HELP NEEDED - Having issues with pc connection/downloadmode/recoverymode - Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers

Device Name: Sony Xperia XA2
Device ID: H3113
Internal Storage: 32 GB
Software Version: Android 8.0.0
What i want to do: Install LineageOS 19.1 on the phone.
How far i got: I'f been trying to follow the instructions here https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pioneer/install
However after 2 hours and no progress i decided to ask on XDA...
On the PC i installed platform-tools_r33.0.2 for windows and UniversalAdbDriverSetup
Then i added this path %USERPROFILE%\adb-fastboot\platform-tools to "Environment Variables"
On the Phone i have USB Debugging Enabled also OEM and Bootloader are both unlocked.
I am ready to install LineageOS however when i connect the Phone to the PC and check device manager there is a yellow marker, something is not right.
The Phone asked me what shall be transfered and i selected data, still the PC doesnt seem to "like" the phone.
I have installed LineageOS on a samsung device before and there only difference i can spot now is that for samsung i installed usb drivers on the pc, however for sony i cannot find usb drivers for the Xperia XA2. Do i need these and where do i get them??
I have noticed another "issue" when i try to boot the phone in recovery by pressing Volume Down + Power, the phone vibrates once and the screen goes on fully white with the sony logo.
After that nothing happens i continue to press Volume Down + Power and everything repeats, phone reboots, vibrates once and shows sony logo, this will go forever untill i stop pressing Volume Down + Power and the Phone now boots normally to system. It seems i cannot boot into recoverymode?
The phone is acting wired, when i press Volume Up and connect it to the usb/power cable sometimes it does nothing and shows the battery % while sometimes it boots to system and sometimes i managed to get into download/fastboot mode where ican see a blue light but the screen remains off.
I was going to install TWRP with ADB but since the phone isn't showing on the PC i cannot continue, i have no idea what to do... cant be so hard can it? So many people flashed lineage on this phone so there really should be a way... i hope someone can help!

Hi, I believe I have the same issue.
When pressing "volume up" (for bootloader) while connecting the USB cable I get an "Android" device without driver. I've tried several drivers without result. Emma sees the phone (but gives "device locked"), Windows sees the phone, adb sees the phone, but when in bootloader... no result.
Any assistance is welcome.

You have to know how your device is presenting: ABD? Fastboot? Bootloader?
You need to look in Device Manager and identify devices that are not happy.
Try to install a stock driver. If you can't, then identify the VID/PID of the device.
You may need to make a copy of the stock Google .inf file and make new entries for your device.
Then you can try to install that, although you'll have to use the procedure for unsigned drivers.
In any case, if things are not going right, don't bother with long adb or fastboot commands. Just try.
Code:
C:\>adb devices
...
C:\>fastboot devices
...

Thanks for the reply,
While stock android is started
ADB gives:
List of devices attached
CQ3001ERRN device
Fastboot devices: No result
Reboot phone in flash mode (Volume down): Emma recognizes phone(but locked)
Reboot phone in recovery (Volume up): Unknown Android device.
When trying to install the Google driver (or any other related) I just get: could not find the driver for your device. In my view this has nothing to do with unsigned (message is different).
Uninstalling "Android" and re-installing it, does not help, picking it out of the list of available drivers does not help.
"You may need to make a copy of the stock Google .inf file and make new entries for your device."
How would one proceed with this, keeping in mind that when the phone is booted using stock ROM it is fully recognized as a Xperia XA2?
Any advice is welcome

A device needs drivers for every single different mode that it can be in.
For the thing that you can't load drivers on, you need to get the VID/PID and if there is an MI.
Just go to DeviceManager > MysteryDevice > Properties > Details > Device instance path
From DM it's not possible to see if this is ADB or Fastboot but the driver is the same.
Copy over the Google .inf file to your own.
Add what you found in DM to look just like the others.
Note that you need to enter the same line twice in the NTx86 and NTamd64 sections.
When you try to install a driver using your .inf it will obviously be unsigned.
Do the restart PC with allow unsigned and install.

@Renate You have made me a happy man.
I'm looking at a Xperia with LineageOS running smoothly
Thank you for your instructions

[Q] Unlocking bootloader - Xperia S does not stay in fastboot mode

Hey guys!
I'm trying to unlock boot loader on my Xperia S.
I tried the official way - via Sony Development site but I get stuck on the step where you have to connect the phone and push Volume Up button. Problem is that the phone enters the fastboot mode for 5 seconds, but then shows the battery charging logo and it 'quits' the fastboot mode.
Also, when the phone enters the fastboot mode, I should be asked for a driver, but I'm not.

