After half an hour trying I have just found a working solution how to connect your SGS in Kies. Here is the deal:
Start Kies, put phone's USB settings in Kies mode. Connect your phone to the PC. Wait until MTP App show "Connected". Go to your PC's Device manager, find Portable Devices and select Disable on GT-I9000. Do not wait for the disabling process to be completed, just disconnect the USB cable. Now connect the USB cable again, wait the MTP App on the phone to show you the message "Connected" and choose Enable on GT-I9000 in Device Manager. After a few seconds your phone should be ready in Kies
I tried this both on x86 and x64 Windows 7 and it works for me.
I hope this will help! And I hope there isn't another thread with this solution. If there is - I'm sorry
i cant wait to get home and try this... another 10h to go
but if this helps ur a geniues

Will put this in the FAQ if we have some confirmations for its effectiveness
when i first bought my phone it worked with kies, but after flashing it to a different firmware there was nothing i could do to get it to connect. i had deleted drivers, re-installed, etc etc but nothing worked. what ended up working was putting the phone in download mode, plugging in the usb to both phone and pc, then putting the phone into recovery mode, and as soon as the recovery menu popped up my device was recognized and the correct drivers were reinstalled and all was fine again

If you still have this problem, please try my method and tell me if it works
I had issues and I also tried this method. But it didn't help
Last thing I tried was to format the internal SD. That did the trick for me....
The biggest problem with getting the phone to connect to Kies is two fold:
1) MTP application will ONLY launch from the home screen (touchwiz screen). NOT from any app. drawer / launcher screen
2) If USB mode on the phone is set to Ask on Connection, MTP won't launch due to the USB app. being open (see 1) above)
If you set USB to Kies mode and then ensure you are on the home screen of the phone with nothing else running, Kies WILL connect
Also remember the 16+ size extension bug.
So a full wipe on ur I internal sd card is a good solution just make sure u back it up tour hdd
I also did a "Driver recovery" from Kies and it worked after that. Although MTP driver failed to install for me in this case.
Make sure to update to the latest version of Kies ( Now 1.5.1.0074.45 ) as this version seems far more reliable when connecting the phone
I recently discovered that the culprit of Kies continuously trying to connect to phone was caused by wrong MTP driver selected.
Under WinXP
After phone connected in Kies Mode..Go to Device Manager/Portable device..
If you see a device labeled as "MTP xxx or Portable device.." ,wrong MTP driver or older driver has been used..For my case, a Microsoft 2004 MTP driver was selected.
To fix it.
1) Do a manual driver update..for my case ,i let the driver wizard to search automatically..this round, another newer Microsoft driver was found..in fact 2 of them.. after installing the drivers(Microsoft 2006 MTP driver,2 are listed..). .Now Device Manager/Portable device listed "GT-i9000" ,Kies immediately found my phone.
Driver name that worked are "wpdusb.sys" and "wudfrd.sys" found under \windows\System32\drivers\..

You must not understand English. The entire reason I posted a comment was to share how I overcame this issue, so that would mean I no longer have this issue
Probable Fix for Kies
Friends,
I have also faced the same problem (while connecting my SGS via Kies MTP was crashing). It used to work earlier so I started to remove Applications and data in the reverse order of Installation. After I removed "Dolphin Browser HD" and all saved bookmarks it started working.
This may be a probable solution if you also have Installed Dolphin Browser.

India.
2 different issues.
MTP crashing on phone is independent from Kies on PC cant detect phone.
i couldnt use kies either but i wasnt worried as i hardly have free time now..
this was a simple fix and now it workes perfectly for me.
sorry about the late replay.
thanks
I'm glad that it works for you
try this
try #9 on

You might be interested in my little APK (SGS Toolbox). I first created it to have it read the product code from the nv_data file to allow you to check whether it has been modified after a firmware update. But now I added some extra options, of which one is the option to check whether there are new firmware updates available in KIES by issuing the same request KIES does when checking for new firmware. This way you don't have to connect your phone to your computer all the time to check for new updates in KIES. Note: It sends JM1 as the current firmware version to find the latest. I might send the actual phone's firmware version once I figured out how to find it. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778244
Thanks, I'll give it a try

Hi everyone!
I've got an Apollo (GT-i5801), and after a successful root using z4root, i can't use my phone with Kies. It worked great before root.
When i connect it to the pc, the phone is recognized as an SD card( fine!) but with Kies, the "Connecting" option stays there forever...
Any help?
Thx
Try it without sd card. you can't access your files with kies now but you can upgrade when it's time.

Should i unroot it, to update with Froyo, using Kies?
I think you should try
Froyo?
?

