[Q] I have problems with samsung kies...need help. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Its sound beginner questions. But after search I couldn't find the answer that I'm looking for.
Here are my problems...
1. When I open the kies, it says there is a new version 2.2.0.12014.18. Do you want to upgrade?
When I say yes...its keeps on downloading even though max. file size is 63Mb it went over 1.5GB so I have to cancel it.
2. When I go to Samsung download site and choose kies 2.0 for PC, at the end of scanning file it says it's not safe to use it. It may be a malware or virus contains it...so asks me either delete it or choose action for it.
What should I do?
Ignored and install it or should I wait for new version of kies come out?

Verizon SMT5800

I want to keep this phone but have issues. I pulled the battery cover, back of phone is a HTC SMT5800VW, LIBR100. It won't let me install several RD party apps, get this message "Installation was unsuccessful the program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permission. Apps are for windows 6 for smart-phone. Also with resco reg-edit I know of the keys to change security, but it won/t let me change the values for the keys, so I can install apps like Java so I can use opera mini. I know for a fact that the apps I want to install will work on other carriers version of this phone. Also this same apps PDA versions will install on Verizion version of the HTC. I assume they have locked the phone somehow. I had some of these same issues with my Motorola Q, but after making registry changes I could. On the Q I also used Microsoft Security Configuration Manager to change provision but no go with the SMT5800. Could some please help or point me in the right direction. If I can't install the software I want phone is going back.Thanks .
I too have this phone and I am getting the same "does not have sufficient system permissions" error when trying to install certain apps. Anyone know how to unlock the phone?

See post #2 in that link. Then download the attached file: cert_install_sp.zip. Then Unzip. Then run the included file on the SMT5800: SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab. This will resolve the issue. You don't need to use the included SDA unlock tool. Just load the cab file.
It Worked!!! Thanks!

Lookin' for some help with the ACR application!!!!

Hey guys,
I'm a newbie here, just joined last nite... I recently purchased a Touch Pro thru my local SPRINT Store. I was searchin' the web for an application that would allow me to record phone calls of my choice, and from what I can gather, ACR seems to be the way to go.....
So I read thru some posts here and decided to take it upon myself to give it a shot. Being that i'm rather ignorant to this sorta stuff, i'm a lil nervous about screwing something up.... I'm not an idiot, (well atleast not a complete one) but I am having some difficulties making this install go smoothly. I was able to download the 1.2.2. version to my phone. But the framework update doesn't quite seem to be going as smoothly......
I tried d/ling the 3.5 framework to my computer, then transfering it to my phone, but that didn't work.... Tried d/ling it on the phone itself, and it seems to have completely downloaded the file, but after that, nothing happened. I browsed thru the phone using file explorer to see if i could locate the NETCFSetupv35.msi file.....but cannot locate it any where.......
I'm sure this entire thread makes me look like a real dumbass, but i'm tryin my damndest to get this application to work, and it's frustrating the hell outta me cause i'm not that good at this stuff yet... Can someone point me in the right direction? I really appreciate the help, and atleast you all can have a good laugh at my ignornace.... you all make it look so easy, i'm very envious....
Is the 3.5 framework on the phone somewhere now since i downloaded the file? Do I just need to execute the file? or did it do that already and I'm just missing something??
I'm able to get the framework file on my phone. But for some reason, when ever I try to run it, it says there is no application associated with the file name. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ??? GIVE ME A HINT? ANYTHING? PLEASE???
plse check..
the following ( if you did ignore )
1. do you have windows mobile device centre, installed on you pc..?
if you have, connect phone with usb to pc.. sync... etc..,
if you have ..then.
install ...NETCFSetupv35.msi from pc... not phone ( it is not a .cab file, but .msi file ..so pc installation. ?
2,application will install from pc and tell you to check phone ,when required to do so ..install on device, not storage card of phone
thats it ...
good luck
Would also suggest you search in the Touch Pro forum as this is the HD forum
My sincere appologies. I did not realize I was posting in the wrong forum. I will direct my question to the proper place. Thank you.

