Update:

It managed to get installed on another computer with XP 32bits... But now it's kies installation problem.

It says "Cannot access the file server." Please check network settings. :S

Man there is nothing wrong with it! its the same internet as the other computer and this one has no antivirus, no firewall aktivated and works to surf, install flash player, windows update, microsoft .net framework 4 and so on.

Update 2:

I managed to install Kies! but it's an old version of Kies! It came out in May month, so the Galaxy S was not on the market.

This one --> (downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201003/20100305160356484/Kies_1.5.0.10024_74.exe)

When I connect my SGS with Kies, Kies says that this device is not supported!

So I tried to Update Kies from Inside of Kies...... lets say kies is acting very weard.

Look at the picture with dump of Kies when I try to update

can any please give me MTP USB DRIVE link from where i can download that drive
[Galaxy S I9000 General] momyc:
Guys , I have also problem with MTP Usb driver.

The phone doesn't connect with Kies. I have W7 64 bits.

I found a temporary solution that is working for me every time .

Before I start the Kies and connect the phone I run the Install of MTP USB driver (64 bits) . Like that the connection is running well and at first attempt.

If I disconnect the phone and try to re-connect it doesn't work again. I re-install the USB driver , it's working again. Go figure...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seby79:
tigersaid - try to download and install the Kies from here - it is the 1.5.3....82 version, I have head that also is the 1.5.3....83 version but, at least me, I never found it.

http://www.samsungmobile.co.uk/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s-support

then, if you cannot connect the phone to the Kies, use the steps that <<alis333>> described in this thread...more, between the uninstall and install of the new Kies, run the ''Ccleaner'' to remove any unwanted files that the old Kies might have left in the computer.

Uninstall the Kies that you have right now installed from Control Panel / add or remove programs and NOT by trying to install the new version over it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] robwiel:
omg, thx alis333 for kies fix
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tigersaid:
Soloution for me was using win7 64bits and install Samsung usb driver...

Thanx for all the help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] notjustahatrack:
OK, so I'm trying to use alis333's kiesfix but I'm getting a .NET Framework error. I'm running .NET 4 on XP SP2. When I try to run the program, I get the following dialogue:

.NET Framework Initialization Error

Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application.

Does anyone have any idea why it's not working? Kies is rubbish, clearly, but if I want to get Froyo running then I'm going to need to use it. Grumble.

EDIT: Managed to get it running under 3.5, then updated to 4 and it's working, but the MTP device is still not working in the Device Manager. I've deleted the files with long names, disconnected and reconnected, uninstalled the MTP device in the Device Manager, disconnected and reconnected again, but it's STILL giving me the same INF error. HELP! I'm going mental here.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Droum:
It seems there are lot's of different issues with MTP.

In my case, the usb stopped working completelly, I didn't even had the usb connection info in the notification bar while connecting the phone to the PC (in mass storage mode).

Logs were assuming that I had a charger connected and not the PC.

The way I recovered from it was doing an hard reset (I know it's stupid but I wanted to be 100% sure if there was a problem with the phone usb port before replacing it).

After the hard reset usb port was working 100%, then I started installing all my apps again, in the end I had no usb options anymore hehe (I believe LauncherPro can be one of the culprits, but it's not LauncherPro alone that causes it... there is something more into the mix).

I knew usb was working fine in case of an update, so I was not concerned in not having usb mass storage functioning properly (or even kies for the updates). Today I saw this in the General Android Development...

jup007 posted:

Anyway, after searching all over the internet, I found the way to get USB connection working again without hard reset. Try this:

1. Dial *#7284#. This should open app called PhoneUtil (there are other ways to get to it)

2. In USB section, swith it to Modem, then switch it back to PDA

3. Exit, and USB should work.

And in my case it works (rooted i5800).

This is not for people with driver issues.

- This is only for when you connect your phone to the pc, you ear the usual beep but there is no further info in the notification bar and nothing happens.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TedBeer:
That's correct. It always connects.

