PC does not recognize Xperia S - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hey Guys,
I have a problem with my Xperia S.
When I connect it via USB to the Pc, I can hear the windows-sound, that a new device is connected and the phone charges, but in the explorer I only see a removavle media, wich appears to be empty, when I click on it.
I`m currently on CM9 and I even tried with activated Debugging-Mode.
Thanks for your help.

Check the drivers of your computer.
Install pc companion and the divers from flashtool and it should solve your prob.

Yes, it is the fricking generic XP prompt telling you that it needs the fricking drivers.

Hi fiends, I'm facing a serious problem with my USB tethering. The connection is getting lost frequently even though the symbol for the usb tethering still remains. To regain my connection, I have to first uncheck (OFF) and then check (ON) the tethering option.
It is not a fault of the service provider because I checked it with my w810i.
I am using 2.2.2 v10d and my pc is running on win XP.
Is that XP's problem or is it my phone's firmware's problem or some other problem ..???????
Pleaseee HELPPP!!!!

Synchronisation with computer
Keep the data in your phone in sync with your computer. Connect your phone to a computer and use a synchronisation software.

Ubuntu usb connection
I tried to connect my XPS to Ubuntu via USB for about 3 hours now. One thing that i learned, is that MTP and Linux is a very bad combination that should be avoided.
So is there a way to install the MSC transfer protocol to a rooted XPS? That would make everything alot easyer.

[Q] Can we access internal storage?

Can we access internal storage? And if so how? Can we add/delete files?
Yea. Doesn't give option to storage when USB connects. Was just asking the same thing.

Select "Media Sync" - It uses MTP and the device will show up as a separate drive in Windows Explorer.

My home PC is WinXP and MTP no-workee. I installed Airdroid and it works great. It's a decent workaround.

I have the SDK on all my machines at home and work just so I can do stuff via ADB. I'm not a developer or anything, just comfortable with cl interface from the old DOS days. It didn't occur to me but that could be why MTP works on my Win7 box. I honestly don't know enough to answer that.

[Q] USB problem

Whenever I connect my device to PC it is not recognized and I have to try like 50 times with different USB ports on my PC so that it gets connected. Please help me with this problem
Not connected as in, you cant access the storage or PC Companion wont recognize the phone ?
Check the cord with another phone

Yea thats the exact problem..... the storage is shown but when i try to copy something it just dont respond...... where as in pc companion it just take forever to just recognize.....
Sent from my Google Nexus using xda app-developers app
I was going to say that because of the Custom rom, PC Companion wont detect it.. But if copying doesnt work, not sure.. Try flashing a Stock FTF and see if there's any difference. Small possibility only of it being related to rom, but why risk it ?
When with stock also had the same problem............ changed the USB cable also......... but now use.............

Is there any way I could get data off it, it still powers up but drivers are not recognized on PC, tried kies, mobiledit but usb device is not recognized. Think Bluetooth and wifi are also switched off.
Anything else I can try or is it a lost cause?

I can now see the phone in Kies but it is locked due to a password needed on the device, no screen means I cant put in the password arrgggghhhh!!!
You can try to install custom recovery and then mount it to your pc if the display is not broken or you can look at the picture could be risky cause you maybwipe all data. Or you need to replace digitizer and the display

At least I now have a spare battery for mine.
