Won't Recognize
I Have z3v D6708 on windows 10 and i can't get sony companion to recognize it either. PC keeps installing MTP USB Drivers and I also downloaded other drivers from XDA specifically for this phone and it still won't recognize. Tried unisntalling all drivers and seeing if the Sony Companion would find the phone and it wont. It always installs and recognizes the phone as an Xperia Z3v and shows up in the windows 10 phone companion but not with sony.
From that point I'm pretty much unable to get anything to flash or work. I'm stuck on Kitkat 4.4.4. I just got this phone and updates straight from verizon don't work either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Win 7
Just tried Xperia Companion on Windows 7 Enterprise with the same results. It will not recognize the phone.
Not working for me.
Mac OSX 10.11, Verizon SIM card, Giga's 5.1.1 rooted, tried both USB connection modes.

When I use PC Companion to upgrade Xperia S to A.67 version firmware, Win XP hang up. Tried many times still cannot get ti done. What should I do? Any problem on my Win XP system? Anyone has similar problem?
I have XP 32bit as well and no problems with PC Companion. First try uninstalling PC Companion. If it won't help, try different computer.
Can't get PC Companion to repair my device either, on two different PC's (XP and Win 7)
This is where the failure occurs:
09:34:41,86 [PhoneUpdate 12/03/20] CWizFlash failure detected
09:34:50,59 [PhoneUpdate 12/03/20] CWizFlash no firmware available reported.
09:34:50,63 [PhoneUpdate 12/03/20] Add statistic: Function: Phone Repair, Completion status: Fail, Error: No firmware available
Any suggestions??

Maybe you have moved the firmware files to another location.
Try to delete pcc and all files and folders related then install again.

Tried and failed.
SEUS states my device has the latest firmware and won't even give me the option to reinstall.

Can you attempt a repair and see if it works?
I realize you don't want to reformat your device but I can't figure out why it works up until the point of flashing and then fails.
Er... Id rather not try. "don't try to fix what is not broken. Reinstall the pcc and make sure you have admin privileges and try again. Also make sure you try other usb ports because some ports may be legacy usb or broken. Your XP also needs to have service pack 2 minimum.

Don't blame you

I contacted sony and say that xp have problem (maybe sp3 works)
Windows 7 is very stable with pcc.

Hi,
I am trying to use my SK17i as a dial up modem to use the GPRS connection active on my postpaid plan. however i havent been able to find the relevant driver for the same. Installed PC companion but it has been of no help.
Please provide me the link of the driver for the same or suggest me any means through which i can use it as a modem.

That is for native android tethering. PCC should work on Windows XP for Sony Ericsson dial up modem.

I can't find any function in PC Companion for that, according to me there is no option for Android phones in newest PCC anyway, as Android already includes that.

I used the PCC included with my X8 and use it with a remote PC wearing windows xp. I had to keep USB debugging on. Well, that's an old story now I have Windows 7 & 8.
To OP, try PDAnet or similar to work
Thanks all for your replies ... i believe the usb tethering is possible with win XP, as when i turn it on, windows xp detects a new hardware. however since the driver is not available the modem cannot be installed.
with win7 its just a breeze...!
That's the thing, there are no proper drivers for Windows XP.

I have looked for debug drivers for my Xperia X10 on Windows 7 but can't find any.
Windows sees the phone and I can use the USB storage option.
However, I can't get it to connect to ADB for debug in Eclipse.
Have no problem on my (old) XP machine.
The drivers on the Sony-Ericsson site don't seem to support Windows 7.

No, just skip the spam and download the drivers.

I try them as soon as I get to work in the morning.
Edit:
Worked first time. Many thanks.
just do this
just install flashtool
and then in flashtool folder you will see drivers folder..open it and open that file inside it.....choose whichever driver you want to install....it will bug many times that windows"this driver may not be compatible with sooo soo soo" simply click yes or accept ...
done adb is only android debug

hey did it really work for you?? i'm still in trouble....when i connect my xperia x10i the notification for "USB debugging on" comes up on the notifications bar...and phone asks if i want to connect to the computer or should just charging....
in PC the sony pc companion software comes up saying "sony ericsson phone detected"...but nothing after that...phone is not listed in the eclipse avd list...
note: i don't have a memory card in the phone...is that the problem??
So i heard that an update is out using Sony PC Companion. However I cant download it since i am on mac. Can i use the Sony bridge for mac to update the phone?
how does updating from pc companion work exactly? I can always borrow a windows machine for the update

I downloaded Bridge for Mac and used that to update.
It asked me about java since I have got that on my mac but it just didn't update. I had to use Windows to update my phone

I updated it through Bridge but after unlocking the bootloader, it is back to good old FlashTool for me.
I prefer FlashTool btw.
I did it with success only via Bridge...
I did it using Bridge for Mac as well

My Bridge for Mac didn't even detect the Xperia ZU. I tried reinstalling it but nothing changed. So I borrowed a friends' windows laptop to update the software, successfully.
The topic tells the story I guess. On Windows I have no problem with connection no matter USB debugging is on or off. However under Ubuntu, I can not connect the device. It just not recognized. I have never had such problems with any of my android devices in the past.
I Googled a little but nothing I found helped. Hope there are other people using their computer with Ubuntu 14.04.
Ps: I am not an expert on Linux but I was able to solve some problems.
Thanks

I messages sony about this, their automated service said to update my device to the latest firmware
(every automated service does this to me)
I think they did this intetnionaly to force use of windows 8
Its fairly stupid if you ask me, doomlord has some apps on the playstore
I cant remember its name but it is a paid app and may help you now and later
I remember there used to be an issue with mtp, I thought it got fixed.

I never use windows and I never had a problem with Ubuntu. I've always been on 14.10 since I have the Z2 but I has another Xperia before which worked fine on previous version of Ubuntu (since 13.04 I think)

So, if understood correctly you can connect your Xperia Z2 device to your Ubuntu 14.10 PC without making any workarounds?

Exactly, I just plug it in and it always worked. Maybe it is because I have adb and fastboot installed, I think they come in an android pack (I don't remember the package name).

I did not install them this time but my Nexus 7 2013 just works. So I am not sure if it's a add related problem.
