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.

Hello ppls.
I've read some similar threads about this problem, tried some solutions, didn't worked and they didin't really had my situation.
So lets begin. My phone isn't recognized by my computer of anysort. When i plug the device i get this error: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) .Tried solutions for the error with no succes.
I run Windows 7 64 bit,4gb Ram, Intel Quad Core 2,2 Ghz. I downloaded the drivers for the device from samsung, bummer when i manually try to update the drivers and set the path to where the drivers are it says The device is already up to date,even with online search.
What i've tried so far:
1. Tried in normal condition with KIES. Debugging off.
2. Debuggind on. Same
3. Different PC with windows 7 32 bits, same error, same solutions that don't work
4. Updating .Net framework
5. Installing a program that automaticly detects drivers. It didnt even see it.
6. Checking the cable for corrosion or anything else faulty. Cleaned it even.
7. Yelling are the stupid phone !!
Thank you.

Have you tried with a different USB cable?
No because i connected succesfully my friends galaxy fit with it, so the cable is not the problem.
thry manualy installing galaxy s drivers on pc?
Uninstall and reinstall the drivers.
Try different drivers.
Make sure you're using a Samsung wrong with the Samsung drivers.
Use a different PC.
Keep trying!
I gave up...I tried everything.Spent hours of searching forums and applying solution, nothing works... Tried On 3 different pc's. 1 with win 7 64bit, and the rest win 7 32 bit. I can't manually install the drivers either. Says there are already up to date when i set a location for the drivers to detect...I can't even use it as mass storage.

To try using different drivers you would need to uninstall the current driver.
And just to be sure, you didn't flash to CM7/MIUI recently, not realizing Samsung drivers won't recognize your phone anymore, right? Nexus S drivers for those ROMs.
Its on the original ROM i think. Recently bought it second hand, 1 year old.
I couldn't find different drivers...except 32 bit and 64bit, but they all are the same version. Maybe post a link or something. Mine are 1.4.4.
Firmware version: 2.3.3
Baseband version i9000XXJVO
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-i9000xwjvh - CL184813 [email protected] #Dark_core_2.4 Mon May 16 15:02:38 EEST 2011
Build Number: DarkyRom JVH v10.1
SOLVED. The problem was from the ROM Darky 10.2. I went to a service did a resoft donno how they do it, installed me the original gingerbread 2.3.4 and now works like a charm!

Just for future reference, this site is filled with tutorials on how to do just that. In fact, that is what this site is all about—new ROMs, new ideas, and how to get them onto your device. Look around next time.

Dude i'm not the kinda of guy that doesn't research first. Like i mentioned i tried everything i found with no effect. The thing is, the problem reappeared after a day, with the new rom. Took it back to the service, said its a virus from some apps i installed...Is it possible? Thing is, it worked even after i restored all my apps.
I couldn't change the rom either because neither Odin or Heimdall saw my phone, if that is what you reffered to. If you know how to resoft a phone without the pc recognizing it (not even as a composite USB device in download mode or debugmode) and just Showing in Odin or Heimdall "Unknown Device" and failed at installing ClockworkMod, be my guest and redirect me to the tutorial, or tell me how to do it.
Thx

How can i use Mobile Odin if i can't root it?
Anyway the problem has been identified as the driver behind the usb slot of the phone, At least that what the guy at the service said...for the moment i'm waiting. I'll keep you posted.

Throw it against the wall then. You ask us for help, disregard all of it, and then update us on what the service desk told you. If you will only listen to them, then don't ask us, kay? Appreciated.
Hi, there.
Actully, the rahbert's question is not bad. How can i use Mobile Odin if i can't root the device?
Or, how can I root without PC? Is it possible? I have exactly the same problem:
Nexus S (I9020), ICS 4.0.4(stock). When I plug the device: the error is reported(Code 43).
Should I try wipe data/factory reset? I really don't want to do this, because there is another good question: How can I fully backup my data(Titanium and so on) without root access? Can you suggest me something? Thanks.

Hi there, I'm new here. Did alot of reading on rooting etc. Very helpfull.
I basically downloaded the latest version of Samsung Kies today (for future updates), but the program will not startup. I uninstalled/reinstalled a couple of times but after I double click on the icon, windows (7) loads for a couple of seconds and then nothing happens.
After like 2 minutes or so something like a start screen appears out of the blue and disappears after another 2 minutes. Nothing happens after that.
In the task manager Kies and KiesTrayAgent appear in the processes list (not in the application list) though.
I tried to run them both (and even the ConnectionManager that pops up on it's own after I try to open Kies) as admin AND in compatibility (hope I spelled that right) mode but that doesn't work. When I select the ConnectionManager to run as admin only and then try to open Kies, the following appears:
http ://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y107/Ismarovic/error.jpg (can't post images yet, remove gap after the http in the link and paste)
I tried searching everywhere, but I just can not find a solution anywhere.
Can anyone help?
Sorry for the bad English.
Cheers!
edit: I do have a Note btw, that's why I posted here.
Anyone please?
Thanks!
What version of Kies are you using?? Try another version(Maybe one step down to latest).
Try opening the software without connecting the phone...

