I've just updated to 1.5.3.10093_80 and now Kies doesn't connect to my phone.... It just stays at connecting... What to do?
Mine too, on two different computers.
Ok.. It's working now.. I've reinstalled the drivers.. but now I have another problem... I can't save my contacts on my Pc... it says that my device isn't connected... :| Nice software developed by Samsung...
Sorry... It says that the device is in use...
I also get the message, phone is in use when I want do display my contacts on Kies.(I tried an older version of kies and also the latest)
Is there a solution for that?
Maybe it has something to do with themes, because before I installed the ANDRODeNa GaLaSSiA-theme I was able to copy my phone-contacts to my pc via kies.
any suggestions?

So nobody knows how to fix this issue?
have you tried rebooting the PC?
disconect the USB devices first
have you tried rebooting the PC?
disconect the USB devices first
Using Vista 64 I had sucess with:
1. Don't plug your phone to the computer yet.
2. Open Kies, from the settings turn off the options 'automatically start monitoring for device connection when Windows starts' and 'Start Kies automatically when device is connected'. For some reason the MTP installation failed each time Kies was open at the same time.
3. In Kies, click the Kies file menu on top of the application and select Driver recovery. Let it install the drivers, then reboot your computer (I only did this the first time).
4. Once rebooted, Kies shouldn't be running. Then plug your phone to the usb connection and select Samsung Kies mode.
5. Wait for the usb device to be detected and the drivers to be installed. Now the MTP installation shouldn't fail.
6. Start Kies and begin using your phone.
I cant get the firmware to upgrade tho... Kies still sucks.
Yeah Kies is pretty balls.

This site has another interesting fix that worked for me when the uninstalling /reinstalling the drivers didn't work. Its a simple tool that scans your internal and SD card and to show which have too long filenames. You have to manually delete them (usually just thumbnail caches), and then Kies worked fine! Well, worked fine in the sense that it finally detected my device and said I had a firmware update available, and then it crashed when it was downloading
Ok... I understand what you guys said... but my problem isn't that kies wouldn't detect my device... I have no problem with that, my device is detected, but when I hit the save to pc contacts button it says that the device is in use and I can't backup my contacts... :|
Please make sure that Bluetooth AND Sync are both turned OFF. The best way to do this is via the power control widget. Also if you are not using it then change back to the stock TWLauncher for interactions with Kies.

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
EDIT: Here you go...

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.

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.

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.
Please help i just isntalled new ROM for my xperai x8 and now when i restarted it it is stuck at SE logo and stays there.I tried to enter to xrecovery but it cant enter like i dont have xrecovery but i actually do.

This method will install the original software on your X8!
If you have Sony PC Companion 2.1 on your PC, then uninstall it, and download and install Sony PC Companion 2.1, again! If not, then PC Companion might not recognize your phone. After installing do the following:
- Turn off the phone, and unplug it from the PC
- Turn on Sony PC Companion on your PC
- In PC Companion, enter the Support Zone tab
- Go to Update Phone Software
A window will pop out, saying that it cannot find your phone
- Click on Fix Phone
- Click on Continue
A window will pop out, saying that you will lose all your data
- TICK the BOX
- Click on continue
An update process will began.
Wait for it to show a window with all the SONY mobile phones
- Find your phone (X8)
- Click on the phone.
Now all you have to do is follow the on-screen instructions. It will tell you to hold the back button and plug your turned-off X8 to the PC, then it will erase everything, and download the original 2.1 ROM to your X8.

Hey there, my phone isn't bricked...but I think I have too much data (possibly conflicting roms installed at the same time??) and I wish to reset my phone to its original status... I wish to re-install a ROM on it, but I want to start fresh again by removing the rooting programs or what have you..
Would following these steps put it all back to its original setting, also meaning that I could completely wipe the SD clean?
If so, would this mean I would have to re-root my X8? Not that it would be a problem but I would just like to know if it would be needed!
Thanks!

if you want to restore the stock rom (original androdi on xperia x8) with pc Comapnion than you dont need to root it again. But if you want to change it to custom rom and you have done full wipe i think you should root it again (rooting is done so taht you can change the busybox version of the phone and upload xrecovery if you have those you don't need to root)

Why don't you download the store Rom annd use Flashtool to flash it? Then you may be able to upgrade to latest revision with PCC.

Yeah, I lost you somewhere... If after taking out the battery, you CAN NOT enter xrecovery or CWM, then, you either can try THIS THREAD <--- go on, click on it!, or, you have to do what I had to do a couple of times, which is to restore your X8 to its original state, and to do that with Sony PC Companion, you first have to UNINSTALL your current PC Companion!!! THEN, restart your PC, and install a clean version of Sony PC Companion 2.1!
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION of PC Companion, YOU STILL HAVE TO UNINSTALL IT, AND INSTALL IT AGAIN!!! IF YOU DON'T, THERE's a 99% CHANCE THAT PC COMPANION WILL NOT RECOGNIZE YOUR PHONE!!! ...I don't know why, but it's probably some marketing trick, since I once used this method 3 times in a row, then the fourth time PC Companion didn't recognize my X8. This happened on both, the old PC Companion, and the current Sony version 2.1. I tested them both on purpose, to eliminate the possibility that I damaged my X8's hardware somehow, during a high speed impact collision with the bedroom wall...
Once you reinstall Sony PC Companion 2.1, go back to my first post to your problem, and follow it step-by-step.
AND yes, if you want to install custom ROM's again, then you will have to ROOT your phone again, and UNLOCK the BOOTLOADER, etc...
BUT, if it's a soft-brick, then you might be able to redeem yourself

Try downloading the stock rom and a diff version of flashtool. I can't remembet which version is most recommended (try searchibg xda - i read it here). install drivers in flashtool's driver folder (gordon's gate) then try again. Almost the same thing happened to me. PCC won't recognize my phone so I couldn't install the drivers.
X8 stuck at SE logo
I am facing same problem. I have been using GingerDX for long time wanted to change the ROM, however after I change the rom through Xrecovery. Phone restarted and stuck at SE logo.
I tried with SE PC companion but it gives error.
I tried Flashtool, used different ftf file but cant help.
Please help. I am unable to start phone....Please guide me...
Maybe u can also try sus (sony update service). I have experience this n done with sus.

The best way, if u still can't get on your phone , is take it to the SE Customer care. And don't tell a word about rooting or anything. Just ask them to repair the phone, saying that one morning, the SE logo kept on popping up.

Hello,
i have bricked the phone. i flashed nougat 7.1.1 it and saw that it doesnt have my IMEIs so i used chamelephon to fix them , which usually worked on other roms i used but with this one didnt. and then the problems started. i went back to flash again the rom. i formated all system, data, everything and then tried to copy the rom in to the phone but windows dont recongize it anymore. cant install drivers , its unknown device and cant connect the phone to windows to copy the rom. tried sideload but windows does not recongnize a device. cant sp flash it also because when power off and turn it on ,still cant recognize it ... any help ?
fixed it . it had to do with drivers of windows mixed up. i cleaned them and then it got working again.

How u fixed it bro ?
when you install too much drivers some times it does some sh't. so power off the comp not restart it. if it doesnt fix it, there is a an app for PC called driver booster. it has the option to clean all the drivers for not plugged in usb devices. you disconnect all and run this . it will clear every driver that is not in use by any usb device. then when you plug in your devices it will recognize them and find the correct drivers without having problem.
