[Q] 'GT-N8010' does not support initialising - Galaxy Note 10.1 General

I'm on stock UK firmware but when I connect to Kies it doesn't give me the option to check for latest firmware? when i click on "firmware upgrade and initialisation" I get the error in the title of this thread? kies doesn't even show what firmware I'm running unless I connect with internet dongle unplugged, I'm running latest kies on windows 8 64bit and I get the error "the ordinal 7170 could not be located in the dynamic link library c:\program files (86)\ Samsung\kies\kiestrayagent.exe"
any ideas?

I've done that the last 3 times a new version of kies came out, I'm not on an upgrade of windows 8 I'm on a clean install

Some modded ROMs have Kies removed?
Windows 8 may be the problem?
Turn on/off USB debugging?
Try another USB port?
Don't use a USB hub.

same thing happened to me.....im on windows 8....im glad that I flashed german ics and got ota update

no solution then?

Kies is a very flaky program. I never rely on it. This is the main reason i learned to download and flash official roms instead of waiting for updates via Kies. My hunch is that Samsung still has to improve the program for compatibility and stability on Windows 8. If you want to know what's the latest firmware version for your country try going to sammobile.com. They're pretty good at keeping a list of up-to-date firmwares (even beta leaks) which you can download and flash on your tablet.
Just my 2 cents.

Not so good anymore, the 8010 updates are nowhere on sammobile.
I was actually thinking that my device really doesn't support initialising lol.

Kies Firmware Upgrade suggestion for TAB ?

downloaded the latest KIES on the german samsung homepage (version 1.5.3.10092.58) release date 18.10.2010 !
attached the TAB with my current firmware JID and was suprised about the followed upgrade suggestion (attachement)...
has anybody the same thing in kies - and/or has anybody tried installing this one?
good news...... i will connect the tab as soon as i go home and see if its asking to upgrade...
did you hit the upgrade button?
I can't connect to KIES. It says that I should turn on PC Studio connection mode.
Can anybody help with that?

is your debugging mode enabled? or or you pressing the home screen after connecting the tab to PC?
in both the cases, kies will not connect
No. It isn't enabled. BTW, KIES recognizes Debug mode and asks to switch to PC studio. Tried that.
I neither touch home, nor do anything. I tried to reinstall drivers etc. Nothing helps.
Could it be a side effect of rooting process I performed yesterday?
This is the only thing that comes to my mind. I wasn't able to install it on my other computer. Installation failed. I will try my wife's notebook tonight. But it runs W7 and it would be not so fare comparison.
I use the kies on windows 7 and my tab is rooted too. No prob so far.

NPS (New PC Studio)

I will uninstall Kies and give this version a try... J
OMG -.- this NPS doesnt support Windows 7
and: the Galaxy Tab is not supported
Isn't NPS super old?
I believe it was the software Samsung used before switching to Kies...

must be like you say, but the site doesnt match your info. For me its my first sammy device so cant confirm the build date of this NPS
I installed this under WinXP Pro SP3 and it indicates NPS v1.5.10064_2. However, it still doesn't work right. I get the message "An unregistered model has been connected. Communications cannot proceed." But it does see the mass storage devices.

Mini Kies Status Topic

For the longest time, Mini Kies said "Unregistered Device". I plugged it in now, and it says...
Firmware Version: Latest Firmware
Firmware Upgrade: 11/01/22
Does that mean that my device will be able to be upgraded on the 22nd? (tomorrow)
Will others please check their Kies?
I checked mine this morning and again just now and still says unregistered device. But I am also sporting KA6 so that may be the issue.
What rom you running?

For whatever that means.
(I'm on pure stock, unrooted JI6)
I am running stock JI6. This device has never been rooted or flashed. It was a replacement when my old one broke, it came prebuilt with J16 on it.
Where can I find the kies that works with the vibrant? The one I found on Google said my device was not compatible.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I am also running KA6 and get the unregistered device on mini kies.
On Twitter there's a lot of talk about Froyo being pushed via Kies rather than OTA so.. who knows. No confirmation on there either if anyone has gotten it.
Well, on my old device I used Mini Kies to get JI6 because it seemed like forever to receive it OTA. Hopefully they do it the same way this time with froyo.
Im just odin'ed back to stock. When I did kies gave me the latest firmware update which restored my phone to like it was when I got it a few weeks ago. Now kies says unregistered device. Is this normal? Will I be able to update to the new firmware?
Update: Now showing I have latest version 11/01/2010.

Kies for MAC (OS X)

Just to let you know that kies for Mac's been released yesterday and it's available for download from Samsung website.
Seems to be exact copy (at least UI) of Windows version.
Is it fully functional, like Win version? Last time I tried to use KIES mini on my iMac and get the information, that my phone (SGS2) is not supported.
Thanks for news, will download as soon as I get home.
Fully functional. Exactly like Kies on Windows

Thank you, i'll try it later!
Hopefully Mac version will be more reliable than PC, which is very buggy...
Wow, I was DLing this in the morning (awaiting for my device) and did not even realize its the newest version.
Thanks.
Am I missing something or is there no way to upgrade the phone firmware?
Well the Mac version only has options to Sync Music/Videos/Podcasts. Thats it.
Theres no Samsung App Store inbuilt and also I don't see any option for Firmware Download settings or Emergency Firmware Recovery or Install Drivers settings.
So the Mac version seems highly limited in comparison to Windows one.
Check the screenshot below for a side by side view :

Well, I heard, that Odin is a service tool and there is an "inside counter", that tell the service (when you give phone on guarantie), that you've used it x times. I'm new to Android (I had i4 until last week) and still learning and I'm quite afraid to use Odin. Can I brick phone using odin?

