1. is your phone rooted? if yes, i believe kies cannot detect rooted phone
2. definitely not the problem of XP, i have no problem with my XP, one possibility could be your XP something corrupted, suggest you try on other pc.
Kies can detects rooted phones so that is not an issue.
You could put your phone in Download mode, and connect it to your pc and then run odin. If Odin detects it then it is not your drivers. If Odin cannot find a phone then obviously there is an issue with the drivers.(btw you dont have to do anything in odin for it to find it)

But as said the problem is that i dont have drivers at all on my computer for my phone, still i have latest update of kies..
Then do waht MistahBungle says. If your drivers arent installed kies is doing something wrong. Uninstall kies, delete the entire remaining Kies folder from program files, Clean up your registry and reboot your pc.
Once you have done that, Redownload Kies from the samsung website, make sure its the windows 32 bit(x86) version(as im guessing you are running that as XP) and install it.
Once it is installed. Reboot your computer. Turn your phone on and make sure USB debugging is completely turned off and then plug the phone in to your pc.
MistahBungle said:
Given you say you've tried *everything*, if it were me, I'd try a different PC. If it still doesn't work, user error; probably something really simply we're missing/you're not doing. Impossible to say what it is as we're not there with you looking over your shoulder.
Actually, I saw a thread on here last week, someone had tried everything like you & they fixed it by uninstalling Kies, removing Kies registry entries, rebooting, downloading/installing a fresh copy of Kies (for the drivers), running Windoze Update, rebooting. Fixed. Maybe try this before another PC.
You also must check Windoze Task Manager & kill Kies/any associated processes. You only want the drivers, not Kies/it's processes running when you use Odin.

I had same thing. In my case few times unplug the cable and plug back in helped. Weird but true. You can check if you can make connection via wi-fi ( kies wi-fi in phone settings) i was able to do it from very beginning before i got kies via cable sorted out.
Make sure your phone is unlocked when you plug it in. I spent a bit of time trying to get it talking initially including rebooting my phone, the PC, the phone & the PC. Turned out unnlocking the phone did the trick.
in settings/applications/development, make sure the USB debugging box is unticked.
I've tried those things too.
My notebook notice my sgs2 thats no problem, the problem is my notebook doesn't install the
Samsung_android and cdc serial driver. Those 2 fail.
Wierd thing is that it can connect as mass storage.
make sure you have no apps running! and USB debugging isn't ticked.
go onto stock TW launcher [will not work with launcher pro Etc AFAIK].
open task manager, clear all running apps and clear Ram. then open Kies and when loaded connect USB.
that's how i get it to work for me anyway
Rumble
That's what i tried to. But thats not the problem. Problem is that my laptop doesn't installs the cdc serial driver.

I've also tried that, it didn't work..
I've discovered what the problem is...
My browcli.dll file is corrupted and thats why it can't install the drivers correctly.
I had this exact problem, so I followed some advice I found on the web somewhere
1) uninstall kies
2) re-install kies but choose english US, as they seem to have missed out the CDC drivers for other languages!

