    Did you replaced gdbserv from ARM Extras "menu" (as in link from first post of this topic)?

    I'm using 2.3.5 (from around 09.2011). "Real" GDB Server comes from device "manufacturer", AFIK this gdbserv is only some kind of bridge between real GDB server and application. So it might be it (new version of Android in device --> possible new/fixed version of GDB Server).
    Also you might try to update Kies as it comes with new USB drivers that allows USB debugging.


    If above won't help, you might try to switch USB cable to other USB port .
    Today at work I saw problems with debugging Java/Dalvik code (or even problems with adb connection), when 1,8m USB cable was plugged into back PC USB ports (it might be some USB3.0 ports). When cable was plugged into front-PC USB ports, then there was no problems at all.
    When I plug SGS2 to combo USB+eSata+"Charge" port in my laptop, it connects/disconnects device every 1-2s. I need use only 'regular' USB ports.
