[Q] Help with Kies via wi-fi - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Ok, here it goes... I'm trying to set up Kies wi-fi, and I'm having a hell of a time with it. I've went through and read everything about it, tried the so called 'guide', which is completely USELESS if you have norton 360, and I still cant get this damn thing to connect. Here's what I did: I installed the software on my computer. Set it up to the point where whenever I open the kies app on my phone, it starts the pc software. I press scan for devices, it finds my computer but it just wont connect. I've tried turning my firewall off, I've downloaded allshare and installed it on my computer to see if it had any additional drivers, and still nothing. This thing is driving me nuts, and all reality, I've read that its crap software, but I dont care... I still would like to see for myself, and really just figure out what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. BTW I'm running windows 7, with the latest norton 360, and cleanrom on my phone.

Any ideas anyone?
Edit: I was able to get it to recognize my phone, but now getting a "no sim card inserted" error message.

Are you running kies in administrator? What about reinstalling kies or disabling Norton for an hour or two to troubleshoot

Yeah, Ive tried all of that. Ive searched for the past 3 days when I have time, and it seems like verizons note 2 isnt supported yet. Im going to update my rom this weekend and see if that might fix the problem.

[Q] can't establish a connection google.. nothing works.

I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun to get this working.
Here's the deal, my current custom rom, Tesla coil GB is the only thing that lets me add a google account AND connect to Market. Actually, Vicious' MIUI rom works too, but that isn't useable for a phone.
I really want to use BAMF Forever or Cyanogen mod, but every custom rom I throw at my thunderbolt will not connect to the server.
I tried pulling the sim card out and using wifi to connect, I've tried turning on airplane mode and trying to connect, I've tried a factory reset... nothing works.
Getting an account added to the phone isn't the problem here, I can actually do that with the youtube workaround very easily, but even after I do that, every time I try and open the market app, I get an error that flashes up that says "server error" and nothing else, and then crashes when you hit "OK".
I've been sticking with my current rom for a long while because of this infuriating problem. I could really use any help possible. I'm starting to think my phone is defective.
So the problem only occurs with the market? Do other Google products work?

Yup, only market. Everything else works just fine.
After a quick google, i'm seeing some people saying they didn't have background data enables and it worked once enabled. If it is enabled, disable it, then re-enable it. Others said that worked. Good luck.
I'll give it a shot, as it's nothing I've came across on google for this problem yet.

Sometimes its just different search terms. Thats where i found a ton of them for this. Good luck.

[Q] Anyone having problems copying files to the Tab?

I'm not sure if this is a problem with all samsung devices, just my tab, or perhaps even my computer:
Whenever I try copy a large file, say a movie, the transfer stops half way through and I get a message saying "The device has stopped responding" So I break it into smaller pieces and transfer separately, which works. Then, after I disconnect the USB, I get a repeated toast "Media Scanner Running" every few seconds. Whenever I try open the Video Player, Music, Gallery or even Camera, they close right away. So I read somewhere online that this is Samsung's crappy media scanner. I cleared the data from the media app and then I see a message "media scanning completed" and now I'm able to access these apps, though they show no files.
I have finally resorted to streaming over wifi from my desktop to the tab. Is anyone else facing these issues?
I'm currently on the latest overcome ROM, but I've seen the same issues on AOKP, Task and even the stock 3.2 rom.
I just found this post and would like to say that I too am having this problem, it happened with the stock ROM and after ROOT with Task650 ROM... I was worried it was the hardware in the Tablet. I was wondering if you ever resolved this or found a way around, as I too can't transfer large files (my movies) to it, it just times out.
I will also have this problem, only with Android 3.2
with CM9 I had not more ', which are now in stock, it has returned to make, so it's the rom
I used to have this problem when I had my sleep timer set to 1 minute. I now set it on 5 minutes, and have yet to see the problem reoccur. I just loaded a 2.5 gigabyte folder to it this morning without a hitch. I am not sure that is the solution to your problem, I have done many things since then...any of which could have resolved the issue. I am a flashaholic, so it may have been resolved on one of my more recent wipes (I always restore to stock and completely factory reset my tablet prior to loading another rom).
Regardless, try changing your sleep setting to 5 or 10 minutes and see if this resolves your issue. Post back your results!

I doubt it's the Rom, as I have used them all. It's more likely a setting or a driver issue....I am leaning towards settings.

Are you transferring using Explorer or Kies? Try using Kies and see if it has the same problems if you were using explorer.
I will try changing the sleep setting, that's a good idea I had not thought of this. I am transferring through explorer - I will try it tonight and post back my results.

