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

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!
Hello All,
Does anyone know where to get ADB Drivers for new Sony Xperia Tablet S?!
Also can any of the current owners confirm if they can charge their tablets through USB cable connected to the PC?
OK never mind I got it, I installed Tablet s ADB drivers the manual way and I got it working.
For those who need it, Download Here and follow below steps...
If the driver installation fails, you will need to manually install the driver.
Go to the Device Manager and find the failed install (typically the yellow "!" mark and "Sony Tablet")
Right-click on it and select "Update Driver"
Select "Browse my computer for driver software"
Select "Let me pick from a list..."
Choose "Show All Devices" and click "Next"
Click "Have Disk..."
Click "Browse..."
Browse to where you extracted the ADB driver installer and select "android_winusb.ini"
Click "OK"
From the list, select the 3rd choice: "Android Composite ADB Interface"
Click "Next"
A warning will pop up: "Installing this device driver..." click "Yes"
Another warning will pop up: "Windows can't verify..." click "Install this driver software anyway"
The driver should finish installing.
Click "Close" and it should now show up as an "Android Composite ADB Interface"
Restart PC
You can now use ADB through a command prompt window to run commands.
e.g. adb devices

Hi, when i try to install the ADB drivers, I find my tablet in the device manager, as a portable device under the name SGPT12 in stead of Sony tablet. Also when i want to upgrade the driver. It just gives me some options for MTP-drivers. When I say I want to browse for driver, I can select the ADB-file, but then it says it is not compatible with Windows x64...
Do you know any solution for this?
(I tried it with other USB devices and they can all get the ADB driver, but only my tablet does refuse it )
It seemed to have solved itself:good:

Hello zorbakun and condi,
all is now alright! No brick at all thank god
I plug my phone into a USB port.
The first time I did so, an AutoPlay window pops up prompting me to run LGAutoRun.exe. I click to do so.
The LG United Drivers are installed onto my computer great.
But then an AutoPlay window pops up prompting me to run LGAutoRun.exe. I click to do so.
My computer attempts to install MTP USB Driver, but fails. According to Windows, the device is unplugged.
The AutoPlay window reappears. Repeat from the beginning of the paragraph.
What have I done to deserve such trouble, LG?!?!
Apparently the drivers installed directly from phone are not enough. In any case, I was observing similar behaviour *until* I installed LG PC Suite (which you should have been prompted to do too). It's stupid, it sucks but again, it's LG.
Install the LG drivers first. After that, when you plug your phone, it will be recognised as an mtp device.
Have you got Windows Media Player installed?

Plug the phone, go to device manager in windows and uninstall the driver for the phone( or whatever shows up with the yellow triangle). Then unplug the phone and connect it back again. It should work. If not, uninstall the lg drivers and clean every trace of them and start from the begining.

Tried uninstalling the LG U2 USB Driver, then disconnected and reconnected phone. Same problem. LG U2 USB Driver was installed but MTP USB still shows up as unplugged.
Then uninstalled LG PC Suite and LG United Mobile Driver, reinstalled LG PC Suite and reconnected phone. Problem still occurs. I run LGAutoRun.exe and United Mobile Drivers are installed. Same problem. MTP USB shows up as "device unplugged" and phone keeps disconnecting and reconnecting to computer, saying drivers were not properly installed due to MTP USB being unplugged.
Interesting to note the phone is listed as a CD-ROM drive.

Install the software from the CD image. It will load the correct driver. After this re-connect the device and the CD image will show up for a few seconds and disappear. After this the storage will show up. That is how it worked on my device.

I have already tried what you said as I posted before. The LG United Mobile driver gets installed but the MTP USB Driver does not get installed due to the device being unplugged according to Windows, even though I have yet to disconnect the phone from the computer. The phone still says "Connected as an installer".
The phone is recognized as an F: Drive by Windows but LGE Mobile but keeps disconnecting and reconnecting every 20 seconds or so.
I am going to have to upload a video to YouTube to make things crystal clear.

