[SOLVED] Kies can not update 2.2.1 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

THIS PROBLEM IS SOLVED!
Hi, I am using JPO version of Germany (DBT) for I9000 international. When I connect device to computer, update notification appears for 2.2.1. However, when I click on update after skipping or non-skipping backup, device disconnects and notification appears that device not connected. Then, clicking on OK update process ends but my galaxy s is connected to KIES. I tried numerous times and I am waiting for someone who overcame this problem.
full error message: Firmware update stopped because GT-I9000 has been disconnected. Please check the connection and try again.
I tried those:
Updating KIES
Hard reset device
Uninstall & reinstall KIES
Open KIES as admin
Open KIES in compatibility mode
Restart phone
I also tried Win7 32 bit,XP and XP virtual PC
Solution is in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997974

have you tried it on another computer?
If that does not work you can always download the version you need and flash it yourself through odin. As long as it's a stock rom it shouldn't even compromise your warranty
EDIT:
But first try the other computer, if it does not work on any other machine you can also suspect faulty hardware and just send it to samsung / bring it to your carrier. I think they will investigate and update it for you.

I managed to understand problem thanks to you but I can not figure out a solution. You are correct that my phone connects and synchronizes great normally but it does not connect to KIES in download mode.

maybe kies does not recognize in download mode...so u can choose alternative of flashin with odin..its easy and fast =)

I am afraid that I had a bad experince with Odin. My phone connected to Odin. When I clicked start, nothing happened. After half and hour I unplugged, I saw a phone, a cable and a computer on screen. After that, I updated to Froyo using KIES, that is why I am not a fan of ODIN

[Q] Unknown device - Samsung Galaxy S

Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S is listed as Unknown Device.
It started after an update to 2.2 via Kies and i did that with the regedit exploration. That was the 2.2 beta and then i updated it again with the official release this time also with the regedit exploit. I have formated the internal SD (i cant dismount it cause im on froyo i guess? atleast there is no option about it). Factory reset and so on.
Reinstalled kies 5 times, installed USB drivers again and again. I have tried it on different platforms with both XP (32-bit), Vista (32-bit) and Slackware Linux (32-bit). The computors just cant find drivers for the device.
I have tried all the different usb options in the phone settings nothing happends. I think i have tried everything that can be found here and on google...
The phone is Rooted and im now on PDA: I9000XWJP6, PHONE: I9000XXJPM, CSC: I9000XEEJP4.
Build Info: 2010. 10.
I believe the main thing here is that i dont even get the MTP application in the phone to recognize that a USB connection have been initialized. Nothing happend in the phone when i connect the USB no MTP screen or anything, just chargeing. I have tried 2 diffrent usb cords both that worked before so its not that.. The computor just says unknown device and Kies dont notice anything at all.
I have tried installing another firmware with Odin in Download mode and stil unknown device.
So i believe the phone have, in some way lost its internal usb drivers? I have also noticed that the battery "100% charged" icon does not disapear after i disconnect the usb or the charger. Also sometimes the icon continues to charge after i disconnect. Sometimes when i turn the phone of it starts by itself after like 2 min.
Anyways! What i was wondering is if there is a way to install an official firmware via update.zip volume-up+home+power?
When i try to install a customized rom with update.zip it says:
E:signature verification failed Installation aborted.
Cause of 3e bootloader? But i think its best to maby have a good stable firmware before i go customized?
So any help would be appreciated!!! heeeeeeeelp.....
Try installing theses drivers x64 x86 depending on what operating system you're on.
If that doesn't work try going into download mode and connect with odin. With the recovery problem you need to flash 2e recovery
You can also try and download and flash the latest version firmware to your phone and see if that helps.
Good luck and tell me how it goes

Hi m8!
Thx for the reply!
I have allready tried installing those drivers doesnt work for me.
I have tried Download mode with Odin to, it still says Unknown Device in Windows (i have Vista 32-bits, but tried it on XP and Linux to).
So anything that has to do with a USB-connection seems impossible at the moment...
The phone dont start the MTP application at all and windows dont install the drivers, it just says unknown device when trying to install.
I just unistalled Kies and removed everything from regedit with "kies" in it and then rebooted and downloaded a new fresh Kies file. Installed it and rebooted again while i wiped the phone, formated the SD and did a factory reset.. still "Unknown Device" :[
The problem seems to be the software in the phone.. so my question is: Is there is anyway to update or flash the firmware in the phone without any USB connection?
Is there maby any way to get 2e recovery mode without usb connection?

