regards

Since I already had the EVO I got the TAB from Sprint.
Trying to use Kies and it is not working.
Will I even be able to root?
Let alone perform recovery and rom loads?
Thank you for your help....
Dude...not to sound like an elitist asshole, but you really should do some searching!
Try Kies 2.0
please dont say search on this issue i have searched for this issue up and down and there isnt a fix yet. As of yet the cdma tabs cant use kies you can still root you just dont have all the fall back protection the gsm tabs have
It seems like you already know the answers to these questions...
OK..Apparently I have version 2.1.0.11112_41 What kind of freakin' version number is that? It just prompted me to update to this and I did.
I used to be able to connect my Tab 10.1 to Kies. It sometimes worked with the cable and it always worked with Kies via Wi-Fi. My Galaxy S phone used to connect with the cable every time.
Now, when I connect the phone I get this
"Unable to connect to GT0I9000M. Failed to retrieve device information."
When I connect the Tab, it gets recognized at a GT-P7510, but then I get the message "No sim card inserted. Unable to continue communication." Well, duh, it's a wifi version..there is no SIM card.
Now, I don't know if it's Kies, or if it's the fact that the Tab was just updated to UEKMM and the phone was just updated to 2.3.3 gingerbread.gkg3.
Regardless, it seem that Kies is a piece of steaming dog turd. I think my Tab and Galaxy S are great and would never consider an iPud or iPone, but my son has an iPhone (I call him an iHag or an iFag as the mood strikes) and he's never had problems updating his phone via iTunes.
I wish Samsung could pull their **** together and pump out a decent piece of software.
just use the setting's update instead of Kies ?

Same problem here. No Sim Card Inserted error in kies after the 3.2 over the air update. You could reflash 3.1 or wait on Samsung to fix the problem.

Hi there,
I'm having this problem when I try and update my OS on my Note 3 SM-N900W using Samsung Kies version 3.2.15072_2 on my Windows 10 Machine. Each time is the same - Kies connects fine to the Note 3, and notices there is an update - do I want it - OF COURSE!!! So I select that, and then Kies informs me it needs to update the USB driver before it proceeds - please unplug the phone. Then a message this could take a while. After about 1 minute I get the BSOD and windows apologizes but it received an error - attached - and must restart. EVERY TIME!
Tried manually installing the Samsung USB driver but Kies doesn't care - wants to do it for me. Yes, I granted Kies permission to make changes to the computer.
This also is happening with my Samsung Galaxy TabS 8.4 - since the issue is the same I have only started one thread. I've spent hours searching online - driving me crazy!
Suggestions?
Thanks!
Samsung has dropped KIES (About half a year ago), and as such it doesn't support Windows 10. You need to use Smart Switch instead, it's the replacement for KIES. http://www.samsung.com/us/smart-switch/

Huh! Thanks for that - strange that Samsung "technical" support didn't mention it? The agent said they are working on a Windows 10 update to Kies! Will Smart Switch also be used for updates?
I did finally manage to update my phone using Sammobile firmware and Odin - still have to root but at least I am up to date! Thank you for the reply.

Smart Switch is the full replacement for KIES. It also includes the same update function.
The helpdesks are outsourced callcenters, most of them have no idea what they're talking about. I once had an argument with five of them at once regarding the missing alphabetic sorting in the International S6. It wasn't included in the firmware, they claimed it was. Even after the official press release, they weren't aware of it. :laugh: Poor sods.

Thanks for the comments - installing it on both devices/laptop now!
LOL re "technical service". Whenever I want to get more annoyed than I already am with a problem, I use "Chat". I have very rarely been actually assisted by someone from any technology company's technical support - but hey, it could happen...
So here's the thing I have a Galaxy S8 and am having issues with a few things
1. there is no bixby voice. - even having my system set to english dosnt help.
2. samsung pay dosnt work - it just says connecting fails.
3. region locking prevents 1 and 2. nothing wrong with my phone samsung just hates japan is all.
4. android pay sees the japan on my phone and prevents me from using my american payment methoids. cant add any credit cards. pay pal dosnt even link up right.
5. 1seg (HD Video over air) is really garbage. i have seen USB tuners on a laptop get better signal then my phone.
6. predicive text on my keyboard sucks. on all keyboards on gboard. on my iphone i was able to type and it would fix evorything. on my galaxy if i dont hook up a USB keyboard. i will say things like 8ts instead of its. and it wont fix it.
Good night people
Ok?
I just bought an S10 + on it at bestbuy and it arrives tomorrow. then I will read on this forum to see everything you said, but I would like to take advantage of it and post a question that I have for a long time but can not find anything about it on the net. Suddenly you know something about how to make it work. in the pc I have to install the KIES that works until the S4. From S5 forward only works with SMART SWITCH. I would like to know if there is some way to make s10 work in KIES or some similar program, because the smart switch only makes a backup, and kies no, I can access the folders inside the cel and see the thumbnails of the files, which help a lot and I really like this function when saving photos and videos on the pc. is there any program that is similar to kies for s10 or that has to cheat kies so that he can get the s10?
I'm waiting, thank you.
I downloaded kies3 which for some reason detects the phone but then tells me I have to be in some specific usb mode which dosent exist in the phone developer settings, then it fails to show the phone.

maybe this happens because it does not have an s10 driver for windows that works on kies

Samsung Kies is obsolete and deprecated.

No all that's installed Samsung sent me all the links to everything needed for kies3. But it still asks for USB mode MTC or something can't remember exactly now.
My pc recognizes my phone I can navigate and transfer files via Windows 10 file manager. Adb works fine, just kies3 has issue.
This is what I get, even with anti virus and firewalls disabled there's writing allowed.
So
as far as I know kies is no longer updated for many years and only works until S4 or S5, after that only the smart switch
That's why you have these problems.
what makes me annoyed is that it is not possible as there is no program similar to kies or that some programmer can not make kies work with other devices above s4. It should not be difficult for anyone who understands programming and a lot of people who know how to manipulate applications, who modify roms, etc.
