Hi all, I'm a new user. I've recently installed Kies on my PC but to my dismay, it could not detect the the phone no matter what I did(reinstalled Kies, restarted the phone, PC..etc..)
I've read that it is a crappy program, but without it, how can I update my phone firmware and sync my photos and files? Do I have to manually remove the SD card to transfer the file?
Appreciate some advice...
My phone won't sync with Kies but thats because I am on the JM2 firmware downloaded from the web and I've read it won't sync.
On your phone, have you plugged it in and then selected "Samsung Kies" from the popup or swipedown menu?
Let me just say don't hold your breath. I've been able to connect to my PC through Kies on and off. I've tried all the suggestions and none of them worked for me. As I said, it's completely hit and miss for me as soon as I connect the USB cable to my PC. I don't try anything different each time, it will just for what ever reason decide to connect once in a while. The problem is Samsung needs to develop a better driver. You shouldn't have to use Kies to drag stuff onto your phone. The phone should have no problem being recognized as a mass storage device. But if you don't have a driver that works all the time, then your phone doesn't even get recognized by your PC. Just one quick google on this issue will give you an idea how many people are having problems connecting to Kies/PC. This issue is too big for Samsung to ignore. I'm sure there will be an updated driver soon.
Solution to Kies problem
Hello, gizmondo.fr reported some time ago that the problem is long file extensions (over 16 characters).
You can solve it by finding and deleting all files with very long extensions from your phone. In my case, I deleted a cache of Soundhound.
I think the problem is intermittent due to the fact that the programs sometimes delete their own cache.

I had problem with usb. phone lagged and i havent notticed msg to turn of bluetooth. Try to turn off bluetooth and maybe wifi and then connect to usb.
Guys 2 things here
if you want KiES to sync you need to run the default TwLauncher that came with the phone
if you installed another launcher you can use "Home Switcher" to change back when you want to use KiES

now if you are still having trouble with KiES a great alternative is to use Android Manager via WiFi it's easy and totally painless

I'm also having the same issues and I've tried countless tricks over the past 3 evenings by reading solloutions here and several other forums but without luck, I spoke to a Samsung employee and was told to try to return my unit, but I'm reluctant incase I can make it work cause otherwise I'll have to re-order screen protectors etc (I suck at putting them on and I managed to make it perfect for a change!). So hehe long story short! A list of possible remedies would be nice, another thing also, is that Android Wifi Manager a good replacement for Kies? as in being able to put on official samsung updates etc. (Even though I read countless posts about Odin I still have not the guts to try out anything outside of direct updates through the samsung apps).
The stuff I tried is as follows
1. Change USB settings so that it is not default to kies but ask on connect.
2. Mount/Unmount Internal SD card prior to connecting the device. (No external SD card installed)
3. Format internal SD Card.
4. Reset to default factory settings.
5. Reinstall Kies from a different source file (running latest version if someone can post a link of the supposedly working older version would be great!)
6. Run all the USB modes as I noticed it installs some drivers on the various options.
7. Remove the modem through device manager and reinstall it.
8. Remove Samsung Drivers and reinstall them.
9. Install the microsoft mobile center (mobile drivers)
10. Remove the drivers and re-apply the Samsung ones from a samsung.sg site posted here on site.
11. Tried various USB slots on the computer.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
Edited: Also tried the regedit trick not sure I did it right but Regedit --> DeviceDB --> the one where there is a value of 1 I deleted.
Edited 2: I downloaded an older version (1.5.0.10024_74) and installed it after uninstalling the most recent version, and now I get bsod everytime I try to launch Kies. Agitation levels rising hehe...
I've got Kies to recognize my phone exists but now it is stuck on the "Connecting the device, please wait" popup, has been like that for the last thirty minutes, any advice?
I'm now having this problem that this fella video'd.

