[Prob] Got Issues with connecting GS3 to Kies ? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm from India and using Galaxy S3 now.
My phone (Galaxy S3) fails to recognize on Kies. I'm doing everything correct , but still it is not showing in Kies.
Previously it worked for me, but now its not at all.
Kies show this error message :- "Unable to connect to GT-I9300.Failed to retrieve device information."
I've installed all the drivers successfully. I've updated version of Kies installed.
Actually, I imported my contacts and saved it on my laptop. Now, I can open that "contacts.sbp" file only on Kies. Or is there any other way to again import that file to my GS3 ?
Please, help me guys !
Thanks.

Also try to reinstall kies. Most probs will get fixed.

Use Google for your contacts in future, I know that doesn't help right now, but will save you trouble in the future.

Open Kies
Open your saved spb file
Select all the contacts
Click SAVE
Select a location on your PC, create a directory called Contacts.
Browse to this directory and save the file using VCF as your file extension
Yes it doesn't give VCF as a file type option so just manually type it.
Check the directory and it should be full of vcf files.
Copy the directory to your Phone SD Card and import using contacts import.
Does this work?

Try Kies forum. Samsung forum. Or Samsung.com support online help.

How can I create directory ? Do you mean a Folder ?
And how can change the file extension manually ?
Thanks.

Yes i mean folder.
As i said quoted before "it doesn't give VCF as a file type option so just manually type it."

Im facing this error after rooting my device. Tried using different pc no avail. Tried by rooting another sgs3, it also stopped being detected by kies :/

I upgraded my GS3 with the latest Firmware by using download file for samfirmware.com .
And after I installed the latest firmware, Kies stopped to recognize my GS3.
Is there anyway to resolve this ? Anyone experiencing the same problem, here ?

Now that you mention, I did the same thing and I too am facing the same problem.

Have a look in the SGS 1 forum as i know the question been asked ,but dont know the answer .
jje
tried a few searches on Sg1, all bring up loads of unrelated stuff, was hoping someone would just have the answer.
Would be very useful, im on litening rom atm, and the only backup i had was the .SBU from kies. Kies doesnt recognize the phone anymore lol.
All that's available through Kies - and more - is available for download for installing via Odin.
No reall need to unpack the Kies file IMO, just download whatever you need from the ROM download threads in the dev section, it's all there
SBU file - need to open the sbu file and pull out my contacts -my outlook data contact file corrupted and i only have an old backup. i gave my phone to my daughter. she's out of town.
i'm not a techie so i need a laymans fix - anyone know? Samsung can not help - you need the "same" phone to restore.

