[Q] SGS2 and Kies over WiFi - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys!
I recently tried to connect my Galaxy s2 to Kies over WiFi instead of USB-Cable. It accepts the device and tells on the mobile screen the device has been connected and can be synchronized. But on Kies the connect-button doesnt go away...I know its a very common problem, but i havent found a solution anywhere ;__;
Is help possible? All drivers/firmwares are up to date and i already tried to reinstall Kies.
Its no firewall related problem and ive already checked the ports and shut and firewall down. Kies Air works flawlessly...but i need the outlook sync options >.<

[Q] Need help for Kies via Wi-Fi ( Not Kies Air )

Hi can somebody help me , how to connect SGS2 to Kies via wifi ? ( not the Kies Air one ) , but there is an option on " wireless and network " setting,it supports synchronization with kies via wifi . thank you in advance. help
So why dont you use the Kies Air there nothing wrong with connecting to computer via this mode...
I may be wrong but I think this is the way you connect using the KA.
The thing is I just want to try it out since we have this function so why not use it ?, I think it's not the same as Kies Air , anyway thank you for your suggestion .
You start Kies, then you go to your phone and start "Kies Wifi", your computer asks you to accept the connection ... that's it.
speaks for itself I think.
I've tried many times before and it's said " No Device " but with kies air no problem , is it just me or anybody having the same issue ?
those two are completely different!
Kies Air gives you access to your phone's internal sdcard letting you copy/move/delete/whatever files via the (!!) webbrowser!
Kies WiFi establishes a connection between the phone and Kies Software on your Computer via WiFi. You start Kies on your computer, start Kies Wifi on your phone, wait until it shows your computer in the list (assuming you are in the same network), click on the computer in the list and then accept the request on your computer. Kies is recognizing the phone and you are connected.
No device means there is no connection. Make sure you are in the same network, otherwise it won't work!
Thank you for your suggestion , but everytime I tried to connect to kies via wifi nothing happened except it just show me only my network name ( see the attachment below ) and yes both devices connected to the same network.
i have the same problem and did not get any solution yet and by the way do u have any wifi problems like u r connected to the wireless network but there is no internet data transfer please any one help
I've had the same problem, scanning for devices and the computer doesn't show up.
Try'd turning wifi off and on, restarting phone and it still didn't work. Computer has no firewall running at all, so its not getting blocked.
Try'd it a day later, it worked again :/
not helpful but just make sure your computer has been restarted recently, just to make sure the 2 (i think) kies process's are running in the background
can anyone upload a copy of kies wifi backup plzzzz
i uninstalled it by accident using titanium backup, from my wife's SII :s
Here is a step by step walkthrough and video http://www.careace.net/2011/05/03/how-to-download-and-use-kies-air/ for the Samsung Captivate; should work similarly for the GS2.

[Q] Connection Error with Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_2

Hi guys! A new problem has started today with the latest version of Kies (Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_2). It fails to connect with the phone and shows the error, "cannot start service on this device. Pls disconnect and reconnect the device". What does this mean? Have tried everything. From re-installing Kies to re-installing device drivers using the Connection Error Resolution thing in the Tools menu of Kies. It was connecting fine till yesterday.
My laptop has Windows 7 Home Premium which is fully updated. And my phone is CF Rooted KF3 with Stock Kernel. Does anyone know what's wrong?
Windows is not starting the service Kies .
Go to your Windows services manager and check .

Hi JJ, I opened "Services" in windows, and in the list of Services, there is no service with the name KIES or Samsung Kies. Can you pls give a detailed answer. Thanks in advance.
Point to be noted is that this new version of Kies was working fine till yesterday, only from today it is not connecting the phone. When I un-install and re-install Kies, it connects properly and detects the phone (when connected via USB cable) just ONCE. After that whenever I try to connect the phone Kies is giving the error message. Also note, that I am able to view the contents of the phone normally via Windows.
Does anyone have the answer to this problem??? This problem of Kies not recognizing the phone when connected is being faced by many people. Has Kies stopped recognizing rooted phones???
My newly purchase from carrier also can't connect to pc. (xp )fail to find any driver when connect, namely those cdc serial and android mtp

