[Q] My cellphone cant connect my PC via USB - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hey,
I am having a problem with my new Xperia X10 Mini Pro since I updated it to Android 2.1. Basically the problem is that Windows tells me that it cant be recognized, even if it was installed and worked properlly while being with 1.6. And the weirderst part is...sometimes it connects but rapidly disconnects without the option of mounting it. So:
1. It may be the cable. Weird because it have less than a week.
2. It may be the cellphone itself. Same as above.
3. It may be Android 2.1 messing up with the hardware. Possibly but I cant tell because its impossible to restore it as I cant connect it.
Please keep in mind that I havent rooted it or anything, it just stoped working.
Thanks.

Its a bug. Connect using charge phone first and then bring down the stausbar and chose mount.

x10 not recognised via usb :S

Hi
My x10 will not be recognised by usb, ive tried booting it into flash mode and when its connected via usb it will charge but the menu doesnt pop up and nothing appears in the notifications bar. This happend when i tried to unroot my phone through the one click app and re root it. I factory reset the phone and i still have the problem so im stuck on what to do :S
Have you tried restarting your pc?
ah it seems my laptop didnt like both my portable mouse and my phone connected at the same time even though ive had a proper microsoft desktop set connected at the same time before :S Also is there a decrypted 2.1 ROM for the uk?
Did you check your USB cable? maybe it's broken? -.^ test it in another computer, if it recognize is OK, if not send your x10 to assistance
Its recognised via usb and i've managed to change it to global 2.1. However when i rooted it through oneclick and applied the speed fix, it broke root so now it says i've (shell) rooted my phone on oneclick but superuser doesn't work as in it wont pop up at all its quite annoying

looks like the alternate root method worked for me so now i have a faster global 2.1 and i have root

[Q] I bricked my phone... stupidly...

Hey guys, in need of urgent help.
Last night i went and installed xrecovery onto my x10. This was to allow me getting free x10 2.2.1 which i did, and i got the hotfix's and they also where fine
But heres the problem...
Didnt know if Darkys Gingerbread 2.3.1 would work for me, but i thought it would b as simple as just reinstalling/unzip the freex10 2.2.1 via xrecovery if my phone wouldnt boot. I was wrong!!!
My phones current state is sitting at the main Sony Ericsson Logo on start up. I have tried to put the phone into safe mode. Connected to the PC and no light appears. The PC sees there is a phone connected but the SD card is not seen. i have a dongle which my SD card plugs into, but i just need help...
Question - What can i do to resolve this stupidity and get my phone working properly again?
Cheers,
Jonny
I havent installed what you have but i have that happen to me before where it just hangs on the se logo
was very frustrating
all i done was use se update service software to basically reinstall the se 2.1
version...
so if everything else failed, give that a shot. it worked for me

Sorry, i should have said that my PC sees the phone but i cant connect to the pc because i need to use the notification bar/connect USB...which i can't get to.. am i doing something wrong?
make sure you download Sony Ericson Update Service for your pc
to connect to that, you should switch your phone off, then hold in the back button while you plug the usb into ur phone...
the software shows you how to do this.
My phone didn't go past the se logo, and didnt want to connect either... but it connected to the update service which let me reinstall the original 2.1
This worked thanks a bunch!!
As per my understanding, we cannot brick the phone till the boot loader is cracked. You mess anything with the phone when flashing or when using xRecovery incorrectly, all you need to do is connect the phone in flash mode to your PC and update using Sony Ericsson Update Service or PC Companion and you will get the stock SE Rom back, and you will be ready to mess it up again

[Q]X10i Broken USB port, how to update to 2.1

Hi there, got xperia with broken? USB port - when plugged in to charger it charges (but doesn't show it's charging), when pluggen in to PC nothing happens (there must be a popup or notification in notification bar like i have on x8?)
the phone is really great, but it has only droid 1.6.
So is there any possibility to run update to at least 2.1 only from SD? not using the USB connection?
I have tried installing zdzihu's tool, but the phone says "cannot install application xRecovery Installer on this phone". Root made by Universal Androot and BusyBox installed in /system/bin/.
Hi,
you can do this in 2 ways.
1:
Use SEUS. Download the New 2.1. Version. Turn your Phone off. Flash your Phone with SEUS
2:
Use Flashtool and flash a custum or genric ROM

I had the same problem. I used the 2nd way
Here a guide how to flash your Phone:

really great, but PC doesn't find xperia when plugged in... so it didn't solve my problem.
use in settings the ota with wifi to update the Phone.
If the micrusb is not working, you should get that fixed 1st.
With phone rooted, busybox installed use xrecovery.apk from the official thread to install it.
Choose a nice firmware to install.

