Firmware Over The Air upgrade is available at last. There is also now a MAC version of the dreaded Kies. I am not sure if it is safe to use it though. Please Help me out to connect my phone to PC. I like your exereme end result getting touch! Apologies for the late replies, BT is even worse than Samsung! I can't advocate this as a sure method but personally, I would probably remove the drivers from my computer and go through the process of getting the computer to recognise the phone and load the drivers all over.
However, this may not solve the problem and might very well make it worse. Rafa, is the phone/computer connection working, can you transfer files and otherwise perform normal operations in Kies, Yoann, you're right, it's a long story. Misterjohn, hopefully you'll have no problems, I do agree about Kies, though quite frankly, I've never found connection software to be any good.
Creative was clumsy and limited, Itunes was restrictive and a PITA to remove, Phillips go gear was non functional, Kies is pointless apart from Android updates. The best was Archos G-mini - no software, just a folder. I manage with Kies because I never really use it. Three days ago I bought a Samsung Galaxy S 5.0 - an impulse purchase to complement my iPod Touch (a larger screen - easier to read). I have now strayed into the world of Samsung Kies. How do these people ever keep a job - let along sell mobile phones.
I have friends with Galaxy S phones. The Galaxy S II looks good. But how on earth do they manage with this non-functioning, incomprehensible software. I understand that Galaxy Tab returns are running at seven times the rate of iPads - and I can quite understand why. If I can't get this thing to accept music and videos from either my MacBook or Windows 7 desktop or laptops, back it goes!
It's been a long time since you've posted, but thanks a lot for the link to get the drivers, this worked for me today ! I can't sync my sumsung galaxy to my PC windows xp. I need to download the driver, I'm totally FED UP! I've tried everything that I find but still can't fix the problem.
I was able to use kies once when I just bought SGS, but I had problem not being able to download stuff from market, so I Googled and factory reset my phone. Phone's connected with USB, Phone says "connected" and charging, but pc can't detect phone. Btw I'm stuck after download x86 (32bit) version.
128 is not able to upgrade my phone GT-I5801 to PDA:JP6/PHONE:JP2/CSC:JP6(INU). Your steps were a great help just now! I installed the drive on windows 32 bit and it worked fine (though I ended up with an exe download rather than a zip file, and clicked on the exe to separately install the driver - not from device manager.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to write this up. Hi Ana, Just a guess, but its more likely to be an software fault than a virus. Can you describe what actually happens when you switch the wireless on including any messages about forced closing you get,
Thanks Alibaba, I think you're the first person to report that they got the CDC error too! Of course I got the CDC error as well - but I followed your advise. Cool. You were a blessing. The solution works only for some 32bit Windows and some 64bit windows, it does not seem to work for everybody though. I'm sorry it hasn't worked for you but as the 200 or so comments above may indicate, it hasn't always been successful and without a non working system to experiment with, I've kind of given up.