Later I tried using the fastboot tool, found here, but the instructions aren't clear, because it seems that the new version is slightly different as the older one. Anyways, when I want to fastboot it (labeled with B) it enters the fastboot mode for 5 seconds, then the phone turns on again.
The problem is your windows system doesn't have the right fastboot usb drivers installed for your device. If those are not detected it will leave fastboot.
I can't help you with how to get those installed fully. But i think I ended up manually updating a hidden device in device manager. I think it stays around there as a disconnected device which you can update.
Hope this at least points you in the right direction.

I can also confirm I did something similar on my Win7 64x - had to manually force some drivers for the fastboot mode.
From A to Z, please
Okay guys,
first of all, thank you!
Ok, let me explain:
1. what I want: get rid of sony's firmware and flash CyanogenMod11
2. phone: Xperia S, my current firmware: 6.2.B.1.96, (still) locked bootloader , no CWM, no root access, SONY PC companion installed
3. I'm following this tutorial: http://www.androidhogger.com/how-to-install-cyanogenmod-11-android-4-4-xperia-s.html
4. I stuck when it comes to root xperia s http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/xperia-s-lt26i-root-android412-jellybean-ota-501291, but this tutorial says I have to unlock bootloader before. Well okay.
5. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447319
I DID everything as said in instructions till the 10th step, but then the ******* phone does not stay in Fastboot mode. My computer installs (apparently) some random drivers -> it does not ask me what I want to do, 'because the driver wasn't installed successfully'., so I can not point to the usb_driver folder.
I tried updating the driver through the Device manager where 'S1 Boot Fastboot' shows when I enter the fastboot mode, but can't finish because the phone quits fastboot and the SONY's logo apperas before I manage to do anything.
I also installed alternate driver pack (link in DooMLoRD's tutorial), but it doesn't change anything.
That's it, guys. I REALLY hope you can help me, because I can't stand the official firware anymoreeeee. I know you rock the stage of phones
Cheers!

Sprint LG G2 Brick - Not showing in device manager - Download mode working!

Hey guys, my friend recently bought an LG G2 on Sprint, but switched carriers to T-Mobile. He rooted his phone successfully, and tried to install custom recovery but downloaded some app that screwed up his phone (not completely sure what happened... he told me he installed a flashing app that flashed recovery but long story short, his phone is in a boot loop.) I can access download mode, and fastboot. When I connect the phone to the computer, my Windows 8.1 Laptop, nothing pops up. I already installed ADB and Fastboot, and when I put the phone into fastboot mode and plug it into the computer, it is recognized but keeps saying "oops!" connection to USB failed trying again.... fastboot ready! etc. etc. I installed the LG Flash tool but the computer won't recognize my device in device manager! I'm really frustrated why it won't recognize it. It shows nothing except ACER Fastboot Device. I just want it to recognize it in download mode so i can flash it back to stock with the LG Flash tool.
Pls halp.
I had to download lg universal drivers for my laptop to recognize my phone in download mode give that a try
im in the same boat as the op. i have tried to install various drivers. im able to get into download mode but no communication with the comp. i try going to recovery but it is gonna and i see some type of fastboot. unsure where to go from here...
This is exactly what i did
Www.rwilco12.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=96
My phone wasnt recognized by laptop until i was in download mode with flash tool running
not finding the ports under device manager anywhere.
Hi

P.S. I have another G2 with normal running android. This G2 has normaly recognized in device manager. So problem not in cable or usb port's.

does the computer make a noise when you plug in the device? Also are you sure your in download mode ? (not just the dots) If you have just the dots, then go info fastboot mode and flash both the boot.img and laf.img then reboot into download mode and see if it works
I just put my g2 in download mode and pluged her up. in device manager it poped up under lge android modem, in the modem section of device manager.
Look there first. Then you will have to change the port to 41 so the flash tool will work
If you have qpst it will Tell you what port

what i had to do when this happened to me, was swap out the device at sprint (had insurance), without insurance you can swap it for $75ish plus tax or if its still under warranty, go through LG