Shows network error (but browser and market normally operate), will try at home with other internet connection.
Phone has been sent to the service and they returned it cancelling guarantee.
all apps downloaded from official threads.
Heh
Cześć katorznik.
Got the same problem yesterday, bought on allegro like a new. I used it for 4 months, everything was perfect. Suddenly USB stopped working. It charges via charger but extremely slowly, via PC nothing happens. The biggest crap I have ever seen in a cell phone that class. :/ Of course I don't have warranty. Did they (service) explained why they cancelled your waranty? Did it happended suddenly or it was already in that condition when you received it? Have you dropped it on the ground etc? Any reasonable explanation?
It is propably impossible to update ypur phone OS without working USB transmission. Phone must be run into service mode first, than you can update basband (from what I know and I think I know much, this can be done only by USB cable) required for newer roms. After that and phone being rooted you can flash newer roms directly from SD. I'm "lucky" 'couse I managed to update baseband to .1.54 and Froyo just before that crap stopped working. Ehhhh.....
It's a physical damage, u r f****d..

[Q] USB connection problem (on 2.3.5 android version)

I flashed a custom rom a couple of months back. That rom was android version 2.3.5.
Now when I try and connect my phone to my pc using the standard usb cable, it only charges but no connection.
I did some reading before I posted and found several methods to try out
1.Use kies, download drivers
2.Enable USB Debugging mode
3.Go to settings-wireless and network-usb utilities and connect it through there.
None of the methods mentioned above worked.
So my questions to you guys are
1. Does this problem have to do with the custom rom?
2. Can I degrade to the stock rom without the use of an USB cable?
2b Can I update to another custom rom (because the phone charges when it is connected to the pc, even though I cant see it on "my computer", it should still be considered as connected?) ?
3. Which is the best custom rom out right now (Speed and performance wise)
*Side note - I know people prefer different custom roms based on their taste, but I really want to think what you guys think about which one I should upgrade to!!! I also might want to overclock to 1.6 and root the phone in the coming week if I can solve my usb problem!
Have you tried using SwiFTP app on your phone and Filezilla on your pc, then you can transfer files wirelessly

Yes I have but it wasn't what I was looking for. My phone randomly gets usb connected and starts charging without the cable being connected???
I went to the retail store I bought it from and he said you should degrade your firmware and see if the problem goes away, if it doesnt we send it in for repair.
But how can I do that if my usb only charges when I connect to the pc?
There is a Mobile Odin apk. Perhaps you could install that then flash stock firmware with it. You would have to get the .tar onto your phone though.
Unfortunately, if I´m not wrong your trobule seems to be a hardward issue.
My cell phone began a couple of weeks ago with the same problem, and it became even rather serious. Some days ago it didn´t charged if I connected the charger when it was on. I should switch it off and then connect the charger, having done this, the cell rebooted by itsefl and then began charging.
But, just seeking and testing I bought a "charger block replacement" in ebay and replaced it by myself. It is not complex to do it on your own... today I am happyy.. cause I fixed it..
If your problem continue.. I hope you will remember my words!

[Q] Update problem on Xperia X10i

Hi guys, i'm new around here.
I got an xperia x10i which i can't update it to the last version of android. Curently i'm using the 2.1 update1 version.
The problem is that i can't connect it on my PC to update it, i got a problem with my usb connection and my pc can't recognise the phone so no possible update.
I wonder if is any other way to update the android without a direct connection to pc through a cable. Something through a microSD or anything....
Can you guys give a little help or is not possible without a pc connection?
Have a nice day,
AlexandersonM
Unless you repair your usb connection or you find a way to unlock your phone via a phone app, it wouldn't be possible. Once unlocked there are some options (like installing xrecovery) .
