[Q] Flashtool not identify Xperia Sola MT27i - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello everyone,
I have one Sony Experia Sola MT27i whit Android 4.0.4, core version 3.0.8+, Compile version 6.1.1.B.54. I would like to upload the "Pepper" OS on it.
So i download the flashtool-0.9.10.1-windows (have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit all updates on it) and install it... then install the drives for Sola and Flashmode, Flashboot from driver directory, but an error appear "DPinst.exe does not execute on your current Operating System". I tray install them running install again in Compatible mode and no luck again. Then i found in the forum a nookcolor-easyADB installation for windows 7 32/64bit tray it -again noting and an exclamation mark in device manager is there like before. On phone i activate the USB debugger and allow Unknown source option, USB connection mode is MSC.
Were i do wrong- is flashtool the needed program for this version of Sola or i need other drivers
Any help would be appreciated! Thank you

Are u sure u r opening the 64bit of flashtool??

Yes, that's right. Can't install the drivers Flashmode, Flashboot from driver directory, an error appear "DPinst.exe does not execute on your current Operating System". Even i go C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Temp\Flashtool traying to run DPinst64.exe -same error?!

I've had the same issue on my Windows 8 laptop. The drivers installed successfully after disabling "Driver Signature Enforcement" on your Windows operating system. Reboot your PC and press F8. Then select " Disable Driver Signature Enforcement". Then install the unsigned driver.

ОК i managed to run all the stuff but on other PC.. now have other problem. I install CWM v6.0.1.2 (recovery) on phone going on whit steps are shown here:
sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/howto-install , but i download the update on External SD card FXP202-cm-9-20130111-unofficial-pepper.zip (not just the SD -internal), because don't have free memory on internal.. then i tray to run the zip file form the ext SD i see the file every think seems to look OK then a menu appear whit a column of NO answers and one YES then again 3 NO.. after check the YES its says that Finding update package... then E: Can't mount /external_SD/FXP202-cm-9-20130111-unofficial-pepper.zip
Installation aborted.
Any help would be appreciated!

Case can be close! I run all the stuff..

How can I change X10 design?

Hi and good morning.
I have seen on the thread, "post your X10 screen" or something like that. And I have seen some that have a different WiFi icon, battery in right corner. How do I change that? Is it custom ROMs or what?
Thanks for all help.

Hi.
See the tutorial link in my signature, it's really quite easy to do.
Do I have to start with ADB for noobs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 and install Droid Explorer?
And then "Three tutorials for modifying your x10 OS aesthetically" and then: "framework-res Icon Pack (Modding)"?
Thanks
EDIT: Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB. I have tried to download USBdeview and see if there is HTC Android, but there is not.
I have a Xperia X10i phone and the only thing that is listed is "Sony Ericsson sa0101 ADB Interface Driver" and "Sony Eri Memory Stick USB Device".
When I uninstall ADB Interface driver nothing happens. Just freeze for a couple of seconds but thats it.
Whats wrong?
Can someone help me?

It would be an idea to read the three tutorials yes and the packs are there for you to use when you've learned how to edit apks. If the adb driver is already installed I'm not sure why you're removing it, you need it to use adb.

HKC p771a 7 inch Tablet Root

I have used many different methods to root phones even a few tablets for friends. But I have bought a HKC 7 inch tab from walmart. Great starter tablet by the way. I have found no information what so ever on any forum about this model. It has decent processor power and runs rather smooth. Alas there is no way to root this thing to reach its full potential. I checked around on the net and found nothing, none of the one click apps work on this model. Adb does not recognize the tablet either. I've put in the tablet ID into the adb_usb.ini still no device found. I'm not looking for anyone to just hand me the root process on a silver plater, though that would be nice, but any help moving me in the right direction would be appreciated.
I rooted one of these for a friend at work,
sourceforge.net/projects/androidroot/ is the root that I got to work.
and I've attached the driver that the manufacturer provided me when I requested a driver for development purposes.View attachment Rockusb.rar
Here is how I got it rooted
1. Installed Java JDK and Android SDK.
2. downloaded and extracted Manufacturer driver from Rockusb.rar and right clicked on the .inf file and selected install.
3. Opened Android SDK manager, installed Android SDK for version of tablet, and SDK tools, and Google usb driver from extras.
4. Enabled usb debugging mode on the tablet, and enabled unsigned apps to be installed.
5. Connected the tablet via USB
6. when the tablet shows up in the device manager as P771A I selected to update the driver manually, and selected the google USB driver from the android SDK.
7. Downloaded and extracted the android root I listed above.
8. Run android root and when it says "press any key to continue" it is waiting until the device connects to the computer again, as it could be rebooting, and one time when the tablet reboots, there is no text, just a black screen, but it does eventually connect and you can continue.
Also. I extracted the root to my desktop. when I ran as admin, it did not work, because the files were not on the administrators desktop, only mine, so it might be a good idea to extract the root to C:\ drive, so if you need to use admin, it won't fail
hope this helps

