It would be very difficult to make something worse.

This was the only link I could find using google for the i9000.
http://in.samsungmobile.com/support/softwaremanuals/softwareKiesUpdate.do
I am not positive it is the Kies Update alone or include the most recent i9000 update as well.

That still gives a link to the old one.

OK so I am in the dark ages even though I have an iphone and a SGT i use parallels and load w2k for my windows needs.
Unfortunately I can't load Kies without XP or later. I know there used to be a way to trick Windows XP into thinking it was W2K, Is there a way to trick the Kies that I am on XP?
Thanks

Anyone try this yet? The reason I ask is it doesn't list the Galaxy as a supported device.

I just tried the link and it's Kies_2.0.0.11011_16_5.exe dated 6th Jan.
And at 95MB download, much less than older the KIES.

Its on support page http://www.samsung.com/pt stating Galaxy Tab
Ver. 2.0.0.11011_16_5 (release data :06/01/2011)
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...0/20101018093109250/Kies_2.0.0.11011_16_5.exe

downloading it now. have anyone tried updating their phone w/ this new kies?

So I have downloaded the new version, installed and and I still get the "Connect device in the Samsung Kies (PC Studio) mode."
I've searched all over and can't figure this one out as my Verizon Tab doesn't have that mode anywhere...

Mine just says Connecting... forever. Help?

Make sure the tab is not connected during install that worked for me on win 7 32
On a dell dimention e520

For me it's way faster download from here:
http://www.samsungmobile.de/samsung-handy/samsung-galaxy-tab-support
(http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/d...enter.samsung.com/content/&ModelName=GT-P1000)

I have tried running Kies from all the above links and none work. Everyone says device not supported getting a little ticked off. I wanted to keep one of my tabs stock and one gianny pig but it looks like I have flash roms on both to stay curent

Yup same here (least on vista 32bit at work) ...2x downloads and not working here (get an access error on startup).
I will try again at home on win7 64 to see if i have more success there.
Still stuck on stock firmware here as i have a Tesco's Unbranded tab ..It's not network locked, but not updatable yet either!

Wow, thanks for the tip, this is indeed _way_ quicker (about 30-fold...) !

I'm running Win7 64bit and it works fine.
New UI is much better imo. Have not played much but it has a emergency firmware recovery option and now has an itunes playlist importer.
Says I have latest firmware (JK5)

try it on my XP cause fille missing error. Now I am not able to reboot my XP.

Samsung kies that works with all

I have been testing several ROMS for AT&T Captivate and Rogers I896 and have download countless version of kies, finally I found one version that works, regardless of the rom, I am running froyo and TWLauncher.
That version is Kies 1.5.3.10075_17, Don't update as soon as you do it will no longer works, I did n't have to do anything to the phone settings, I have external sd card, the only thing to accept will be to download the decoder pack, videos, phone book, message viewer everything works, of course the firmware update will not work if you have a custom ROM. I did n't test with Stock rom. Download link will come soon, currently uploading. ENJOY!
**IMPORTANT** EVERYTIME you uninstall any version of kies run the kies uninstall tool, it removes all regystries left behind by kies. Download here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/4rmq8t
Download: http://turbobit.net/i8v2c4oixldz.html
MY UPLOAD FASTER Download here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ufip4f
As discussed on this tread there is another older version that works fine for others: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831938&page=3

Is there a Mac version?

Can you share the download link for the kies as well.

Kies Air
oh well after all that trouble, turns out that Kies Air from Samsung apps works flawlessly, so I am sticking to that from now on!
Kies Air does n't require software on the computer, you just install the application on your phone... from the computer browser type the address provided by the app and there you have it, of course it works on your wi-fi network, simple awesome.1

New Kies 2.0.1.11053_66_6

New Kies version out today. Maybe some other candy is right around the corner.
This did not come up when pressing Check for updates in my 2.0.0 version. So you have to manually download from samsung.com.

He's not wrong either

wow , its really big new who is using the kies anymore ??