STEPS TO USING KIES with a Samsung Galaxy S2 (SII, eye eye, anything you want to call it on Windows 7 vista or XP
1.Ensure your USB Debugging feature is not checked (when some stores copy your contacts from one fone to another, they check this box. USBD will F up your KIES.)
2. Stop your antivirus from your stock app manager.
3. Kies running on cuomputer, and phone at a home screen, plug it in.
voila.
If you have been using multiple phones over usb, or trying to root phones etc, i suggest you recover you delete any trace of usb or phone drivers on your machine, and repair your windows install. then try again.
This is how I fixed it for my scenario:
My Scenario:
few days back my SGS2 stopped recognizing apps installed on SD Card and I keep on getting "Force Close" error for installed (3rd party) apps on phone. I installed Kies on PC to backup my data before rooting my device, but Kies 2.0 was unable to read my phone. That's why i came here..
My Fix:
I uninstalled all downloaded (3rd party) apps and that fixed the issue. In all I removed more than 20 apps, that were installed on phone.
RCA:
I believe some 3rd party app or apps were messing up with my phone, my sdcard, my Kies. Anyways I am planning to root the device so my sole intention is to take back up of my data (pics, vids to be specific)
Suggestion:
1. Try connecting to Kies, after removing SD Card. It will narrow down if prob is with SDCard or SDCard data
2. Try uninstalling apps 1 by 1, to see which one is the culprit.
I had the same problem of Kies unable to connect to my phone. I could charge the phone, see it in the devices, connect through mass storage mode. Kies would even detect the phone when plugged in, tried to connect and would hang. I tried the usual steps (updated Kies, verified USB debugging is off, terminated all apps on the phone), but nothing worked.
I just rooted my phone and was concerned that something might have gone wrong in the process, resulting in the connection error, though every thing seemed to be normal. Out of desperation, I tried the diagnose connection problems button in Kies and Kies reinstalled the driver, tried connecting and rebooted the system. I tried again and this time it took much longer to install, but worked.
I suggest rebooting the system, before reinstalling Kies, as it worked after the reboot.
I have tried all 4 ports on my laptop and the SAMSUNG MTP DRIVER for Kies still fails to install, I have deleted it and reinstalled, manually pointed it to the USB Driver directory and yet it still fails, anyone any ideas?
Did you try rebooting the phone? Kies also didn't recognized mine and a reboot fixed this.
Tried a reboot still no good DRIVER NOT SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED
Millions of posts on this subject a read of them may find a solution .
Laptops do seem more of a problem in this regard .

Kies has an option to install the correct drivers for it on the computer, have you tried that option? I believe its under tools.

Yes, same problem
Right well problem half solved, had to phone Samsung, I had to tick USB Debugging, so ticked that all drivers installed correctly with no errors, I then had to untick and reconnect, so did that, it goes through installing drivers again and once again fails and phone still not detected. Samsung might copy a few things from apple, but the slogan "It just works" doesn't appear to be one of them.
Wasted 3 hours on this, time to admit defeat, is Kies really needed anyway? I can get music etc on the phone fine without it.
You only need Kies for official updates as opposed to stock Samsung updates via XDA .Well before Kies updates also .

I would just like to say I got this going, I updated from Vista to Windows 7, plugged in the phone and instantly detected. Don't know what the issue was.

It's obvious isn't it? The issue was Vista.
I had the same problem with Kies under Win7 x64.
Latest Kies, latest USB drives.
What got it to work, was switching back to TwLauncher instead of MXHome I was using at the time.
No idea why the laucher affected the USB interface.

I might give this a shot. I somehow managed to miracle a connection to Kies today, just don't ask me to do it again. Typically it's a no go. Also on Win7 64 bit, laptop.
This was an issue pre and post root. I may just back up my phone the old fashioned way if it continues to be a PITA.
I had this and noticed when i plugged it in, the windows connection sound would play but would play the disconnected sound immediatley when the mtp mode was launched in the phone. A second later the connected sound would play again but kies didn't find the phone.
I got round this by getting kies to start when phone is connected. This remains the only way it will recognise my phone

Hi,
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy GT I9100.
When I connect it to my computer I get a popup that an unrecognized usb was connected.
I tried downloading Kies but that didn't help either.
I think that my driver of Samsung got deleted somehow..and I have no idea how to install it on my computer.
Thanks in advance...
See the guide mentioned in my sig (vv)...from there, download samsung usb drivers (its there under pre-requisites) and install them...
{Don't do anything else from that guide, its not for your phone}
Also check whether android debugging is checked or not...
Installing kies should have installed the drivers, but this ^ you can try and see if it works...
Typed using a small touchscreen
I installed it and i still get the popup when i connect my device to my computer that an unrecognized usb was connected
You tried the built in windows troubleshooter? [I know its no good, coz if kies and usb drivers don't do the trick, I frankly don't think this will either...]
I could tell you to wipe data, but even that would be like shooting an arrow in the dark...
Typed using a small touchscreen
Yea I tried that already =\
Maby it's something with the hardware?
I doubt, but wouldn't rule out the possibility...
Try connecting to a different pc (which has latest kies installed)...
If that doesn't work, take it to service center...(I assume you haven't yet rooted/flashed anything)
Typed using a small touchscreen
I tried connecting it to another computer(without kies though so i'll install kies there)
that's the thing, i tried rooting it and i couldn't due to the fact that my computer didn't recognize my device.
thanks for the help btw...
I am trying to root my SGS3 international via Odin. The problem is that when I connect it to the computer in download mode, nothing happens. The device is not detected and the drivers are not being intalled. Worst of all ID : Com does not turn blue/yellow and the device is not added to Kies.
I have installed Kies, separate driver packs, I have tried different cables, different usb ports (on and off the mainboard of the PC), I have googled the problem for hours and still cannot figure it out.
Any advice?