when in doubt go back to the forums. I can not get the inf in the rockusb to install. "Installation for this file type not permited" . So I'm stuck, the program will not complete. I'm on windows 7 so maybe the driver is for another system. If you can provide futher help, Thanks in advance.
New approach
Ok I cannot get the drivers to install on my computer. Window 7 seems to default to its own driver and will not let me install the rockusb drivers.
With that said, I have the system Update.img and was wandering if the img itself can be rooted and then updated to the tablet. If this is possible and anyone with the knowledge is willing I will upload it. Or if someone is really patient and would like to walk me through the process and I will attempt to do this myself
No Help
So with no help I assume this is dead. I have a usb driver package with an .inf file a .sys file and a .cat file but this will not install on my computer thus leaving without a clue and no help. Have seached for a way to force install this driver command line install right click and install the inf. Nothing works so if someone wants to throw me a bone, thanks, if not I guess this thread is dead.

Can't tell your level of PC knowledge so if you already know this don't get offended. The .inf is editable and there are areas in there that allow manufacturers to prevent installation on some OS's to prevent conflicts. Make a system restore point or better yet a backup and then post the contents of the INF somewhere and point the folks here to it and they may be able to help you edit it to install. Regardless, you'll have to use the "have disk" option instead of letting windows search for a driver even if you get the edits right. And the usual disclaimers about me not being responsible for any issues with your equipment as a result of this are in effect.

I was able to root using the instructions above although i don't think you need the rockusb drivers. You just need the usb drivers that come with the android sdk. I am on Win 7. Thanks for the above info for rooting.
I was able to install ROM manager and now proceeding to backup ROM and upgrade using this guide: cant post link as forum is preventing, but search for rom flash guide on androidpolice com.
Hope this helps.
Big thanks to this thread to get me going...!!!
?
could someone please, Barney style, Explain how I am supposed to select the android_winusb.inf because my steps are as follows. Right click on device p771a in device manager, browse my computer, let me pick from a list of device drivers, have disk, point to the google usb driver (C:/Android/android-sdk/extras/google/usb_driver) select the android_winusb.inf open. Hit ok, (The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for you device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows for x64-based systems). Hope this helps explain my troubles. Glad that my thread is helping others to root this device but it does not work for me.
Could it really be that simple?
Found in another forum about the nexus 7 when connected to the pc there is a presistent notification that allows you to change the connection type from mpt to camera which will give you adb access and the tool from this thread works great. Thanks for the help guys, got my root on

Glad you could figure it out...
I was not able to use the ROM Manager to backup the ROM since the device is not supported on this tool, but see below for how you can obtain the stock image.
I've tried to flash multiple different ROMs using RKAndroid to the tablet, spending days on this, with no success. The tool itself works great and I am able to flash the ROMs since it supports the RK29 chipset which I believe this tablet has. The stock ROM for this device is available from the manufacturers web site (the link is available when you go to Settings => About Device => System Update, hkcdigital dot com slash update slash update.img), if anyone would like to take the stock rom and upgrade it to Android 4.2/JB.
I was able to unpack/repack the stock image using the wendal image tools and modify / cook the ROM using Android kitchen method described elsewhere in this forum. Rockchip Batch Tool is another great utility to flash custom ROMs to this device. Also, If you put the ROM as update.zip or update.img file on the microSD card, the tablet will take it and flash the image as long as it is in the right format. Ofcourse you can put the tablet into recovery and restore from there as well. I've found that the stock image (update.img) has the following file/folder format when unpacked: /RK29xxLoader(L)_V2.27.bin, /package-file, /parameter, /recover-script, /update-script, /Image/boot.img, /Image/system.img, /Image/recovery.img and /Image/misc.img.
Is it possible to upgrade this tablet to Android 4.2 or atleast Jelly Bean? Would be very helpful if someone is able to do this. The most success I've had so far is with the custom ROM Oma_Odys_Loox_JB_4.1.1_v1.2.2a flashed using RKAndroid. It flashed the tablet fine, updated the boot etc. On tablet boot I am able to see the new logo, but then the it doesn't go anywhere from there. I think customizing this ROM or the stock ROM we should be able to get the new OS on to the HKC tablet. I've given up for now since I don't have the time to spend on this anymore. If someone is able to do this, please post the instructions or upload the custom ROM, as I am sure it will benefit a lot of people and will be much appreciated. Happy cooking!
Thanks!
jawadshaik- rom manager
If you have successfully flashed rom manager on this device could you post the steps you took to do so. What version? Manual flash? The program itself says there is no recovery for this device.
Sorry jumped the gun on that last post. Thanks for the info
What's the secret to keeping the battery from draining so quickly while it's idle? I just got this and see it drained about 40% in about 2 hours I think and I wasn't using it.

