Hey guys,
I have been looking evryone for this problem and cant find the solution, hell i even asked my Provider but they couldnt help me either.
In a nutshell my X10i (Android 1.6 Vodafone) Wont recognize my PC (windows Vista latest, 32 Bit).
I plug in the USB cable and it wont show a usb connected in the notification bar, however the notification light turns green.
When i try to connect my device to PC Companion it wont register the phone or locate its there.
I even tried to update the phone using SEUS but it wouldnt recognise it whilst in the "hold back" menu.
I have already tried these but they havent solved the problem;
-uninstall SEUS and PC Companion
-Reinstall SEUS and PC Companion
-change USB ports
-Change USB cable
-Checked and Unchecked USB Debugging
-change computer (still no help)
-I cant find anything in device manager
The problem seemed to have arisen when i reflashed the phone, using SEUS Repair, because i had forgotten the patern lock.
I really want to flash Official 2.1 or the AOSP rom!!!
Any solutions?
Thanks in Advance
EDIT: Everything else works fine in the phone

@OP
in short u are f****d.!
try rooting it with super one click or zroot(somethinng like that).
Yo.. let me explain something.
When i rooted and downgraded the kernel it used the old ADB drivers.
When i upgraded it required the new ADB drivers.
Maybe that is your issue.
flash the generic SE firmware with flashTool. It should work...
turn off phone - take out battery - press back key - insert usb - insert battery.
That should do the trick. Then Flashtool to stock
I probably have used this method 50 times the past 2 days trying to upgrade to GB. Always flashes ok but phone wont boot. Finally gave up and stayed with 2.1 and upgraded to MIUI. So it aint dead yet, just injured LOL
2 different computers won't recognize the phone, I can't flash with flashtool! It goes into flag mode but flashtooldoesnt recognize the phone. Somebody know how to manually install drivers?

Upload some pictures.
So apparently no one on here wants to help me unbrick my X10a for free so now I am going to offer money, no specific dollar amount until someone can get it working again, even if it's only for a short period of time. The link to my original thread is linked above, whoever gets it working can request the amount they think it was worth spending their time. Good luck, for both of us. I have seen several others with this same problem, if they would like to join in the bounty for us, and future bricks, feel free to leave a post of PM me.
I only skimmed over your last thread so let me ask a few questions.
Flashtool doesn't work at all?
So what version flashtool do you have and has it worked previously?
Did you unlock your bootloader?
When you connect to flashtool do you keep the back button held the WHOLE time?
EDIT:
Read your thread. Looking at the flashtool screenshot it looks very similar to an error i was having at one point. Even tough i had the drivers installed they didn't want to play nice. I downloaded Flashtool 0.2.9.1 and reinstalled drivers. When in flash mode i seemed to HAVE to hold the back button down the whole time.
I have tried it both ways, to hold it the entire time, or until I get the error, and let go as soon as it starts flashing. Both have the same end result of the aborting of the flash. Also, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers several times as well as used Gordon's reset usb ids everytime I try.

Are you sure you have a stable connection with your data cable?!! (USB port and cable work fine, not lose or something!!)
Question: The Green Led (the light that comes "on" while you're in flash mode) goes off while you are flashing?
Sorry all, lost my isp for a bit. Yeah, I'm sure about the USB connection. I have gone as far as to taping it down to make sure it doesn't move. lol. And when flashing, the light does stay on but there have been times where the light goes off half way through despite not being moved since it initialized connection.
What where you running?? Did you try seus???

Okay i had your error message too a few times here is what i did i re installed the x10 drivers it was included in flashtool then i flashed stock 2.1 it worked like a charm !

Try this:
1- uninstall pcc and seus
2- run some aplication to clean the registry of the computer.
3- install again pcc and seus
4- connect your phone and let PC to install the drivers automatically.
5- use flashtool to flash a firmware designed for you baseband. Try android 2.1 first to test it.
If it still doesn't work try to do all in a computer with another windows version. Sometimes Windows 7 give a little problem to install drivers.
One computer that has never been used for this is excellent because there is no conflicts between applications and drivers

Also turn off UAC (user access control).
Don't know if this will help too but have the latest version of Java installed.

