I'm on Cosmic CM ROM with F2FS file system on my phone. Phone is working smooth but just that I had backed up my data with KIES which I cannot connect to after installing the ROM.

Phone connects properly to the PC but not to KIES. I tried the KIES troubleshooting connection but didnt work either.
Please help. Thanks

I think it is impossible to connect with kies with custom roms it only supports stock roms :)

Tragedy on my side then. I searched over the net for this and got the same answer that KIES doesn't recognize Custom ROMs. So, I have lost my backed up data then:(

Only option is revert back to stock..restore data... Backup data in a much more restorable form :p ...
U didnt lost ur backed up data ;) u cant just restore it...
Btw what is the extesion of backed up file in kies? :/

I know that I haven't lost the data as it still resides on my PC. The extensions of the files are as below:
Configuration.bk
applications files are with .apk so i wonder if it will install the fresh app :confused: from playstore and not in the actual state when I had taken the backup.
One good thing about the backup is that music files are in .mp3 and photos are in .png or .jpeg :D which is cool.
So, just cannot restore the apps then and the SMemo files:(
