So.. I'm using CM7 at the moment, and I have changed my build.prop from LT15i to LT18i.
STILL it says 'LT15i' on PC Companion when I connect the phone to my computer.
Anyone know how to change this?
Its just a silly thing, but it annoys me quite a bit.
Did you change every occurrence of LT15i to LT18i ?
Yes. Replaced ~8 LT15i's. The marketplace and all the apps knows I'm using a LT18i, its just the PC Companion that still sees it as a LT15i.
Maybe you've to uninstall the PCC on your computer.
Then activate Install PC Companion in Settings - Sony Ericsson - Connectivity settings.
After that connect your phone with your PC and install PCC again with the upcoming prompt.

Just tried it. Still says LT15 when connecting the phone to the computer
Hi everybody,
When I connect my SE Arc S (Lt18a) to PC with W7 (32-bit), I just can see lt18a in device manager, but I cannot see SEMC HSUSB Device. It's really curiously, because all people write that Devise manager in windows shows SEMC HSUSB device, my Windows doesn't!!! and another PCs with both W7 and XP don't recognize phone as SEMCHSUSB device. Why? Should I turn on some mode on Arc S (for instance USB Diag mode)? And if yes, how can I do it? Actually, I've got Qualcomm drivers for SEMC HSUSB device and I want to connect my ArcS to Nemo Outdoor drive test tool, so I need to see modem and trace ports (COM pots). Android version 4.0

Hi,
Yes, I installed PC companion. Actually, phone is working, I just couldn't see SEMC HSUSB Device, when first time connected. So, how do you relate PC companion to that issue? What was exactly your problem?

I probably got your point. So, once again, my phone Arc S is working. I installed PC companion and got it working, but problem is when I connect to PC first time, Device manager detected it as lt18a, but I need get "SEMC HSUSB Device". By other words, I want to get COM port of the AR S modem in device manager in order to control phone by some third part program.

COM ports are not used by newer phones anymore.

Ports just "hidden" and Windows cannot see it. From user perspective network adapter is enough to connect to internet. Set USB in tethering mode and that's it. I agree with you. But for some particular tasks, serial ports and modem are required and must be recognized in device manager. There is should be some way to enable USB modem diag mode or something else, like it's done in GALAXY S2,S3. But no info about Arc S in i-net!!!

go to your flashtool folder(where u have installed flashtool)
usually c/flashtool
in folder open drivers
in it u will find flashtool drivers
click it select xperia arc/s......
scroll down and select flashtool and fastboot drivers click ok and its done
hit thnxxx if it helped
Na, there are no "Xperia Arc S-Driver", only Xperia Arc
Every time driver installation failed
Arc and arc S drivers are the same.
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
I got the drivers installed, but when i connect my Arc S to my computer, the computer doesnt see it. Fastboot or flashmode or normal mode, my computer does not noticed the phone. Thats strange....
Install drivers from "C:\Flashtool\drivers\Flashtool-drivers.exe"
Select "Sony Ericsson Xperia arc, Xperia neo, Xperia PLAY, Xperia acro IS11S, Xperia acro SO-02C driver"
"Flashmode Drivers"
"Fastboot Drivers"
Have problem to flash lacking of "loader_unlocked.sin"
Go to "C:\Flashtool\devices\R800" copy "loader_unlocked.sin" to your model folder fot example: "C:\Flashtool\devices\LT15"
~~!!!~~
Before flashing, never turn on your phone, and connect to your PC.
Until the sign call you to connect it
Hope this can help you
my phone it's not connect in any computer or device but you can charging fully
