Connecting to kies. Please help - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi all! So im using windows 7 32bit. Installed kies 2.0 and plug in my gfs bell vibrant (In Canada ) and a popup comes up on the phone asking if i want it in
Samsung kies mode
Mass storage
Media player
Or pc internet.
I select samsung kies and nothing. I retry and select mass storage.well this time it works! Except it tells me to select samsung kies mode as it doesnt support mass storage mode.
Please, any idea. She wants 2.2 on her bell vibrant.
Thanks!

Are you using the stock touchwiz launcher? If you are using something like launcherpro switch to tw and connect again in Kies mode.

are you using the USB ports on the case?
for some reason this phone doesn't play nice with them try using a port directly attached to the motherboard.
Attaching the phone directly to the usb port on the motherboard is the only way i got mine and my wife's phone to connect on either of our computers

Yes she is using ADW! Man I didn't even think of that! Ill try it when I get off work and let you know. thanks for the suggestion!
Also I am using the MoBo ports

Alright so I switched back to the TW launcher, plugged her in and BAM! works like a charm. Backing everything up now! Thank you so much! I can't believe it was that simple haha thanks again!

Computer no longer recognizes my hero... ughh

Has anyone had problems syncing via HTC Sync? For some reason today, my computer no longer recognizes my hero and I am no longer able to transfer files back and forth using the USB cable. Ughhhhh anyone able to help? I tried uninstalling HTC Sync and reinstalling but that did not help.
happens to me on occasion but always works when i reboot the computer.
I had that problem once, it turned out to be an issue with the cable. Are you able to try the cable on another PC to try to trouble shoot it?

Usb problem pls help

Hey
I have an x10i and until yesterday i had no problems with it. I cannot connect my phone to the pc and it only charges after 7 seconds from connecting it to the usb. When i connect it to the pc it takes 7 seconds and then shows that it charges but i dont have anything in the notification bar about mounting the usb.
I tried connecting it to another computer but its the same and i cannot flash it using pc companion nor seus cuz it cant be identified even in flash mod.
Ps. The pc does not show any notification that it is connected. Pls help and if this thrad is already there please tell me because i searched and couldn't find it.
Cheers

Try running usbdeview and remove anything related to semc. Take your batter out for 10 seconds, put it back in, switch on the phone and reconnect.
Sory for being a noob but where is semc. Is it on the mobile? Or should i remove it from the pc?

On the computer, download and run the run program, it's pretty self explanatory.
I think your micro usb is broken. Mine does exactly the same thing. It is only connecting on the two prongs that charge and not the two for data transfer. There is no fix I am getting a replacement as thousands of others have done as this is a common problem. See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777721
But id was working before the pc restarted

USB device not recognized

I'm using the original USB cable from the box plugged into the back USB port on my PC.
I've tried simply plugging it in, "USB device not recognized".
i've installed the samsung drivers for the epic 4g, "USB device not recognized".
I've installed the samsugn galaxy S windows 7 64bit drivers, "USB device not recognized".
I've installed PDAnet, wouldn't finish the install because windows couldn't see the phone.
The phone worked fine on a windows XP laptop when I installed the samsung drivers from the epic 4g page on samsung's website.
Any advice?
Buy a better usb cable or try a different usb port on your computer. My phone only works with one of the four on my computer.

I've used the stock cable for everything, works fine for me. Make sure it's a USB port that's directly connected to your motherboard.

It is. The back of my PC has 6 ports all directly connected to the motherboard.
OK I got it "fixed".
One (and only 1) of my front ports will work with the samsung epic 4g drivers from the samsung support page. None of he 6 on the back will work.
Weird...but if it's working it's working.
Same way with mine it doesnt work well with windows 7

I don't remember the service menu code, but changing the usb mode from modem to pda solved all my connectivity issues.
Is it a Dell XPS 9100? My Dell XPS 9100 has never drivered up for me, it doesn't matter what usb port you use. My wifes Dell laptop drivers up immediatly.

Its not the stock cable but win 7-64 Drivers try winxp should be fine.

If anyones still having issues please try ##8778# in dialer, and on usb only check pda instead of modem and see if that helps.
That worked. Thanks for the excellent tip

Right without predictive text on,my wifes galaxy still won't connect onto any computer,not even for the sd,which is odd.
Tried three wires now,
Messed around with drivers etc
Uninstalled and reinstalled.
A glimmer of hope the other day when I installed an older version of kies very odd.
Any ideas?
Apologies for previous message predictive text was on...which is cack

try changing usb port or try on another laptop / pc is the phone charging when connected via usb cabel ?
What computer software are you running? I've tried three computers, the one with XP SP3 refuses to play at all, but both the Vista and Windows7 machines communicate OK with my I9000.
Hope that this helps.
I think, you mean that you have installed kies, and get no usb connection.
Look in phone at settings - application - development and uncheck usb debugging if it is checked.
Try to connect again to computer.
If it is still not working, which kies version, firmware version, kernel do you have.