Latest Kies 2.0.2.11071_128 Don't Show Samsung Apps

The latest kies update to version Kies 2.0.2.11071_128 dated 02 August 2011 don't include Samsung Apps.
Has anyone updated his/her kies on pc and observed same missing Samsung Apps Store? Could this be an
error on the part of Samsung? Or maybe the Apps store no longer will show for bada 1.2?
I tested with bada 1.2. Maybe bada 1.2 will no longer be supported (but we still have a long way to reach September )
Anyone with bada 2.0 and who has updated to Kies 2.0.2.11071_128
should please report if the the store show up when WAVE is connected to kies on pc.
It is a bug in kies for sure
i hate Samsung for these awful mistakes
remember the kies version which was able to open Samsung apps but can't install apps
Samsung is not the best software maker
Let's hope for an urgent quick update fixing this
Best Regards
I also noticed that each time that you launch kies,
the option in Memory order is always set to "Use internal memory first"
even though you have previously set it to "Use external memory first"
same here, after the update, Samsung Apps panel is not shown on Kies.
I think it is a bug on this version.
The solution
the solution for this bug is in this link :
http://www.mysamsungwave.com/index.php?topic=10092.50
For me, when my Wave with XPKG6 is connected, it works.

on the same page i have given another solution, other than simonwill,
the trick is..
1. install the immediate previous version of kies..(previous to kies ver 2.0.2.11071_128) or whatever version u were working on..b4 updating to "2.0.2.11071_128"
2. go to run -> regedit -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> software -> samsung -> Kies2.0(select it)
3. in the right hand window, look for Localver, right click on it, click on modify.
4. replace the whole value with this one "2.0.2.11071_128" (without the quotes)
5. open kies again, go to samsungapps normally, it wont ask u to upgrade to newer version so SAMSUNG FOOLED
this works like a charm
can someone upload the "Astore" and "StoreLib"
Kies.Common.StoreManager.dll
files here?
Here you go kadavil : http://www.mediafire.com/?w2ywwtqhymj06pb
The problem with the latest Kies 2.0.2.11071_128 not having the Samsung Apps store is as a result of either a corrupt "AStorePlugin.dll" or a wrong value assigned to this dll. The problem is only with the "AStorePlugin.dll".
To solve this problem, simply install the latest kies (either as a fresh install or an update over existing kies instalation. Restart PC.
1. Now go to Program Files\SAMSUNG\Kies\Plugins\AStore...
(a) inside the AStore folder, replace the "AStorePlugin.dll" with the one from the download link below (or from any previous kies installation)
NOTE: ONLY REPLACE the "AStorePlugin.dll" of size approx 4,014kb.
(Don't replace the small one of size about 4kb).
3. That's all. Now you can enjoy your new Kies 2.0.2.11071_128.

The above method works fine. But it displays the apps store with the old UI.
Another method to use the new kies and have the latest apps store UI is to modify region in registry. Do it this way.
1. From windows command, enter regedit.
2. Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER => Software => SAMSUNG =>
3. Now double-click folder "Kies2.0" .
4. On right-hand side of window, under Name column, look for "Region" (5th from
bottom)
5. Right-click on "Region" and select "Modify". Change the current region US to yours (or change to) UK.
6. That's all. The new kies will work 100% with the latest samsung apps store UI.
NB: Please see screenshot below for ref.
i cant understand this:
"from windows command, enter regedit" how can i do that with my PC?
Thanks

If you use Windows 7, just click on "Start" , on the search bar that appears, write "regedit" (without quotes), and press enter. You will be promted to a "Yes" or "No" option. Click Yes to go to the registry editor.
Once the registry opens, then continue from nº 2 of the instructions above.
NB: Please with this registry edit, you don't need to replace any AStore dll. Just install the latest kies, and in registry, change region from "US" to "UK". That's all.
NB!: If you use Windows XP, you will have to enter "cmd" first at Windows Start button, then "regedit", etc. (I hope I'm correct; it's long time now I haven't used an XP machine )
Thanks spacks, that worked like magic !
Thanks spacks...

Right, US has no store xD
Thank you so much
Yes, maybe the corrupt AStore.dll is wrongly installing US as region by default. Let's hope Samsung will correct this error soon to prevent innocent people from messing up their pc registry.
Thanks.

