[Q] Kies??????????? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I try to open Kies on my PC I get the following message. "Cannot set Owner property to a Window that has not been shown previously"
This problem has only started today and I had not done anything to course it.
I have tried reinstalling Kies but I still get the same message.
Any help will be thankful for.

are you using Windows 7 ?? try to run KIES as administrator, if that fails, try running in compatibility mode, like xp or summit.
weird problem, also check you have latest version

Yes Windows 7. I always run a administrator. Have downloaded latest Kies since this problem started.
Anyway thanks for your help.

I don't know what happened but all of a sudden Kies is now working again.
My thanks to those who looked in. I just hope that it stays working OK.

windows 7 has that problem for me to..

Why I cant update with official updater

I am wondering why I cannot update with the official desktop updater. Its pissing me off but everytime I go to load the thing it will start for a second then say Update failed" and then says
You should run this update as an administrator.
I AM THE ADMIN! I am the ONLY user on this forsaken laptop. Palm support is useless, and didnt tell me anything. I tried it on my desktop as well. Can someone PLEASE actually help and respond to this thanks
double post??
what OS are you using on your laptop? There may be issues with Vista. Try changing compatibility to XP sp2, run as administrator.
Just a suggestion as I really have no clue otherwise.
Try the SD card update if still not working (search forum)
Good luck

[Q] unable to get kies working on w7 64, tried everything how can I flash firmware?

Hi all,
I am unable to get Kies to recognise my galaxy s (when in Kies mode) or windows for that matter. I've tried installing the samsung usb drivers etc using the latest version of kies, still doesn't work.
What options do I have now in terms of firmware flashing? (I'm not installing 32bit xp just to flash my phone)
Cheers
if you search the forums you will find your answer, which will be along the line sof using Odin, very easy to use, so good luck and enjoy.
win7-64bit and kies connection semi-working method
I've tried almost all methods mentioned on different forums...but since i'm unwilling to mess to much around i've opted for this way:
using latest kies 1.5.3. 80something... on win7 64 bit..
remove the lockpattern from the phone if yo uhave it enabled
install kies...remove the kies autostart option and the kies trayagent
do the repair drivers and reboot
ones the bios screen is done..have the phone unlocked and connect to pc/laptop
wait and wait some more after login to windows..
one most occasions windows will finally tell you it have a new device ready for you...then open kies and life is good.. at least until like in my case the laptop goes into powersave mode and the connections are broken and I have to do the reboot step again
the firmware update from jf__ something to jm__ something was a hassle...but after a few attempts to run it the darn thing finally worked..
hope this helps
thanks for the help b, tried it but didn't work
I think the official word from samsung is that kies does not support windows 7 64.
Seriously regret ever getting this phone.

i am with win7 x64, fine here
using odin to flash rom is dam easy job.
Kies updated to _82 today.
the _82 update fixed closing the firmware updater for me that was in the last 2 builds on win7 x64 , it promptly closes having not used up more than 33mb ram when I click cancel or close after checking for new firmware, previously it billowed up to over 1300mb use and really flawed my system until it, kies and the connection manager were terminated fully.

[Q] Galaxy S and PC kies connection problem

Hi,
I have a problem connecting my phone to Samsung KIES. My phone is Galaxy S I9000 running Android 2.2. My PC is runnning windows 7 x64 and the latest KIES version 2.0.0.11032_12. When I connect my phone to PC, phone's screen shows that it is ready to connect with KIES. PC founds the divice as a memory card. But when I turn on KIES it only shows 'Connecting...' but it never really connects. Moreover, when phone is in DOWNLOAD mode even ODIN cannot connect.
Maybe someone had a similar problem or has an idea how it could be solved. It would be very helpful.

Believe me I did. I have tried solutions that i have found in this forum and what i have found in Google. However, nothing helped. There are many different cases in this situation and I hope that I have missed something or at least some one could tell me is this my PC's problem or phone's
kies is a buggy program & this shows more on win7 x64 which is very particular about the driver behavior, I just lost phone connection & now cant get it to connect.
+1 I have a quad-core running W7x64 and Kies takes about 30 seconds just to load. It's so ridiculously slow and has only ever detected my phone twice.
Hopefully you can find a 32-bit laptop or PC to use temporarily.
As an aside... a VM such as XP Mode may help as you could install XP 32-bit and connect the USB through to the VM guest? Unsure if this would help so may be useless advice
The latest Kies loads and finds phone on my X64 but did not before .
Clear your USB drivers .

