[QUOTE="Deleted member 178, post: 55552"] You know that most phone's vendors "force" you to use their own apps to upload/download files between your phone and computer. As you also know, KIES is heavy, use a lot of resource with many processes and startup items, and is not very necessary (unless u need to update your firmware). So there is how to deal without it : [b] 1- if Kies already installed:[/b] - Uninstall it but keep the driver (dont check the box) - Connect your phone via usb - Normally a "removable disk" icon appears on your computer panel but when clicking on it , it says "please insert a disk in removable disk... - Dont panic, normally your phone taskbar should show an usb icon - Scroll down the bar, now you should see under ongoing, "usb connected - select to copy files to/from your computer" - Tap on it - The Android logo appears with "connect storage to pc" button, tap on it - A popup will appear, tap ok - Your phone will connect then a window will open showing your phone files and in your computer panel the icon of "removable disk" will show the phone disk space. - Done [b]2- if Kies not installed[/b] - Just Download and install the usb driver (not kies): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956 - then do the step above. Thanks :D [/QUOTE]
