G'day all 
Well, my Tab crashed a few nights in a row to the Samsung logo. The final time it would not get past this logo at power on.
Thus I tried a factory reset, but still it was stuck at the logo.
Finally I tried a Kies firmware update, which brought it back to life, sort of.
Now, I can't format the internal SD card. Nor can I install any apps as they claim there's no space - so it appears that both the internal SD partition and the Applications(?) partition have become read-only.
I can install apps to the SD card via an APK, but on reboot they are size 0kb.
I can't sell it since I can't wipe my stuff from it.
Any suggestions? Or is it mostly dead. (Can still use camera, media player, clock, etc. but not email, internet.)