Can you brick a phone using a firmware-flashing utility which let's you overwrite your phone's internal drives with random binary files? Yes.
That said, I find Odin much easier and much more reliable than Kies.

For some reason my says that already has the latest version which is 2.0.0.11044_11. Well it is not for some reason, it is for Kies reason..
Done the update and plugged in my phone (KE7) on the off chance of a further firmware upgrade but still states it's the latest one.
But it did connect to the phone right away which normally never happens.
Updated Kies but no new firmware.
In the SGS days (not that long ago) a new version of Kies was often just a few days before some nice new firmware releases.
Keeping the hope up, but we'll see..........

2.3.4 does not require a kies update for it to be downloaded or installed. Kies uses a specific protocol to communicate with your phone. Update is usually to add features or speed up things, improvements etc.

I thought that for those like me still not ready to root their devices can only update to 2.3.4 can only do so through Kies or go to a Samsung service center, or is there any other means?
My Kies bugs out every time I try to update, says the internet is not connected.
It also downloads more files than it is expected whilst retrying internet connection (eg. 54000/40000 KB).
Can anyone post a link to directly download the install file instead of using the update feature?

I know it's already rolling out in the UK. I check every day and haven't found out anything. They usually don't announce it either, so my guess is before the end of 2012.

Here is the quote from Samsung Stuff authorized to answer questions online:
"There is no official firmware for any tablets. If you are using Kies and are not prompted to install any updates, there are none currently available for your device. A newer firmware may be installed on newer tablets at the factory, but we can only recommend you use Kies to obtain updates."
hey, Kies just offered me 4.1.1 on both our GT-P5113's! rockin and rollin.
it seems to have wiped the cf-root I had just done to 4.0.4
dont' care, too much new jellybean goodness to wanna mess with the magic just yet. :silly:
p.s. US model, regsistered here in California, using USB to connect to Kies on my PC.

Alrighty then, how does one use this Kies thing?? Does it mean I need to boot into windows? ugh if it does...
Also is there supposed to be something on the tablet already for kies? Or just the pc...
I guess I will try to boot windows in a little bit.
Can anyone confirm successful update through kies with a rooted device (p5113) and cwm recovery?
Can you also post a screenshot of device info, firmware/kernel etc?

I had /just/ installed cf-root on my 4.0.4 when I discovered this, I haven't messed with cwm recovery so I'm not sure what that is, if it came in with the cf-root stuff, then I guess so. (kind of new to rooting)
here's the screenshot...
arrrgh, as a noob, I can't post pictures or links?!? k, take out all the spaces.

to the other question, Samsung Kies (pronounced kees) is windows based, and requires USB connection to do firmware updating, over wifi it won't even try. past that, I know nothing. I fired up Kies on my win8 desktop, plugged in the USB cable, it connected, and announced there was an update, do I want it. it downloads and installs the update automatically when you say 'yes'.
I've updated two P5113's now, mine (was root kitted but isn't at moment) and my wife's (not root kitted), both went smoothly.
(CWM) ClockworkMod recovery, it or twrp recovery is a custom recovery which is required to flash zip files ie ROMs, kernels and mods. I didn't do the cf root method, I installed cwm in Odin and then flashed a zip to get root access. I am familiar with kies, my question though, is it OK to run this update without the stock recovery etc?

Yes, it is. P5113 Jelly Bean update on Kies (U.S.)
Argh.... now to keep working on getting windows to boot so I can try kies... silly vista and having to run the startup repair in order to boot.. so sad either sit through hours of updates that take over the computer to all ends including rebooting many times, or sit through now 2 hours and counting of trying to run over and over again the repair boot CD testing if it worked or not and if not running it again. One time it took me 7 times running the CD in order to boot into windows....
Wish there was more support for other operating systems to include linux....
Alrighty then... finally got into windows and downloaded and installed kies but now in rebooting before trying to update as thing's were not working after the install of kies so rebooting.. but guess what.. typical windows garbage now having to run the boot fix yet again... might be able to get the update done by the end of the week at this windows rate...
Finally on jelly bean... only took 3 hours give or take 15 minutes.. main problem was and will always be windows...
now to connect to see if kies recognizes it now

can't say I *EVER* ran Vista, but winXP, win7, win8 have never given me any such problems on dozens and dozens of systems.
the reason noone supports Linux is that Linux is not an operating system, its a collection of parts, no two systems are quite the same. resolving binary library version dependencies is a mess, unless everything is source code and gets custom compiled by the end user, and even then there are endless possible problems... oh wait, you have the wrong version Qt, and python 2.5 but we need 2.3 and .... arrrrrrgh. is the desktop gnome 2 or gnome 3 or kde X.Y or TWM or ..... ARRRRRRGH. Are the startup scripts debian or redhat or gentoo or .... <headbutt on desk>
personally, I wish that FreeBSD was more popular. far less insanity there.
anyways, off topic rant.
