Our learned poster 'Beards' has strongly suggested using Odin and to not even try to use Kies. The majority of users who've tried it seem to be having problems with it of one kind or another. I've even gone as far as downloading the Kies program.but frankly I'm afraid to run it. Well, I'm thinking seriously about doing a FW upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2.1. Begins to make me wonder about the Samsung LED TV I've been looking at as well.maybe Sony would be a better bet! The basic device is fantastic(that screen!) but it begins to feel like they aren't really that bothered about quality in any other area. Windows desktop and mobile users have had that for years! Moving software licences is always a bit of a pain if a device has to be replaced but it's a lot easier than rebuilding the whole thing.īetween Kies and the incredilbly unreliable GPS I'm beginning to wonder about my Galaxy S purchase.

I wonder too why the might of Samsung couldn't manage to put a complete device image backup into this software? Surely most users would like to have a complete backup image saved in the event of a dead device or corrupted flash memory.and a simple way to recover that to the same (and preferrably a replacement) device. It really is appalling and frankly I'd be embarrassed to release junk like this.
SAMSUNG KIES TAB 4 UPDATE
and tell me again that there's an update available. I've just been through 4 iterations of it telling me there's an update and then proceeding to bomb out of the download, leave the splash screen process still running and start up again. mainly because it simply won't connect to my SGS on my normal XP desktop, though all my other Nokia, HTC, 3rd party backup et al software work just fine.
SAMSUNG KIES TAB 4 INSTALL
I'm running it on an almost stock XP Pro install on a laptop device that has very few additional drivers loaded. Frankly there doesn't really seem to be anything that it does satisfactorily. It is, as you say, atrociously slow and it's very unreliable. and managed embedded and PC software development for more than 20 years. Well, having written operating systems, comms programs and a host of other stuff.
