No...
It installs drivers if the device already has the same included...
Fit is not plug-and-play, which means you need to install drivers manually...or install kies...
Whichever you prefer...

You don't have to use it if you don't want. Installing Kies means you're installing USB drivers, you don't have to start kies everytime when you connect ur phone through usb. I've installed kies but never used it. I use it HIGHLY OCCASIONALLY.

Yup kies is waste of mem (if u ask me ) for drivers go to sammobile website registr n check our phn specific drivers its just around 25mb file dats easy if u dnt want kies

I found it easier to install drivers kies then uninstall kies

Even after installing kies it is still charging. Device is not connected to kies.
hey i am using the usb cable of galaxy ace. is it the problem? but i think these cables can be used on both the devices.

I use the same cable on 2 different blackberry's, my nokia 5310 and c3, samsung monte, and acer liquid metal...
So I don't think that's the problem...
Have you tried using a different computer?

yes i have triedon different computers also.. but its not working there too.

Hi.
I had the problem too. I did this to connect my phone:
1. Go in DownloadMode. Now, the computer must install drivers, like odin.
2. If the installation finished, hold down the Powerbutton for 10 seconds. It'll restart, if nothing happens try to start with holding the powerbutton again.
3. Then, if the phone is started, your computer finds the phone!
I'm not responsible for any damages!!!!

The problem i have found Microsoft generic drivers are being used instead of the samsung drivers it seems to me.

That is why you need to uninstall all drivers for phone,reboot, install drivers,reboot,plug phone in DO NOT let computer search windows update.Once you stop it from downloading from Microsoft it will load drivers you installed.

I just tried it again. deleted drivers and rebooted.
Installed Kies mini and rebooted.
I have had driver search turned off, but double checked and rebooted for safe measure and it still installed the the generic drivers.
deleted drivers and devices the way i know how and used the link above to make sure.
I even went in Deview and made sure that the any generic driver was gone as well.
Still getting the issue.
Any other suggestions.
I'm at a loss not
what am i missing.

Which version of windows are you running,if running 7 when you plug phone in after deleting etc.you should new device installer telling you it is installing your new device,then it will say click here to view progress. Click immediately, when that pops up at bottom of it is link saying do not search microsoft for updated drivers. it will ask if you are sure yes you are. Then it will search computer and use drivers from Kies

That did not work for me, but i did find this:
You can get the results above in Windows 7 Home Premium through the registry editor ... not going to tell you how to edit the registry... I'll assume you know how...
Add/update the following DWORD value in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions]
"DenyUnspecified"=dword:00000001
I had to manually add the "DeviceInstall" and "Restrictions" keys, then add the dword value "DenyUnspecified" and set it to 1.
To turn enable again, change DenyUnspecified to 0.
Now that i have stopped the automatic windows driver install, I thought i would be Ok but I'm still having issues with the proper infuse drivers. this just sucks odin will still not recognize my phone.

Ok any help.
I was able to stop windows 7 from installing the generic drivers by editing the registry, but the computer will not recognize the drivers from Samsung direct download or kies mini.
When doing a search to choose the driver windows 7 will not detect the drivers
I have tried the drivers from above, kies mini, kies, and samsung. no luck.
with the generic drivers it will still mount the storage cards no problem, adb works i just cant get odin or kies to work.

Install keis and don't let windows search for drivers

Any luck getting your phone to show up? Windows doesn't even acknowledge my phone is plugged in. This is on my win7 laptop, my pc still connects to the phone fine. Tried 3 different cables and reloaded drivers/rebooted several times. Phone does charge however.

Sorry no luck here, I gave up on the process. I gave the phone away to some one that needed a phone and i know would not be doing any technical stuff to it.

gt-s 5360 not starting

I have a Samsung galaxy y young gt-s 5360. I have already flashed it once and I had rooted it some time ago. Now it will not turn on either does it go on recovery mode. Only when it is connected does it go on download mode but Odin doesn't recognize it. It did go on once by chance but have no idea how. Is they a way to fix it. (I tried changing port, cable ext. but odin still doesn't recognize it)

Are you sure you have the correct firmware?
If it connects then doesn't connect, it might be a faulty USB port on the device or a faulty USB cable, if either is worn out it won't connect or stay connected.

Do you have the full set of USB drivers installed? Or do you only have the drivers that auto-install when you first connected the device?
If you have the full drivers installed, have you tried in installing the drivers then restarting PC then re-installing the drivers and restarting PC then try Odin again?
Have you made sure that you don't have Kies running in the background? Kies must be fully closed and have no processes running, it interferes with Odin.
Have you tried different USB ports? 2.0 ports work better with Odin than 3.0 ports.
Have you tried different USB cables?

you need a microwave to defrost it
Anyway, if you have windows update, the drivers should install automatically. If they don't, try this https://androidmtk.com/download-samsung-usb-drivers Just choose your model and download

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite 3G SM-T111 - Unable to flash firmware via Odin

Hi,
I am new to the forum so please forgive me if I have the wrong section where to post.
Anyway, for a few days I've been trying to save a friend's Galaxy Tab 3 Lite, which apparently worked fine until some time ago, but for no reason one day the system stopped booting and the tablet got stuck in bootloop. I tried to download different versions of the firmware, from the oldest to the newest, I tried to install TWRP as the device lacks recovery mode, but nothing, any flash attempt with Odin continues to fail.
I no longer know what to try and I begin to believe that this device is officially to be thrown away. If you have any advice do not hesitate to write to me.
Thank you in advance.
