Hi guyz, can anyone please advise me..
These are what i've done:
- installed kies
- installed driver from kies
- factory reset sgs2
Info:
* i even reformat my Windows 7 (i thought it gets conflict with my previous SGS driver) and started everything from fresh but still fail
* Kies detects my phone, i can browse contacts etc. but Odin still fail to detect in download mode
* my phone is a branded O2 Ireland. Sim free
* i've tried on other PC but still fail
Please help me, i lost hope.. i just want to Root my phone
First check : Miccrosoft.Net Framework 4 must be installed , download at :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/deta...&displaylang=enIf you have this already install : NEXT
KIES is still a funny piece of software ; it is unreliable and cases of PC failing to detect phone is common. Just google this issue and you will see many of such cases. You can try this :
Install the proprietary Samsung USB phone drivers : Google for this exe file : SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.3.350.0.exe
If still cannnot detect, than need a longer way : install Google default USB phone drivers
Download android sdk at :
http://developer.android.com/sdk/Run the exe file. Remember where you extract the files. Locate SDK manager - run it. You will have few dialog box instruction , follow it till you are a prompted to install the packages. Minimum select Android 2.0 and above all files - the download of these could take up to half hour or more
Restart computer
