![]() ![]() Secondly: The other day and for a few days before that I was trying to get Android File Transfer to work. ![]() Just start up AppCleaner and type in 'kies' and every iteration of kies will come up, including 'cooKIES' so you'll have to go down the list and filter out all of the Samsung Kies junk and individually send them to the Trash. There used to be an app on OS X and OS 9 called Sherlock that is no longer being included with the OS, but there is an app called AppCleaner that I've been using for years now and it works like a champ. Ok, this is an old thread, but I see that people are still having problems with getting Android File Transfer to work on their Macs, especially after having installed KIES.įirst of all, you're not going to get rid of ALL Kies remnants just by using the Kies uninstaller, and Spotlight is useless. Hopefully this works for everyone, good luck. Mac: Launch Android File Transfer (give it some time, 10 seconds of nothing + 5+ seconds of beach ball seems normal) Phone: Plug into Mac, from top menu verify phone is Connected as a Media Deviceħ. Phone: System Settings -> Developer Options -> Check USB debuggingĦ. Mac: download + install latest version of Android File Transferĥ. Mac: download Kies + run installer choosing Uninstall option + empty Mac trashĤ. Mac: uninstall Android File Transfer using AppCleaner or something similar that removes all ancillary filesģ. Phone: uninstall Kies using Titanium Backup Pro (link to non-paid version) + restart phoneĢ. Mac Android USB Connection + File Transfer Fixġ. Galaxy S3 - rooted, stock kernel, running FreeGS3 v3 (which BTW is a really solid rom) I have to think things over.After trying everything under the sun including installing the Android SDK on my Mac to try and trouble shoot (spit back some random errors), it appears that Kies is the very much the problem.Ĭan't speak to other phones, builds, kernels, OSes etc but here's what I got and did. I don’t feel well and I don’t have nerves for all of this at the moment. Yeah, didn’t work either, got stuck at “shutting down in 1 second” for 10 minutes until I powered if the system manually.Īs I said above, it really feels like Linux is mocking me. ![]() ![]() So everything was finally on the stick and I tried to unmount it. Again, manually creating the folder and copying the files worked. On the second case Dolphin told me that it can’t create the folder itself. Although they don’t and manually creating the folder and copying the files into did work. For the first one Dolphin told me that some filenames contain characters not supported by ExFAT. Took forever and three days to finish and I had to skip two folders. So I thought mtp, I will now just copy everything to a stick and transfer it to my phone using USB OTG. I started copying and it looked like it works…until about 15% when the connection to the phone was once again lost and the copy process aborted. Installed Android udev and then Android File Transfer connected to my phone. I installed Android File Transfer, couldn’t connect to my phone at all. ![]()