[Q] Kies Via Wirless Problem

I'm trying to connect my SGS2 to kies Using Kies via wirless
I got connected but Kies keeps loading the device and no access to the phone
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Kies is working fine via USB but i need Kies via wifi to sync the phone at my office and home PCs and i lost my cable 2 days ago
is there some thing i can do to make this work
Edit : Kies Air is working fine but i need Kies Via Wireless
Try to disable your firewall it maybe is blocking the ports needed by Kies.
Kies Air - Fix
I had this same problem, watched Kies connect once, but never connected again, kept stalling. Tried Mozilla, Chrome and Explorer, all with the same result. Then I noticed lots of Java icons stacked up in the taskbar, and under closer inspection, lots of instances of java started in the task manager.
Turns out the problem is the Java cache on your PC, it doesn't clear after you drop the connection, and prevents further re-connection attempts. Uninstall the Java on your PC and it all works fine. Not sure what you need to do if Java is essential to you.
Turns out the problem is specific to Java 6.24 and if you roll back to 6.23 it will be working again

[Q] I can't get Kies to connect to my Tab 10.1

I am completely unable to get Kies to see my 10.1 tab on my PC win 7. I always end up with an error message (Cannot start service on the devise. Please disconnect and reconnect the devise).
I tried the trouble shooting connection option, still the same no connection. Anybody have any tips on making that connection?
I always had problems with Task 14
I think mine stopped working via USB with the last update, although it worked over WiFi. Have you tried both?

WiFi works fine, but I don't see option of updating the firmware on WiFi.
In the same boat, trying to get ICS update but won't connect via kies......
wifi works fine.
The only way kies connects for me is using my unrooted backup. Any custom rom won't connect for me. Have you tried that?
I have the same problem. Tried to connect to Kies before the ICS upgrade and just now after performing the ICS upgrade. Nothing works, tried turning on USB debugging, etc.

Does factory reset work? On my HC 3.2 Kies (and USB drivers) were very finicky. Re-installed KIES/Drivers many times and only a factory reset got it primed and working. Have only seen ID mismatches once in a while after Stock ICS, but when it works Kies also recognises the tab.
my galaxy y has same problem after rooting the galaxy y by NeoX BlackStar X1....:crying:
i need to get back my contacts.......:crying:
if you are rooted, then the Tab will not connect to Kies. The same way like some Samsung applications will not work if rooted. So, there are two options that you: root and live free or stay connected to Samsung like an apple lover.... Sorry, but I am terribly upset on Samsung...
If you are stock and cannot connect... try removing all the drivers from PC (check internet for how to remove hidden devices). And try to uninstall and reinstall Kies

My rooted tab connected just fine to Kies.
What I think you mean is that if you're not running a stock ROM, you can't connect to Kies. That's probably the case. Mine is stock but rooted.

[Q] Kies

Hello!
I'm new to the forum!
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 that is 16GB.
I recently kept hearing about KIES.
So I installed the program. However, whenever I connect my tablet to my computer, KIES wouldn't recognize my tablet.
The only way I can connect the tablet with KIES is through KIES wifi on the tablet setting, which only let's me sync and won't let me update softwares.
Am I the only one having this problem with KIES? or is it just me?
Is there certain things I have to try before trying to connect the tablet?
an answer would be greatly appreciated
p.s.
I have tried reinstalling the driver few times through the connection troubleshoot... it didn't help

I have the exact same problem, have you found a solution yet?
Kies is a POS
I have been busy for almost a year on getting Kies to recognise my tablet. And even though quite a few people have got it working, none of the mentioned solutions work for my situation, except for the factory reset (i.e. wipe your tablet into factory status).
But alas, whenever I reinstall my software Kies will no longer recognise my tablet, and the software is run-of-the-mill stuff, all from Google Play.
So, I just bear it, and wait until the OTA gods are smiling down on me. Once in a while I update/upgrade Kies, re-test that it still does not work, and put Kies in the freezer.
If you try all solutions found in these fora (and not just xda) you might be lucky and find one that works for you, but lower your expectations.
So, probably best is to make backups, wipe to factory reset, get Kies to update and reinstall/restore your backup.
Just out of principle I myself will not be doing that as I will not let Kies dictate my actions. But that is just me.

i know this is super late, i'm sorry >.<;;.
So I didn't have to reset my tablet. Once the ICS update for my tablet was finally released, Kies started working too!
I hope you already figured it out..

ICS by itself worked momentarily on KIES, but 'lost it' again. But the latest KIES release seems to have solved most of the problems. The only problem left for me is that KIES forgets my tablet after I connect another tablet... So connect one P7510 and it recognises it, connect a second P7510 and it recognises that one, but then connecting the first one again and KIES will not recognise it anymore.
Independent of Firmware version (ICS on both) and KIES version... Tried to install an old version of KIES: no luck. Did al the bells and whistles (connect over Wifi and USB at same time and remove Wifi, USB debugging, re-install drivers, KIES, complete cleanup and reinstall) but nothing works anymore. Only a complete Windows factory recovery and install KIES works fine. Not a solution!
