I am - but I have no idea how to sort it.

I had a similar problem a few months ago, where it would reach 100% but keep on downloading something (and never stop). The only way I could find to solve it was to uninstall it and download the latest version from Samsung, seemed to solve the problem for me, but I'm not sure how easy it is to back up any settings/phone backups from Kies if necessary

my kies version is 2.0.2, the new update is 2.0.3 after i hit the update button, and finished the update, when i check again my kies still in 2.0.2 version, and keeps on asking me to update. and i did update it wont update to the latest version! what version you got?

 

[Russell Ng]

Did you update Kies with the phone connected to the PC? Try without the phone. After update only join the USB cable.

 

[fonduekid]

I don't have any problem in updating.

Try without the phone connected to the PC (as Russell suggested)...

Try disabling your antivirus. That worked for me.

 

[caloyzki]

i update it without connected to my phone.

and i dont think my anti virus is the problem because for the previous updates it updated without doing anything with my anti virus.

what kies version you guys have?

Follow the instructions shown clearly in your screenshot:-

Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging... uncheck it to make it compatible with Kies.

Have you installed the latest version of Kies, see here:-

This comes with new drivers. If you have trouble connecting with this then use the Connection Troubleshooter under Tools and see if that helps.

The latest version of Kies has only been released in the last few hours I believe.
(Most recent versions of Kies start with 2.3... it's the last bit that counts)

I believe that is one of Hawker's suggestions in the post I linked you to.

I can't really believe that you went through the whole procedure laid out in Hawker's post in under 12 minutes!

 

[Russell Ng]

At least its updated. On 2.3.....

hello again, im sorry. when i insert my usb from my pc it says on my phone connected to media device. it suppose to be MTP device. how am i gonna change the media device to be MTP device? maybe that is the cause of my problem. thanks

Just got the prompt to update Kies, updated and it still said it was on 2.2, so tried my own advice from earlier in this topic and uninstalled it. Downloaded the new version from Samsung's site, but the download file has the old version number as well. Looks like they're either slow rolling out the Kies update to all regions (slow updates are definitely not something we attribute to Samsung lately ), or they've completely messed up the update numbers somehow. I'll give it a day or so and try downloading it again. If anyone is having trouble with Kies and needs access to their phone, try the Airdroid app. Its like Kies air, but much faster and better in general.

Try this to install the MTP drivers.

Open Kies with phone disconnected and select Tools > Troubleshoot connection error

Follow the instructions precisely there to re-install your drivers... this can take a little while, so be patient.

If this does not work then I am at a loss as what to suggest further for you.

i did restore factory settings my phone thinking it would help with kies, but same problem happened. maybe kies is the one having some problem not my phone?
