Are you using the sdk or did you just install the available driver? I played hell getting the driver to fly with the sdk. Downloaded the driver seperately and connected the phone in usb debugging then navigated to the phone in device manager and pointed it at the driver manually.

windows 7 needs TWO separate drivers, not just the one that you can find in the tools folder that comes from modaco. the second driver can be found in the sdk, which you will have to get from the android developers site.
there are a number of threads about this. look for them

Download the sdk from the android developer site, then download the driver through the update function.

Install droid explorer and Android commander .
both will help you or even setup everything for you .
i have no problems with my nexus one on my theree versions of windows 7 (ultimate, enterprise and home premium) and completed the setup within 30 minutes using both mentioned above

Be sure that Debugging is checked under Settings/Applications/Development

MTP Application Shows Connected But Kies keeps on connecting

Hi Guys,
I have read all the threads and fixed for Kies but i am still stuck in a tricky situation. So far i have removed all files with extension greater than 16. Then formatted SD card to be sure.
Driver Recovery done through Kies, then rebooted the phone and connected it but still no go. Also i don't have any lagfix or different HomeScreen installed. It used to connect fine earlier but one fine day it just stopped working.
OS : Windows 7 64bit
Kies : Latest version 1.5.3.10103_100
The MTP Application on phone shows connected but the KIES keeps on connecting to the phone

The exact same thing keeps happening to me too. I just take the cable out and reconnect it immediately. Seems to work for me.

^^ Doesn't work for me
If i remove the cable and try to connect again then i get those MTP crashes. After that i have to remove drivers and restart the phone.

I have exact same problem.I fixed MTP loop issue,phone seems to be connected but kies still search for device. If i unmount internal sd,phone is stuck in mtp loop again. Odin is probably the only option,but dont want to lost garantee.

I am in the same boat
As last resort i will try wiping off all the data if nobody can come up with a solution for this.

I have also tried that (wipe,format SD) but without success...

Two things:
First, make sure your USB settings are set to Samsung Kies and not to "Ask on Connection" or anything else...
Second, I plug in my phone... wait for the PC to detect it, THEN launch Kies... don't open Kies until your PC detects the phone (you can verify by seeing if it shows up in File Explorer)
There is a bug with the MTP Application on our phones... going to be posting a thread about it shortly.

^^ Thanx for the help...
But this tip also didn't work out for me
My PC detected the phone just fine, but when i open KIES it never changes from the Connecting status

I've tried these tips:
-let Windows (7 32b) download all drivers
-reinstall Kies (5 times)
-manually install MTP drivers
-delete all files longer 16 characters (on both SDs)
-WIPE Phone and format both SDs
-Reinstall Kies drivers (automatically in left upper menu bar)
-connect usb and choose other connection like "mass storage" (after that kies recognize connection what is strangest thing)
-try 3 versions of KIES
...still same result.

Yup I know how all of you are feeling, I have the same problems too.
KIES really is nothing but a pain in the @SS!!

Just to add to the fixes that i have tried.
- Changed com port from 9 to 12 of GT-I9000 Device - Didn't Help
- Tried Connecting from 4 different USB Ports - Didn't help
Version of MTP Drives for windows 7 64-bit is (6.1.7600.16385) 6/21/2006 , can someone please confirm if this is the latest thing ? Also for those using windows 64-bit, if KIES is working then what is the driver version and date ?

Just loaded windows once again. Installed Kies and then updated Kies to the latest version. The version for use drivers it shows is 1.3.950.0. Before re installing windows I had 1.3.450.0 which I had downloaded from xda. Do you have winamp installed. Try removing it. I had a problem with it.

Unmount external. Format internal and mount internal. Than try it.

@david : I have already tried that, it didnt work . Thanx for the suggestion though
@fulcrum : Going to check drivers, will report back.

I feel your pain. I got it to work and did the upgrade. It worked great except it was 2.1 update-1 and it was that after. However, the phone works better. Go figure.

try this fix.
1)remove any external memory card
2)on your phone, navigate to the DCIM folder, and there should be a thumbnail folder.
3)delete all the thumbnail. files. they should have a white background.
4)connect to kies

@hennes : thanx for the suggestion m8 , we have already tried that ( its the 16 char limit thingy) .
Today i am going to reinstall my Windows 7- 64bit. If it doesn't work this time then i am going to abuse the chimps @ samsung FB page.

I like your spirit Abhishek. Have given them a piece of my mind too. Guess these guys on fb themselves don't know what's going on. Must be a guy just sitting on a pc and replying.

@Abhishek...I had the exact same problem.
I tried this method and it worked:
1. Go to Device manager.
2. You'll most probably see a problematic device --> GT-I9000.
3. Uninstall drivers for that device while your phone is connected to the PC.
4. Disconnect your phone and reconnect it in Kies mode.
5. Let windows search for the drivers and install them.
Once the installation completes successfully, your phone will be detected by Kies.
In case windows is unable to find the updated drivers, try installing them manually.
Hope this helps...

Abhisnek: I deside to put FroYo to my device trough odin and it works great.Im running on Doc FroYo right now.Result in quadrant are more than 200 points higer and it fixed many issues. If your phone have recovery than i recomend you do that too.I dont need kies any more.

Hi , try this:
1)Run eclipse : windows -> sdk manager . Close eclipse (not the sdk manager) and upgrade your sdk to 4.2.2 and perform all the updates that the sdk manager find.
2)Run eclipse : it will report some problem and advice you to check for updates : do it and upgrade. If eclipse doesn't report any error you can perform the check via help->check for updates.
3)Restart eclipse and you are ok

i already have 4.2.2 installed fully. and i said my phone sometimes is detected as online, but most of times it is offline

one more thing to mention.
my phone is also shown offline in adb, when i put this command in adb
adb devices [ENTER]
********** offline
it shows my phone's serial and then says it's offline, wtf?

the problem is in adb. In android 4.2.2 there is a debug usb protection .If you use the sdk 4.2.2 when you connect for the first time your device in usb debug, a popup on your screen device will ask you if that computer is trusted.
A lot of people have reported issues with this.. i've resolved easily with the upgrade of the sdk.
However there is a topic somewhere in xda with adb and fastboot drivers that work properly with 4.2.2 devices

this solved my problem.
i was studying this issue on many forums and blogs, and came to stack overflow. and found this answer.
go to your adb command prompt on pc and enter these commands one by one.
adb kill-server
set ADB_TRACE=all
adb nodaemon server
after that restart your pc,
Done!
now everytime i connect my phone with adb, it is online
Note: i don't know what these commands are doing, but it just solved my problem. the problem came out because of wrong path to sdk or something. and these commands do it magically lol, thats what i know.

[Q] Android Studio error on first startup

I recently downloaded/installed android studio since I am taking an online class on the topic. I had an error (screenshot attached) the first time I tried to use the program. Reinstalling Android Studio and restarting my computer did not help. Any suggestions?

Go to: Tools > Android > SDK Manager, and make sure you have the latest version of the SDK installed.
If you're up to date then it is most likely an error with your gradle build files. If you can't get it working open your module:app build.gradle file, and check what your 'compileSDKVersion' and 'buildToolsVersion' are.
Try changing your 'compileSDKVersion' to 21, and your 'buildToolsVersion' to 21.1.2. I think these are the most recent stable releases.
