What's your current setup? Are you rooted? What ROM are u running? Kernel? You might need to restore the file u deleted. Also, make sure Samsung drivers are installed on ur laptop, try using a different USB cable, different USB ports, etc.

Try holding the home button and hit task manager, from there try to see if you can get to the market or even a web browser and you need to download a new launcher like launcherpro or another helauncher

Windows does not see my G2

Hi Everyone
The problem is that Windows 7 64 bits, does not see my G2 anymore.
It does charge when i plug the USB.
I've tried on a different PC so I don't think the PC is the problem.
I have Cyanogen Mod installed as ROM. I can't get adb, nothing through the USB cable. Switch to diff cables as well just in case, installed Sense ROM as well no luck yet
Please help

did you install the htc usb drivers?
(google for them or install htc sync)

could not find on google the drivers.
any htc sync would work?
can't find any htc sync specific for g2

If I didnt remember wrongly, it has something to do with ADB. Go google for "google usb driver".

so i´ve done the searching - hit the thanks button

Download HTC Sync from the support section of HTC's website, they have one version for all their Android phones. That will give you the drivers you need. Also see the adb guide in my signature.

Make KIES work on OSX Mountain Lion

Ok so this definitely worked for me (Finally!), so I wrote down the exact steps I took so you can try it on your machine. I haven't installed anything different on my iMac like drivers for Samsung or whatnot, but I did have a functioning KIES prior to Mountain Lion update. I uninstalled KIES since receiving Mountain Lion since it stopped working for me.
- Download the latest version of Samsung Kies: http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
- Open the downloaded DMG
- Once you have the .Kies20mac_S8173.pkg file window with the "Uninstall.app", right click on the KIES20mac_S8173.pkg and open using "The Unarchiver" and extract to a folder (I created a KIES folder on my desktop)
- From here you will see a file called "contents.pkg", Right click and select "Show Package Contents"
- Double click "Payload", it will create a file called "Payload-1", (at least it did for me)
- double click "Payload-1" and it will create another file called "Payload-1-1"(the payload part seems to have just duplicated so you may only need to do this once. But keep opening until you see the Applications Folder)
- In "Payload-1-1" you'll find the Applications folder, within the Applications folder you'll see the "Kies.app".
- Transfer the Kies.App to the Applications folder and then run Kies.
Should work fine and should also detect your Galaxy S 3.
HOWEVER
If you already have KIES installed but doesn't detect your phone or keeps prompting for update, try this:
1) Open the Kies menu and select Preferences
2) Click on the Update tab at the end
3) Uncheck the 'Notify when updates are available'
4) Close and restart Kies.
5) Now try connecting your device.
Or try uninstalling your current installation of KIES and try following the steps I listed above.
FYI, I am running a rooted stock ROM for Rogers with Kalagas Theme installed.
I hope this works for you too

i will give this a shot tomorrow! hoping it works, is there a way to make android file transfer work?

I got it installed, but Kies refuses to detect my phone. I reinstalled drivers and still nothing. It says "connecting" but never connects.

I had this at first but I tried a different USB port and it eventually detected my phone. I also tried toggling Camera >< MTP
I also found that using a JellyBean ROM it has a harder time detecting, I oft have to reconnect my USB a couple of times.

I thought this had been confirmed to only work if you ALREADY had Kies installed before upgrading to ML?
I tried and it doesn't work on a new install.

WHat I did was install the latest Kies for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it worked perfectly fine for me, no modifications needed.

Link?

Cool now we just need a tutorial on getting kies to run on windows!

New Kies came out yesterday. the non working version found and update. It installs on Mountain Lion and works.

Did you uninstall Kies and the drivers? Kies can be a problem. Also, do you have sdk tools installed? It comes with drivers that work for sure. Let me find the link for drivers for you, it should work. What version of windows are you both running?

Same issue. Un installed kies other drivers reinstalled every thing....still g get the message from time to time

Are you guys making sure you are running the application as admin during install? Also make sure you are not sandboxing the install (ie certain virus scans, firewalls, and such). Some of them will sandbox by default which can cause problems.

Connect your Note 2 to Mac OSX

Does not work for me not sure what the deal is

Not working here either. Sucks using Kies.

There is a widely documented issue with this software and OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). It doesn't work. Thank goodness for dual booting windows 7 I suppose. It is pretty interesting that the latest Apple software prevents their biggest phone competitor from working properly.

My ML & Note 2 connects perfectly with each other. If you are having issues then try AirDroid from the Play store. There is no need to dual boot but to each their own.

Also, if you have Kies installed, un-install that & try connecting again via AFT.

yeah airdroid works flawlessly with mac

Guys, AirDroid is great and all, but will not help much when it comes to transferring game and app files etc...

could not use Android File Transfer while Kies was installed. Simply dragging the app folder (Kies) to the trash won't fix the problem either. You have to download and run the Kies installer package but choose UNINSTALL when it starts and it will clean everything up for you. (I suppose there is an agent or two for Kies that is sitting out there.)
After that, AFT works great. (remember to bump up your device lock timeout though or it will disconnect on you if it locks during a transfer!

Thanks! I just googled kies, went to the official samsung/kies website, downloaded the program for my mac, opened up the download, ran the uninstall program, once done I plugged note 2 to my macbook pro via usb and viola! It worked perfectly without having to reinstall kies.

U r my hero!!!

I found out that you cannot have Kies installed and android transfer installed on your Mac at the same time or else android transfer will not work.

Yes, you can't have KIES installed for it to work. It was posted in #5 that KIES must be uninstalled. Sometimes it helps to read the whole thread when there are only a few pages to read. =)
