[Help] Xperia S adb problem - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi,
I have a new xperia S and I'm not able to connect adb debuging.
I have Xperia u20 and sk17i and never had this problem, I tried many drivers but don't manage to get this working.
Tips are more than welcome, thanks

Did you try this driver? http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-s-driver-for-ics/
Maybe it will work.

Thanks, I tried.
The phone it's new and I wanted to have root on it but without this I'm not able. Is it necessary change from MTP mode? Because I'm not able to change mode.
I'm not using sim card in the phone, I suppose it doesn't matter, I don't have micro sim yet.
My minipro appears when I type "adb device"
Edit:
Solved my problem: 2 drivers in the computer, Lt26i and Sony ADB, I was fighting with Sony ADB because the first one was working correctly with PC companion. The solution was to force Lt26i driver to be reinstalled with a manually chosen driver (the one you proposed) and Sony ADB just installed correctly, finaly I have root!
If necessary delete this

What rom and kernel do you use? Try to connect when you have usb-debugging enabled (I've had the same problem with stock rom)

I have found a way to connect my phone with the PC using "MyPhoneExplorer"
but still i cant connect it with my PC companion.
I must have messed up my phone's drivers.
So do you have any suggestions to help me connect with the PCcompanion..??
Device manager, connect the phone, if you find a device with yellow triangle, delete the drivers, restart, reconnect

Root Without Fastboot

Right, problem is, my PC has finally decided to stop doing what what it's supposed to. More specifically, it doesn't put my phone in fastboot mode anymore.
My question is, how do I root on the latest GB firmware? If I root on when .42 firmware, can I flash the .64 firmware while unticking the kernel option? Is that where root is?
I can usually do stuff without asking questions, but this problem is quite specific and couldn't find an answer Google-ing.

Flash the rootxperia.zip in recovery. Then, uninstall superuser and install a newer version of it from google play/market. Press thanks if I helped.
Note: This can be used on any Gingerbread firmware. Also, root will not carry over if you use flashtool.
Can I flash the .64 firmware then flash that?

No No no! Root Does Not make Fastboot work, fastboot is Enabled only on Generic or Devices That have had a SEMCBoot Patch. Your PC is not the Problem Its your Device or Just you.

Sounds like a USB cable problem, or maybe a USB port problem.

It's a USB port problem.
I was using the dsixda kitchen when my computer switched itself off. I tried the same thing and it switched off at exactly the same point. Ever since then my main USB port stopped working (it was working minutes before). I can't get the drivers for fastboot installed on the other USB port.

I was just about to flash .62 firmware, when I had a thought. How do I get recovery installed without root? Will the auto installer from the market work, or does that need root?

no regardless you need root which is just a simple click you can't get CWM without it the auto staller will not work if you do not have root because it needs su permission
The only way to get root on the .62 firmware with a locked bootloader is to flash .42 and then flash the .62 firmware .zip file which is buried somewhere in android development. Since you can't flash a custom kernel(which root your rom anyways) you can't get into recovery on .62 as installing recovery requires root.
My bootloader is unlocked.
Sounds like a catch 22 situation.
I'll just stick with what I'm on now and wait for an ICS FTF.

It's not a big enough problem to get everything set up on somebody else's computer.
Does anybody know what the driver is called? Maybe I'm going to the wrong folder when trying to manually update it.
Also, when I uninstall the drivers, I get the S1 Boot (or whatever it's called) thing installed but that changes to something like SEMCflash. Is that supposed to happen? Because I read that you need update the S1 one, which disappears/gets replaced.
Sent from my R800i using XDA
If you root it, then OTA, you keep root. Only problem is you can't OTA with an unlocked bootloader.
Try with a different PC?
The drivers are on the Sony unlock site.
I can't install the drivers because the S1boot thing changes to SEMCflash. I get told that it contains no info about my phone or it can't find a better match.

You should be able to override Windows:
Update Driver Software -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer -> Have disk

I've tried that, that's when I get the messages. When I choose the driver file it says it doesn't contain any information about my device.
I did the same thing with my other USB port and it worked fine til it broke. So why it wont work I have no idea. I still don't know how cooking a ROM can break a USB card.

Don't worry, my phone will be safe.
My PC is useless, I only use it to do phone stuff so, if it can't do that, I may as well have a bit of therapeutic destruction.

Bootloader is different than getting ics. If I remember correct if bootloader is unlocked, Sony pcc or update service will not work. You sure your still locked?
Does flashtool find your phone? If not try there drivers.
Sounds stupid but you did reboot after installing pcc / Seus?

Ya I rebooted million the bootloader is definetly locked I was just wondering about that because it's not updating so I was thinking about just rooting and flashing ics but I hate how it deletes all ure stuff.

If you unlocked your bootloader you have to go back to 100% stock gb then update.

Tried it but everytime I enter flashmode on my device it will try to install a driver and then it will say the device has disconnected and the battery charging thing pops up then the driver fails to install happens on Sus seus flashtool everything sooooo annoyiiing
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
Did you let the flash driver load before you tried flashing?? If you connect the device in flashmode and let the driver install in Windows then unplug the device. It should now work.
That's the problem tho the driver will not install I went to the Sony store and it worked fine on his computer. I'm gonna try again later because I'd like to root my phone

You can try installing android sdk to get drivers for ADB. You can try the old way to root using ADB not flashtool. Just use the ftf of your choice for ics.

This sounds more like a problem with your particular PC, than with the phone itself...
update wasn't available so i flashed with flashtool on a GB LT28AT. Got absolutely no where for several hours. No matter what i tried, flashtool refused to recognize the phone. I had tried before installing companion, after installing, after uninstalling...installing stock mass storage drivers...holding down and plugging the phone in while flash tool was installed...while it wasn't installed...installing some of the flashtool drivers (of which the ion was never a phone listed), installing all of the flashtool drivers, uninstalling all drivers, rolling back windows, installing some drivers from flashtool...that weren't quite what i had installed before..........etc...
then magically...I'm just sitting there with flashtool open at its log box. I plugged the phone in...again...while holding down volume key, and i get a notice that 'S1 Boot Driver successfully installed'. press the lightning bolt expecting the same result...90 seconds later my phone boot up with the ICS welcome screen...how i got that S1 boot thing to initiate? your guess is as good as mine, but its definitely key for getting a windows PC to flash an lt28.
Something must be blocking it question is what lol I have gotten a notice about that too it says something may be blocking it or the driver has no devices associated with it

There are a few things you must do
1. You must install flashmode and fastboot drivers
2.you must select xperia play as current device
3. Reboot into fastboot via ADB
4. Once booted into fastboot mode, click on select kernel to flash.

Update your version of flashtool uninstall the drivers from device manager. Reinstall never androxide flastool reinstall drivers make sure debugging is enabled. Then you should he good to go. If it don't work that means you need a new micro USB cable..