Data restore problem using Sony PC Companion

I am using Sony xperia S without any major problem.
But facing little problem after reset to factory settings or firmware repaired by P C companion . I back up my contacts,messages, Bookmarks and Settings using P C Companion There was no error or problems during the backup process.
After updating firmware When I tried to restore my data. It always shows that 'data restore failed'.
PC Companion has stored a ".dbk" file on my PC. But PC companion failed to restore my data to my SXS. I used both Windows 7 and XP but failed to get back my data.
Sony also aware this problem see this link-
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35170
If anyone also facing this problem please share your experiences in this thread.
That happened to me too...
I tried everything and there is no solution...can't find any help on internet...sony support is useless in this matter...they don't even know why this happens!
Hope some solution comes out soon cause I lost a lot of important stuff like meeting, SMS, contacts...
1st yellow tint...then yellow white, micro and ear sound issues, now this...thanks a lot Sony...you are really doing it right
PS - I'm using this app now for backing-up and restore:
http://www.elita-clan.com/downloads/...re_v010935.apk
It is very easy to use and it works fine on my XPS
Solution
Hey there!
I had the same problem (just wanted to retrieve my Contacts) and managed to get them. In the following I will explain how. This method probably works with backups from other mobiles made with Sony PC Companion too.
I got the same problem (also only fullbackupdata), after rooting my mobile and not thinking of the problem, that it might not be able to restore the contacts.
Here's what I found out: I couldn't find anything with Google, so I decided to just look at the data of the file. It starts with:
ANDROID BACKUP
1
1
none
I did some Googeling again and found out, that it is the same file like an ICs created adb backup.
I also found a project to retrieve Data from backups: ht tp s: //github.c om/nelenkov/android-backup-extractor
HOW YOU CAN RESTORE YOUR DATA:
Get your Fullbackupdata-Contactfile.
1. First go to your backupfile: (C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\Sony\Sony PC Companion\SomeNameDependsOnLanguage\
2. Make a Copy of your backup-File (crtl+c, crtl+v)
3. We want to change the file extension, so make sure you see it. If you don't see a .dbk at the end of your file, go in the explorer window in the left upper corner on organise -> Folder and search options. Change to view and then deselect "Hide extensions for known File types"
ht tp://kb.winzip.com/kb_upload/image/folder_options2.png
4. Rename (F2) the file to backup.zip
5. Open the zip with 7zip or something similar.
6. Navigate to Applications\com.sonyericsson.android.contactsimport and get the fullbackupdata file which is lying in this folder.
7. Put this file on your Desktop.
8.Download this jar-File: ht tp: //ge.t t/64TJmne/v/0?c
9. Put the .jarFile also on your desktop.
10. Doubleclick the .jar-File. After a few seconds a new file with the name "restore.tar" should show up (If not check if your fullbackupdata-File really has the name "fullbackupdata" and is on the desktop)
11. Open the .tarfile with 7Zip
12. Navigate to restore.tar\apps\com.sonyericsson.android.contactsimport\f\
13. Copy full_backup_vcard.vcf to the Desktop.
If everything worked you're finished, you can open this .vcf File via Windows-contacts -> import or put it directly on your phone and import it there (open Contacts. Settingsbutton -> impot)
If you don't trust my .jar file, you can also download the github-project follow their orders and compile it yourself.
I hope this helped also other people. It took me quite a while, so I thought I should share my solution.

Hm seems like you have an other phone configuration than me...
I tested it with Sony Xperia Go with android Version 4.0.4.
Try googeling in which directory your Contacts are stored, than open with my jar file this file and you should be good to go.
If you don't find anything, you can also write your model and I try to find a solution... best you email me, I'm not sure when I will get o this forum (send (at) johannesdeml.com)
@stricler:
Do you have Java istalled? Are both files in the same directory (my .jar-File and your fullbackupdata file (which also has this name))?
If you can't manage to do it, you could also send me your file if you want to ( send (at) johannesdeml.com).
My jar File should still work, got a lot of positive feedback here: talk.sonymobile .com/thread/51298?start=10&tstart=0

I had the same problem, here's the solution:
in step 6 instead of navigating to Applications\com.sonyericsson.android.contactsimport you should go to Application\com.sonyericsson.android.socialphonebook and get the fullbackupdata file from there.
I followed the steps. but on clicking on the jar app, my nokia suite opens up! :/
Johannski You are Awesome.
Thanks brother for all your help. All my contacts restored...!!

Well that is not a lot of information. Probably you have a problem with your java installation. Try to run the program with the commandline to get more information. Therefore run the command "java -jar restoreData.jar" in the folder where the jar lies.

I'm going nuts..need help importing contacts

Hi all,
I'm trying to import around 330 contacts from my nokia to my GS2...the thing that is driving me nuts is that before I used to receive all the contacts at once and they're in my contact list instantly...now with the VK Rom 5.2 based on ICS 4.04 I receive the files one by one...why is this happening?? How can I receive all the vcf files at once as it always was????
Thank you in advance

1) make a bkp of all ur contacts on ur nokia phone as .vcf file then copy the same to ur pc.
2) transfer that .vcf file to ur s2 phones sdcard ( internal or external)
3) go to contacts setting then try importing the same by selecting 'Import from Sdcard' and see

Thanks for the reply i'll try that and by the way I meant bluetooth transfer...I used to get all the vcf's at once but now it's one by one..
This doesn't work as my nokia is an old nokia N95 and can't save contacts as vcf...
This is how I used to do it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXHtHntihTY
but now I keep getting the contacts one by one...not sure why !!!!
You could also try copying the contacts to your SIM card and then use the same SIM card on ur GS2 and Import from SIM Card
tried that already...got a SIM card full msg...lol
the easiest way for me was to synchronize all my contatcs with my googlemail account. Once you have uploaded them, you can restore them on any android based OS. Noo need for bluethooth, or any vcf files...