Now no computer recognizes device (10 different systems with XP, Vista, 7)

already tried different versions of flashtool, tried all the drivers including gordon gate, android drivers, pcc and seus but device still not recognized
Now is my X10 bricked or what!

Reinstall Windows and then:
1. Download the latest PC Companion from SE site.
2. Install it on your PC then open the programm and choose the "update service" there.
3. Then you'll find there a phrase saying "repair phone".
4. Then only follow the instructions of PC Companion to repair your phone.
And ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS read FAQs, Guides, and Tutorials.
Format PC and install SEUS and PC Comp....
Disable UAC in windows 7
Restart PC
Follow procedure for flashing,with Flashtool 0.2.9.1...
Wait for drivers to be installed (must have internet connection)
Use Stock 2.1 Firmware file first!
Run it As Administrator
Change USB Cable, take shorter one and plug in in the back of PC (directly on motherboard)...
I had already tried pcc but I tried again as you said.
Formatted new PC with windows 7, turned UAC off.
Downloaded new pcc and ran the program.
After hitting the update link it says to connect the usb cable but after connecting usb cable it does not install the drivers. It says to disconnect and reconnect if nothing happens for 30 seconds so I did that and upon connecting usb cable it says unable to connect to the phone. I think the phone repair link is after the phone is connected to pcc but I can't connect to pcc.
And how do I connect the usb cable directly to the motherboard? Do you mean to open my desktop cabinet and locate the usb port on the motherboard, disconnect the already connected back and frontpanel usb headers and then connect the usb cable to the usb header on the motherboard?
Also tried flashtool 0.2.9.1 but no success, keeps trying to connect but to no avail.
I tried SEUS awhile ago, it's in the original post. I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them several times as well as uninstalling Windows drivers and only using Gordon's drivers and that did not work. I taped the back button down on the device but that still did not work. I'm at a loss...
About installing the drivers, how about this:
Download the standalone drivers: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=U2PY6QOR and read these instructions provided from SE Support:
First, it is important to install drivers properly.
Start with the SEMC drivers.
When X10 is connected to the computer you should use ADB for X10 not ADB that comes with Googles SDK since it is not compatible with X10, yet. Use ADB for X10 included in attatchment, and write adb devices.
If you get something like CBxxxxxxxx then ADB works with X10. To kill old ADB server you can use adb kill-server command.
Good luck
(Note: i found this info over the net, it's kinda old, May 2010 but may works, who knows!)
Another option to install the drivers is to download and install this software: http://www.mediafire.com/?pq0idzzyasmzui0 This is the Unlock Software provided from cellunlocker.net which i used to unlock my X10, it has the option to install the drivers for you on the software folders (in windows start menu).
Try again after installing these, specially the second option (Unlock Client), who knows, maybe you'll get lucky!
Hope this helps!
How bout this. Start fresh from another PC.
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
I have updated everything, I have actually started fresh from my Laptop to see if it had something to do with my home PC but it does the same thing. As far as ADB goes, you cannot access ADB if the phone is net set to debugging mode, adb will not recognize the phone, even in flash mode.
Will you can try this it has worked for a few others and if it does work JUST the thanks button is good for me. And just Be Patient go slow and it will get fixed if it's not already. And after you get it working then you can update too what ever Rom you wont.
Have Fun

You mean eclair, not froyo
I think you have to go into update phone or something in pc companion then do it from there, it doesn't matter if it recognizes the phone.
If that fails you'll have to use SEUS or flashtool, I'll try finding the files for you
I haven't used PC Companion in a while so I can't give you much advice

No luck in finding the files so far but you could follow the guide here and make your own ftf file specific to your operator and country - that will work best aside from PC Companion