There is an app in the Android Development section here that allows you to flash a kernel within Android. Never tried it myself but I believe it is now stable and you could use it to flash CF-Root internally

Have you tried recovery mode? Big yellow triangle with Android man holding shovel. Then connect to PC with Kies running and click on firmware update button.
Thx man!
But it seems that i dont have root access anymore, so cant use that app either :/ i think im a hopeless case.. :[

Yes man.. i get the same thing with the Yellow friend that says "Do not turn of target!!!"..
"One of the USB devices attached to this computor has malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it."
and also
"Unknown Device Installed
The software for this device has been successfully installed.
Unknown device - - Ready to use"
Are you connecting through a hub or direct to the back port of the PC. A hub will cause problems. If direct then try this.. Plug in and wait till you get the unrecognised device info. go into device manager, identify the device it will either say Samsung or unknown device. right click and remove device say yes if it asks if you want to delete the driver. now restart the pc after unplugging the usb then after it has fully restarted and connected to the net plug it back in again. Hopefully it will look on the net for the driver and install the correct one.

Yep tried that to.. i have even tried it on 3 diffrent computers 2 of them in all usb ports.. and everything els works that was connected in those ports.
I dont think its the software in the computer that is the problem.. :/
I believe there is some internal (in the phone) usb firmware problem, if thats possible?
i have exactly the same problem my usb by giving uknown device (i used it at 3 computer with kies software) it seems usb not working anywhere.
I believe our only solution is to find a way to install e2 recovery via the phone.
I have this problem also.
My SGS is rooted.
I tried everything. Googled many hour.
I din't know what more to do.
I have "Android system recovery <2e>" Is this an advantage?
I turned the phone in to my provider. this message is what i got from the repairservice.
Repair Details: The phone's charge connector is moisture/water -damaged, can not be repaired. returned without action.
WTF?!! i have been really careful with the phone. The only thing i can think of is that it has been really cold where i live (Sweden) and i had it in my pocket.. but i mean cmon! it goto withstand that!
I guess i have to wait for samsung to make it possible to update firmware via Wifi.

With Recovery 2e i think it can be possible to update your phones firmware with the update.zip file but i think you need to have your phone rooted.

I think so. I have my phone rooted and also ROM Flash Manager installed. The issue now is to find an european stock image to flash compatible with ROM Flash Manager
I looked for the stock firmware image (my phone has JF3) but can't find where.
Anyone?
I don't want to flash a cooked image just in case I have to ship the phone to the repair service.
Hello, I have exactly the same problem.
My SGS is unrooted, due to warranty, and alway keep it with maximum care (it is not a free phone...).
Symptoms are the same:
-It started after an update to 2.2 via Kies
-Absolutely unrecognized by windows (xp32 and win764) anymore
-battery "100% charged" icon does not disappear after i disconnect the usb or the charger
-turning the phone off it starts by itself after like 2 min.
More: incredible but sometimes when connected to car charger, I have the message "usb connected".
Already tried all possible (unrooted) tricks.
I believe usb internal drivers (if any) are corrupted (maybe by moisture?), how to reinstall them?
Maybe usb connector damaged; I have moved a little bit with a scrwdrvr the usb connector plate and clean with air and a thin blade but no result.
I will bring to service, as warranty is still valid, but surely they will discard me (I am optimist)
If there is any solution, please post it.
Hello,
Same here, can't connect phone to pc, mtp dont start on phone after connect it on pc !
Anyone know how flashback stock rom if its possible ?
Hi someone have a stock firmware for flash it in to recovery ?
I think i will try send the phone to samsung after reflashing for see what the guys from samsupport says about this !
Yes, if a part of firmware has been corrupted (with usb info for pc recognition) maybe the solution is to reinstall entire rom.
How to find a stock rom?
How to reinstall rom from SD card in a non rooted phone with no usb connection?

Help...ODIN won't recognize phone in download mode

I have drivers installed, I've used Odin before but now it won't recognize the phone in download mode. It'll see it when it is on though. Any help??? This happened after updating to 2.3.3 through Kies.
Just noticed that the PC doesn't recognize the phone either now. Must be drivers issue. How do I fix it???

