Hello,
As in title, X10 is not detected in Windows while holding Back button when plug-ing in the cable contected to computer.
How can I install ADB drivers to use flashtool if the phone is not detected this way ?
Update:
I was using USB ports from front panel of the case, when I used an USB panel from the back, directly from motherboard it worked.
Why is that ? Does motherboard has some issues ? Does case usb controller have issues ?
Thanks
Make sure you dont have your phone connected to pc when installing the drivers.

have you tried to install pc companion thru Sony Ericsson web site? do that first, it will install needed usb drivers for our phone.
@ necrohades: thanks for your suggest but unlucky i tried. "No phone conected". Is the hardware broken ?
Since you already tried 3 pc. Why not try to change your USB cable then?
i tried e71's usb cable but PC still not recognized.
Might be you need to use generic ADB driver for your phone. USB device not recognized means:
1. USB port is not strongly powered (the front panel USB usually aren't strong in current). Try rear panel USB.
2. ADB (or to be more exact, SE driver for phone) is not installed. Try install generic ADB from Google Android SDK page.
Hello guys, I recently bought an Atrix 4G from UK. The problem is that when I connect it with USB cable with PC (Windows 7 32bit) the PC recognize that the phone is connected but nothing appears on the notification bar on the phone. First tried with original FW 2.2.2 orange, after that rooted, unlocked the bootloader and installed CM7 but it is the same thing with it. I installed the latest USB drivers using motorola driver installing program from the official site, tried with other cable but nothing. RSD lite recognize it if this will help.. Does anyone know how to fix this issue.

Question for you.... do you have an micro sd card in the atrix? That could be an issue. Also, you can look at your computer's usb settings to see if your phone can be forced into usb mode that way. Just giving some ideas.
Yes, I have SD card, tried without it but the same thing - no notification on the phone and nothing happen on the PC except the sound of connecting a USB device. How can I force it in USB mode?

Try looking in settings of the computer for USB drives.
That's when I start exploring a bit in that area when stuff doesn't connect to my laptop.

Didn't find this function. Anyway the point is that the computer recognizes the phone but the phone does not show anything in the notification bar.
I just solved the problem :
1 - Turn off the phone.
2 - Turn on while holding volume up (RSD protocol mode)
3 - Connect the phone with USB cable to the PC, wait for windows to install the drivers, and disconnect.
4 - Restart the phone, and before connecting to the PC type in the dial box #5.
5 - Connect it with the USB cable.
I saw this advice from other forum.
I know it sounds stupid but this worked for me. Thanks anyway for the separated time.
Thank you
your advice saved my life
Lost usb connection with my laptop and home pc 3 days ago
Tried everithing you know what I mean
Most advices are for babies in kindergarten:
- bad usb cable
- wrong usb port
- usb debugging
- drivers
BS!
#5 really works / you need actually dial #5 with your phone app and then quick connect cable
I had the same problem ... I had to send it to motorola for warranty and they changed my mainboard!

try the usb ports in the back of the pc with the "original usb cable for the atrix
also if your rooted download a teathering app called pda.net install it on your phone and pc it will provide proper drivers for the atrix
at&t atrix's had to do this when we were on 2.2 and it sure does work!
Thanks!
Thank you for this! Dialing #5 made the trick!

Hello, I can not enter fastboot (or flashboot) mode on Xperia U, I want to unlock bootloader, I got unlock code from sonymobile website, I am following instructions , but I can not get in fastbot mode anyway,
When I turn of the phone, and press volume up and power button simultaneously while plugging phone to laptop, in device manager new unknown fastboot device apair, but for few seconds, I can ot install android_winusb.inf either, it says, that windows could not find any drivers.
Anyway, after few seconds unknown device disrepair and phone goes to charging.
Android version 2.3.7
windows version win7 ultimate sp1 64 bit (may be this is the problem?)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...sible+solution+for+fastboot-windows7+problems
I Installed flashtool and flashtool drivers for it and finally entered in fastboot mode
Problem is solved
Funny thing is, that it still not works with Sony's original micro USB cable, but works perfectly with Samsung's cable
Windows treats every USB port independently. So windows has to "install" the driver again for every new USB port used. If you connect the Sony USB cable to the port the Samsung is currently connected to it should also work for the Sony cable.

If the PC is Windows 7 or 8 you should see a USB connection.
Any USB 2.0 MicroUSB data cable should work.
When you plug the USB data cable into the PC and the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10i phone, do you get an LED light indicating the phone is being charged(powered) via the USB port? You should see an LED power light.
On the phone you can enable USB debugging ( Settings ► Applications ► Development )
This won't 'enable' the connection but it does:
a) Provide an advance software connection between PC and phone for software updates and etc.
b) Displays a little Android icon on the phone to show something is connected.
When the phone is connected in USB data mode, you should see a new drive appear on the PC.
These are just very basic things but just covering them as we progress through to a solution.
PC Companion is a good app to start with to restore the phone back to stock firmware.
Another Sony Application is Sony [Ericsson] Update Service(SEUS) Sony Update Service
Sony Update Service just focuses on the firmware update and does not have the PC suite and Tools of the extended PC Companion application.
SEUS may provide the 'kick' the PC needs to request access to look for SEMC USB drivers to establish phone/PC connection.
There is also Flashtool.
This will still need the PC to provide USB drivers, which is should prompt for, but could require manual driver configuration.
In the Flashtool folder there is a driver install app that prompts for drivers of a given phone, but this is not always a 100% sure fire solution.
So, I'd check using SEUS to start with and see if things improve.
Thanks mate.
I did SEUS and it said the phone was up to date.
I tried again to use Sony pc companion.
I get to the part where it says drop down the menu and tap usb then mount.
The phone does not do that.
When I drop down the menu all I get is usb debugging.
When I plug into pc via usb lead I see an icon which says cd drive I but I can not open the drive.
