Hi, I need help with my Xperia Go since my power button has stopped working and I used to turn on my device via fastboot with flashtool on windows 7 32bit. Now I have Windows 8.1 64bit and I can't even install fastboot drivers. I get error when installing them:
Google, inc. (WinUSB) AndroidUsbDeviceClass (12/06/2010 4.0.0000.00000).
Thanks.
Edit: Ok, I got fastboot drivers installed somehow, now I cant see my device in flashtool. When I boot my xperia to fastboot, it stays there only few secs.
Are you using USB 2 or 3 ports?
Someone posted working drivers for USB 3 on windows 8.1 running on Intel chipset, search the forum.

disable driver signature enforcement in windows then install drivers using the package given in flashtool or u can install SUS as it installs fastboot drivers by itself. But before anything it is recommended you ,uninstall the drivers which you have currently
sorry cannot post guide as per xda rules

I've got an Xperia U (st25i) unbranded firmware 6.0.B.3.184, but my Windows 7 x64 doesn't show adb device at all, I have a working mtp device (that looks like it cannot be disabled). Same device works fine in adb on linux, even passing the usb device to a vmware machine with linux.
I've tried with Xperia_P_Xperia_U_Xperia_sola_drivers.zip and install PC Companion, but the adb devices still does not show, if I force add the adb interface from inf, windows 7 says it cannot start, there is same problem on windows 7 x86. Windows xp x86 instead automatically installs mtd devices but prompts for the adb device drivers, so I can give him the drivers. Any clue?
Make sure PC is connected to internet then connect the device in fastboot mode. Win7 downloads and installs drivers automatically.

I don't need fastboot drivers, just adb to develop, I'm always connected, but adb interface does not show at all in device manager, I don't have unknown/failed devices in device manager

You have the "wrong" drivers installed. Use the drivers provided with c:\flashtool\drivers
-> then turn off internet on pc before connecting phone. <- prevents windoze from auto install via update

The only driver windows automatically install is the mtd (that doesn't need internet because is in win), I don't have the device VID_0FCE&PID_5171&MI_01 but only VID_0FCE&PID_5171
It's a bit strange a common developer should download a non sony tool to develop with a sony phone
I had a similar problem with my XS, I get around it by enabling 'install PC companion' in connectivity settings under 'xperia'. Then when you plug the phone in, on your phone select install. It should then appear both as an MTP device the PCC installation, just cancel that latter.
I've used the wrong thread title, it should be x64 not x86, I've just verified that windows 7 32bit downloads and installs the adb driver, I had similar problem with gt7500 on windows xp 64bit, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434319
I've solved modifying the inf file, I think I cannot change inf on windows 7 x64 because the driver becomes unsigned. Perhaps gt7500 works fine on windows 7
Heh... You stiill refuse to listen.
Install drivers provided with flashtool. Just doit and report back

tested with internet disconnected and drivers pack in flashtool-0.9.1.0-windows.exe, same thing, windows shows only mtp device

Tell Me how Please....:crying:
I just solved this issue for my Xperia S.
Here are the steps:
1. Install driver on flashtool (I also install the pc companion)
1. On device manager, open the MTP device, and select reinstall device driver
2. Choose install the driver manually and list the compatible driver
3. It would only show one "USB Composite Device" for this device and install it
4. After the driver installed, the adb device just shows up!
How to get Fastboot working in Windows 8 with the Xperia S? Somebody already got it working?
I installed PC Companion, Flashtool, Android SDK+adb. Everything works: I can connect through adb. Flashtools works in flashmode.
EXCEPT: fastboot...
Fastboot just won't see any device in Windows 8. How to fix this?
On my other computers/OSes it works without problems.

got the same problem on my xperia ray
I had this problem earlier.
Well windows 8 does allow unsigned fastboot drivers to get installed. I'm assuming u r installing drivers from file in flashtool folder.
Follow the procedure in This link to disable driver signatures.
Reboot system after procedure done, then install the fastboot drivers they should work fine.