In that case use Nokia PC suite :
-Connect your N95 to your computer via USB cable
-Click on the "Contacts" icon
-Click - File - Export
This will export as a text file. Then use google contacts on ur pc and import this file and synch using your phone.
Thanks a lot for the help guys...all sorted out and fine now

Not able to install apk files

A family member has the Galaxy S3 and it is completely stock, non rooted and so on, and i know the phone does not need to be rooted to install apk files.
The problem is that i have copied over the apk file that i want onto his S3 but his phone, no matter what file explorer you use, just will not see the apk files at all, the fines worked fine on my Sensation and DHD and One X, but i just can not get the phone to see the apk files,
any idea's on what is causing the phone to not see the files?
cheers

you sure they are named as .apk file and not .zip? you should be able to see the filename without the .apk in myfiles for example (myapp.apk will appear as myapp), you will also have to check allow install from unknown sources in the security menu in settings..
yes its named .apk
i have not changed anything about the apk files from installing them on my other phones as i said, the DHD and the Sensation are both rooted but my One X is not rooted and that was able to see the apk file and install it, i seriously have no idea on why the S3 is not seeing them at all and that is after searching online for info
also i have enabled the use on non-market applications to be installed, but that is no use if the phone cant see the .apk files to install it in the first place
How you transferred the file to GS3? Is the file visible when connected to PC?

also i tried it on a friends stock, non-rooted Galaxy S2 and it could see the files and it installed first time with no problems so right now i have no idea on what is going on with the Galaxy S3
Sorted, i know what it was, me being a tit....
when you open astro, it starts off in the SDcard folder... the samsung see's the built in memory as the SDcard.. to see the actual SDcard (the removable one lol) i have to select extSCcard..

[Q] Access folder by PC

Hey guys!
I have a problem ...
I use an app for courses (Udemy) and it have the option to download courses for offline watching.
Did it. I can watch the app offline, but wanted to move to the PC. I found the files in the folder:
android / data / com.udemy.android / files / udemy-final-downloads
Within this folder I have several folders, each containing one video of the course. The problem is that when plug the mobile in PC most of the files do not appear.
In short: I can see all the phone but the PC does not appear the most.
I've tried with linux and windows. Already asked to view hidden files and resolves nothing.
Has anyone had similar problem?
Obs.'s Mobile phone is a Moto X.
Thanks Guys!

Move the files or folder to your highest directory. Should be something like /storage/emulated/0. FYI, your device has to be unlocked (meaning PIN or pattern or password or whatever) to open anything on the phone on your PC.

That's weird. How about uploading them to cloud storage, like DropBox or Google Drive?
I tried it too. The files are very big 4.8 GB and always stop. I'll try do it littke files at time.
Send to PC over Bluetooth?
Delete and re-download them to a location of your choosing?
Copy via PC or SDCard
You can locate the folder as you did, thus:
android/data/com.udemy.android/files/udemy-final-downloads
copy it to memory card or flash using otg if your device supported it. Otherwise, you copy it to your PC, I used Ubuntu to copy the folder. Afterwards open and rename each course (file) accordingly, but is a very tiresome task.
Hope this will help.

What protocol are you accessing the files from your PC? Are you using MTP, MSC, etc...?
May i suggest that you install ES File manager, use it's remote manager (which uses ftp) to check if you can see the files.
Personaly for transfering files between my Droid and my PC, because MTP is so utterly slow I use an app called "MTP-alternative" which allow you to tranfer files over USB but uses the Wedav protocol and is really quick. (if it works, bear in mind that when transfering files to your mobile it copy them in /data/local/tmp which gives the impression that the files aren't transfered to your mobile)

from Udemy to MP4, AVI, MP3
Hey, i realize this is very late but i hope my answer will help others. I had to do something simillar and i found a very simple work around. all you have to do is download winrar or any other app that can archive files/directories. Use the app to make an archive of the Final Downloads folder which contains all the other nested folders with the videos in them. Now you can connect your phone to your computer and transfer the .rar or .zip file over and extract it on your desktop.
Thanks for your answer, this is worked for me. The problem is solved now.