In Kies, there are Kies Driver installer, that install a bunch of drivers for phone.
Try to install all drivers and then connect phone again.

do you have the kies drivers installed? and is kies not running (inc. shut down tray agent?

So i tried this, but it doesnt help. I still have in device manager something wrong.
When I'm trying Update Driver Software, windows cant found right driver...
Is it possible, that I something f*ct up at last flash? Before it everything works fine. When I flashed first time, i forgot the *.pit file - odin wrote "failed" - I tried it again, but correctly - everything was ok - I fashed kernel - after that in CMW I Instaled *.zip file with Juwe's ROM 4.3.1 and my phone reboot in landscape mode... and i cant change it to normal mode.
I tried factory reset from phone - there are some red lines with this: tsf format failed on dev/block/mmcblk0p2, but when i go to CWM mode through (volUP+home button+on/of button) and i did a factory reset there - is it without red lines. Somebody ask me if i tried reflash - so i am here with my "driver problem"

lol ok then just drivers then
I know this may sound dumb, but make sure you are using a compatible cable.. i.e. does data transfer, I bough a replacment cable months ago for my damaged one under the impression it did data because I could connect and transfer to USB (I know this is data)... but kies would not recognize the phone.. I ended up buying a real replacement. Problem solved.
I think, that my biggest problem is cannot connect to kies and odin...
i am in the end... so cabel is the same, i used it when i flashed befor - as i said my problem is in phone, not in drivers or cabels. Is here something to do flash without this drivers?
can you confirm there is no issue with your USB ports on your computer? just seems odd it wont recognize your phone in download mode... you are placing it in download mode when using odin right?
I just did a flash with mine to a stock rom,
Same problem, I can get to DL mode, but it does not recognize,
When I am in the standard Tab OS, with USB as mass storage, I can see if fine.
Odd how it just happened as well. I'd like to follow this thread see where it goes.
*edit reinstalling drivers does not resolve the issue,
- have not tried installing keis again yet though,
- also Odin recognizes it in Recovery Mode
*edit again - sorry guys, didnt realize i was in the i9000 forum, hit this on a google search and replied
I can go to the download mode throught 3-buttons combo - but odin recognize my phone - the same thing is in kies - it's vicious circle - i hope flash help me - but I cant do it, because i cant connect to odin
Unfortunatly I am out of help... I thin kyou may need someone who knows ADB and the phones system internals if ODIn won't recognize your phone in Donload mode... I have had my phone in several bad situations(Fried internalsd/bootloaders) but download mode would always connect me to ODIN..
Last try, try different versions of odin, 1.3 - 1.8 apparently it can be testy with different versions of windows.
Try the drivers & Odin 1.83 from my signature. Works all the time.

Galaxy TAB P1000 NOT Detecting in ODIN

Hello xda users,
I need HELP !
I have a galaxy tab P1000
currently froyo 2.2
wanted to upgrade to GB
Tried the Odin way from another link on this site (MANUAL updation for galaxy tab(p1000) into 2.3.3 gingerbread ), it failed and the Tab got soft bricked,
somehow managed to unbrick it, now its back to its original fw, but it keeps restarting in a loop until i switchd the damn thing off completely
I have tried to go in download mode to flash but odin doesnt recognise it , tried differnt computers too, no use.
I have gone in recovery mode, hard reset, wipe cache , still when i switch it on, it goes in a reboot loop.
tried to use heimdall. cant get sucess as i might not understand how to use it properly
Please help.
Sincere thanks to you if you can help me get my tab up and running., if not in GB atleast back in froyo.
(PS- i im not worried about my data , and i have not backed up the rom etc before doing any of these)
Try to reinstall or install a usb driver from samsung
tried that before , didnt work
anyway now i managed to get it detected on ODIN and flashed it to GB

Yeah, happened to me too, nearly had a sh*t my pants when Odin didn't recognise my Tab.
I would recommend -
charge the Tab fully using wall adapter (4 hrs+)
plug it in with Odin open and using USB cable
don't expect Odin to recognise the Tab immediately
check back after 5 mins or so (I don't know, does Odin refresh?)
I was able to restore my Tab from the PC - ! - Marvin screen.
I don't want to go back there again though!
yea dude.. same here
i kept it on charge for a couple of hours and then tried.. bam it conencts..

