        I downloaded Samsung Kies, Samsung PC Studio 3 and New PC Studio and updated all of them. BUT still, KIES doesn't detect my phone.

                  nikhil, 12 Nov 2010@ GETMAN 1) which software did u use for video conversio... more1) Format Factory
                  2) From local mobile shop. Theoretically any Micro USB cable will work provided latest drivers are installed. I also asked for original, he said its Rs 550. But I bought Chinese one for Rs 80.
                  3) I use Samsung Kies to connect. New PC studio or PC studio 3 doesn't detect the handset.
                  4) Headphones are simply awesome with various presets like Pop, Rock, Wide, Surround. One can actually feel the difference.
                  Loudspeaker are not of music quality. If you listen music through speakers then better look for other music phones, but for listening through headphones its way better than other music phones. Also for some specific high quality ringtones the sound is just awesome and can be heard easily.
                  5) Keypad is spacious, I do not text much, so cant comment much on regular smsing. You do not have to press hard to enter in a key, so can be used with one had easily.

                      Watched two and half hour movie of Robot. Awesome battery, could have watched another movie and still have some more left.

                      The movie settings I used for conversion are:
                      320x240
                      Data rate: 384 kbps
                      FPS: 18
                      Total Bitrate: 447kbps
                      Audio Bitrate: 64kbps 22khz sample rate

                      I have tested a HD video converted to upto 1Mbps data rate and 320kbps audio with 44khz sampling. Works smoothly without any problems.

                      An issue I have observed, the video and audio goes out of sync after watching for a few minutes, have to close and open the video file again to wath it in sync. Not a big issue for me since it differs only by a 1-2 seconds.

                        Harshith Mannem, 11 Nov 2010Do you mean I need to update 'Samsung NPC'?"Samsug New PC Studio" available from the website is different from what we got with our USB data cable cd, that is "Samsung PC studio 3" (new prefix not there). I am talking about the driver cd software Samsung PC studio 3, it checked for update immediately after I installed it and downloaded updates.

                                    I read someone saying that internet cannot be connected through KIES. I just want to say that you CAN connect to internet flawlessly with KIES.

                                      Harshith Mannem, 11 Nov 2010Is is an M600 cable? I installed the drivers from the cd... moreYes, I too have M600 cable. Since this is a new set make sure to update the driver, did you download the 19mb of update?

                                      Since it says the usb is unrecognized, the drivers appropriate to the handset are not yet installed, so updating drivers is very important.

                                      Since this is the first time I am using a samsung set, I installed whatever is available for it, namely:
                                      1) Driver cd which has Samsung PC Studio 3, updated to latest version 3.2.3 IE2
                                      2) Samsung Kies 1.5.3.10093_82
                                      3) New PC studio 1.5.1.10064_2 downloaded from http://www.samsungmobile.co.uk/support/softwaremanuals/softwareNpsUpdate.do

                                      While writing these version numbers I noticed, Kies last update was in 2009 whereas NPC's last update is in 2010. So if you can download NPC and try it, it might do the trick.

                                        I installed the drivers from the cd I got with cable. Then, I installed KIES and re-started the computer. When I connect the phone, the Windows' task bar says that an un-recognized usb device is connected. My phone automatically connects to the pc and then disconnects itself over and over again.

                                        I even master-resetted the phone, but to no avail.