I just want to know how to get into this "PC Studio" mode Kies mentions everytime I start it up. Its really ticking me off cuz I want to get the latest firmware on there but I can't seem to figure out how....
Download latest Kies from Samsung .
Connect phone using Kies mode selected on phone .
Connection fails its worth setting phone to USB mass storage mode and let the drivers install .
Tools Firmware upgrade . PC Studio nothing to do with firmware upgrade its an older version of Kies type software .
Android 2.2 next upgrade was 2.2.1 but not all network phone providers have updated to 2.2.1 as most are waiting for the release of 2.3 .So dont go looking for 2.3 its not on the servers .

Hi, I had the same problem, in another forum someone said start kies on your PC and then plug your usb in, it worked for me.

[Q] hspl problem - error 260: Connection

Hi,
as the title suggests I have problem flashing HSPL. I've already done everything the original thread says when encountering USB problems e.g. other USB port or cable. I have also installed the "enablerapinew.cab" and used both manual and automatic mode of "Topaz-HardSPL_V5_09R6.exe". I have tried using "SSPL-Manual-TopazV5_09.exe" as well.
I already created a ticket adressing that problem a few days ago but haven't received any answer yet. (Ticket #458139)
The result ALWAYS is that as soon the phone shows the SSPL screen - no matter how it was brought to that state - the connection to the PC is lost. Windows Mobile Center then shows it as not connected. Before that it was always connected and synced perfectly fine. As a result I get "Error 260: CONNECTION".
I have Win 7 Pro 64x and no access to an XP PC.
Would be great if anyone could help since I have no idea what else I can try to make it work.
you need drvupdate-amd64 to be able to reconnect the device to the PC

When I try to install the file, it says I already have a newer version installed. Do I need to uninstall the version I have to be able to install this one or does that mean I have a different problem?
EDIT:
I downloaded the most recent version from Windows' Homepage and it worked!! Problem solved, thank you very much

Kies download firmware fine, but the phone dosnt update , now 3 try waited for 1 hour now, and the update meter is still 0 %.
The phone shows " Downloading do not turn off target " .
Well anybody , am i missing anything here.
My latest wave 8500 updated fine trough kies.
ps. did af total reinstall after disposing my old wave phone.

Try to reinstall the drivers in kies.
There is a option connection problem.
Try another usb port.
Try another cable.
If you got the option, try anther pc/laptop
Sent from my GT-I9001 using XDA App
Same thing happened to me the first time ever i tried to update through kies, i can suggest the same thing suggested by outbrood: try using another usb port or another pc.

I had exactly the same.. stop using Kies and go for Odin!
ok Tried on my wifes pc today, and the same thing happens. i can see kies is downloading, and preparing, the phone turns on with a little green guy, and now stock at 0%. the pc isn´t frozen, and taskman tells my both kies and firmware update is running.
How long does it normaly take to update the phone. im at over 1 h. now and nothing had happend.
About odin, is future update through kies still possible.
Remember my old wave phone, after manualy update , kies then complaind about not been able to update to my phone, cause wrong firm installed.
Yes but what does it care? Kies is known as a bad flashing tool. Odin is much better.. If you are using Win7 x64 you can forget using Kies properly. I suggest you just backup your numbers using kies and then start using Odin.
Odin is much better. Kies bricks phones.

When I first updated my phone through Kies it took about 15-20 minutes, if you want to update your phone using Stock Rom (that is the ROM you're trying to update throgh kies - you have to take note of the number and letters before updates) i advice you too to use Odin.
Ok ill give odin a go.
Does odin clear all settings and apps installed, like MultiLoader did when flashing my wave.
I know about falshing the right firmware, it was a ***** to get my hands on Danish firm to the old wave, hope i more luck finding the latest in danish for the Galaxy.
Right now im very very happy that i flushed that sammy wave the galaxy is so much faster and fun to use.
thanks for replying. Odin it is.
A friend just managed to update his SGS+ via Kies after 12 or something hours of failed attempts (he did try everything from drivers to USB port and cable)
The official update stopped mid-download at a random percentage every time.
His PC was running Win7 x64 and on his final attempt he used another computer with Win XP that did the trick.
The good thing after this adventure of his was that all the apps, messages and settings were kept.
wonder if a virtual xp inside win7 32bit , would do the job.

Quite risky in my opinion, as USB has to be connected through virtualization layers. This might work without any issues but could cause severe problems as well.
I personally tried to connect with KIES from a Win XP vm running on Win7 x64 natively (with vmware Workstation) and it did not work properly.
Tried it several times and with various boots and settings.
But I may have been too impatient, on my netbook KIES also needed several attempts to get connected to the phone.
In the end, I flashed with Odin, that worked right at the first attempt.
If you have Windows 7 on 32 bits you can update via Kies.I updated my phone without any problems when I was using stock ROM.I now just use it for backup.
Windows 7 32 bit never faced this type of problem but yups my friend bricked his phone while updating through kies so be careful also