My Galaxy tab also doesn't connect to usb after cache wiped humber os flash
Thanks in advance guys!..
Earlier I was using Cyanogen mode 10 Custom ROM but has few issues like recognize SD card.
later I flashed to Humber OS caused real problem.
It was clock work recovery installed but my tab tab boots stays on screen humber OS.
It goes to recovery mode, and also to some unknown recovery mode.
Either the way not recognized by computer. I tried all options like heimtal an Odin. No help.
Friends any help, would be highly appreciated.
BUMP
Any solution to this given the fact that usb drivers have been installed?
Are you sure it is recognised by the computer before trying Odin or Heimdall?

4 Reasons Why Odin is Not Detecting Your Android Device:
Reason 1: No drivers installed for your phone
Most of the time Odin is not able to detect your phone, simply because you haven’t installed the drivers for your phone. Normally windows would automatically download the respective drivers for your phone from the internet and install it. But in case it isn’t able to do so, you need to download the drivers from your phone manufacturer’s website.
Reason 2: Inferior quality or damaged USB cable
Odin is very sensitive to low quality or damaged USB cables, which is a major reason why odin will detect your android phone in file transfer mode but fail to detect it in download mode. You might have a genuine USB cable that came with your Android phone but with time its quality will depreciate, which is why you might have to get a new USB cable.
Reason 3: Odin is corrupted
This happened once with a reader on my blog, we tried everything to solve his problem, but in the end using a different version of Odin worked out for him.
Reason 4: USB port is defective
Defective USB ports can also be a reason for Odin not detecting your Android phone. This was a problem faced by one of my readers and plugging the USB cable in another USB port worked out for him.
#######################################################################
and I need install cwm recovery on a twrp recovery and just do that with this app:
ROM Manager
if you want do same job; you can download it from google play easily!
and install recovery,rom or restore backup with it.