Try a different USB port or cable. My P769 would not work on my USB 3 ports, but was happy on the USB 2 port. I had already installed the drivers and LG PC Suite and it picked up each mode just fine.
Plugging the phone into USB 2.0 makes the phone show up in portable devices, but LG Suite fails to identify the phone. I tried using both LGE Android Net MTP USB Device and MTP USB Device but they both fail. I have LG United Drivers and LG Suite installed already.
got thesame problem here mate..i search all over here and google the driver but still cant find any solution..this is so frustrating to fix this issue,,got install and uninstall the pc suite and driver many times but still cant get the solution..so what could be the fix????
no one can suggest..someone told me that maybe its causing the broken data cable but i have 3 cables now..
everytime i intend to install the MTP driver thing my pc always failed to do so,,saying that the filename,directory name or syntax label is incorrect..but i manually direct the search to lg driver folder but same error occurs..or there still other alternative apps that can transfer files without removing my sd to my phone,or atleast transfer files over the wifi..??
Any fix for this one? Already tried uninstalling, installing LG drivers, removed and reinserted SD card and everything. But still to no avail. It installs everything successfully EXCEPT USB MTP device which is the one I needed the most. Any solutions? Thanks!

You must be on 64 bit windows. Not even on 64bit, Still try this...
1) Uninstall LG Drivers, LG PC Suite and anything you see named LG. Restart PC.
2) Install latest LG Driver from this post (step 4)
3) Install Optional MTP Driver from this post (step 4)
4) Open Windows Device Manager (just to watch whats happening.)
5) Disconnect Internet (To avoid stupid online WDM drivers)
6) Connect phone with Usb and let drivers install automatically. Give it some time to install drivers keeping watch on Device Manager window.
7) Keep changing USB connect modes to all modes one-by-one on Phone and let drivers install.
You should see MTP drivers installed now. If this does not help, cant think of anything else. If this works, press THANKS button
EDIT: Connect USB at backside of pc, directly to USB on pc motherboard.

My computer connects fine to my Z2 tablet via usb, both when in mtp-mode as well as in mass storage mode. I can browse the content the tablet via computer.
However Sony's own software, the pc companion can't find the tablet at all. There is no error message, just a complete blank when it is searching for the tablet.
I'm running Windows 7 and have tried uninstalling, reinstalling both the software and drivers but to no luck.
Anyone else with this problem or suggestion how to solve it?

I couldnt get it to work either, tried everything, even wiping the tablet.
However what worked for me was connecting the Tablet through wifi. With that I could see the tablet in PC companion, however I still cant get USB connection to work. So try Wifi?
I had the same problem. Could fix it this way:
plug in usb-cable only to your computer
start connection-progress within the software
plug in the other end of the usb-cable when prompted to connect your computer and tablet
voilĂ !
I never imagined, the connection-order of the usb-cable would make any difference, but it works now (whyever).
If it doesn't work for you, download, install and run the update service (http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/), follow the instructions until your computer installs new drivers (don't wipe your device and don't apply any update, just abort the progress at this point) and try again the steps above.

Tried the above and still no luck.... Does anyone have any other suggestions? The tablet is recognized as a MTP device but will not connect to PC Companion. Ironically, when I first downloaded PC Companion, it did briefly connect to the device but it looked like additional windows drivers may have installed (?). I abruptly lost connection and have not been able to get it back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I had same issue as u. I fixed it like this: I switched to a laptop that had windows 7 running on it instead of windows 8. Uninstalled pic companion and redownloaded from Sony site. And installed. I reset the tablet. After reset done. I ran the pc companion then I connected my tab to laptop USB. And now after 15 sec my tab was recognized and prompted for the. 402 update. That is how I fixed it.

