These are the ones kies v2 put in the driver folder. Its a exe that installs the drivers... at least it did for me

when i had a nexus s i was having driver issues too. i read a comment on androidcentral.com suggesting that by downloading and installing pdanet (http://pdanet.en.softonic.com/) the appropriate drivers would be installed. once i got it working i deleted the app and the drivers worked great

thank you very much for all of you.

Driver Issues

I just got the SGS2 today and am trying to connect with Odin, however the drivers won't install and the ones I got from Samsung's site aren't working. If it helps I'm using a virtual win 7 on a Mac.
I was able to get the correct drivers by installing the Kies software. You should be able to find it doing a search.

[Q] unable to connect to kies

im using windows 7 it keeps on telling me that i need usb drivers. When i go to the samesung website to download the kies for windows 7 pack w/drivers, it sais that they are not the right ones, it sais that they are not the right drivers
There are a bunch of driver links actually posted here in these forums. Use the search for AIO toolbox I think - there was a link for drivers there.
Samsung drivers should work fine??
are u using kies or kies mini
the regular kies is for European phones
the tmobile vibrant needs kies mini
i have windows 7 too and once i installed kies mini my drivers were fine
Kies Mini Download; http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...24222256530/Kies_Mini_For_Vibrant_11011_4.exe
Download, install, and you should be good. Since like the above poster said, you may not be using the appropriate Kies version...

No no kies stop dont!!!!!!
REPEAT REPEAT DONT USE KIES, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!!!
IM DEAD SERIOUS, MANY A VIBRANT HAVE BEEN BRICKED USING KIES UPGRADE INCLUDING MY FIRST VIBRANT!!!!
JUST DONT DO IT, VERY VERY DANGEROUS!!
^ He (the OP) only wants to install Kies to obtain working drivers, not to upgrade with it. At least I'm pretty sure that's what he meant.

That doesnt make much sence.
You can find the windows drivers right here in the stickies or just look around alittle bit in the developement tab and you will find them.
Edit:Lol i just went to the stickies in dev. And the drivers jumped right out at me in about 2 seconds after i posted this....and you can thank bay_wolf for that
I hear ya.
Also I am not sure why so many people don't use the Toolbox. I mean it has Odin, the Pit/Tar files, the drivers, even simple read along instructions. Whe i first came here, that was what so many suggested and now it seems like a forgotten, albeit still extremely useful, relic.
Shortbus, I even think you were one of the ones who told me to use it.
Dont ever use kies. It was made by kindergarden programmers. Worst program ive ever used.

Uninstall all previous drivers, reboot, install these, reboot again, plug phone in.

Try this thread. The OP is a few months old & there maybe more up to date drivers available now (have you hooked your phone up to your PC & run Windoze Update ?) but it's a start & only thread I know of on here off the top of my head that has a link to drivers on their own. Most people install Kies to get the drivers.
So...What I'd do is this:-
1) Hook phone up to PC & run Windoze Update & see if it installs drivers. Basically, if your phone & PC can see each other (you get the yellow highlight in ID:COM in Odin or you're able to transfer files to/from your phone/PC), you don't need to do the next two steps.
2) If your phone/PC still can't connect to each other after 1), get Kies from Samsung's website & install it.
3) Still no joy after 2) ? Install the drivers from that thread I linked you to.
If you're running Win7, the drivers normally auto install when you hook your phone up to your PC via USB. Older versions of Windoze might require one/both of the other steps.

Yes sir. My windows 7 pc can detect my samsung. So does it mean i dont need kies. Also i transferred music and videos into it. So there would be no problem with odin? Thanks thanks thanks

KIES connection problem

I have latest version of KIES and need to work with SMS messages etc but i can't connect it with PC. I have Win7, but this doesn't work. Why Samsung won't make proper software ?
I don't have any ROM installed.
I have backups done with KIES and I need to work with them, what are my options, what software to use ?
Do you have the correct drivers installed?

Drivers for what exactly ? if there were automaticaly installation of drivers then yes. I have Kies problems from day one, never worked smoothly. One time it works, one time doesn't, but now it won't work at all.

Total removal of Kies and all registry entries and USB driver .
Reboot PC and reinstall Kies .
Multiple posts on here regarding Kies .
Why Samsung won't make proper software ?
Go and ask Samsung XDA does not use Kies .