This is not correct. I think your driver is outdated. Could you do what I said:

- uninstall the driver (click right mouse button on "Android MTP" and select "uninstall" in the menu)

- disconnect the device

- remove from windows folder/subfolders everything related: wpdmtp*.* (especially wpdmtp.inf and WPDMTPHW.INF in windows/inf folder)

- reinstall windows media player ver 11 or 12 (depends on windows version, ver11 for Windows XP)

- connect your device and install driver automatically

The device should be reported as I9000 or similar not "MTP device" and not "Android MTP"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MagicOnline:
if your phone is restarting/screen flickering with MTP each time after connecting to usb then you should look out for file- and foldernames under /sdcard and /sdcard/sd with this extension "." (w/o ").

kies doesnt like names longer than 15 char, like .meta-1324132457-le8302je or folder.thisstandsforeverything

at least it worked for me :rolleyes:

Fixed

Here is another luck to try

i have the same problem like everyone else, problem with Kies with MTP usb not detected

I am using XP 32bit sp3 at home

today i tried the windows 7 32 bit on friend's laptop

what i did is,

1) changed from Launcher Pro back to Samsung original TW Launcher

2) End all tasks and no background programs

3) plug in phone and try kies, no detect at first

4) then i install the MTP usb driver x86 from softpedia

5) retry, and, it works!!!

6) when i back home i just plugged my sgs in pc again, and it's working too

the important part here is,

u must be using TW Launcher, not any other launcher.

wish you good luck too

Installing the Windows Media Player 11 fixed Android MTP driver issue

YEHEY!!! This worked for me!! I could kiss you for this even if you are a man!!! :D

I had some issues with the installation of the WMP11 however i found a solution to manually install the WMP11. I was able to fix 2 issues with in 1 hr.

What I did:

1. Un-installed the old copy of Kies and Samsung Driver using Revo Un-installer.

2. Restarted Computer.

3. Installed latest Kies ONLY

4. when it did not install the driver, I followed the above instructions to update to WMP11.

5. I had difficulty updating WMP because of the .NET Framework, so i followed the instructions in this link and restarted the computer

6. Ran the Kies and hook up the Galaxy and set it to Samsung Kies mode and computer just installed the driver.

Kies, version 1.5.3.10093_82 released Oct.15.2010.

See below pictures on what your Device Manager and Kies would look like after the successful set up.

Hopefully it will help others just like me. If it doesn't, do not lose hope. I hope the next release of Kies already has the compatible driver installed.

Just have to say thank you SOOOOOO much for this fix! I'd been manually trying to find 16 character extensions, but this tool is just invaluable! True legend!! My Kies is now working without having to reset my phone! Just in time for Froyo!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] guibao:
I am on Win7 x64 with all the latest whatnot.

I did clear the cache with the app from the market, cleaned long file name with kies fix (both files on DCIM dir) but it really worked when I did what I found posted somewhere else in this forum: your phone cant be on 'ask on connection' on usb options for kies to work. When I moved it to Kies and plugged in the cable, it connected promptly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pedrolopes665:
my problem was solved by formating the internal sd card. everything is fine now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jacques-SA:
I tried everything like most of you, format SD, unmount, check for long file name etc.

Also updated Kies to 1.5.3.xxxxx.

Still no joy.

Then selected Recover driver option on Kies.

Restarted app and reconnected phone, selected Kies option and voila, phone connected!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cagefronsac:
sorry for my bad english, i do encounter this problem, cost almost 2 days finding how to solve this problem on my Galaxy S. but at last i alredady settle. I go to samsung mobile website, then i download uninstall kies which already launch on 19 Nov 2010. wow.. after i run that program, i uninstall USB samsung driver for x64 (note : i use windows 7 64 bit ultimate) then i restart, and i install samsung kies 1.53, .. voila.. I can use samsung kies .. :D

Good afternoon, for me this tip was very useful. My USB link is repaired !!!

