Connecting the Samsung Galaxy S3 to Kies via USB

Connecting my new Samsung Galaxy S3 to Kies via Wi-Fi worked first time, but trying to connect it via a USB cable failed every time.

Here is what worked for me:


  • Unplug the USB cable from the GS3
  • go to "Settings" > "Developer Options"
  • Enable "USB debugging"
  • Connect the USB cable from the GS3 to the PC
  • The PC will now install a bunch of drivers automatically
  • When the drivers have installed, unplug the USB cable from the GS3
  • go to "Settings" > Developer options"
  • Disable "USB debugging"
  • Connect the USB cable from the PC to the GS3

After doing this, the SGS3 connected to Kies

    Had dramas with not connecting to kies, enabled the debugging function and let it install the correct files on win7 64 bit OS, then turned off debugging and works a treat! Thanks

    Tried this, doesn't work.
    Galaxy s3 connects to the pc fine, I can see the phone in windows explorer and I can transfer files no problem.
    But it won't connect to Kies! Whats wrong?

    For those who are just using a standard Micro USB cable. I was using my old HTC cable. I thought USB is USB, but upon using the Samsung Micro USB cable all is working without question. I have no ideal what the difference is, but with my HTC cable, it would only charge and with Samsung cable, it connects as a full device.
