Flashtool SWT problem - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I'm getting this problem.. on flashtool. My flashtool gets installed with only partial options and even those don't work properly. Tried it on Win 7, win 8 but no luck. Both windows versions x64. Tried using admin rights for everything too. But on my win 8 desktop, I got it working after 10-15 installs, somehow. But I had to format my OS and lost all data.
I read this but since I dont have enough posts, I cant post there for help.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38995465
I downloaded flashtool version 9.10.1 from androxyde.github.io
Googled this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40808538
I not sure about using old version so I didn't try an old version.

[Q] Does Odin work in 64 bit versions of Windows or not

I've heard people say they have gotten Odin to work on their 64 bit versions of windows, but I cant. I am able to use it on a computer running Windows 7 - 32bit, but not either of the computers I've got running 64 bit.
I've definitely installed the 64 bit the drivers. I can access the phone in ADB on these computers. Odin sees the phone and throws up a com port, but I get a weird error message with Chinese characters when I try to move forward with the flash.
Anyone have a definitive answer? Is it possible to use Odin on Win 7 64bit?
I flashed the leaked J12 with Odin on my 64bit Windows 7 laptop without any trouble.
I flashed with Odin on my W7 64bit desktop. Had a little trouble with it sticking on the verifying files at the beginning, but restarted it and it ran fine the second time. That's the only experience I've had with Odin. Just though I'd let you know that it works on my 64bit machine.
Thanks guys. I dont know what the hiccup is on my end. I might go through my drivers again just to make sure that isnt the issue.
I would highly suspect that the drivers are the issue as have used Odin on 2 separate 64bit machines. Make Sue that after u download the Sammy drivers, that they are installed, and installed correctly.
they call me...kick ass
I was never able to make any win7 system recognize my vibrant in dl mode at all, 32 or 64 bit, no matter what drivers i tried. I even tried to extract the 64 bit drivers to the 32 bit Os as I had seen mentioned in a thread some people had success with. Xp ran it like a champ on the first attempt.

I know were talking about different phones here but I've been scouring the internet trying to find a solution to a problem I'm having right now. when switching from 1 custom ROM to another, it was required that I flash to stock EC05, then flash to EE?? my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 wouldnt work properly (kept getting stuck in boot.bin in ODIN0 but my old faithful Netbook with Windows XP Home SP3 (x86) workd flawlessly!
I'm talking 3 HOURS of trying to get the Win7x64 to work properly and had my Epic reflashed with XP in 3minutes and 27 seconds, not counting time to install Samsung Drivers into XP (30-45 seconds)
Granted this is my experiance, but before I got x64 I was running with Win7 X86 and still never had problems. I have read through Google search that other people with x64 Windows 7 had problems. This is my story only, best of luck to ya, but I am now ONLY going to use my ol Netbook (or x86 virsion of Windows) to ODIN my phone.
Never Stop Wanting More from your devices.
Im using 64 windows OS and i don't have a problem. If your device is not recognize by your PC just reinstall the samsung drivers and you are good to go.
Sometimes you have to go into the safe mode options and disable driver enforcement policy. Then it will work.

RSD-Lite problem

Hey All I have a problem with my RSD-Lite because every time Iwant to select the sbf-file it just doesn't show the File Properties.
Help Please!
I don't think this is the correct section to post about this topic but anyways, if this is your first time trying RSDLite:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-My3iODE208
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA67WaBfGWQ
Else, make sure
1. You have latest version of RSD-Lite
2. You have an original, unmodified, regional SBF for your device (and that is not corrupt).
3. Try running as administrator if these didn't work.
It is not the first time to flash my Phone with RSD-Lite , but it just stopped working from one day to another I already reinstalled my Windows 7 but still didn't work and it doesn't help to run it as administrator
What about re-downloading your SBF?
doesn't work
Try diffrent computer

I've also seen issues with running RSD on Windows 7 machines. I've tried everything to resolve (including reinstall of OS), but have given up and gone back to a old WinXP machine to do all my RSD. From what I can tell, Win 7 machines are hit or miss relative to RSD.
If that's the case then I must be very lucky because I have windows 7 and I almost always flashed without problems. Glad you could find a workaround.
OK I just pulled out my VERY old XP-Notebook and now everything works thanks!

[Q] Problem installing KIES on Win7 64bit

Anybody successfully install the latest KIES on their Win7 64 bit machine?
I saw another thread 2 years ago, but it has no solution to it...
Does anybody have a workaround or a way to get it install?
Mine failed when it try to register nkwab.dll, i think it was trying to use the 32bit regsrv32.exe to register the 64bit stuff... but can't really force the installer to do anything...
Tried to update to the latest 64bit java.
Tried to clean the registry.
Tried an older version of KIES.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Which version are you tying to Install ?
I have Successfully Installed Samsung Kies v2.5.3.13052_10 (on Win8 64bit & Win7 64bit) without any problem.
I think the Latest version is 2.60.13064_2
Not tried that one yet
Uninstall your Current version of Java & Kies
Reboot your System
Just download and Install Latest version of Java
Java 7 Update 25 (64bit) from LINK
Then Reboot your system
And then Download Latest Version Of Kies From LINK
And Install it..
Thats all...

