I have been having issues with connecting the phone via USB. I just got a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant and I absolutely love it. If anyone has any ideas on how I can get my phone to connect to my computer, preferably through keis but would be happy to just have computer recognise phone, please let me know as I'm really getting very sad :-( I've checked updates in kies and it assures me I am using the most recent version of it.
SAMSUNG KIES FOR WINDOWS 7 PC DRIVERS
I'm runnings windows 7 64-bit, have used the drivers that came with the phone on the minidiscs, and uninstalled them and downloaded kies from samsung. I has tried with and without an external sd card, and with/without the internal sd card mounted, with the phone on and off when plugging in the usb cable (funnily enough, kies will autostart if the usb is plugged in and I turn the phone on, yet wont autostart if the phone is already on and I plug in the usb. I could use it once as mass storage when WMP recognised it and allowed me to sync some music onto it - now it wont recognise it either. Occasionally it will start installing the drivers but theu always cr*p out and come up with the red cross of disappointment. I just wanted to ask a question - has anyone else tried all these fixes and still had no sucess? No matter what I do, kies doesn't recognise the phone and neither does the computer. I am now totaly and utterly confused - must be my age. I would have expected it to be more like the 5.78 and 5.15 GB mentioned above. At the bottom there is a sub-heading Internal phone storage, it states the Available space is 1.83 GB which is nowhere what I thought it would be on a phone with a stated 8GB of internal memory. On the subject of SD cards, under the aforementioned heading there is a sub-heading at the top External SD card, what in God's name is that ?. On tapping Mount SD card they show 5.78 GB and 5.15 GB respectively and the music player now works.

I've discovered that the problem I had with the music player was that when scrolling down the SD card and phone storage, there is a sub- heading Internal SD card, under that heading is Unmount SD card, and although I don't have a card fitted in the phone I accidently chose that option and it removes the results under Total space and Available space.

I did contact Samsung support today, and was told they were having teething problems with the Kies software,and somehow he talked me through the problem, my pc now recognises my phone.
