Samsung Kies software

hks786 · 03-27-2012, 11:41 AM

Worst software ever. Tried to upgrade firmware on my galaxy s2 but had so many problems.

- Downloaded "latest version" from samsung website and it required another update which was impossible to do because it kept crashing.

- It used to recognise via my phone via USB but now it won't even see my phone it just keeps saying "connecting".

- If I try connect via wifi it says connected but "loading". wtf.

I've had so many other problems but basically its the worse software I've ever used and a quick google check shows so many other people have had problems but there are hardly any solutions out there.

Anyone else had problems with it?

Everything works fine with me... just used it yesterday... Only thing I don't like about the SGS II is how hot it gets...

Ok now it randomly connected to my phone AND lets me click the upgrade firmware selection, BUT it wont let me proceed because my battery is low! I have 39%! lol this software is FAIL. Its plugged in via USB so why is the battery an issue?!

My car doesn't recognize my SGS II at all via USB.

Bluetooff yes, USB nope.

Any suggestions why?

Check your USB settings in your phone. That's the only thing I can think of. I managed to get it to finally work! It was so random I didn't change any settings I just tried it for the 50th time and it worked lol.