Blinking teamwin-screen - can't get access with ADB

Hey,
after flashing Omni-Re ROM my p6 is stuck in a loop. Entering TWRP it stucks on the blinking teamwin screen, booting it normally, it stucks on the boot-logo.
While hanging on teamwin i cannot get connection with ADB.
While hanging on boot-logo "adb devices" shows me either "unauthorized" ord "offline"
I tried fastboot recovery twrp.img - without success.
Is there any chance to reflash the recovery?
PS: windows device manager shows me either an "Alcatel ADB Device" (while stucking on TW) or "Android Adapter ADB Interface" (while on boot-logo).
I tried, installed, uninstalled all huawei drivers i could find on the web - it's frustrating...
Mates, any help strongly appreciated
Thank you so much,
Grobie

can you go inside twrp and set something?
maybe you could load a different custom rom (as zip-file) through adb-sideload feature inside twrp..

If only I could...
No, i cannot - that's the issue. Entering Recovery is not possible, as the phone stucks on the TWRP logo.
Grüsse,

Boot logo means fastboot mode not adb. Thats why adb commands dont work there. Try detecting it with "fastboot devices" command. If it shows up you can try to flash a rexovery.

Tried that, without success. fastboot devices shows nothing.

Get HiSuite and while in fastboot mode try to run it.

I installed HiSuite hundreds of times already. Allways the same result.
How do I get into fastboot mode?
Powering on the phone while holding volume down button too.

Power + Vol down boots into bootloop. It just shows the boot logo.
Power + both vol buttons enters recovery, but stucks on blinking teamwin logo - as described above.

At huawei devices being stuck on boot logo doesnt mean its in a bootloop. That is actually the way huawei made it to recognise if its in fastboot mode or not. Unless it restarts all the time, like in boot logo shows up and then disapears soon after and so on.
Sent from my SM-G850F
So that means it could be in fastboot mode anyway? I will check that out.
Which drivers do you recommend to install for the P6 under Win7? Just HiSuite or additional ones?
Exactly. As for the drivers hisuite should be enough even though win 7 can find drivers online too. And if after installing them it doesnt work the it may need a restart on the pc before it can recognise the device. And if it does with "fastboot devices" command you should be able to see the phone. It will be in some question marks and other signs but thats ok.
Sent from my SM-G850F
Does the p6 show some "fastboot" logo or sth. like that or just the boot logo?
My Redmi Note shows "fastboot" with a nice logo.
Nothing like that just the logo.
Sent from my SM-G850F
What does your Win device manager show when you connect your p6 in fastboot mode?
I re-installed HiSuite. Just HiSuite, no additional drivers. The phone is now showed as a Android Phone ->
Android Adapter ADB Interface. So far, so good.
adb devices shows the the phone, but "unauthorized". I googeled that issue. Most guys solved it by checking or unchecking USB debugging... But that's no way here, as there is no more OS installed and entering TWRP also doesn't work.
So - what else can i do? How can i authorize the p6 (or the PC) to be able to work with adb/fastboot?
desperately,
Grobie
Okay Fellas, didn't solve the problem yet, but at least - now I know WHAT THE PROBLEM IS
I can boot the phone into fastmode. fastboot or adb -devices shows the phone.
BUT: it's unauthorized
So, how do I manage to skip that authorization? I just need to reflash TWRP... the rest ist "kindergarden"
Pls...
Try to flash stock rom. It might get you up and running from there.

