[Q] prob with download mode

hello i found this forum great for mod my samsung galaxy s here i found a lot of thinks.
but here is my problem i have already install the samsung kies and android sdk, but when i trie to update my phone with kies the process run normally until it come the time that kies put the phone in download mode, there i receive a messege on the windows task bar like i have disconnected the phone and then it says that "error unknow device" and the upgrade on kies cant go on.
any help plz thanks
i have a att galaxy s rooted
windows 7 32bit
latest version of kies

First thing to try is test each of the different usb ports on your computer - if you get the same error on each port then my first instinct would be to reinstall the samsung drivers for your computer.
If you try reinstalling the drivers below is a link to the drivers that have worked the best for me.

thanks for your replay. i already have uninstall the drivers and reinstall them with no success, but i will try to test it in other usb port and report later

this is soo bad i have try both of you recomendations and still says usb device not recognize. then it says no driver was install and when i click that it says on the driver part that windows have stop the device for a error code 43.
i have search a lot and i havent find anything close to my problem can anyone else give recomendations on this or tell me if you know something similar to this happend to other users.
ps - i also try on a win xp 32 with the same result

[Q] No driver when on Download Mode

When I plug the device in download mode or when I try to update via Kies and the device is sent to download mode, Device managers says there's no drivers (unknown device)
Running latest Kies on Windows 7 x86
Someone could give me a hand there?
Either post where the drivers should be (check in device manager while in download mode and check drivers details) or tell me what should I do.
Thanks!

google the latest USB driver for Samsung mobile phones. DL it, install it and Odin should see your phone afterwards

Isn't those the same as when installing Kies?

Kies is an app not a driver. Ideally, KIES should also install the driver but I'm guessing yours got corrupted in the process.

[Q] kies connection error

why my kies cannot connect to my computer?

check if driver are installed on PC or not
this is a very common problem.

Are you trying to connect via wifi or USB? If its USB try troubleshooting the connection on Kies, on your PC. It'll reinstall drivers automatically.

boss ill try it a couple times but cant read my device i want to reflash my tab is bricked....uhuhuh

many has done it.
As long as you can go to download mode, you are not bricked.
remember to have it charged for at least 4hrs.
Just connect it to Odin preferably at the same USB port as the one you used before.
Reboot it to download mode while data cable is connected, then try Odin.

Connecting in Download Mode
I had the same problem when i changed laptop. So on my new machine, the PC would not recognize my P1000 in the download mode. I was running win xp.
The problem was that it wasn't able to automatically locate the drivers. No wonder it wasn't. The drivers aren't built in to xp driver cache. So here is what you need to do:
Download Samsun Kies from samsung website. Do a search on google and you'll get to it.
Once downloaded, install Samsung Kies. No need to run it or anything. Once downloaded, plug that tab in download mode to USB of PC, and it will get detected and the drivers will get installed.
I still have KIES installed, but i never used it, i just installed it for the drivers.
Let me know if this helped.

Hi Dude,
Instead of installing Kies on your XP or windonws 7 for only driver, you can install driver using below guide.
Go to Google and search as Galaxy Tab Driver and go...Click Modaco Website & then Download.

Overcome's GB-stock-safe-v5 zip package contains USB drivers too, both 32bit and 64bit.
But the best is of course in linux, just a single line of definition in udev.

same here - SOLVED
I had the same problem (not recognized).. What I did to resolve the problem by:
1. Re-install Samsung USB drivers (got from here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981)
2. Set the tab in DL mode and connect to the PC... wait for windows to install drivers.... DONE!
3. Startd Odin_v1.83.. CONNECTED!!! (seen by yellow COM#)
Hope this helps.. HIT THANKS PLS!

Cannot connect to Kies: neverending "connecting"

I've latest KIES version, the tab is rooted and cwmodded but stock rom. When I try to connect it to kies I get a neverending "connecting", so basically it never establishes a connection. I tried reinstaling drivers and with and without debug usb, but no luck. Do you have any clue?

Problem with KIES
My tablet is not rooted, it have stock rom, haven't changed anything. I have installed latest KIES on my laptop with Win 7 x64. When I try to connect my tablet to PC, I can access it's contains, but if I try to connect to KIES it say: Cannot start service on the device. Please disconnect and reconnect the device. I try that too, but every time it's the same. I have tried to re-install KIES couple of times, but it's always the same story... Anybody have some ideas?

I able to connect in the pass, that was how I get android 3.1 upgraded to 3.2

I had the same issue, then I reinstalled the drivers, REinstalled KIES and there even was some messing around in "services". for WIFI connection thou, but it fixed my connection issue via cable.

When I bought my "8.9 tab wifi only"and plugged it up for the first time i had no problems using kies. It updated to 3.2 the NEVER worked again.Once you install kies it installes your drivers. If you uninstall kies it will ask if you want to keep the drivers or uninstall them."KEEP THE DRIVERS" I don't use kies at all. I use drag-n-drop to transfer files.You may also notice at times when moving files"mostly video" that windows explorer will crash"may just be my p.c." but a way around that is to simply zip the file,move it to your device,unzip from device using a file manager,I use "file manager HD"

Galaxy Tab 8.9 not connecting to Kies
Same problem here, Connected first time to Kies but since updating Kies I have never been able to connect.
Uninstalled and Reinstalled various times, restarting computer but still inop.

kies has many problems in its own software... ur pc can see it very well... samsung released a "Piece of Cr*P" software to just show themselves... Kies isnt really useful for anything rather than updates and syncronizing...
I saw someone posted a quote from samsung about the kies problem, and the only answer was its kies thats messing, not the tablet
I had this problem and I fixed it by reinstalling kies and basically enabling WIFI synk from pc (Kies setup guide) and after that it works from the USB.
(sorry for typos)

I had a similar problem but I ended up downloading the latest version of keis first. I also checked to make sure my computer was up to date with the latest usb drivers. After an update the Samsung keis software recognized my tab and was up and running.

first you should have usb debugging off
second, I tried all sorts of solutions (like uninstall/ install back again for kies or drivers and so on). I think there is a problem with the drivers.
If you plug in your tab, go to device manager and look for unknown devices or so (entries with exclamation marks and so )
I got it installed as samsung composite usb but also got part of the drivers not being correctly installed ( PCI flash memory having exclamation mark)
the only solution I found was to factory reset the tab. I did this and the tab is now recognized by Kies via USB without doing any additional work to the drivers or kies installation
latest kies version as of the post date, Windows 7 professional x64.
I still don't know if it was some wrong setting for an app or the firmware itself had something messed.
by the way, the tab was only 2 weeks old and it didn't connect from the very first time although the tab was just out of the box with no root/CWM recovery. just everything stock with normal apps and it didn't connect.

it happen to my nexus, but when I change to other PC, it working fine.. my 8.93G connecting very good for this moment and hope it will till i sell it..