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ziostilon:
i thought the new Kies fixed this issue. Samsung c'mon, so many problems

one i got was 1.5.3.10103_102
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tommyboy76:
Working!

After following all the advice on here I found that three things I did seemed to fix my issue (could have been one or the other or all 3).

I tried unmounting the external SD, running the long file extension cleaner, etc.

Here's what finally worked for me:

1. I moved all of my MP3s off of my internal SD card (2+ gigs worth)

2. I switched the cable from my blackberry cable to the original Samsung cable (may not have made a difference, not sure)

3. In Kies I did the driver recovery again

It started working after that. Finally running 2.2!

Samsung mobile MTP device

I had this problem for about a week since I reinstalled Windows XP.

I tried all suggestions and nothing worked and I didn't know what changed from my OS re-installation.

But finally I tried to google differently than found new hardware MTP device and discovered below thread:

support-us.samsung.com/cyber/popup/iframe/pop_troubleshooting_fr.jsp?idx=120176&modelname=YP-P2JCB&modelcode=&session_id=L0ZnTkys3nvJw4s8KnLhGLtjQMn2yyg9WnTp61d4lmsH0Whng7tc!484378102!1761676348!7501!-1!NONE!1261705710851

Which would you prefer and why? I like adw's robust options but it seems that launcherpro is more stable. Could be a placebo though. What do u guys think?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
i use AWD

(10 char)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sistum Id:
I have both installed on my Froyo Nexus and I'm constantly going back and forth between the two. It's like a personal war between the 2 devs/teams. Its pushing both of them hard and its awesome.

I finally made my choice today and went with ADW because of the number of rows and columns I can make as well as edit the widgets to my liking. I use 5 x 6 and its pretty nice I think.

Thing I miss the most from LP is the 3d launcher and the new dock.

Both of them seem stable for everyday use for me.

But once ADW added the custom widget sizing thing, I knew ADW was the winner for me. I'll still keep LauncherPro and follow its progress but right now, its ADW.

I have 7 screens but here are the middle 3.

What´s wrong here??:)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sistum Id:
The top 86 is my current weather.

The 28% and 30 is one of them didn't update as fast as the other.

The 29.0c/84.2f is the battery temp.

Hope that clears it up.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I use LP. It already has scrollable lower row (with shortcuts), rows/columns change in Launcher mode, and 3D app drawer.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anstosa:
I have both installed and have gone between them countless times but this last week I've been leaning towards LP. It's not a placebo, Launcher pro isn't quite as customizable as ADW [yet] but updates are coming twice a week and it's gets better every time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
LP - I think a great app does not need thousands of options. While they are nice, lp just seems to work how I want and requires very little from me. I tried adw many times, but always go back.

I wish it would allow you to change the launcher background color and transparency though, like adw.

I was not a fan of changing my desktop from 4x4... Everything seemed weird at 5x5 for me.

I to really like ADW and especially the open source side of things :)

However one feature i really like on LP is the screen selector notifier bar thingy at the bottom :) that's real nice :)

but still ADW is my launcher of choice! and i only just found out about the swiping up on the bottom thing yesterday! even though that's probably been in a few versions :D

LauncherPro.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveid:
Hate to move away from the topic.. but I have to ask someone...

What is this instant diversion people have to closed-source software?

Just because something is open-sourced doesn't mean it is instantly better than the competition, or does it? ;)

I myself have both installed, I switch back and forth - generally with new updates to check them out. Right now, ADW is my default, the custom widget sizes makes using a 6x6 layout possible. Which rocks!

But, LauncherPro has some great features, and is equally as good a product.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rori~:
Cause people wanna have everything for free :eek:...they forget about the effort it needs to make a great launcher.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Android is what it is because it's open source, sharing is good, it allowed a contribution based ecosystem.

Does adw have the scrollable quick launch bottom bar? Haven't checked it recently.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveid:
See, this is a major misconception, Open Source DOES NOT EQUAL Free. Please research.

Open source software is often provided free of charge, but that does not mean the two are synonymous. Open source software can be sold, free software can have closed sources.

