Hey, I have an Xperia Pro (MK16i) in my hands. It doesn't boot fully, it passes the splash screen, the boot animation and then it gets back to the splash screen and this keeps repeating. I checked whether it boots into Fastboot and flash mode and thankfully enough it does, except it isn't recognized by the PC. I have a Laptop with Win 8.1, Dual-booting with Ubuntu 13.04 and another laptop with Windows 7. I tried everything, drivers, editing the rules file but unfortunately, none of this helped. Also, I have this feeling that USB Debugging is off. It'd be great help if someone replied with any ideas.
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTT, sent from my i9000
Your problem is "bootloop". If you have Ubuntu installed on your PC,download Flashtool for Linux and flash stock ROM into your phone.U don't need drivers.

I really Need Help! My computer wont recognize my tablet in fastboot mode, and my tablet wont read my micro SD card, also when i turn it on normally it stays at splash screen and when its plugged in to the computer the computer starts installing the drivers and it fails to install each time. I go to troubleshooting options and it states code 10. which states device cannot start.
I Have looked for ways around this, like manually installing the drivers, and my computer wont let me. Also the tablet can go to both: bootloader, and Clockworkmod recovery.
I factory reset my tablet so I cannot install anything, untill i get it to connect to my computer.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit on my computer!
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks!

Did you install the naked driver from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502 if not do that first once you get that working... then you should be able to fastboot to the pc... next thing I would concider is going to twrp recovery instead of cwm....either go for an older version or go the full gambit of nvflash then install the latest twrp... after that you should be set.....I can comment more on it if you need it....

What do you see in device manager with the tablet plugged into the pc and running in fastboot?
Maybe this helps
I had a similar issue but my tablet couldn't be identified by windows, at first i thought it was my drivers so i tried to install new ones but windows wouldn't let me stating the same code 10. At the end it was a defective usb cable, i bought a new one and everything worked all right the first time i plugged it in. And by the way i was stucked at the CWM loop. Hope this helps and sorry for my bad english.

Im not sure if it is a bad usb cable, i think it is my computer because my computer doesnt even recognize my iphone and i have itunes installed,
i think it is partially due to a funky computer for me.

Is it possible to install the USB drivers without NVFlashing again??? I have smoother_bean rom installed and everything works just fine, except that when I connect my gtab to my PC it only recognizes it as a APX device with a Yellow triangle with exclamation mark. Thanks for help!
Even out of APX mode you have to use the same drivers that are in the NVflash package. Just connect the tablet up and have it booted up in either the ROM or Recovery and then guide your driver installation to the same folder you used installing the APX drivers. In the ROM you will have to have USB debug turned off for some reason in order to install the generic MTP drivers explained in the DRH tread. Most of my transfers are done in recovery or via USB flash drives. Also I run Ubuntu and not Windows and the drivers are not needed. Last time I ran Windows XP I used those same steps, but couldn't get MTP to work until switch my OS to Ubuntu (Linux).

Thanks Nobe, (I did not want to clutter your ROM threat cause I have seen many complaints about ppl asking simple questions like this and do not really contribute to the development aspect ).... I will try to do this once I get home later tonight and hopefully it will work. will keep updated
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.
Why does nobody help? ;(

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
Hi
I'm trying to update my sgp 311 xperia tablet z to the latest stock rom. I've already downloaded the latest flashtool in two computers. The first computer is running windows 8 64 bits and the other is running ubuntu 14.04 64 bits.
My problem is that when I get into flash mode (volume down button pressed while plugging the usb), it only stays in flash mode for one minute or less and then it reboots.
I've tried this while in omni rom and on stock.
I've already installed the drivers included on flashtool following windows 8's tutorials. Also usb debugging is on.
I've already searched on google and xda but had no luck.
Thanks in advance.