I used kies to update to the latest gingerbread. And all the errors encountered before by flashing manually to gingerbread using odin are not there anymore. It is always good to be "official" sometimes....
But then, all the thrill is lost...

it seems that we will never see KIES on mac
it's not fair.....

There is a Kies version for mac...
http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/d...WA3IE&prd_mdl_name=GT-P1000&srchword=GT-P1000

Upgraded & Sync'g
Installed the update obtained from the German site and all went well.
I did have my P1010 USB attached during the update (actually, it uninstalled the prior version first) then sync'd my calendar & notes from Outlook 2003. The 1st sync done in this version is STILL running, is in its 2nd pass, and taking a lot longer than the prior version, perhaps going through some set-up or ??. Will add to this post when check out the sync
Done, took about 30 minutes so hope this was related to the newer version but .... Worked as expected

Kies sucks

New Kies Update out

Probably more of the same .
This needs a complete rewrite to match other Smartphone products its a big let down for Samsung users .

I was thinking that myself psp888 but I'm not too confident on that.

For some reason my says that already has the latest version which is 2.0.0.11044_11. Well it is not for some reason, it is for Kies reason..

Done the update and plugged in my phone (KE7) on the off chance of a further firmware upgrade but still states it's the latest one.
But it did connect to the phone right away which normally never happens.

Updated Kies but no new firmware.

In the SGS days (not that long ago) a new version of Kies was often just a few days before some nice new firmware releases.
Keeping the hope up, but we'll see..........

2.3.4 does not require a kies update for it to be downloaded or installed. Kies uses a specific protocol to communicate with your phone. Update is usually to add features or speed up things, improvements etc.

I thought that for those like me still not ready to root their devices can only update to 2.3.4 can only do so through Kies or go to a Samsung service center, or is there any other means?

My Kies bugs out every time I try to update, says the internet is not connected.
It also downloads more files than it is expected whilst retrying internet connection (eg. 54000/40000 KB).
Can anyone post a link to directly download the install file instead of using the update feature?

Kies Mac - GT-I9100 does not support firmware upgrade

Is anyone else using Kies on the Mac? My Kies says the GT-I9100 doesn't support firmware upgrade?? Im on KE2 so would have thought there should be an update?? When 2.3.4 dropps will the update be OTA or via Kies?

Unfortunately the Kies mac version is in beta or something. It won't allow firmware upgrade. As a macbook user I had to install bootcamp

Sigh... I had a feeling it might have been something like that. Very disappointing. Why have a linux based OS rely on Windows for updates ?? Samsung should be doing OTAs like HTC. I guess I'll have to dual boot now too.

you guys are lucky, at least you can do SOMETHING with Kies on mac, mine says Connecting, and nothing happens. not even shows the content on the phone

make sure you disable USB debugging and you're on the Kies screen on your GS2, then it will connect

What is USB debugging? Where is this located? Thanks!

I cant get kies on mac to update my firmware either. which sucks cos I dont have a windows machine lying around I can use.

Really bites the big wazoo...MBP i7 2.7 GHz and a fancy 2.3.3 S2 but I can't get a firmware upgrade, Odin or Kies
I suppose this will be resolved in the near future?...Any other way than bootcamp/parallels?

I have a legit copy of windows 7 running in VirtualBox, but I haven't gotten around to making the USB ports work (it's a PITA to do), and even if I could make it work, I don't think I'd trust those ports to hang on all the way through the flash process using Kies, as the Kies software is bad enough already. I seem to remember reading about another bit of software you can use on the mac to reflash an SGS, but I think i'll just wait for the mac version of Kies to come out. If it doesn't, oh well, I'm starting to like the Droid RAZR a lot, and there are a lot of other nice phones out there too that have better support than Samsung is giving us these days.
BTW, I must say I like OS X a LOT. This is my first mac in 20 years (I was POed at Jobs and vowed I wouldn't get another until he croaked). I'm starting to think I might get an Iphone 5 if it's nice and thin when it comes out. Apple certainly has the "it just works" thing down. Don't get me wrong, I love hacking away at things, but my real life has become so busy that sometimes I just need things to "just work."