Looks like this didn't help me, the transfer failed. Also, I keep hearing the USB connect/disconnect sound all throughout while the tablet is plugged in, and yes I tried different USB ports. I even uninstalled Kies and tried. Same issue.
Sometimes toggling usb debugging on the tablet works for me. Seems like the tab drivers don't play nice with some usb controllers.

Hrrmmmm, interesting. It sounds like one of 2 things is happening:
1. Your connection between your tablet and your computer is intermittent, whether it be the cable or the pins on your tablet connection.
Or
2. For some software related reason your computer cannot keep your tablet mounted. You may try going into your devices tab on the task manager and remove all references to your tablet, then try plugging ur tablet back in.

you can install a kernel that allows to disable mtp and mount ass mass storage, it solved the problem for me and is also way faster.
cheers

Connecting to DM server

I got this out my phone a few weeks ago when I checked to see if I had an ICS update :thumbdown:
Of course I didn't.
Well now this message "connecting to DM server" stays in my notification bar. It also stays running. I did a check to see how much they battery life it was eating and it was well over 60%.
I tried the settings, manage apps, att update, clear cache but it still ran.
I finally used app quarantine to stop it.
Well now that we may get ICS soon I want the update option to run with out it running at all times.
Anyone else having this issue?

Connecting to DM Server
I had the problem today. Went to manage Running Apps and was able to stop.
If this does not work, did you try rebooting the phone?
I have tried resting the phone.
I even shut the phone off and took the battery out for 5 min.
It won't go away unless I put it in app quarantine.

I'm also having this same problem and have done everything that you've done to try and fix the problem, but it's still happening. Have found a fix by chance? This has been going on for about a week or two.

Load titanium backup and freeze it, or you could delete it too.
I just deleted it.....g
Mine just started showing this in the notification tray yesterday. I can freeze it and the notification goes away, but I don't think we want to delete it though, right? Isn't this how the phone connects to the AT&T server to get software updates? I figure I'll freeze it for a few days then defrost it and see if it fixes itself or connects to the server.

hi, try install Titanium backup, and freeze device management. You won't get the update notification anymore.

Connected as an Installer

When you plug the phone into a computer it connects as an installer so you can install the driver and Verizon stuff. Where can I find those files to delete them? I'd like for my phone to automatically connect as MTP for file transfer without having to pull down the notification on the phone can change it.
+1 for this. Is really irritating

I disabled all verizon apps minus the mobile hotspot and now it automatically connects the storage to my computer. I never saw anything about verizon when plugging it in, but I disabled it all first.
I've got everything disabled too and still does it so idk

Try enabling developer options and then tick on usb debugging .

I just noticed that at first a drive that says "verizon mobile" shows up in my computer, then it goes away on its own and the media drive comes up after. Takes maybe 15 seconds or so before the media drive appears. I'll look into disabling the verizon mobile part, but at least it doesn't pop up with anything on the desktop (for me at least) and goes automatically goes away for some reason.
It does go to mtp if you wait long enough. I guess I was never that patient. It would still be much better if it would just go straight to it.
Same problem on osx here, and thing is there's not even an installer for osx. All it has in there are dll and exe. Can find any solution to permanently disable it yet. Tried disable all vz stuff and didn't work for me here.
I just had this problem a half hour ago I wanted to transfer music it ended up being the off brand usb cable I was using s soon as I connected the oem one and check the mtp box it connected and I can transfer files

I'd like the option for the phone to default to charge-only, so that damn windows popup doesn't come up anymore. I get the CD drive verizon mobile first. Then when I close that, it comes up with the SCH-I605, and I have to close that too.
My car deck can read music from thumb drives and would charge my last phone and play music from it at the same time. Deck doesn't get anything from note and note says connected as installer.
I'm rooted, usb debugging on, most Verizon bloat gone.

Does anyone have an update to this?
I want to stop the annoying popups.
Thanks.
Run a custom kernel.
Problem solved
You could also turn off auto run in windows. It is a lot safer anyway (For those of us that plug in something where we don't know where it's been.)

It doesn't address the issue. It just hides the iso popup. It will still go to connected as an installer for 15-20 seconds, before your storage is available.

specially with the project i'm doing right now. where there's going to be a lot of plugging/unplugging

Flash aosp rom. Always in mtp mode.
I know this is old thread but if rooted you can rename system/etc/autorun.iso to system/etc/autorun.bak to keep the Verizon stuff from popping up when plugging in to computer. Still haven't found a way to skip installer mode though.
it's another one of verizons stupid things.
i have a sprint note 2 also, it goes straight to MTP. No sprint installer at all.