You might have the same issue as I had.. I flashed a new firmware via Mobile Odin Pro.
Drivers shoudnt be installed when phone is in download mode but when its connected to the computer.. Before or after KIES is installed.
Did it work? Does anything happen at all?

Thank you for your reply.
I thought of that myself. But in order for me to use Mobile Odin Pro, I nedd to get root and in order to get root, I need to use Odin to flash the root files.
Nothing happens at all when the phone is connected to the computer in download mode. If the phone is booted in android, the drivers begin to install and Odin sees the phone (needless to say, I cannot flash while in Android mode). When I reboot in download mode, nothing happens.
have you made sure kies isn't running in the background? You need to kill all kies processes before using Odin or it may interrupt your flash. Aside from that you could uninstall kies and drivers and just try inhaling the drivers on their own? Which Windows version are you using? Xp can be problematic
Any idea whatsoever would be welcome

have seen a few reports of defective cables, but more likely a server problem or port problem, try a Google or search the threads as there have been quite a few posts regarding this matter, unfortunately I haven't got any links to hand

August 2012 post you searched and replied to very very strange .
So, I cannot connect my phone to any pc.
Problem started after re-installing Windows 7 I believe.
The phone charges fine over usb.
Here's what I have tried so far:
I have changed mtp to ptp.
I have tried using different usb cables and ports
I have re-installed windows 3 times
I have installed Samsung drivers and kies, and tried fixing the error thru kies.
I have tried different kernels (Siyah and stock cm10 kernel)
I have tried on a different pc.
I have tried the stock sgs3 rom, it has Siyah kernel.
I have tried turning USB debugging on and off.
Galaxy S3 toolkit doesn't recognize my phone.
Any help is appreciated.

You say you already tried stock rom with Siyah Kernal. How did you get back to stock did you flash or use Odin?
I would make a backup, Use Superwipe script and use Odin to load Stock Ics 4.0.4 and then try. If that fails you can always restore back to your backup and someone else maybe able to provide a solution.
TBH it doesn't sound like its your PC if you have tried it on other PCs.

Odin is relatively safe but I am not going to guarentee anything, There is a lot of tutorials on using odin on here and youtube. It is completely up to you what you do. My suggestion was purely based on what I would do in your situtation.

Could doing a megawipe or a superwipe make windows recognize my phone again then?
Uninstall Kies completely from your PC when its uninstalled reboot your PC then make sure the Kies folder located here is deleted
Program Files / Samsung / Kies
Next download and install Kies from the Samsung web site, reboot your PC once rebooted plug your phone in to the USB (preferably with the original USB cable), let the drivers install themselves.
Once installed you should have it working again.

Done, it says USB device not recognized.
I'm currently installing Kies on a laptop, if it works it means that my motherboard is broken or something, if it doesn't it means my phones usb port is broken.
E: Okay, this windows is saying that the device is in error mode or something like that...
Question: How do I get my phone to stock without usb so I can take it to the warranty?

Pants. I'm in the same situation, but my phone isn't rooted. So I can't use mobile odin. Anyone else have any thoughts on this? Is there any way of using stock recovery to either flash an official image or perhaps root?