They are simply development models (open vs. closed), not marketing models. But there has always been some confusion (especially in the Android world) regarding the difference. People see "Open Source" and immediately think "FREE". And, free is better (right?), or is it?

Open source developing does breed a community driven product, which is excellent. However, just because a developer does not want to give away their secrets (Launcher Pro), doesn't immediately make it inferior to one who does (ADW).

But, all of this means nothing to the end user. If you are not developing, why do you care if the source code is released for software you use? If you are not interested in modifying and contributing to that software (or unable to), what difference does it make if you have access to the source code?

See my point?

I am an advocate of open source developing (don't get me wrong), like I said it breeds a community environment. What this means to me is this: Open source software development creates a product that reflects what the community is looking for, it promotes healthy progress of that product, it brings more people into the problem solving (not just problem identifying) aspect, it often progresses much faster than software developed by a single programmer.

But, if there are two products, and one is open sourced and the other closed, that has no bearing upon my decision as to which is better or which to use. I will still analyze both products and make my decision based upon my experiences - as should you all.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
Launcher pro FTW. Although ADW has a little more tweak than LP. The latest LP with 15 app option on sliding dock bar makes it perfect and dock bar design is tweakable. Im not a big fan of ADW pull out dock bar, icons look small and out of place. But this is just a personal preference, so to each their own.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
Hope this isn't a post that will really piss everyone off, but I'm not sure really where to go from here. Tried about 20 times. I run the loop command, it shows up for about 1 line and goes away.

I am still getting an Android 1.0 error of some sort. I've been reading about how to get this driver installed correctly. I uninstalled everything and started over (USBDeview, HTC Sync...The one for the Slide, SDK, Updated it with SDK Updater)

Windows 7 x64

Just went to Computer> right click> Manage> ABD Testing Interface....

I have a little yellow exclamation point next to this... Tried updating the driver. Not really sure though what driver I need or where it's at or the place I need to download it.

You ever feel like you've surfed cyberspace to the end of the megacluster? Yeah that's pretty much where I'm at frustrated, broken hearted, and wanting a one-click root procedure like the g1/mytouch. :(

Is it rude to wave money in developers faces for help? Does this make you feel like a stripper?

Ahhhh I'm just stuck.... Help would be so awesome.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fetusbeats:
I'm not a dev but I do feel like a stripper, but for unrelated reasons... Anyways. On my win7 64 I had to use pdanet and actually have the program running. For whatever reason when I tried closing pdanet it wouldn't work, so give that a shot. It also stopped the android 1.0 driver issues. I also gather from wes garners' twitter page he's working on a method of rooting that runs the adb scripts and **** for you. Maybe just wait it out.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] DaemionIX:
That was on a win x64 system. Honestly I think it was the sd card, as weird as that sounds, because I tried all the usb stuff for about 4 hours to no avail, swapped out the sd card, rooted the first try.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
I'll give all this a try. Do you use PDANet with or without HTC Sync? I was pretty tired last night when I tried and eventually gave up.

Hence all the stripper references.

I have an extra SD Card from my original Mytouch. I'll give it a try and let you know how it goes.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] DaemionIX:

You should really have looked at the other thread on this already. Any driver will work, as long as you can get "adb devices" to show your phone when the phone is booted normally. Whats worked for many others, especially myself after 4 days of trying, was using a different, freshly formatted SD card. Good luck.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
To no avail!

Just tried again. Tried without rebooting the computer the first time and "offline" would hang for a little longer than before. Still wouldn't stay. Should I have tried recovery a few more times? (I did try about three times.)

Uninstalled and reinstalled everything. Then tried "loop". "offline" doesn't even show up. Tried an old SD card too after I reformatted it. Does it matter the size of the SD card?

fermunky- I've been following your posts pretty regularly and I think I'm having the same problem. Yes I do have ADB devices showing up if the phone is on normally and running through the SDK. Had a problem for a while where it wouldn't recognize the device, but it does now.