@jawadshaik
Just out of curiosity, when you were flashing that Rom that brought up the boot screen, did you do a wipe/factory reset from recovery mode before flashing? I have no idea if that would help or not, but most if not all roms require a data wipe before flashing... Just curious if you had tried this as I have heard of this happening on other devices because a data wipe wasn't done first. Might be worth a shot if you haven't tried it already, just a thought

So after doing working on this a while, I've finally figured it out. Here are some caveats:
1. You can't do this on a Mac or Linux box. Don't ask me why, you just cant.
2. You have to turn on USB debugging, change the Security to allow Unknown sources and MOST IMPORTANT: when you plug it in, you have to change it to "Connected as a Camera". Putting it in storage mode doesn't work!
HOW TO INSTALL THE PROPER DRIVER & ROOT THE DEVICE:
1. Follow the steps quoted above and download the Google Android SDK, and the Java JDK (from oracle.com/java).
2. When you first plug it in (use the USB plug labeled USB not the HOST one), it complains and will discover a P771A device. When it does, right click on your computer, choose Manage my computer, go to the device manager and then right click on the P771A device. Click "Update Device Driver". Choose "Browse my computer for Driver software". Then choose, "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer". Browse to the \adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver folder which you would have if you had downloaded and installed the Google Android SDK. A list of 3 drivers will appear when you click OK. CHOOSE THE "ANDROID BOOTLOADER INTERFACE" as the driver. None of the others work.
3. Run the root script batch file mentioned above which can be found here at: sourceforge.net/projects/androidroot
4. The root script isn't really great at explaining so I'll try. When you first run it, make sure your device is unlocked and on the home screen.
5. The first thing it will do is reboot your machine. Don't press enter until your machine comes back up.
6. After your machine boots unlock it and then press Enter again. Your machine will reboot. This time it won't seem to come up but the backlight will remain on.
7. Wait about 30-45 seconds then press enter again. You should get: uid=0(root) gid=0(root) in the command prompt window.
8. Press Enter. You should get:
remount succeeded
727 KB/s (22364 bytes in 0.030s)
Removing changes except ROOT...
Installing superuser...
2288 KB/s (843503 bytes in 0.360s)
9. After about 30-60 seconds, your device should reboot. You'll see a box briefly saying "Android is Upgrading" and you'll arrive at the lock screen. Press Enter to exit the command prompt.
Your device is now rooted and you should see "SuperUser" installed. I promptly installed "root uninstaller" to get rid of Facebook, Skype, and Youtube which my little kids don't need access to. This device doesn't have a bootloader or recovery mode so rooting it doesn't get you much besides the ability to uninstall the system software. Have fun.
This may help someone but on step 2 of the guide on the second page, after you right click your device and go to "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer". You then click "Show All Devices" then "Have Disk..." Direct it to the root of the adt-bundle folder you downloaded then you can select from the three drivers. I'm on windows 7 32bit and the drivers didn't show up for me like how it was suppose to..
I also could NOT get any of the drivers in the "manufacturer USB" packet to install... I WAS able to install the google drivers, but that also would not allow ADB to see the device... So still stuck with everyone else...
P771A possible problem
I'm having a similar problem where the USB driver downloaded through Android SDK's -> Extras -> Google USB Driver, tells me that the file contains no information about my device. I noticed in the Sources of SDK, there wasn't an API for 4.0.4, only 4.0.3 then 4.1, so i downloaded 4.0.3 repo.
============================================
my devices is on 4.0.4, and my Kernal is as follows:
3.0.8+

Wed Aug 29 09:59:19 PDT 2012
Build Number:
P771A-user 4.0.4 IMM76D user.v402.007 release-keys
============================================
I've also made sure weather Unknown Sources is on, as well as USB debugging.
Might the Kernal be the problem? Also, does it matter weather its MTP or CTP?
Now HKC is telling me that they don't support the ability to jail break their devices

Help with Rooting Zoostorm SL8 mini.

