the actual flash process does not require usb debugging on, as long as the phone enters flashmode(hold back and then insert usb cable) the flash shud work, when the phone turns on and has been setup then u shud do as flashtool says and tick usb debugging on
so just to reiterate, open flashtool, press flash select ur desired firmware, press flash, flashtool prompts u to enter flashmode(hold back button then insert usb), flash will automatically begin, once flash is complete unplug usb turn phone on, wait till its booted up and gone thru setup NOW u can selct usb debugging and unknown sources
Hi,
i have the same problem here, it's been a week since i started trying to flash this bloody X10a. Still no success, i can't even turn it on! Everytime i try flashing, i get this:
20/006/2011 16:06:55 - ERROR - (X10flash.java:260) - Error flashing. Aborted
20/006/2011 16:06:55 - INFO - (FlasherGUI.java:826) - Now unplug the device and power it on
20/006/2011 16:06:55 - INFO - (FlasherGUI.java:827) - Then go to application settings
20/006/2011 16:06:55 - INFO - (FlasherGUI.java:828) - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
So, my question is: Is it possible to turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging with a phone that won't do anything else than get into flashmode after 20-30 minutes of USB Charging and back button holding. The phone won't charge the battery either.

I tried PC Companion and SEUS, i tried to do it with another computer but still..!
i am now trying yo do it under Ubuntu, wish me luck..
PC companion is only solution guys,connect ur phone and repair..
Hi all... i got my V for a month and now it is not charging anymore. neither from the ac adapter nor my computer usb..and my computer couldnt detect my phone is plug to the USB port....just nothing pops out. The debugging mode status icon, and the storage icon is not shown on my phone.
basically... i tried everything i found on Google...
reboot my phone, pop out the battery, change cable[from other optimus V], changed battery, different ports on my computer, different computer, different AC adapter, different SD card, format my SD card, factory reset, and the last thing i tried is to rooted my phone and flash with a I.H.O CM7.1 ROM.
no hope at all; however, when i plugged to the usb port or the ac adapter, then i take out the battery.. the phone does power up and say required battery....
so, if anyone had this problem before and solved it.. please help me out. between, i cant return the phone anymore.. it is over a month.
forgot to mention... it is the second time this charging issue happened. the first time, it fixed itself after i plugged into the PC, windows recognized it, and installed the drivers. [well, i already installed the driver before this happened, because i was doing some coding and debugging]
this time.... windows is doing nothing, no message pop out, no new driver found.. just nothing. and my phone doesn't shows the debugging icon on the status bar even thought i ticked the debugged mode On, and connected to the usb.
sorry for my bad grammar =[
maybe see if your pc recognizes it while rebooted into recovery.
you could also try removing all the lg and Android drivers in device manager (select show hidden devices to get at them) and then plugging the phone into the pc again.
or use a Ubuntu "live cd" to check the connectability... micro$oftware is uppity, my kid's windoze computer doesn't like my v, although it used to see it fine.
I've also read that toggling debugging, disconnecting and reconnecting the cable, then toggling usb debugging again can help.
also, froyo roms are supposed to go to a charge mode when turned off but still plugged in.
My Xperia P just won't connect with PC, it just behaves like its on wall charger when I connect the cable,
no notification about storage mount, not even a sign of phone connected to PC. Neither on Phone or PC.
No driver install on PC, no notifications about device connected. Not a single error notification on PC. Even cant find phone in device manager.
PC companion cant find the phone, even flashtool cant find the phone, I cant get into fastboot mode too (installed flashtool drivers).
Tried every driver, cable, usb hubs, other PC, Windows 8, 7... nothing.
USB Debug is ticked in phone, PC Companion install too (still didnt start), tried hard reset too.
Its same problem as here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837977
Details about phone:
Xperia P
6.1.1B.1.54
Bootloader unlock possible but still cant get into fastboot so no way to do that.
Bought in Poland (T-Mobile PL branded, probably sim-locked?. But I'm using Slovak T-Mobile and it works)
Please help, I dont care about USB Storage now (I can get to it by Airdroid) but I want to root my phone and Im not able to do it beacause of this.
Try unticking "Enable USB Debugging" and then connect your phone to your PC. With PC companion installed your phone should normally be recognised by Windows.

Install XP drivers from Flashtool. Also install fastboot drivers from flashtool.
Here's the steps:
1.) Open Flashtool
2.) Open Fastbootmode in FLASHTOOL, (from the thunder icon)
3.) Connect your device in fastboot mode
THIS STEPS SHOULD BE DONE FAST
4.) After connecting your device, select Reboot into fastboot mode (via Fastboot) from the Fastboot Toolbox, (right side)
5.) Congrats, you are now in fastboot, flash any kernel you want with autoroots.

i had the same problem... when i try to connect it says no device detect. i was using go launcher but when i used the original xperia launcher and closed the go launcher.. the pc companion detected my phone.. not really sure how that worked.. but it did.. >____< it was hard to follow the technical solution in the internet.. so im glad my problem was simple as that.. just check if you had the original xperia settings.. and try to connect to pc.. hope it works for you too!

You should choose "Let me pick a list of device drivers from my computer" and find your phone driver that you installed before.

The port is where you plug the USB cable into. It's probably damaged.

Unfortunately the port is part of the main board and cannot be replaced
I've seen at least one forum member that reported to fix his port by pulling the contacts with a needle, though I would not recommend it at least untill you have confirmed this is in fact the problem, at service or lab/store.

My Phone is connected to pc.No driver installation what is the problem?
Hello,
I have an Xperia P and since yesterday I have been having the very same Problem!
I can connect the phone via USB with my computer but the only thing it would do is: CHARGE
no data connection via usb.
I tried everything i know, like rebooting, entering fast boot mode, installing Sony Companion, enabeling / disabeling usb-debugging, deleteing old junk-data to decrease the amount of elemtents on sd-card... but nothing happens. neither windows nor ubuntu-mint will recognize my phone except from charging.
has anyone of you found a fix for the problem?
i run: nemesis kernel v.6.3 and Honami MoonWalker HD V6 (but i think its not a problem of kernel / ROM because i've been using this combination for a while now and it always worked!)

What exactly do you mean?
Do you want to know how I installed it on the phone? Then you should look for some tutorials, there are plenty.
Or do you want to know if it is actually working? I can tell you, it is, don't know why you wanna get a video or screenshot, because its actually not really realated to the thread's topic

same thing happening with my Xperia S :crying::crying:
if u find any solution plz tell me
Any news about this problem? Im facing exactly the same problem.
The phone works, but no USB connection. I cant enter in fastboot, nor flashmode, or whatever.
Tried all trick described in XDA, (rubber band, full charge, full discharge, etc...)
Factory reset doesn't help too.
update:
I have been using the phone without usb Connection ability for a while now and transferred data files via wifi-app on my computer when I needed to.
Eventually the phone died yesterday, because it is not charing anymore ;(
First it started like this:
I had the charger plugged in and it recognized it, showing the flash icon within the battery icon. But nothing actually happened, in fact, the battery kept draining.
So i tried differend chargers and cables but nothing worked. I wasnt able to prevent the phone's battery from completely depleting. Now, the phone won't turn on anymore and when I plug in the charger, the red Status LED will turn on for about 5 minutes, then it turns off again and nothing happens. I can repeat that but i figure, the battery is not getting any energy from the charger
Does anyone know how to fix this, yet?
The phone is slightly over 2 years old...
