Windows XP not detecting my SXS! - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I tried to connect my SXS to my dad's windows XP desktop but the PC Suite is not detecting it. When I connect the mobile the PC Suite says 'searching phone' for a second and then says 'no phone detected'. And I'm not able to use tethering option too. BTW I am able to access my internal storage via 'SDcard mounter' app.
When I connect the mobile the PC is making a sound confirming that a device is connected during which pc suite says 'searching phone' but after two or three seconds the PC is making the same sound repeatedly and at a faster rate and then the PC Suite says 'no phone detected'. Frankly I don't understand why it's happening like this.
BTW the mobile works fine with my windows 7 laptop.
Any help would be grateful. Thanking you in advance.

You have to download xperia s signed driver for windows xp from sony.
Also you have to update windows media player to lstest one possible you can.
Newer better...
That fixed my problems.

Thank you for the reply.
I downloaded the drivers from this site.
I thought that it would be a .exe file but its not. So please help me regarding how exactly I should use the drivers after I download them.
Right now am trying to update my WMPlayer.

Extract it to desktop, connect your phone and when pc says that drivers not found click advance and select path where you extract the drivers, wait couple of minutes and drivers will be setup.
I update wm player to 11.
If you need help contact me over PM.

Not that I'm aware of. Try getting in touch with Samsung and asking them. The only other alternative is to do a before and after snapshot of your registry and see what gets installed when you install the drivers using Kies.
USB drivers application in the Kies program folder in win 7 just copy it .

[Q] xperia s adb driver

Hi all,
Iam using win7 64-bit, have already enabled usb debugging. Device manager can only recognise my xs as portable device, but not android devices, and there's no other new devices. I ran 'adb devices' in adb.exe, but nth shows up.
I checked in the .inf i used and found the entry for sony ericsson.
Am i missing any driver? Any help will be much appreciated. Thx in advance.

Please close the topic.. thx
Hey, I'm having this issue, what was the solution.
I have USB debugging enabled, connecting over usb to windows vista.
It just shows my Xperia S as a portable device but I can't see it when I run adb devices.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers so I'm a bit lost. All my other Android devices connect fine.

That's not the problem. I've PC Companion installed ok. It's in "USB DEBUG" mode only the problem. In "adb devices" none appears...
I had the same problem, still do but only with windows vista laptop.
Try manually installing the drivers. Device manager> Portable devices>XPERIA Device>right click to properties>update>let me pick from the listed devices>USB Composite device>next hope this works! else try locating the inf file and selecting it in THE BRowser.

stock jellybean and computer conectivity question

i have installed the stock jellybean rom from here but since doing so i have noticed that when i connect my phone to the computer via usb cable my computer does not bring up the 'autoplay' options allowing me to access the phones storage and be able to drag and drop files to the phone etc.
I have tried installing kies so i can transfer files this way (pictures/videoe etc) but the computer dose not seem to see the phone?
any ideas
thanks
Phone should be in Windows explorer .

sorry can you explain more what you mean by this?
i am using windows vista on my computer, are you saying there is another way of detecting my phone when it is connected to the computer via the usb?
when i click on 'start' then 'my computer' i can see the drives on the computer etc but no phone attatched where i would normally see it.
Then that usually means you have no USB drivers installed for the phone .
jje
Try reinstall usb driver for vista version.
Jellybean is still under beta. Bugs are inevitable.

Drivers were installed when adb was installed, also when toolkit was installed.

Windows XP can not install usb drivers.

