Hello, I have used flashtool successfully with windows 10, but yesterday windows updated to v1607. Flashtool loads and finds ROMs etc but once I select Xperia Z2 for example nothing appears.
I suspect that I might need to install drivers but nothing works.
Can anybody help me?
Try restart Windows 10 with Disable Driver Signature Enforcement from advance startup and install the drivers from there, and reboot to normal usage, this should fix this problem.

i'm not stupid.. but maybe somebody know the solution ??
Windows 7 update
I let the operating system do an automatic update when asked if I wanted to search for drivers for my s740. It downloaded most of the appropriate software bits like the windows mobile device center and the radio driver I think. It however did not download the actual s740 driver. An install gone wrong I think.
No matter how many times I unplugged and re-plugged it back in all I saw was unknown device in the device manager. I then selected to update the unknown device driver and let windows seacrh for it and it did the trick!
Hope this helps.
thnks.. but only it's not the solution. he still saying unkown device. Maybe you can find out what the drivers ar, and share them with me over here??
thnks
Delete the unknown Device in the Windows 7 "Device Manager". Than install the latest "Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center". Now ist should work.
thnks for the new sugestion.. but this is not working either..
The first step, delete it - no problem
Installing the Windows Mobile Device Center - from microsoft site.. download it. Is perfect
When the pop up screen coms, to my computer there is standing installing the drivers.. (Perfect whe thing)
Then come's the error.. The big red cross.. It says, you unpluggd you're device.. ?? Crazy thing.. i did not.
So any body have a new solution for this.. Or please post the drivers....??
Hell Guys, here's my update to my problem. It's solved.
I'm was going to Windows/Configurarion Screen/Software
There i'm deleting everything from mobile device mananger and, than in device mananger i'm deleting the only device that hase no drivers (my phone )
Plug in and windows do the rest..
thnks for the help people..
Hi everyone, I have an X10a and managed to get upto step 3 without any drama. Once I try to do step 3 however, it says that the device wasn't found. USB debugging is enabled and everytime I plug the phone in, the windows device manager thing comes up and tells me my phone is an X10i. Then it says there is an error and the new hardware might not function correctly.
I have the latest Pc companion and everything. Any ideas?
Phew never mind.Just needed to let windows do it's thing
Can you elaborate how did you overcome device not found problem in Step 3?
I have the same problem and tried with re installation of PC Companion, SEUPS and doesn't work.
After Step 2 both of my computers can't install proper drivers for the phone even though the SE PC Companion and SEUPS detects device.
For some weird reason Windows detects my phone SO-10B (or X10) as X10i in Device Manager and don't know why. I tried to install manually drivers through Device Manager but it wouldn't let me. I tried Step 3 procedure on 2 Windows 7 computers 32bit and 64bit.
I rebooted, I changed USB ports.
It just doesn't detects it
Help, please. I'm quiet desparate
Install PC Companion then it will work its got some needed drivers
If the device manager pops up and asks you what to do, let it install drivers. Just let it search automatically and as thor said, you need pc companion.
EDIT: What I did exactly was go into control pannel -> Printers and other hardware -> add hardware -> yes I have already connected the hardware. Then let it search for updates. It took a few minutes for me until it managed to find the drivers. I'm on 32bit XP by the way.
Guys I already wrote that I already reinstalled PC Companion and SEUPS.
I do have PC Companion installed and even updated to the newest version.
The device is now detected and installed correctly.
The only problem that Step 3.cmd still can't detected it on both of my computers (win 7 32 and win 7 64).
I even started the whole process from the beginning and I'm again stucked at step no.3
Here is screenshot.

Some other advices?
-USB Debuggining is enabled
-USB Storage is enabled (I tried with disabled)
-Both computers and phone were restarted between tries multiple times.
What should I do?
Mod. edit: There is a sticky for this kind of rooting related issues. Pls use that instead of opening new threads. CLOSED.
Need a little help setting up my dev environment on Windows 7.
I had it working perfectly on my old PC running XP. I have since bought a laptop with 7 and am trying to set up a dev environment on it but am having issues with the drivers (at least as far as I can tell).
I have:
Android SDK installed - including all available components
Java 1.6 SDK and JRE installed - environment variable is set
SEUS and PC Companion installed
Rooted my phone to 026 using the original method - done on old machine
USB Debugging switched on on my phone
When connecting my phone, I get no option to install the driver. My SDCard also automatically mounts itself, which i'm not sure if that's related to my issue. Any ideas how to stop it from doing that?
When I try to update the driver software via Device Manager (browse to <sdkdir>\USB_DRIVER), I get 'Windows could not find driver software for your device'.
I've read through a few threads, particularly the rooting issues thread, and googled it in quite a few different ways with no luck. The closest I could find is XperiaX10iUser's post in this thread. Running USBDeview as mentioned, i can only see 'SEMC Flash Device' and 'Sony Ericsson X10i' that would be relevant. However, when I try to uninstall selected devices it does nothing (no error, just doesn't uninstall).
Running 'adb devices' returns a list of devices with nothing in it.
Any help/ideas would be much appreciated as i'm going insane here!
Are u maybe running 64bit win7?

Uninstall your Java and start from scratch using the 32bit versions of Java, and run USBDeview without the phone plugged in if you haven't done already.
Yes, I'm running 64bit Win 7.

I installed 32bit Java (1.6.0_20) and reinstalled all the Android SDK components. No change in symptoms.
I have run USBDeview with the phone plugged in and without.
i'm running win7 x64 and it works normally.
another day i tried install a theme (without have seus or pccompanion installed on my pc) and i had the same problem. after i installed pccompanion, it worked normally.
remember that you must have usb debugging on, to adb devices show your phone.

