Stefan have you primed pump by filling the filter tube with water.,stop and open the top fill with water close and start pump
Air release valve for air trapped inside filter chamber
Intex 1000 GPH Easy Set Pool Filter Pump Instructional Guide 637R
The link has a set-up video for the 637R pump. Make sure water flows out of the air valve on the top of the filter cover. This will purge air out of the filter and prime the pump. Hope this helps you....

No, the pump should not be noisy. It sounds like you have picked up a foreign object in the pump housing. you may have to pull the face off to determine. OR the pump/motor is indeed defective and should be returned.
SOURCE: High ph, algea, salty taste
You are going to need to buy chemicals anyway (acid for sure and probably algaecide) so find a good pool store tech and have them test your water and recommend the proper doses.
In summary though, you should not taste the salt in the pool and being able to means the salt content is to high. Chlorine generators will not work if the salt is to high and the fix is to drain water and dilute the remaining water until the salt content is no higher than max. No chlorine could explain the algae.
Generators also cause the pH to rise over time so you will need to keep acid on hand to counteract that.

I'm just now setting up my Saltwater generator...so don't have your problem - yet! Local pool guy tho said with the saltwater systems you need to add dry acid to the pool almost weekly to keep the ph down. Sounds like what you're experiencing. The dry acid was cheap and came in small-ish containers, should last long time.
HTH.

unfortunately every thing you mentioned is not reaaly important.
Bottom line is that Intex has there own size hoses and prevents easy installation with other manufacturers.
You will need to make a trip to home depot and buy a basket full of fittings and keep trying till one works
