I have just tried to update my XDA to the Special Edition ROM. When I ran the program it got to Step 4 Upgrading ROM image and tehn came back with:
Error 008: Open Port Error
Can not open a COM/USB Port. Please use Device Manager on PC to make sure that the COM/USB port is available and working properly.
Have to click on OK at which point the program just closes.
Rerun the program and it comes up with an error:
Apapt ROM
Please connect your XDA to ActiveSync
Doesn't do anything on Retry. Have to Cancel.
Cancelling brings up Step 4. Upgrading Screen and the Error 008: Open Port Error again.
I'm stuck in a loop.
The XDA won't do anything now - it is stuck on the Upgrading Screen.
HELP PLEASE!! I'm dead in the water here ....
Hi guys,
I'm trying to run a regedit program on my 02 XDA 11s.
I have tried several, and when I try to run the setup or exe I get the following message:
"There is no application associated with SETUP. Run the application first then open this file from within the application"
Any ideas, it must be something simple as I have tried several different programs and all experience this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
whats the file type ?
cab
exe if it's exe you should make sure it's not a pc activesync install
if it's zip
or rar
you should make sure that you have a unpacker for those 2
I think the program I tried to run was not for my mobile device.
Is there a stand-alone regedit program avaiable that I can download.
Thanks,
Rob.

Many thanks.
I think I need to connect via the Sync cable and use the ActiceSync cable as most applications seem to have to be installed this way.
Thanks,
Rob.
"the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)"
Hmm... Can anyone help? See I have access to 2 computers. Activesync only works on one, but it's the same computer that gives me the above message.
The ROM installation file (RUUWrapper.exe) works on the other computer, but Activesync won't work!
Anybody know what this means and how I can fix it?

Hi!
I have just installed Windows 8 64bit on my PC. Now I want to use flashtool (flashtool-0.9.7.0-windows).
However, it's telling me that I need some drivers before I can flash my phone (xperia play r800i). I tried using this method:
sewer56lol said:
You have to disable driver signature checks as windows won't allow them, if you know how then upon boot go to troubleshoot settings (If you do not dual boot then you are forced to pull in your installation CD and go to Repair Computer section)
Then you go to advanced settings and after you hit boot in Safe Mode, reboot and then install the drivers and after that you need to reboot again to go to normal mode.

However, I think that I'm failing miserably. I get this error (while installing the drivers in failsafe mode):
DPInst.exe does not execute on your current Operating System.

The drivers I am installing is:
"Sony Ericsson Xperia arc, Xperia Neo, Xperia PLAY, Xperia acro IS11S, Xperia acro SO-02C drivers"
(From a list inside the program "C:\Flashtool\drivers\Flashtool-drivers.exe")
I also tried to do something listed on MSDN:
Thanks Marilyn and Hadron for your responses. It turns out I finally came across the solution I was looking for shortly after posting this. Here's what I did:
Open a command prompt as an admin and type:
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS (hit Enter)
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON (hit Enter)
I might have rebooted after that. That put the machine in test mode, like I was going for, and allowed me to install the unverified test driver.

But that failed too. Didn't really give me anything but the same error.
I am using Flashtool 64, since I'm on a 64 bit computer.
ANY HELP APPRECIATED!

When I try to execute the drivers in normal mode (ie. not fail safe) I get this:
" Driver name / status
[ ✓ ] Sony Ericsson (WinUsb) sa0102AdbDeviceClass (12/10/2010 2.0.0010.20010) / Ready to use

Did you check the flash box & fastboot box when choosing the drivers to install. They are at the bottom of the drivers selection.

I have tried it now. The results can be seen in this video I've made:
Installation of the drivers
As you can see, it fails to install the drivers.
I have a windows 7 laptop, but its just so slow to work with compared to my desktop w/ w8. The laptop basically have 512 mb ram & 1.66 ghz cpu.
Hope someone can help me fix this issue.
Have you unlocked your bootloader?
E: Never mind. Have you tried to do it manually or through flashtool via adb?

I dont think there is a fix. Because windows 8 doesn't allow programs on your computer outside the windows marketplace. (correct me if im wrong)
I think your right cherry.

What you tested was the beta. The other guy has the final product of windows 8 which is a different kind of beat.
New Info: In order to install applicatons on your windows 8 machine the applocation must have the approval from microsoft. Ouch..... Im stickin with windows 7 then maybe for good if Microsoft is going this route.
are the drivers just not installing altogether or do you get a can't start error?

totally agree with you chery2k just stick to win7 untill oxide& crew have a fix btw I think win8 is S***
also which version of flashtool did u guys try as 0.9.0.0 was released recently and new update coming soon(or may be out).
try this
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
reboot
download drivers (test signed a few)
try to run dpinst64 (if that fails)
manually install them
report back
also smartscreen can be turned off during install of windows 8
me too..
I do not think windows 8 it self the problem. I tested flashing with flashtool 0.9.9.0 in a windows 8 VM, the driver appear to be installed and it attempted to flash, but the phone would disconnect before it could flash. I think the reason for that is the VM.
On my VM i have smartscreen and UAC turned off
the drivers i used are in my previous post
I can confirm drivers are not working anymore on Windows 8....:crying:
to continue with my last post I think the reason people are having problems is USER ERROR and not they are not willing to try and fix it them self.
i installed flash tool and the drivers on windows 8 32 bit without any problem or errors or pop up security screens the only screen i got was the driver not verified by windows crap and just installed it anyway and worked fine...if u just want to flash your phone just install the flashmode and fastboot drivers dont worry about the xperia play driver...and dont forget to disable your antivirus

I had a similar problem the other day while working on getting my r800at's fastboot to be identified in Flashtool. I did the same as you, regarding trying to install the Xperia Drivers from the flashtool app itself, but it didn't work.
What I did to successfully install drivers was use SuperOneClick. There should be an option in the Advanced Tab to "Check Drivers", and since it won't find any, it'll ask if you want it to forcibly install the drivers. Allow it to, and it should immediately have working drivers. This worked on a Windows 7 64-bit OS, I'm unsure of how it'll pan out with W8, but good luck.
I'm running win8 too, in the flashtool folder in the C: drive, there should be a drivers folder, just run the installer that's in there. make sure the android SDK is installed first. Did you install android SDK?
I'm trying to return to stock using RUU. The OS I'm on is Windows 7 and 8 (multiple computers)
The problem is after double clicking on the RUU nothing comes out (in Windows 8).
Or there's an error message: "installscript setup launcher has stopped working" (in Windows 7).
Went into temp folder and doesn't see any rom.zip and files.
Has anyone else ran into this problem before?
try right click and run as admin.

Did that already, I was running the RUU under administrator profile.
Same problem
Got the same problem. Any help? Tried it on 1 Win8 machine and 3 Win7 machines.
Try Disabling Antivirus/Firewall, then run as administrator ?
Re-download the RUU.....If you don't get to the main installer screen of the ruu its a bad download !