Hello could anyone please help me with rooting my zoostorm sl8 mini running ICS. I just don't know which rooting program to use and with one will work. I have search the web now for days and cant find anything.
Please Help!
Thanks:good:
Use the Qemu exploit
This can device can be rooted using DoomLords Xperia script. I have ported the script to linux as well for Ubuntu users,
The original script is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
I haven't tested the Windows script, but I assume it will work as I haven't changed anything, the Linux script has been fully tested and I have successfully rooted the sl8 mini using it.
For Windows see below:
1) Download the attached zip file and Super1Click zip file ( http://download.cnet.com/SuperOneClick/3000-2094_4-75447027.html ).
2) Unzip the zip files into a new folders (you can use 7-zip for this : http://www.7-zip.org/)
3) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
4) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
5) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
6) Connect the table to the PC with a USB cable.
7) When the new Hardware Found Wizard find the Android device and can't find a driver, select install from speficic location and browse to drivers folder under the folder you just unzipped the Super1click file to.
8) The driver should install from here and will show as an Acer Android device.
9) If Windows complains about the driver not being signed tell it to continue anyway.
10) Reboot the Windows PC if requested by the Hardware installation Wizard.
11) Discconect and replug the USB cable.
12) Open a windows command prompt
13) Navigate to the folder where the unzipped rootsl8mini.zip files are.
14) type runme.bat
15) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
16) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
For Linux (Ubuntu Precise Pangolin)
1) Install Android SDK, make sure the folder where adb is located is in your shell path variable. See link for Ubuntu instructions (http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/07...-androidsdk-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/)
2) Download the attached rootsl8mini.zip file and unzip it into a folder.
3) Go into the folder where you unzipped the file and make the runme.bat.sh file executable. (Myhost:$ chmod 777 runme.bat.sh)
4) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
5) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
6) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
7) Connect the tablet to the PC with the USB cable.
8) Execute the runme.bat.sh script (Myhost:$ ./runme.bat.sh)
9) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
10) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
Enjoy
Thank you, do I go to unzipped file using command prompt?
Thanks
I have tried to root the tablet and it wont install the drivers, it keeps saying that the file is corrupted or missing.
I'am running windows 8 64.
any suggestion's why it is doing this?
Many thanks :good:
I`m a noob to the Zoostorm. Are there any JB / CM10 ports for it?
Are they known as another name elsewhere in this forum?
Can anyone shed any light on this? Fantastic write-up by mikel by the way. Will test as soon as the mother-in-law gets hers for xmas from us!

download and update the zip
Bought this tablet as a gift for my father and assumed that connecting it to a usb keyboard would be straightforward (yeap android noob ) . My question is , is that even possible? Is there a custom rom that can be installed, I presume after rooting the device that enables usb host mode?

1. Download jdk 32bit only from here, Android sdk from here, Unlock root from here, adb_usb.ini from here and A87 drivers from here.
2. Install jdk
3. install Android sdk, after installing open sdk manager form star and select "android sdk platform-tools" and "google usb driver" unselect the rest, click install packages. After installing put the adb_usb.ini file in "C:\Users\(your PC name)\.android"
4. Now on your phone goto settings>applications>development>enable usb debugging and connect usb cable, it should say usb debugging mode and show a little green android icon on the topleft (if not then reinsert cable or re enable usb debugging)
5. Windows will detect the device, let it stabilize then extract A87 drivers to a location say "C:/drivers"
6. Now goto start type "device manger" open device manager, you wil find "android adb interface" right click upgrade drivers and lead it to a location of your extracted drivers, do the same with other devices you get with an exclamation icon. (dont worry if you dont find other devices, its fine)
7. Install Unlock root, open it and click root, it wil ask for the device select micromax A87 and Your done !!!
8. Press Thanks !! Have a nice day !!

I too faced the same problem a while ago :crying:, but at last got its solution...
Do this only if you Have CWM(clockworks mod) installed on your device...
If not then goto - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987020
And find it there...
Firstly, Get a rooted custom/stock ROM and save it in your device's sd card,
Then goto ClockWorks Recovery ( First power off your device, then hold volume up and power key untill superfone logo displays to get into recovery menu), (scroll up and down for three times to enable the power button with vol. up and down key)open 'mounts and storage' menu
Then choose 'format/system' . After the completion Goto main menu and choose 'install zip from sd card' -> choose zip -> And install it.
And after completion, Reeboot. DONE, your got a rooted device...!

Need more information. I understand you are panicking a bit, but in order to help, you need to tell us what Operating System. Is it Windows 7? Vista? Xp? 32-bit or 64-bit?
If you don't know you can find this in system properties by right clucking on My Computer and selecting properties.

its Windows 7 x64 bit
Uninstall all your previous drivers, uninstall kies, and then reboot. After which you need to install a fresh copy of the drivers found here: http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/GT-I9100LKAXEU-downloads?isManualDownload=true# click on the downloads on the side and download the top one which has kies included.
After installation reboot again, and plug your phone in, does it recognize it this time?