So I picked up my Verizon LTE Xperia Z2 the other day SGP561, and am having the same issue with not being able to connect the PC Companion. Every time I try to "pair" it with my laptop (running Win 8.1) the PC Companion app tells me the pairing has failed, try again.
I've uninstalled the device from the computer, uninstalled PC Companion, factory reset the tablet, re installed the PC companion and tried again. Every time, it gives me the same error, and just will not pair.
Instructions from Sony
I just had this issue, I assume you solved it but someone else might end up here looking like I did.
These were sent from John @ Sony support for the Z2 (Works for other models too though).
Running the software repair
Before you start you have to download the PC Companion software from http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/ and install it on your PC.
Once installed on your PC, double-click the PC Companion icon on your desktop to start the update.
Please ensure your phone is powered off and not connected to the PC when you begin this process. You are not required to connect the phone until after step 10.
1. Install and open PC Companion then select Support Zone.
2. Phone Software Update.
3. Start.
4. Repair Phone
5. Continue
6. Accept data removal
7. Next
8. Wait for prepare
9. Select Phone
10. Follow the connection steps
Just did this myself and I am back up and running (Pitty it happened in the first place though)
Having reinstalled Windows it now worked for me..
Hi KapaiKiwi,
Thanks a lot for your instructions. After to navigate through the web whithout success (and reading very strange solutions) I have followed your procedure and finally I have fixed my Xperia LT15i.
I had deleted services and applications in order to optimize my phone until I reached a point where my USB connection failed. I had no way to reflash it and i felt lost.
This morning I had the plan to get a new phone. Thanks to you I have saved a lot of money!!!

Try this first:
Uninstall (and delete if possible) the driver then reinstall it
Install the USB-Drivers from the Android SDK first (should automatically be checked to install when opening the SDK Manager)
If the above fails here is how to manually install the drivers for USB-debugging:
Method 1:
Download the Google USB drivers from here
Extract the ZIP anywhere
In the Windows Device Manager right click "G Watch" and select to update the drivers
Select search for drivers on the computer (2nd option)
Point Windows to that folder you just extracted (should be called "usb_driver")
Select that folder and Windows should install the correct drivers. You might have to restart the PC.
If method 1 fails (which was the case for me) go to method 2
Method 2:
Again in the Windows Device Manager right click "G Watch" and select to update the drivers
Select search for drivers on the computer (2nd option)
Select choose driver from a list of device drivers on this computer
Choose "Android Device" and click next
Select "Google" as manufacturer and "Android ADB Interface Version X.x.x.x" (newest one, for me it is 9.0.0.0) as model then click next
Select yes in the next dialogue
Windows should now manually install this driver
Remember that you also have to allow USB debugging on the watch first and also accept the warning on the phone that will appear after the watch drivers are correctly installed, else ADB will not work.
The options might not always be accurate as my computer language is set to german and I just freely translated
Make sure you have an up to date ADB version as well. I updated both driver and platform-tools from SDK manager. I loaded the COMPOSITE ADB version 10 driver.
Also you may have to turn on Bluetooth Debuging in Wear App and on Watch before you can get a prompt to authorize your PC ADB connection. This will likely show on the Phone not the watch to accept. (I ran into this issue last night)

take the watch off the charger. turn the screen of your phone on. then place the watch on the dock connected to the pc again. there should now come up a warning on the phone about accepting the usb debugging. accept it and your done.
you probably didn't see the notification before as it comes up on the phone and not the watch so when your phone screen is off you won't see it.

Which driver did you select exactly?
Same problem... Can't install driver
So here's what I did.... I downloaded the latest google usb drivers. Putted the usb drivers folder into C disc in a folder android... So C//android/usb_drivers (I don't know if the line I typed is written right but you know where it is and what I'm talking about )
Then I plug in my watch (usb debugging already checked), right click the G watch in device manager. Update drivers.... Search manually to the downloaded usb driver folder (android/usb_drivers).
If I press next it fails. So I have to select my device... The only device closest to what I think is the right device is the Samsung android device.
So I press next it completes but still not properly connected.
Read about the Samsung android device issue... So deleted the drivers completely... Again... Reconnected my watch but it always shows as Samsung android device....
Tried it on Windows 8 and 7...no luck so far...
Haven't tried it with the sdk manager but it's not so clear to me... It is only to download the USB drivers? Or also to install them properly?
Pls help! I wanna root this bit**
Thanks!