I definitely have USB Debugging on and PC Companion installed.
Where do the drivers for the X10i actually come from? The phone, SDK Drivers component, SEUS or PC Companion?
What am I missing?
Does anyone else's SDCard mount itself when plugging the phone in? It didn't do this on my old machine.
EDIT: I was able to remove USB devices using USBDeview. Just need to right-click and 'Run as administrator' (which is odd given that my user is admin). Didn't help me installing the driver though. Still can't find anything when pointing to <sdkdir>\USB_DRIVER.
My <sdkdir> is C:\Android\SDK. It shouldn't matter that it's not the default path should it?
EDIT2: Apparently, DoubleTwist has an auto USB mount option. Doesn't make a difference to the driver issue though.
Ok listen to this, it will seem a little crazy but i wonder if it will help
Install pdanet the desktop version ( its a program used for usb tether ) the idea is that this program installs the sonyericsson drivers with it, just follow the instructions of the installation process and tell me how it goes..

Hi sir, do you have time? I cant figure out what is wrong with my x10. When i try to flash those Generic Stock Rom, i get to have errors flashing. It aborts sometime when flashing system.sin and other sin depending on the tft file... i dunno what version my phone is but my pc detects it with flashmode. When im using Seus, it fails flashing in about 90% of the process... when booting my phone, just a quick vibrate with green flashes once. Do u have skype account? Hope u have time and can help me. Most of the links in xda our outdated. And i know my phone is outdated too. Thanks and more power
Hi there
I have seen some posts where users are having difficulty connecting Xperia to their PC or ADB. Therefore, I am writing this guide to help you all.
The guide was prepared using Windows 7 Ultimate but should work with Windows XP and Windows 8.
Firstly, Sony uses a different driver for their Xperia devices and therefore, sometimes you are unable to install drivers for your devices especially for ADB commands.
IF YOU ARE LUCKY
There are few ways to get around to install drivers for your device. The most convenient and easy is you plug in your device and wait for automatic detection of your device. Make sure you have USB connected as MTP in MY XPERIA in SETTINGS of your phone. The device drivers would be automatically installed by Windows update.
METHOD
If suppose you can not install your drivers, connect your xperia and then on your PC, go to My computer > Properties>Device Manager.
You should see an undetected hardware with a yellow exclamation mark over it. Open it and click on update my drivers. Then choose GOOGLE DRIVERS by choosing hard-drive. This should install the drivers for you. If this doesnot work. Try the attachment with the post where the drivers are modified to work with Sony Xperia Devices.
Follow the same steps but this time choose the attachment folder to search for drivers. It might say, the drivers are not verified. Just Ignore it and carry on installing them. You will need to unzip these files.
IF suppose you do not see any exclamation mark while you connect your xperia. Just go to control panel and add new hardware. Select, I will choose my device and then install from hard-disk. Select the folder where you have unzipped the files and you are good to go. The name of new hardware is not important as windows will read the drivers files and install drivers for Xperia.
This will install all drivers for your device. If there are two or more drivers while installing them. Redo the steps and install all of them individually.
Suppose your ADB still doesnot work, then
FOR ADB DRIVERS :
Download the ADB Universal Drivers and connect your device. Then hit install. The ADB drivers will be automatically detected and installed.
Further, if these tricks fail, you can delete the unknown driver from your control panel and then try finding it again by using refresh button(scan for new hardware changes) in device manager.
Another trick is to click on unknown drivers and delete them. Connect your phone to the PC and restart your phone. Then scan for new hardware in device manager. The drivers should be installed for your device.
If still there are some problems, I will try to help you out.

I'm getting a lot of problems with drivers for this device, seems Sony's guys did it just to say:
"Ok, now this device got some drivers, lets play poker :"
It's serious. To get ADB driver working was a lot of work, just got it working because our friend Ashu1307 posted this link for me ( maybe it can work for ya= http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552505)
Ok, that's nice since it was the only driver that's not working on windows 7.
I said windows 7
Now I'm on windows XP, tryied 2 machines already, and this goddam piece of **** don't have any driver working. Nothing, neither MTP, nor fastboot nor ADB nor flashmode (mass storage works, the ones I've quoted are detected, but don't work)
PC companion is another thing I'm hating. First I have to download the Web Installer, 27MB of nothing, since after the download it has to update because the sony's website offers outdated file. THen I download support zone, which detects phone but not the model.
What do I do? I'm going weird just about to break this phone on the wall, I never had so much problems on motorola's or samsung's or enen old sony ericsson's devices.
Before,my PC used to display an error whenever I tried to transfer files from my pc to my Xperia Sola.But after changing the kernel,I could transfer files with ease.So,do you think the problem in the kernel is related to this error?
I never had problem with drivers.
Trying another computer, still having the problems, I use the DoomKernel, do you think it has to do with it ?
Ok eventually got flashtool Xperia to work but no driver's for this device and it tells me I can only flash ftf files. when I go in to Xperia service menu it tells me I can unlock bootloader but on flashtool it tells me I can't so wether that is a driver's issue I'm not sure any help would be appreciated.
What do you want to achieve? The drivers are in the flashtoolsfolder.

On my laptop it tells me some fastboot driver's don't work with Windows 10 so it comes up wether a fail when I click on the bootloader unlock side of thing so is there a exploit or trick to doing it .
To install the drivers on Windows 8 or 10 you need to disable driver signing.
http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
Look at that walkthrough, do those steps, then when windows boots back up try installing the drivers. It should give you a warning that they're not signed but you can install them anyway.
(As always, do this at your own risk. Windows driver signing is there to ensure you don't install anything malicious but if you trust that the drivers your trying to install are OK this lets you get around the security checks and use them even without signing).
