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 .

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,
got a S3 since a few hours and KIES doens´t install on my X64 machine.
It just hangs in the installer.
Any suggestions?
thanks a lot, nearly
Make sure your S3 isn't plugged into your PC at the time. For some reason Kies wouldn't install for me while my S3 was plugged into my computer. Hope this helps...
Yep. Don't use it! Use Odin to flash firmware.

Hi,
i got my S3 as a Media device now. How can i copy files to it? It doesn´t let me.

My Kies installation looped on 'Installing hotfix'. I just pressed cancel and it continued the installation. And it works fine afterwards as well.

SAMSUNG USB Drivers
You can use the SAMSUNG USB Drivers instead of Kies.

This is because of java - I can't remember which way round it is, but you either need to install it, update or uninstall it to get Kies to go past hotfix. I think its install
It's a common problem!

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.

Just checking, are you sure that you bought an legitimate Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300? Maybe it is a fake? Where did you buy it, was it used before?
Go into settings and then "about phone" and then read what phone model you have.
BTW Kies is the worst crap ever if it comes to Phone management softwares.
Try to uninstall Kies and install only the drivers instead, which you can find here:

I have a samsung galaxy young s6312, stock android 4.1.2 jellybean, non rooted. I am unable to connect it with kies, however hard I try. Kies shows the dialog box "reconnect the phone in samsung kies (pc studio) mode. Current connection mode not supported by kies" Usb debugging is disabled. I tried rebooting my phone. I also tried rebooting my pc. I tried reinstalling kies, but nothing worked. I have never been able to connect it with kies. I googled the issue, visited thousands of sites, but no solution worked for me. Plz help.......