So here's what I did.... I downloaded the latest google usb drivers. Putted the usb drivers folder into C disc in a folder android... So C//android/usb_drivers (I don't know if the line I typed is written right but you know where it is and what I'm talking about )
Then I plug in my watch (usb debugging already checked), right click the G watch in device manager. Update drivers.... Search manually to the downloaded usb driver folder (android/usb_drivers).
If I press next it fails. So I have to select my device... The only device closest to what I think is the right device is the Samsung android device.
So I press next it completes but still not properly connected.
Read about the Samsung android device issue... So deleted the drivers completely... Again... Reconnected my watch but it always shows as Samsung android device....
i wanna use the android wear apk installer. but it won't conect to the watch...
Tried it on Windows 8 and 7...no luck so far...
Haven't tried it with the sdk manager but it's not so clear to me... It is only to download the USB drivers? Or also to install them properly?
Pls help! I wanna root this bit**
Thanks!

help!!
So I bought my Lg G Watch off some dude and it turns out the watch was Rooted. I tried to reset to factory default but it wouldn't let me and then i was told that I had to unroot it first but to do this I need to install the Lg G Watch Drivers which is where my problem lies! When I open device manager my device does not appear anywhere there, I have ADB debugging turned on but apparently I have to have it paired to a phone which I also can't do because in order to pair it to a new phone I have to factory reset it. I'm stuck, someone please help Ive also tried to do the Android SDK way of installing the drivers but nothing there either.

You don't need to unroot the watch to reset it. On the watch just go to settings -> factory reset
Does not appear in device manager
OK I have tried my best to resolve this, but need to ask for help....
My g watch (LG-W100) does not appear on the device manager.... unless in fastboot mode.
I have, in the past, unlocked the bootloader, ghoma'd it (is that a thing?) but as support has now stopped, i returned my watch to stock using the ghoma tool.
I didn't change anything on my 2 pc's that I have used, so I assume it's a "watch" thing, my "about" says...
Software Version 5.0.1 (want to update this)
Build number LWX48P
Android Wear 1.0.5.1627902
Things i have tried....
Reset watch...3 times. enabled adb debugging, enabled bluetooth debugging.
Revoked permissions (was hoping to see a request on my phone, but nothing).
Put watch into fastboot mode (the only time the PC "see's" the watch) and followed the usb driver guides.
Tried to adb from recovery mod, the watch disappears from the device manager then so no adb.
Tried running "OTA Update to Lollipop 5.0.2 from kitkat KNX01Q" whilst in fastboot... no go.
Tried running "LG G Watch Restore Tools" whilst in fastboot... no go.
Cleaning the contacts on the watch and cradle (although as it shows up in fastboot, I don't think this is a problem).
Hitting it.... no go.
Swearing at it... no go.
REALLY Swearing at it... no go!
Last resort, looking on google for solutions... no go
Just to be clear, this is not a "see it in Device manager, click on it, driver update etc".... it does not appear on Device manager unless in fastboot.
Has anyone else come across this? If so, please help!
Thanks for sticking with it this far!

OK, problem solved....
I stumbled over root junky's youtube vid, a comment from a user had a similar problem, root junky's advice, get "LG G Watch Restore Tools V8.zip" from here... Root Junky's excellent site!. Now...
1) Put watch into fastboot mode (hold reset button for 10 seconds, and then when the LG logo come up, swipe from top left to bottom right).
2) Run "1 LG G Watch Tools for Windows.bat"
3) Ensure your watch (device) is shown.
4) Select "6" (Restore your G watch to stock)... let it do it's thing.
5) My watch got stuck in a boot loop....so...
6) Reset into fastboot, then recovery mode (tap ">" twice then tap "o") .
7) When in recovery mode, "wipe data/factory reset" (swipe down twice then right, then OK).
8) Back in recovery mode, "wipe cache partition" (swipe down 3 times then right).
9) Finally "reboot system now"..... my watch then showed up on windows as all tutorials
I then updated firmware from root junky's site (link above)... all good, thanks root junky!
Hopefully this will help someone!
Thanks a million.. method 2 worked for me
