Just flash a stock rom through Odin, it does the same job as kies only faster, you can find a stock rom here.

Does your phone connect normally via USB to the computer ? completely uninstall and re-install via a fresh download of KIES. Clear your Temp, %Temp% and prefetch folders. Check if the cable is faulty or not. One of these is bound to help you.
I have tried reinstalling keis and done everything i can think of but nothing seems to help. Before the update of kies my phone used to be able to connect via usb like normal ever since the update its all gone to pot

First of all, I must say that KIES is one of the worst pieces of software I have ever seen. It is buggy and you must hope it will work eventually.
I got one successful with my old phone (galaxy 551) after updating via ODIN first to the correct firmware for my country.
But with my current Galaxy S2 I had to go to the repair center who used ODIN to get the right version on my phone.
I now have made KIES work on my windows 7 machine. I had to install the UK version (not the country version) and used the connection problem wizard to reinstall the drivers. Now it says I have the current version of my firmware.
To go back to your problem. It would help if you post which OS you are on and which version of the firmware you have currently installed ?
Also have you USB error detection off in the settings of your Galaxy S2 ?
Hi,
I am trying to update my Galaxy S II to the latest firmware but whenever I try to connect it to Kies the PC does not recognise it.
I have downloaded fresh copy of kies from the Samsung site and also got my phone back to factory settings.
The phones shows MTP Application connected and the bar keeps moving but nothing happens on my PC.
Any advise would be helpful.
Thanks
try manual way with odin ? also, it is more safe with odin.
download the latest official firmware, you can look from sammobile website and flash it with odin.
i dont like to upgrade via kies. its downloading also upgrading at the same time. its too risk. let say, in the middle of process suddenly the electricity is down. there is a chance that the broken process can brick your phone.
Had the same problem and the way round which i found was to open kies first and then connect your device and it works.

Are you running a stock or a custom rom

and you made a new thread? Because there has never been one about this subject before has there? lol
I have installed Windows 8 Release Preview (64 bit) on my PC. I installed Kies (v2.3.2.1) so that I could upgrade my Samsung Galaxy S2 from Gingerbread to ICS. Kies installs OK and runs OK and detects my phone OK. I am told that there is a firmware update for my phone and when I proceed to downloads the firmware then... nothing. It just hangs. Kies dies (but does not close although it freezes). I have tried separately downloading the latest Samsung drivers (v1.5.4.0) and installed these too -- but the same things happens.
Is this a common problem? Or is it my PC? Is there a workaround? Cheers.

Use Odin and flash a stock rom from sammobile.com. It's essentially the same thing

Personally I wouldn't be concerned kies isn't really useful, plenty of threads on here about kies messing phones up. There's nothing you can't do yourself without the need of kies. You've already tried everything I can think of. Does kies itself require updating?

nope it does not need an update and i really would like to stay away from odin
Bro don't fear Odin, embrace it. Latest updates sooner, avoid bloatware and no root needed. Never had a problem with it, in fact it saved my phone several times as I'm a flash-a-holic
