Galaxy Tab reader Hub, flashed firmware... - Galaxy Tab General

So I did the euro flash, to enable calls.... tab has been working great....but if I try to go to the reader hub, and click update.... it looks like it is working, then it double vibrates and comes up with that force close box....
Any ideas or suggestions?
thx

My Galaxy S experience and Problems

Hi,
I want to first start by saying I really like my phone. I came from a Iphone 3G and just love the fact the SGS is so easily customisable and I can have widgets etc on my home screen.
Now to the things I don't like and if anyone can help I'd most appreciate it.
1) Samsung Kies. No matter what I try I can't get my phone to connect to Kies. When I first installed Kies it connected fine etc, but now I either get the mtp screen crashing or it just says connecting device and won't go any further.
I have tried solutions such as formatting my internal sd card, removing cache but nothing seems to work
2) GPS. I'm not sure I even have GPS. I can go into maps and it can pinpoint my location. However if I go to Google Nav it plans the route but then just says searching for GPS and doesn't get any further. I used to get a satellite symbol at the top of the phone sometimes but I don't even get that anymore.
3) Lag. Opening aps etc is fine, but if anyone calls me or I get a text, the phone wakes up and then takes about 5 seconds sometimes longer to either show a text message or show that someone is calling me so I can answer.
If anyone can help with these problems I'll be extremely happy. I'd like to try to upgrade to the latest version of the SGS software via Kies as it may solve some of the above problems but I can't connect to Kies.
Thanks for reading and any advice would be great.
Someone mentioned before about turning off haptic feedback, as it seems the phone takes a short time to kick the motor into action before it does whatever on screen (menu/keyboard/etc). I tried this and it does seem more responsive, so might be worth turning phone vibrate off. Not an ideal situation, but might be less annoying than waiting for the screen to respond when a call/text arrives.
As for GPS, have you accidentally turned it off? there's an option to disable it entirely, in which case any navigation apps would use phone mast triangulation.
KIES... *ugh* don't get me started on that, I had to re-install as the update didn't work, then had to reboot my machine a few times, turn off Launcher Pro, launch KIES manually and then it would work. I now only rely on it for firmware updates, it's useless for everything else.
I don't have vibrate on, is there another way I can turn off haptic feedback?
Also re turning off GPS? do you mean the use gps satellites in my location sources as that is turned on.
Yeah kies drives me up the wall. I just don't understand why I can't get it to sync. It recognises it in other modes just not samsung Kies mode.

1) top left hand corner of the kies application, there is a drop down which allows you to reover drivers, (or words to that effect). Try that. If it does'nt work. Locate and donwload the package of USB drivers, install and try again. if it doesnt work, recove drivers via kies again and it should work, it did for me.

Haptic feedback is under Sound and Display near the bottom of the list.
If you already have vibrate turned off for calls, not sure what the problem is then, sorry.
So you have use satellites ticked but the icon still doesn't show? go onto the marketplace and download the GPS test application, it's free and will show you your satellite signal strength, how many you can connect to, etc. If it doesn't lock onto any (while outside, not in a built up area with skyscrapers, or whatever) there might be a problem with your phone and you need to get it replaced.
yeah it seems I don't get any satellites. I used to but it seems my gps has just stopped working.
I'll try and call O2 business to see what they say.

Which firmware you using.. On mine, it happened on European JG1 -> JG5 firmware.. But all other firmware was fine
Is that my baseband version?
If so its I90000ADJF1
Re the satellites, yeah even after I reboot the phone.
I had GPS test on the phone before and used to get up to 8 I think, last night I got two when I left it on GPS test for a while, but even going outside today I get none. It says accuracny is 318.2 feet.
But it says 0 in view and 0 in use.

JF1 is ancient (it's from June). Check on Kies if there is an update available.
get the newest firmware possible
if that doesn't fix it, exchange your phone for a working one

Issues with my Android Watch functions when my phone is sleeping (screen off).

For me to use Google Now on my watch (ex. Ok Google - What is the weather forecast), it only works if the screen on my phone is on. Doesn't matter if it's on the home screen or the lock screen, the screen just can't be turned off (sleeping). If it's turned off (sleeping), Ok Google will open on my watch but cannot connect.
Another problem I noticed when my phone is sleeping (screen turned off), playing music on my phone and the music controls (volume and change track) on my watch does not work. As soon as I ctap the home key or the power button to turn on the screen (wake up), the music controls works perfectly! But a few seconds later when to phone sleeps (screen turns off), controls no longer works again.
Another issue I've noticed but maybe not related, my emails are not pushed to my phone. A few times, I opened my email apps and I needed to open them or refresh to see emails come in.
Something happens when my screen on my phone turns off (sleeps) but found nothing on the web and nothing in the phone settings.
Can someone help me?

PBK gestures not working.

Hi!
Got my Priv(stv100-4) yesterday,and after setting it up i realised that pbk gestures is not working.
It is enabled in settings,the phone has the latest updates and all blackberry apps are also updated. I also tried the "factory reset" several times.
Everything else is working perfect so i don,t see what causes this. Is there a setting somewhere that i am missing or did i just get a defective device?
If possible i would reflash the firmware,but haven,t found a way to do that.
Sombody have a good advise for me?
Was hoping to avoid sending it back for replacement...

If as you say it is enabled in settings, then it just has to work. Have you tried turning gestures off, restarting phone, then turning it back on?
Also you can try pressing VOL UP BUTTON and VOL DOWN BUTTON for at least 10 Second. Device should restart.
Thanks for replying.
tried both,and nothing happend.
guess i just have to send it back.
PKB gestures only work when using the Blackberry Keyboard, so if you installed say, the Google keyboard instead, and set it as the active input method, PKB gestures stop working. You have to use the Blackberry Keyboard as the active input method.
I wish it could be someting that easy,but i only have the blackberry keyboard installed

SideSync 4.0 Phone Screen Button Loading Nonstop

Hi, I'm new here.
I'm trying to make SideSync (version 4.3.0.92) work on my Samsung Galaxy J5 2016 and my laptop. My lappy is an ASUS X555LD running on Windows 10. I have SideSync installed on both gadgets, and I'm able to connect the two. I can see the dashboard which shows the "Phone screen" button, some app icons, the "More" button, the signal strength, etc.
I can add more apps on the dashboard, and even share my keyboard and mouse to my phone. However, I cannot make the phone screen appear on my laptop. When I click the button, it just tries to load non-stop -- the button's border goes in circles, like a loading icon. When I click on an app on the dashboard, this app opens on the phone, no prob. but nothing happens on the laptop. I've tried contacting Samsung but the representative is out of ideas too.
Has anyone else encountered this before?

Sadly, no. I gave up trying to get the two to sync. And no one's ever replied to this thread either.