I've tried that way, didn't worked
i dont know if was martin tip, or an update on kies
what worked for me :
try to disconect the phone, reinstall drivers (do that after kies update, if you need to)
dont set the phone to ask on connection what to use (mass storage, kies, internet) but set it to connect directly on kies
start kies, and plug the phone
worked for me
Did you verified that USB Debugging was unchecked ? because when it's checked there is no connection possible using USB port neitherfor OS or KIES?
I am also facing the same problem with my I5801. Initially I rooted with z4root 1.1. version later I felt its because of the old version. Later I installed latest Z4root 1.3 version and re-rooted it but no use. My phone is not at all getting recognised (though I get a sound from my phone after connecting to pc but there is no option to choose KIES or Mass storage etc. It simply getting charged)
The KIES didn't recognise my phone even after connecting it to PC.
Later I tried
http://www.careace.net/2010/08/25/how-to-fix-samsung-kies-connection-problem/comment-page-5/
Though not of much use nothing happened.
Even I tried (Dial part in the below link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8667486&postcount=524
Fortunately this time my KIES recognises some unknown phone is connected but it mounts my phone in Memory card mode. Though I couldn't do much in this mode, this might help some of you to understand the problem deep enough to solve the issue. Thanks.
P.S. Though connecting to KIES is not of much use as we can back up data with some other apps but the major concern here is if in case (no hopes though) Samsung releases official firmware then we should have to use KIES to upgrade our OS version, then we will be in trouble.
After rooting with FuguRoot, Kies can't find my phone either. This seems to be a known issue but nikademus hasn't replied in his thread for some time now. Does anyone know why this happen and how to fix it? It seems a bit strange seeing how everything but the added su and busybox is stock..
Maybe some cache issue?
I can verify on that. After rooting my phone to make a backup with Titanium backup before upgrading with Kies, just to be on the safe side Kies doesnt work anymore with my galaxy3.
I tried unrooting the phone, but it did not help.
Strange thing is, that the usual information on the phone screen, saying that it is now connecting to the Kies did not show up. I did som trick like writing *#723572# (not pretty sure anymore what it realy was) and then setting it to modem and back to pda mode. Now I see the information saying on the mobile screen that it is trying to connect to samsung kies, but it still does not work.
I tried it on a virgin computer running xp sp3. I installed the newest Kies, than connected the phone, but now it says, that the connected phone is not in Kies (or Pc connect) mode, and I should change it to that. However the galaxy 3 screen says that it is definitely in Kies usb mode.
I will try later a factory reset and then an update through Kies to the latest fw. And after that a restore with Titanium backup.

Try unmounting your MicroSD card (Settings -> SD Card and Phone Storage -> Unmount SD Card) and then connect it to PC.
If you're on windows 7==> Kies, preference==> check: compatible with windows xp (service pack 3)
Hello guys
I ran through n no. of threads
I checked the steps for rooting the phone
And i did it accordingly but the "waiting for device" issue still prevails
I downloaded SE USB drivers as well though i don't know how to install them
I've PC companion's 2.0.0 version
I've SuperOneClick's 1.7 version
I'll tell you the steps i followed
1. SuperOneclick started
2. Click ROOT tab
3. Starting ADB... Waiting for status
4. With Unknown sources ON and USB debugging ON, i connect the phone
Even then it says Waiting for device
I read in the forums that it needs Windows Vista or 7
I've Windows XP Professional though 2002 Service pack 2 version
Pls help me get through this problem
Sorry for creating a new thread but i've been trying to this since hours together
What is the exact problem? And how do i check whether I've latest Sony Ericsson USB Drivers?
When it says waiting for device when phone is connected try to turn usb degging off and on or try to root phone with FlashTool
I´ve rooted on XP 2002 Home Edition SP3 without any problems.
Try it the following way, it worked perfectfor my sister´s phone with SE 2.1 (because I don´t know what I did with my phone any more , and we both have an E15i :
First of all, be sure that you are using the computer where you´ve upgraded to 2.1, or download the X8-drivers somewhere (google is your friend!^^)
extract the attached SuperOneClick.
Run the SuperOneClick.exe.
Enable USB debugging on your phone, but do not connect it yet.
Click "root".
let SOC start the ADB and the other stuff.
Connect your phone when it says "waiting for device".
After a few seconds, you should have root.
Try to install Sony ericsson update service...it will install the latest drivers during the installation of the program..
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

I see the problems are in Windows 7. The USB Conector seems ok. Untick "usb debugging" in ur phone and take a look this page. If dont appears nothing in the device manager, tell me it and i will give ya other solution
EDIT: Other option is:
- Uninstall completely Kies and Kies 3
- Reboot ur pc
- Download the latest version of Kies 3 (drivers are included, only tc what u select in the installation -> dont untick them)
- Conect ur phone to the pc with the USB conector and wait coz the drivers have to be installed. Till Windows dont finish of install them u dont need touch nothing. Good luck
I'm suprised that three peoples trying to help me, thats charming, thank you.
But...
Repulsa I've done what u wrote, I tried plugging s4 to another usb port, one port usb 2.0 and another usb 3.0, always was the same situation, the charging start coming but nothing more, there is no notification on phone screeon or on the pc. Also I tried do this in second pc, in 3 usb ports, but always was the same. After that I tried that what Repulsa and jaswinsky says, i re-install kies. First I uninstall in both pc kies, and i install the kies 3, I reboot my pc and I reboot my s4. Nothing new happens, only charging. Here i want to turn your attention that, I checked in both pc's my younger brothers Galaxy s2, and it havent any problems with connecting! If I plugging Galaxy s2 in this usb ports in both pc, windows 7 havent any problem to recognize phone! Kies and "My Computer" shows the device memory and its working. When I after that disconect s2 and plug in my s4 the same situation happens. Only charging icon, and nothing appears about connection.
After that i tried that what Joku1981 wrote, I untisck "usb debugging" in developer options and i checked the device manager, but there doesnt appears anything. There is not "other device" warning or anything like that. Charging icon appears but pc dont recognizing s4. I would also like to point out that, yesterday I've done with younger brother the format on one of this pc's with hope that will helps but, we format pc, reinstall windows7, reinstall all drivers, and the situation is still the same.
Please help me!
PS. I'm starting think about that the official OTA update do 4.4 will solve the issue..