I was trying the latest version on Samsung website.
But anyhow, F that $hit. I tried everything. I end up just installing the Samsung driver package myself, then hook it up with Odin. Kies is a total fail. Wasted me a day on it.
This is what I've tried and done before:
Uninstall and install Kies
Uninstall and install Java (64 bit)
Ran CCleaner
Reboot, and deleted the Samsung folder
Ran CCleaner again
Tried a couple of different version of Kies
Bottomline, Kies doesn't work with 64bits Windows 7, judging by the error message, Kies was trying to run the 32bit regsvr32.exe to register some dll, but it should've ran the 64bit version of regsvr32.exe under Windows/system instead.
I got my stuff working now, go here:
http://www.modaco.com/topic/361286-...or-mobile-phones-15270-win-87xp-adb-fastboot/
Get the driver pack (you may want to google the latest driver pack instead)
Install the driver pack
Run Odin
:good:
That's a bit jumping to conclusions ? Just because it doesent work on your pc - you simply call that Kies doesent work on Win7x64 ? That's weird because i have it installed - and never had any issues with it ?

I had an older version of Kies Mini installed before for my old phone that worked too, and that was 2 years ago. But the new one doesn't work, in fact if you google it, tons of people are having issues with Windows 7 and 64 bit, and yet Samsung doesn't do anything to fix it. Is not my PC's issue because Kies installer was trying to register its dll and failed. The error message was saying that the application (Kies) was performing wrong operation. Like i explained before, I suspect Kies installer is calling the wrong command to register its dll.
Anyhow, Kies is not needed now. I never liked Kies anyway, especially the new one, it looks like iTune...
I don't have any problems with Kies and Win 7 64 bit as well. Currently running 2.60.13064_2 version.
In fact I have Kies installed on my PC December last year without any issues. It is weird that some of people do have installation or stability problems with it when others don't. It's gotta be something not 100% kosher with the application.
Use of Kies on XDA should receive a lifetime ban .

[Q][RECOVERY] THL W8 8GB ClockworkMod

Hi, I decided to put GravityMod 2 on my thl w8 8gb. So I tried ClockworkMod first, for backup reasons following this guide. I get stuck at step 8, where i click download and connect the phone. Nothing happens the Flash tool says searching and the phone just starts charging. So what am I doing wrong?
(I didn't post a reply in the thread, cuz I can't I'm a newbie).
Any help is appreciated hanks
EDIT:
I use win 8. And that could be the problem, because maybe the drivers don't get installed properly or something.
I installed Win xp on a virtual machine and tried from there but no dice. I'll try with a standalone xp and post here if it fixed the problem.

Flashtool not opening.

Running Windows 10 64x. Flashtool won't open.
Installed the latest version. Both 32x & 64x won't open. I get a loading icon over my mouse and nothing. Compatibility mode isn't working. Installed all drivers, not sure what's wrong with it.
How can I get this working?
And how can I uninstall all the drivers I won't be needing?
what about windows 7. flash tool works good for me on windows 7. now if don't have a PC with windows 7 then look on instructions on how to use flash tool with windows 8/10. why not dual OS 7 & 10?

For me, it works fine with Windows 10. I installed the same version which I had used in Windows 8.1. Are you sure you are using the same tool which you had used previously (in Window 7 or 8) ?

I don't have space to boot a dual OS, and don't have access to a machine with Windows 7 unfortunately.

Last time I used Flashtool was around 4-6 months ago.
I'll try a couple of different versions, and hopefully one of them works.
well I hope you can make it work. I always have dual OS just in case the new OS is incompatible with old stuff?
flashtool start - stop in W10

You started flashtool and closed it. It is still active in the background.
start task manager (CTRL-SHIFT-ESC)
you will see flashtool in the list. Right click on it and close task.
then you can start flashtool again.
Try right-clicking on Flashtool then go to Properties>Compatibility>Run in Compatibility Mode, and then select one of the older OS and see if that works. Also try running as Administrator mode.

Do you know how I can do this on a Mac? Flashtool does not show up in the Force Quit window, and only grayed out in the Energy tab of the Activity Monitor.
I'd also like to add that I have rebooted my computer twice and the problem has persisted. I originally installed v0.9.19.8 which opened fine. Then I learned that I needed the previous version, so I downloaded that. When I tried to open it, it simply did not do anything. Now, neither version will open.
Upon further inspection, I've noticed in the Activity Monitor that FlashTool does open briefly after I click Open, but closes automatically. The UI never shows up. Any suggestions?
I'm having the same problem
Same problem, how to solve this issue?