Hi, I am using windows xp 32 bit sp3.(work pc) I can not get any of the usb drivers to install. I have used the drivers I downloaded from the tool kit 5.0 still no good.
Messege I get is phone has been used before and needs to be ejected and pc rebooted.
I have tried every way I know to do what messege says.My problem is the phone is seen as a digital camera. This is not helping matters.
I can only connect via the camera and take pictures from phone to pc. Thats all.
Any ideas? ( I am in UK)
Install KIES that install the drivers .
jje
Does a USB icon appear on your phone at the top left of the screen when you plug into USB? If so, drag down the notification bar. Does it say "Connected as a camera"? If so, tap that and select "Media device (MTP)"
http://db.tt/bcP5fVPt or go their, download the windows drivers, and run....simples
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I have that driver. with out phone connected and everything uninstalled through device manager The drivers will not go in.
Messege is still either phone is or has been used and needs to be ejected then pc rebooted before trying install again.
None of this works.
I have tried using debug mode..phone came up in Device manager but with yellow question marks..no drivers could be found.
I am on a work pc with no admin priv.
I have connected phone in MTP mode. PC still sees a digital camera.
My work mate next to me has identical pc...When I plug S3 in to his pc I can connect to pc correctly It sees phone as portable device.
I looked at the drivers via device manager. My set of drives that don't work are..
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\usbscan.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\ptpusb.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\ptpusd.dll THESE DO NOT CONNECT PHONE CORRECTLY
the pc that does connect correctly use...
C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\wpdusb.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\wudfrd.sys THESE CONNECT CORRECTLY
How do I remove all trace of incorrect drivers and put correct ones in.
Kies does not allow my old S2 or my S3 to connect.
can not connect to microsoft update via works pc either.
I've finally fixed my usb problem on a WinXP pc by updating Windows Media Player (?!!). I was on version 9 and updated to 11. Then i've reinstalled the Samsung USB Drivers and there, it magically works. You won't probably like me, need of WMP 11 but it was the only solution for me. Hope this will work for you too. I guess, the update to WMP 11 has cleaned up and installed some required libs for the drivers, who knows.
Try to disable the usb debugging and connect GSII with the computer.
Some windows will pop up to alert you some drivers are missing.
Let the computer install drivers(just use automatic).
Done.

I think it is clear the the OP had already tried your suggestion many times, and it didn't work. I have the same problem, and have resorting to using a second PC to load files, or removing the SD card and plugging it into a separate SD card reader. I have done as you suggested many times. When I install the phone USB, it finds the USB device, selects the correct drivers, then spins for a long time and then fails.
I have not tried updating windows media player yet, will follow up with status after I do.

Thats a thought. I also might have some reminents left over from Samsung drivers. I might also try uninstalling media player completely and reinstalling.

I hope this attachment works for you.
Don't ask me how I found this or why it works....but I have 3 Xp machines and one of them worked fine after installing WMP11 but the other 2 were still not happy until I installed the attached Microsoft framework file. INSTANT success after that. Download it to your XP pc, unzip and install.
Report back please.

bizarre though this may sound, update to latest windows media player. mtp devices don't work in xp on older media player versions

thanks! :good:
thank you, Thank you, Thank You! to all the solution-contributors in this thread. Updating Microsoft's User-Mode Driver Framework (either via Windows Media Player, or the direct files) solved the maddening headaches of USB connectivity with my phone on XP.

Thanks for the upload!
When I updated my XP pc with WMP 11, it installed version1 of User-Mode Driver Framework; the current version for XP is v1.9. The only site I found that has the direct files is http://rghost.net/36571160. I have also attached the file here.

Windows8 Drivers

I am having problems using Galaxy S3 i9300 4.1.1 with Windows 8 RTM x64.
I have installed Kies latest (2.5.0.12094_28). And i can see device is connected and i can even take backups. But when i am trying to send mp3 files it is giving an error "File Transfer from PC to 'GT-I9300' has been interrupted"
Also when the device is connected to PC via USB, i can see the contents in Windows Explorer but if i try to delete something, or upload a document there it says i dont have permisson.
With the same phone and PC, in Windows7 or XP there is no problem.
I have tried severel options like, "USB Debugging Mode", reinstall drivers, remove ghost drivers etc.
It just never worked for Windows8.
Any ideas or solutions?
I can tell you only: get used to it...nobody likes windows 8 and most likely even big companies will most likely slack doing drivers, even those who doesnt will yake their yime to make win8 drivers-dont get me wrong, i love win8, im running it since consumer preview

I mess about with stuff saved on my microSD card and phone very regularly with both my Windows 8 notebook (Release Preview) and tablet (RTM), connected by USB. My notebook has the Kies software installed, whereas the tablet doesn't. I don't have the problems you speak of.
On my notebook's Device Manager, with my phone plugged in, I have a category 'SAMSUNG Android Phone' with 'SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface' beneath it. Do you have that? My version of the driver is 2.9.503.726, dated 27/07/2012. On a side note, I also have the category 'Modems' with 'SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem' beneath it.
Have you tried uninstalling the drivers, and letting Windows install suitable drivers for you?

Which version of kies are you using? Did you install the drivers seperately or using the ones that come with Kies?
Im also on legit W8 x64. No problems for me. I dont even have Kies. Lol

I also use 64x Win8, everything's fine. Try different drivers, maybe those from the S3 All In One Toolkit
Similar problem here, using a HP Elite book with Windows 8 (My Win7 machines and 10.7 Mac have no issues)
I am in the process of trying some drivers to see if they solve this problem.
Search for galaxy s3 toolkit andbinstall the drivers in that package they deffiniyely! My main build machine is runninh win8.1
