Default Kies problem on the phone!

I am connecting it to my computer and all that happens is that it's going from home to kies then back and forth.... Anybody know about this? or a way to fix it?
Or is it normal and just takes forever to connect??

It's on the phone, the initializing is going to home, then back to usb thing, (kies) back to home, back to kies....... on the phone.. On Kies on the computer it's just waiting.

Here's a video of the stuff that is going on...

I had this problem too. It was caused because only in idle mode of the Samsung home launcher can keis connect. You may have installed a different launcher. Try the following:

Put use to keis mode in settings
download home switcher from the market
run home switcher an set touchwiz as default home
Reboot phone (task killing other launchers don't work for me.)
make you phone is in the home screen - press home to get there
now connect the cable with keis running on pc
sync everything you need to

In future I suggest you move all contact to Google so they sync over the air and you'll no longer need keis. crappy software!

Thanks, didnt work i think, I never used kies, gave it up and un-installed it. All my contacts was google But I thought I needed kies to get the phone connected. But after uninstall I figured I was wrong.
I agree, kies was crap.
