[How To] Enter Kies Studio Mode.

[Ollie]

Using Kies to backup your Contacts, Call Logs, Pictures, etc is one of my favorite perks with the SGS2. It is a convenient way for stock and rooted users to backup important data before venturing on to a newer firmware. Initially this mode was very frustrating to me because whenever I plugged my phone into my PC while running Kies a popup would tell me to enter Studio Mode before it would let me manipulate any data. The kicker is that it doesn't tell you how to do it.

1. Under Settings, Applications, Development disable USB Debugging.
2. Plug your phone into your PC via USB with Kies already running.