[Fixed] I hard bricked my Vibe P1

Dear developers!
After successfully flashing and upgrading a friend's Samsung, I got the courage to do the same with my Lenovo Vibe P1.
I followed this video and everything was perfectly: I unlocked the bootloader, connected using QFIL and flashed the TWRP recovery he provided, until the 8:00 minute in the video the program said "Waiting for reset done..." and my QFIL just stucked on that message, so after waiting 5-7 minutes I disconnected the cable in hope that it will reboot to recovery, got some log errors and since then the phone is hard bricked.
Turning on does not work, recovery/bootloader/charging does not work, essentially the screen is dead, the only thing that works is recognization in QFIL program.
When I try to flash stock rom or that recovery from that video again, it first says a protocol error:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I try to Download again, now it gets stuck at the Working folder (last message in the log, see below)
EDIT: Depending on the QFIL version, the version below actually gives the same error as above after few minutes.
In addition, any attempt to connect the phone to Windows using USB results in numerous partitions being shown from the phone internal memory (many of which Windows does not recognize as formatted):
(https://i.imgur.com/otd7e0M.png)
Is there anything that could be done to recover my phone please? Not having the right financial situation to purchase a new one and school starts soon so pretty bad situation for me now.
Kind regards,
kangarko
Update! I deleted all partitions from the phone and was successfully able to flash a couple of ROMs from the Internet (including a stock one). However, after each flash one, I get the "Waiting for reset done..." message and than the phone gets disconnected from my Fusion (virtual Windows 7 in Mac), and when it gets connected again it says Finished but the phone is completely black. No signs of any activity, it does not restart itself nor vibrates, and I end up with the problem in my first post again ;(
Help still needed... noticed I typed "Lenovo" in the thread title instead of Vibe, I corrected that but the PHONE IS STILL BROKEN.
Alright, got it solved somehow.
Flashed "P1a42_S272_160506_ROW_QPST" using QFIL 2.0.0.3 and Lenovo usb drivers v1.1.33 + Qualcomm drivers 1.0.
Newer QFIL versions are disfunctional over my device.
Always make sure to hold Power button for 13 seconds to make sure the device is OFF, then connect to QFIL. After it finishes the flashing process, simply disconnect and hold Volume UP button + Power button for 13 seconds and than again to make it boot.
You can find some useful stuff here (including TWRP):

[STOCK ROM] [QFIL] [GUIDE] Stock CyanogenOS 13.1 for QFIL + Unbrick from 900E/9008

Hey XDA!
I found somewhere in web stock rom for QFIL, that you can flash when your phone is hard bricked (like mine was) or when you want to remove Add-X for free. Here are the downloads:
Qualcomm 64Bit drivers
Full Qualcomm flashing suite
QFIL image
My mirror of QFIL image (use when AndroidFileHost is slow for you)
Here are the steps to flash it:
1. If your phone is in 900E mode and you can't reboot to 9008, get a spare USB type C cable or microUSB to USB-C adapter.
1a. If your phone can boot into 9008 mode without problems by holding all 3 buttons, go to step 5.
2. Now you must cut your cable like this (image credit: [email protected] from MIUI forums)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Burn plastic on green and black cable
Something like that:
4. Now when your phone is fully turned off (you can get back cover off and disconnect battery), connect cable to your pc, short green and black cables together and connect it to your phone. After about 10 seconds separate the wires. Now your phone will boot into 9008 (aka EDL) mode. If you will get Unrecognized USB device prompt, connect battery when phone is turned on into 9008, detach EDL cable and connect normal cable.
5. Launch QFIL and set it like that:
6. Click "Download" and wait until finish. If QFIL will error with "system.img/cache.img/userdata.img not found" create empty files named "system.img", "userdata.img" and "cache.img" in stock rom folder.
7. When QFIL will finish flashing, hold power button in your Swift 2. It should boot to system now. If not, try to flash TWRP/Stock rom via fastboot, doing factory reset in Cyanogen Recovery or "fastboot format userdata".

I see your point about duplicate but I guess you could say @puszekkkkk added photos and info on kicking into 9008 ...your guide was the inspiration or first but both guides are useful to people ...hopefully i won't need either but neat trick with spare usb to get into qfil mode
This destroyed my computer :'-(
I'm sad/frustrated to report that I attempted to follow this guide and completely destroyed my desktop computer in the process! ? I made the cable exactly as instructed and made sure everything was carefully wired with nothing touching anything it wasn't supposed to. I tried repeatedly to get my ZTE device to boot into EDL mode but it simply would not. And then, when I was trying once again, holding the green and black wires together for a few seconds, I suddenly noticed an electrical burning smell. Looking at my beloved little mini-desktop PC, I noticed a very bright orange-yellow piercing light coming from within and then realized this was a flame!! ? I quickly unplugged the PC and ripped the case off, and then blew out the small flame that had started to burn a specific chip on my motherboard. I think this chip must have something to do with USB-port power supply/support. It's a very specific chip and not one I can find online to purchase to repair/re-solder myself. My device is four years old now and is unfortunately out of warranty. I called the tech support center for my device anyway (ASUS) to see if they could do anything, and also wanted to inform them that their product had caught on fire, but they just took my information and said they were sorry but that they couldn't help me with this at all.
So now I am without my main desktop PC. ???
And my stupid ZTE device is still a useless paperweight... ?