It is pointless waiting for it if it does not connect within a minute, just unplug it and try again, like people said, Kies is very 'hit and miss'

The one time i have had a major problem with Kies, it was doing the exact same thing, the problem is some cache, or other file on your internal sd card that Kies does not like. I just went through the files and deleted the cache files and a couple of others and eventually i deleted the correct one and Kies started to work again.
Hey guys, I just registered to suggest you try the only fix that solved my connection problems.
I tried reinstalling drivers and formatting the internal SD multiple times with no success until i inserted my gf's micro sd card from her phone. Windows 7 automatically installed new drivers from the Galaxy and connected back up as normal. I disconnected the usb then removed the external SD after unmounting and has worked fine ever since.
Before you go returning your phones i suggest you uninstall all associated drivers and borrow a microSD.
first off, i'm on JM7 with my phone rooted
... problem 1: when i connect in usb mode, my pc makes the sound that a device is connected, but when i go to My Computer, i cannot find my SGS
... problem 2: when i connect in media player/kies mode, my phone is detected but takes a long time to load the contents and usually ends up freezing
can anyone help?
it may be a corrupted file on your sd card
Hello.
When I connect my S4 to my pc with the USB cable. The folder is automatically opened with all my files, docuements, photo...
As a usb key...
I would like to know if it is possible to block that please ?
On my old phone, I had an option to set by default only charge the phone when connected to the pc. And if i wanted to open the files of my sd card, I had to unlock the screen of my phone and choose "use as a device", and then my files was showed on my pc.
Now with the S4 anybody can take my phone and connect it on a computer and have access to all my files. I want to change that.
Help please.
Thank you.

Hello!
I'd really like to use SideSync 3 from Samsung with my Note 4, because I work on my computer alot and it would be very handy to operate my phone via comp.
I had it set up on my ex personal PC via USB, but I can't get it to work on my ASUS laptop.
Problem: I install SideSync 3 from http://www.samsung.com/us/sidesync/ and after I start the program nothing happens. It's like it freezes on opening and doesn't start. I was looking in the running processes but can't find any clue that is actualy running nor anything. I tried running as admin, tried system compatibility with win 8, 7, xp, dpi changes, admin rights... nothing works.
Any idea?
I'd be really happy if someone helped me out! =)
Sorry this won't help much. But it's working fine on WiFi. 8.1 Windows. Check you have latest version from Samsung on your note

Same problem here.
Any ideas?
hi ,
i noticed that you are trying to get SideSync 3 it to work on Win 8.1 (PC /USB .)
However ,i have Acer laptop Win 8 ( have not updated laptop to Win 8.1 ) SideSync 3 works fine. (No freezes or nothing, smooth, no problems at all )
Note 4 / USB connected .
Maybe you can " read " something into why it works on Win 8, since you " tried system compatibility with win 8" ?
Good luck
I have same problem. I tried on 3 different computers (Win 10, Win 8.1 and Win 7). To my suprise I can't run this app on any computer. It just will not start - at least it seams so. I also tried different compability modes and run it as administrator, but no success (it's same experience as miHah).
This is not a problem of phone (I use S6 Edge) - the phone is recognized when connected by USB (and I can browse/edit content on phone from pc). It just wont work with SideSync. BTW: I tried with SideSync version 3 and 4. Same results - doesnt run.
I have similar problem. I am unable to install samsung sidesync because it freezes my Windows 10 pc while installing samsung usb drivers for mobile devices. I am also unable to uninstall samsung usb drivers. Everytime I forced to reset my pc. Any ideas?
I have same issues and very confused
Admin rights requested on startup
At any time when I reboot, as Sidesync is started during boot sequence, when I login in, the Admin rights autorisation opened as I am not admin by default.
Any clue or advice for this ?
Thanks
jp
Same here
Do you guys also have keis 3 installed? I was able to start sidesync. I hadn't had any devices linked yet but I installed keis 3 and now it is doing the same (not even starting). I noticed when I downloaded sidesync from the Samsung website, it notified me I needed to update keis 3 and uninstalled it when I accepted the update. I wonder if it has something to do with both programs being installed or if you also need sidesync source on the computer as well. BTW I'm running acer win 7.