SAMSUNG Kies v2.2.0.12014_18_8 is the latest version. I tried installing previous versions and then I get a Runtime Error display or something.
I never tried opening Kies with my Note connected to the computer.

Then give it a shot with your note connected!! (That wont make much of a difference as Kies in not initializing properly, but you never know )
Just wanted to know has it ever worked for you on this computer??
It can be an OS issue as well, can you try on a different machine??
Cause once I was getting issues with Kies on my Dell Inspiron, so tried it on another machine and the same installation file worked perfectly for me.
I did an OSRI on my Dell Inspiron and the same installer worked for me on Inspiron as well.
So in that case it was Windows OS to be blamed, so first try to install the same latest installer on another win7 machine and see if it works!!
Then take it from there!!
Click Thanks if it Helped!!

Didn't work with the Note connected.
And I want to use Kies for the first time so I never tried it before on my pc. And I'm pretty sure Kies works on other systems because there are alot of people using it without a problem hehe. Unfortunately I don't have a laptop or something.
I mean I could download and install in on another system that's not mine, but the whole point is that I want to use it on my own pc. I know there has to be a way to fix it.
Thanks anyway .
Delete KIES, both program as install file. Run Ccleaner (or any other registry cleaner). Download KIES again (maybe you just had a flawed download). Reinstall and try again.

Yeah I guess that would do the job. I installed KIES on my parents laptop and it works fine, so I guess I'll stick to that, only thing is I have to travel like an hour or so lol. I don't think it's worth to do a full OSRI just for KIES or maybe I'm just lazy, but at least I have access to the program.
Thanks for your help!!

Before ppl start asking me, this is what happened. I gave my Cappy to my daughter and after months of running Dlev Rom, I decided to upgrade to ICS. She was not happy with the rom and wanted to go back to gingerbread. I tried downgrading via recovery but had issues with the downgrade. Long story short....ignorant me, I used Odin and end it up with eclair.
Now here is where the problem started. The phone was succesfully flashed with eclair but button combo wasnt working at all. So, I rooted first and then with adb, I adb reboot download, then once in download, I flashed ginger bootloaders and thats how i end it up with the infamous phone /!\ comp. soft brick. Since originally i had no button combo working, I cant get into download mode. My comp just wont recognize the Cappy.
I have searched for hours and tried all ways possible to get into DL mode but "nada"! Even with Odin opened or heimdall, batt out, batt in, all combinations of buttons...nada (nothing), no luck. Also tried the program by Adam to unbrick the Cappy (that I've found searching) but still nada! I have windows 7 with java and that program by Adam just wont work on my comp.
Can someone try to help me on what can I do without sending my daughter's Cappy to a shop...lol?
Edit: In this post I explain what got "me" out of the softbrick after 2 days of trying! It might not work for who ever falls in a similar situation and even mayb is not a proper way of doing things, but it worked on my end!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26305016&postcount=23
You can use that screen as a download mode.
Remove Java. And then go download Java JRE.
Java JRE 32 bit
Java JRE 64 bit
Try going and grabbing the Heimdall KK4 1 click. Or you could try any of the Gingerbread Heimdall packages in the OneClick Master Collection
I think you'll be fine to run Heimdall after the Java reinstall.

Try this:
Take out battery
Plug in usb cable

This should take you straight into download mode. Just have to flash a new ROM/Stock Image

The [Phone /!\ Computer] screen is another method of Download Mode. You should still get Odin to recognize the phone. If Odin recognizes the phone, you should flash KI2 from This thread, since it has CWM injected. Once you have CWM, you have a clean slate to install any ROM you desire.
If Odin does NOT recognize you phone no matter which USB port you connect the phone to (as it happened to me once), you could try what I did. I downloaded Windows installer for Ubuntu Desktop, and that got me Linux. Once I had Linux, flashed KB2 from the ROM thread linked above. Why Linux? Because I never got Heimdall to work on Windows, but I did on Linux. After my phone was completely stock, I followed the instructions on TRusello's Guide to Flashing ANY ROM to get my phone set up the way I wanted.
I'm sure there are faster ways than the one I just gave you, but I can vouch that my method works, and you might get your phone sorted out while you wait for a better response. Good luck!
That will teach me to edit my post without refreshing first!

Yeeee....finally someone with a good heart and willing to share knowledge!!! And BTW, yes I tried all usb ports. The difference between your comp and mine is that I can run heimdall but like I said, way i plug the usb, my comp nor heimdall and/or Odin recognize the phone after the brick.
I'm not home at the moment but thank you from the bottom of my heart for your info. I'll get home kind of late tonight but I will follow your info to the tee and keep u post it...if u dont mind!