(Previously I disabled the driver enforcement through the command shell with 2 commands. But apparently that did not work.)

Hi,
i'm trying to flash kernel to my st15i under win8.1.
Application and drivers are installed corectly, but after connecting phone in fastboot mode there is a message:
"USB device not recognized"
Under win7 there was no problem (the same procedures, the same PC, the same phone, flashtool 0.9.11.0)

Windows 8 has new type of security, that disallows installing unsigned drivers. Thereby fastboot drivers are not installed.
Follow this guide to install fastboot drivers: http://flashtool.net/disabledrivers.html

I'm affraid that your guide helps in win8 not 8.1, where there is no problem with installing drivers. Drivers are installed without any problems like in win8. Problem appears while you try to connect phone in fastboot mode.

Same applies. Drivers are not installed, otherwise it would detect your device.

Yes, you are right, something is wrong.
But drivers are installed correctly, becouse of lack problem during installation, and final windows info.
It seems that win 8.1 must have new flashtool/fastboot drivers.

Because you have win8.
In 8.1 there isn't active option "Driver signature enforcement" - there is no need to disable it.
.. and "PC settings" are different - this manual doesn't fit.

I seriously doubt, that 8.1 does not have such option.
I will try to look further into that, will update once I find anything.

I've tried this manual, uninstalled/installed few times flashtool/flashtool drivers - nothing changed... please help
This is weird, I am running out of ideas.
One of the last possibilities is that the drivers are not compatible with RC version of 8.1.
i also have the same issue..the pc doesnt recognise the device in fastboot or flashboot mode..
as for my idea, 8.1 is just a preview version..
i have 8.1 installed in pc and 7 in laptop.
so better work in 7 pal.
whenever i need to flash i use 7..
i think there is no solves for this issue..it has to be fixed by microsoft i think..
better you ask the questions to the windows support pages, genius people are waiting out there to help you..
anyways.. cheers!!
I have installed Walkman Experience Elite ROM (4.0.4) and it shows kernel 3.0.8.
The problem is, I can not get into fastboot!
I turn it off, hold Vol+Up and plug in USB, but the blue LED appears only for a couple seconds, then goes off and the phone just continues charging.
I installed Android SDK stuff and I couldnt use it to fastboot CM10 boot.img. I tried Flashtool, AND I installed the drivers.
(Note in case it matters (don't think so): at first I downloaded fastboot drivers alone and installed, but after installing Flashtool those may have been newer drivers, I tried to install them too but it said I already have)
Even after installing the drivers my Xperia U showed no signs of working fastboot, and PC still couldn't recognize it in fastboot.
I had problems installing the drivers, as I found out - because of Windows 8.1, but I got through that.
Another question: Does Xperia U change from ST25a to ST25i depending on kernel/ROM or something? (I have ST25a)
Please help!
I tried to follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447283
But at step 8 it doesn't recognize it as S1 fastboot device.

the second method u followed must work try again to disable driver signature enforcement and install the drivers if it shows the same error
try referring this page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff544842(v=vs.85).aspx
it explains about "Driver Package Installer (DPInst)".
What mode do you want to connect your phone? Mtp, fastboot or flash? If mtp mode its easy.. Just go to device manager and expand the usb controller you will see 1 or more "usb composite devices" listed there.. Just uninstalled every driver as that name and while you're doing it make sure your phone connected to pc in the beginning.. After uninstall succesfull just refresh device manager and it will automatically install a new driver.. Hope it help..
If it still cant recognized just reboot your pc with phone still connected to pc..

Woah really? Im using freshly-installed Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit on laptop and i didn't even installed ANY drivers yet (not even Flashtool) and my phone easily recognized although i had to do the step above sometimes. And i tried it using both USB2.0 and 3.0 and it always worked. A bad pc usb slot/data cable/phone micro usb slot maybe?