Kies, disable Autoupdate... customize, hack... remove

I'm not using often Kies. But ever I want short test something...
Kies will update some crap...
This costs time...
How to prevent stupid Updates?
Thanx.
Best Regards
To prevent Kies from updating You hve to edit with regedit "LocalVer" key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies2.0, and just set it to higher version.
To prevent Samsung Apps plugin from updating You could cut off " <ServerURL>http://msupdate.emodio.com</ServerURL> " form AStorePlugin.xml which is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\Plugins\AStore.
Also, You can block update servers in hosts file.
After last annoying surprise with appstore Plugin...
I've realized that you can remove plugins...
I use Kies ONLY for App Installation... as no alternate way via PC for bada 2...
Anyway...
If I rename
C:\Programme\Samsung\Kies\Plugins\PodcastService
into
C:\Programme\Samsung\Kies\Plugins\1PodcastService
And 2 other Pod folders...
Then see Screenshots.
WARNING!
No sideeffects known.
Maybe faster Kies start... maybe we should check few files...
Best Regards
Edit 1.
8 folders "renamed":
Code:
1MusicManager
1MusicStore
1Phonebook
1PhotoManager
1Podcast
1Podcaster
1PodcastService
1VideoManager
Result is last Pic...
Kies seems now faster start.
No sideffects seen. BUT at your own risk.
But the problem is even if you can disable kies update with registry, when you want to open samsung apps plugin, if there is an update available you cannot get that upload because of registry fixes so you cannot even use it for app installation
I've tried all ways, they only work if you dont need samsung apps plugin
Here's the sniffing log when opening kies
you can open it via "Wireshark"
look at line 10
line 25
line 45 is for samsung apps plugin update check

[SOLVED] Connecting Note II to PC via USB Cable

Hi all,
(Note from OP: Can't change thread title, but if I could I would change "solved" to "proposed solution", because that's what this is: a kind of workaround.)
First, to the best of my knowledge, the Hardware ID problem when connecting the Note II to a PC via microUSB cable isn't yet solved; my apologies if it was.
I got it to work on my Rogers i317M model (like at&t) but I've no reason to think it won't work on other models.
The solution is Kies, but not in the way one might think: yes, Kies provides the solution, but to do this you won't actually be using the Kies software—just gonna borrow it a little while .
First, install Kies on your PC if it isn't already; it wasn't for me as I never use it normally. You can download it from the support pages of Samsung's website (look for a "useful software" link I think), but goo.gl/h6fwMI is a direct download link to the one I used. Note that it takes its sweet time installing, about three full minutes (which feel like 30 or so) . . . do not have your device connected to the PC during installation.
The key feature we're exploiting here is that Kies will hook your PC up with whatever it needs to have the Note II communicate via USB properly with it. Before stumbling on this method, I had the Samsung drivers installed alright, and all I was getting when connecting was the Hardware ID message, like I know many others do. Note that I did not remove the old Samsung drivers before installing Kies . . . not saying it has to be done that way, just saying that's how I did it.
Once installation is complete, close Kies completely; for me that meant popping open the Windows Task Manager (right-click the taskbar or [Ctrl] [Shift] [Esc]) and manually killing two (2) Kies processes, on top of closing the Kies app window itself of course.
Now try connecting your device with the cable . . . you will probably get a Windows AutoPlay popup . . . go into Default Programs > Autoplay Settings and you should see the phone at the very bottom of the list (Figure 1. attachment) . . . configure it to Open device to view files using Windows Explorer as in the figure.
Now when you connect your phone to your PC, Windows Explorer will pop open a file window, which is what we were looking for, and there should be no sign of the Hardware ID problem. The window that will open will look like Figure 2.—take a look, you'll see it doesn't assign the device a drive letter as expected. Instead, it will show up under Computer as its own device, bearing two "drives": Card and Phone (if there's no external SD card in your device you'll just see Phone). Click Phone and you're ready to go! (see Figure 3.).
Two further considerations:
I don't suggest uninstalling the Kies software afterward. I set about doing so (using Revo Uninstaller) to see if I would still be able to connect, and the first popup I got said "Uninstall SAMSUNG USB Driver for Mobile Phones?" That didn't sound encouraging, so I aborted it, and for now I suggest leaving Kies installed, at least until and unless someone tries it and reports back with a verdict.
As a followup to the previous point (a consolation prize, you might say :laugh, you can prevent Kies from starting up every time you boot your computer, so that, even though installed, it will be inactive and out of the way. You need a startup manager of some kind. Windows has its own somewhere—msconfig maybe—but I used the one in the Auslogics® bundle and found no less than four (4) items added by the Kies installer which I had to uncheck (see Figure 4.). I may be keeping Kies installed, but I can at least make sure it's quiet
In short:
1. Install Kies
2. Stop all Kies-related activity:
· the app itself (if running)
· two (2) processes
· four (4) lines in Startup
3. Connect phone to PC with USB cable
4. Configure Windows Autoplay to "view files" when you connect
5. Do the dance of joy
The end result is pretty much that any time you connect your device with your PC via USB cable, a window with the file contents of the device will appear, allowing you to cut/copy/paste/move files at will, at the cost of a piece of inactivated software residing on the PC.
I'd be interested to hear how it goes with others... good luck!