Heimdall and odin use different drivers, Once you install Heimdal and use your phone on a USB port, that USB port will only work with Heimdall. Odin will no longer work on that USB port, Until you uninstall the heimdall drivers

Short and sweet...i installed ubuntu last night on my pc and I thought i lost windows. Did some search and I can choose when my pc start up either W7 or ubuntu. Went to bed at 4am trying to install java to ubuntu with no luck. To b honest, i'm about to quit trying to get this phone in DL mode. My daughter hates me and my husband told me, u messed it up...u fix it! Agh!!!!! I'm trying again but if I cant get it to work I rather just buy my kid a new phone....and thats a shame because that Cappy has been a warrior!
Any other method to get DL mode??? PLEASE...SOMEONE????
Once you're at that screen, it is download mode. You could try a jig. You can build one or buy one.
Did you reinstall java on Windows 7 and then try Heimdall?

Neither one recognize the device. With Odin you're supposse to see the yellow light meaning its connected...but nothing, and with heimdall clearly says disconected. I am sooo exausted looking for an answer as to what to do to get this phone on DL mode! I've used both programs in the past but the phone just dont want to come alive!
I understand how frustrating it can be to get a phone to respond.
I went back to your first post to make sure I didn't miss anything and I realized what the issue might be. Since the phone was upgraded to ICS it wouldn't be using the standard captivate drivers any more.
Let's try this:
Download and install the Android SDK
Add the Google USB Driver
Try ODIN/Heimdall again.
I think I had a similar issue when I was reverting a phone from CM7 back to Stock captivate.

Ok...thats it! That did not work either. I connected my SGS II just to see if my pc would recognize the phone, and indeed my pc picked up the device as well as my husband's Sensation. So thats it!

Well...thank you! Don't know if i should keep DLing stuff to my pc. Now I have ubuntu, sdk manager, hemidall, dont know how many odins, etc. My husband just ask me for a new pc because he tried to uninstall ubuntu and he was unsuccesfull at it. Now this softbrick is gonna cause me some major issues family wise. This really sucks! But hey, me been a female, I just learned that nothing is impossible for us. If my hubbie dont wanna help me...I'll get it done one way or another. I will see my daughter smile....believe that!!!!!
Thank you!
I have a 2.5 year old daughter and would do anything to see her smile.
Here is a guy here on XDA who makes the jigs. However, I still believe you just have a driver issue. At this point I can only say to take off all the drivers, odin, and heimdall and start fresh.

I used his kindle fire cable and it was great.
I own a Galaxy S GT-i9000( bought at SFR)
When I connect it to computer I get the prompt that tells to choose between Storage, Kies...
But whatever I choose the computer tells me USB Device not recognised.
Now I was stupid enough to do the following:
I managed to root using Z4root by copying the APK file on external sd .
I got rom manager and updated my recovery.
I updated using the CM10-unofficial rom that is in the development forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775169
The Mobile Network was not working so I did the following
I restored the nand that i did in recovery and now the phone is frozen on the first boot screen (Galaxy S GT-i9000 SCREEN)
Now I can go to Download mode but I can't go to recovery mode.
Let me remind you that my USB data connection is not working. So even though I enter into the Download mode I am not able to use Odin. If you know somthing that I am not doing, let me know.
So now I am looking for a solution that would permit me to flash without USB or allow me to go to recovery mode. Or a tutorial on how to change the usb port myself.
Thanks in advance.

You can try using Mobile Odin.
Also, you can try Heimdall method: https://www.fixmystuff.in/FMS_Forum...-flashing-to-original-rom-using-heimdall.126/
Hey
have you tried to connect it in Download mode??
Need more solutions
Thanks again to all of you that have answered me so fast.
Well I just finished trying all that you suggested.
unfortunately am still at the same point. Whatever I do, whatever drivers am putting in, cleaning inside the USB port with methylated spirit... Not getting Odin or Kies to detect it.
I read somewhere that when the data connection works, I should see the device named Samsung Device even before installing the drivers, but all I am getting is Unknown device. I still went ahead uninstalling and installing the drivers you provided and there is no successful outcome so far.
I still have faith. I have a little knowledge in electronics. I can open my phone and get to the usb port. My problem is I don't get any tutorial on how to replace the usb port. The thing is the connections are very tiny. I can also do with a bypass way that could make me install a 2nd usb port temporarily just long enough to flash the phone.
Or a hardware solution if I have to remove and flash a specific IC in a certain manner.
Thank you in advance.

hi there,
after doing alot of stuff to your phone that wasnt nessacary i'm not surprised it doesnt work er sorry . the only thing i can think of is the following whenever i have a problem with windows i go to linux, which is faster , much more efficient . so i suggest that you install linux ( ubuntu the best ) and try using odin with the linux version, it often detects things that windows doesnt see. other than that sorry cant think of anything else .
see ya
Trying it

It doesn't change anything.
Am back to my start point.
Thank you though.
Anything Else?
Does anyone have something else to suggest or I should consider my phone dead?
Look like a quite number of people are having this same issue and haven't got over it.
I just hang on and appeal to all of you cos I know XDA is the best place where I can get a solution.
Lemme know any suggestion... even the ones you are not sure can help. Am willing to do anything.
Thanks again all of you.
