Just a friendly note to the people who are having issues with connecting Samsung GS2 to the latest version of Kies. I have a Galaxy S2 running on 2.3.3, rooted. Unfortunately I am unable to connect my phone to Samsung's inhouse PC interface program called Kies. After what seemd to be years of searching for a way to connect the damn phone, I was able to make it work, finally. Here are the methods that I used. 1. Stop using Windows 7 64bit. This OS is currently unsupported. 2. Update to the latest version of KIES and use the driver installation method. 3. Restart the computer many times. None of those worked, but after reading something on the net about SD cards, here's what I did: 1. Remove the battery. 2. Remove the SD card. 3. Startup GS2. 4. Startup Kies 5. Plug the device to the USB port. And it worked! What the fuck. Anyway, In case anybody stumbles upon this, I hope it also works for you. Now I'm having issues with trying to make the Kies backup work. Oh Samsung, what would we do without you?
