and you'll end-up with a very clean rooted stock 2.3.3
best solution seems to be a clean install of Kies. Uninstall, clean registry, download new from samsung, install. Kies must be center of gravity when it comes to bugs :/

GT-i9000 Suddenly slow, apps force close, contacts etc lost. Help please.

G'day everyone.
The phone is an Optus (Australia) Galaxy S which is running 2.2.1 Froyo XXJPY Kernal Version 2.6.32.9
It has suddenly gone really slow and all widgets, games and apps will not work and when trying to run any of them, the phone vibrates and shows a message saying it has stopped unexpectedly and to close it.
When using the phone, it sometimes gets the following message...
The application AdService (proces.com.sec.android.appsecad) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. With a FORCE CLOSE button.
Which is the same format as the other error messages she mentioned.
The phone restarted yesterday to find that it has wiped out all contacts and saved stuff in the Memo program and all favourite apps were gone from the home screen.
I've been asked to help with this, but I'm finding the solution very confusing.
Edit - She is happy for me to update it to a newer, stable version, but I'm unsure about doing that from the current version as I am not tech savy.
Advice on upgrading from 2.2.1 would be much appreciated.
Thanks everyone!

this is normal for Froyo. when i was on 2.2.1 had similar problems ( had to restart every 2,3 days and there's was another problem, system wouldn't pass s logo and i couldnt save programs etc. , then my csc was unknown.) every 2,3 weeks it needed hard reset etc.
try using different firmware.

When changes won't stick, it is a sign that your internal NAND chip is going bad.
You may find many similar thread about it.