reason 1: my phone is samsung and it's detected by ODIN, kies and I transfer files from and to my computer without problems. also tried reinstalling just in case but nothing, so I guess this is not the answer for my problem
reason 2: tried with original cable, but as I didn't use the tablet for a long time I also thought it could be the cable, so I asked a friend of mine if he could lend me one cable, but that didn't work. pity. :/
reason 3: tried 3 different versions of ODIN, and in every version my phone (mentioned above) is detected. shame. :S
reason 4: tried the 3 different USB ports in my laptop. two 2.0 USB ports and one 3.0 USB port, so again I doubt this is the reason of my problem.
extra reason: ~~~ maybe it's the OS version ~~~ // this laptop came with windows 8 preinstalled. nothing. then, I updated to win 8.1. again nothing. now I'm running windows 10 and the same, nothing is detected neither by ODIN nor the computer. also tried in 4 different computers running win xp, win 7 and other with win 8.1.
btw, thank you anyway for your apportation; this may help other people, but unfortunately, it's not my case, so can anybody else join me to think about a new reason and a way to solve it? thank you very much :good: :highfive: :fingers-crossed:
~~~~~~~~~~~~ EDIT ~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have continued researching and found a software. it didn't work for me, but maybe it works for other people.
-first, you have to make sure you have java installed on your computer.
-second, extract the oneclick.rar file on an easy-access directory.
-third, put your tab on download mode (while charging icon when tab is turned off, press power + volume down until a yellow triangle appears).
-fourth, click start unsoft-brick and let the magic begin! 8)
note: if a warning error pops up, trust the software and click on resolution center and follow the instructions of one of the three "alternative ways".

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S stuck on boot screen

Hi, i'm noob in Galaxy Flashing so this is my problem:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 blocked from italian carrier.
Few times ago i tried to enable 3-buttons download/recovery mode installing Aries_P-SBL.tar.md5 with Odin. The installation finished successfully but the download/recovery mode still didn't work.
After some reboots (where the phone worked right), now the phone stucks in the boot screen (the one with Galaxy S GT-I9000 SAMSUNG).
With the JIG i can enter download mode but my computer can't detect the phone (Windows feels my USB connection but Odin does not detect it).
If i connect the phone to the computer in normal mode (not in download mode, so with stuck screen), Kies can detect the phone but says that it can't talk with phone in this way(like if it was in USB Debug mode).
I Hope someone can help me
Restart your computer>>>Go to task manager and close all Kies applications (I usually have 2 Kies running from startup)>>>Start Odin and select all the files>>>Put your phone into download mode and connect>>>It should be detected now.
If it is still not detected, close odin, disconnect phone. Start Kies go to tools and install drivers. Once this is complete. Close Kies and start from the top of this post...restart...
Solution Is HEIMDALL.....
Here Comes your solution:
You can easily back your phone with Heimdall.
It's a flashtool which is more complicated than ODIN.
If interesting,simply PM me and we will do it.
I'm Here...
Well,first go to here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755265
Second: Download 7-zip PC software & extract your official md5 firmware to obtain several other files.
Third:Search the web for a Heimdall How-To(if you didn't find,I'll provide You links)
Last:You'll flash the firmware via Heimdall & again your peace of mind will be back.
Try to reflash your phone normaly with another Rom, it should work

he said download mode works but odin cant detect the phone .
Try reinstalling the samsung usb drivers and/or try from another pc and see if it shows the same thing (meaning nothing) .
Hi,
sorry but i tried all the ways, Odin and Heimdall.
I tried Odin on Windows and Heimdall on MacOSX but always they say
"Failed to detect compatible download-mode device."
I'm sure that phone is in download mode
May i install drivers on OSX with Heimdall?
I have not original samsung USB cable, but i think this is not a problem
Rooted my GT-I9000, and now it has crashed!
First off all my Galaxy I9000 was trying to software update via Kies, and it failed. The it would not start, but i managde to root it with a stock "VOD" rom.. But after a while i wantet to root it back to "Nordic Version"... But i could not do this, because the 3 button combo dont work on my Galaxy I9000 anymore.. :/ So there for i baought a USB JTAG, that puts it into download mode. So far, So good But when it is finished rooting, it fails to mount/unmount a bunch of stuff.. I have a picture of the screen, so that you guys can se what the problem is. I have tryed to root it with the same version that worked before, but it dont work. I have also tryed with som pit files, and so on... I give up, i need help with my Samsung Galaxy S - GT-i9000. Please help me out with this..
Getting Hopeless...?
1)For you to become sure,my Galaxy S Aka I9000 was exactly the same as yours and right now there is nothing wrong with that of course after flashing by HEIMDALL.
2)Remember,if your are going to do anything,Your first and your last key,is your HOPE so be so hopeful and let's start to get over this.
3)Download I9000 USB driver from here and simply install it on WINDOWS OS.

4)Before Using Heimdall, Enter it's folder and you'll see another sub folder called driver and you'll see just ONE executable program,run it and follow these instructions:
(I'll Shortly Provide You A How-to)
5)Enter Heimdall and follow these instructions:
(I'll Shortly Provide You A How-to)
6)Flash firmware
7)Enjoy

generally no, but I recommend strongly to try another micro USB-Cable & another USB Port!
No one of these method does work for me,
any suggest?? my main problem is that the pc does not detect the phone when it's in download-mode. I know how to flash it, but there is not a program that can talk with it!
Can you try to make the operation on another computer?-install usb driver first...

Hi, changing computer worked. I tried on OSX and didn't work, on Windows 7 on VMware Fusion and didn't work. After all, i tried on a laptop with Windows XP and it solved my problem. Now i get a mobile network error, with one carrier it works and with another it does not. The mobile network detected is always really low.

[Q] Bricked Galaxy Gear

Hi guys! I have a big problem, because in the past I installed null rom on my gear, but today I wanted to update it to Tizen. So, I tried it with Odin, but it stuck and show a message Setup Connection... So I tried it again and again and again. Maybe 2x it skipped this message, but then it stucked I think in zImage or something like this. Then I unplug the cable from PC (when it showed me zImage) and now it is showing an error message on my Gear: Firmware update encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
But the problem is that Kies didnt connect to my gear, it is "Connecting" non-stop. So it recognise that something is in PC, but it didnt recognize that is my Gear. In Odin I have the same problem that i mentioned earlier in this post. Setup Connection and it is completely frozen. I tried everything. Other USB ports (I think 7 different ports), I tried to flash stock rom on another PC, I reinstalled the Samsung USB drivers, I tried to flash custom recovery, I tried different versions of Odin, maybe 10 alternatives from 1.5.2 to 3.09... So I dont know what should I do. Please help me an sorry for my terrible english, but I hope you understand me.
Thank you!
//PROBLEM SOLVED
I downloded stock android 4.2.2 and flash it with odin 3.09 on Windows 7 without problems.
