Hi all
I did not receive the OTA so I decided to manually update my nexus s (I9020XXK1)
Unfortunately the navigation works only on wi-fi. Although the data navigation is turned on the mobile does not download email etc.
I thought it was a problem with widgetsoid and I disinstalled it but the problem is still there.
I also tried to update the APN via "APN Italiani" but the programs shows the generic message that "he encountered an error"
My question: do you have any idea how to work it out? and also: is there a program similar to widgetsoid for a dummy (me)?
thanks a lot

just flash a customer rom like aosp + (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397358) -> all works
it would be even worst! I already tried but I'm a dummy and couldn't do it
at home I have a mac and could not get a propor procedure. now (at work) I have a pc but no administrator rights.
if there is an easy way to do it then I will give it a try but I would need a "guide for dummies"

What rom you using??
Custom or stock??
Will be able to help you better!!
I had the same problem. Fixed it with a reinstallation of drivers.
1. Go to Control Panel>All Control Panel Items>System
2. Select Device Manager
3. Expand Portable Devices. You should see you GT-N7000 listed there.
4. Right-click on that and select uninstall.
5. Unplug you device from usb, wait a moment and re-connect.
Windows will now detect it as a new device and install the drivers. Let it do its work and you should now have your folders visible under the MTP device browser.
It Worked!

Thank You so much.
I struggled for days but was not able to find the correct solution. This simple thing worked, And now Kies working too!
By the way I am on Samsung S Plus GT-I9001 and OS is Win XP 64 bit prof edition.
Earlier Instead of GT-I9001, just MTP was visible in device manager. I uninstalled it, connected the phone again and then it was showing GT-I9001. My computer also showing same name folder with everything accessible and Kies working too now.
Please note that Kies is also working on a machine with Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate without any issue. So Kies is not to blame. This is for all those who like me used to think samsung had made such a bad software.
Thx mate I had the same pb with my SG3.. Now it works fine !!!
Just to complete : if on windows XP you don't even see your mtp device it's because you need at least windows media player 10 or 11
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol
Windows 7
Make sure that you do not remove "Windows Media Center" feature under Programs and Features in Control Panel on Windows 7. It will cause MTP to show up as empty!

Go to "port settings" and select all 16 ports.
View attachment 1784756
Start the upgrade clicking in the yellow arrow on the top/left of the program window.
Three (3) ports will look like comunicating (in the next image you'll see only two cause I'm not really flashing), but
only one is the right one. Two of them will stay stucked in x% and a third port will go higher. Memorize the one that goes higher cause is that one.
In my case, this time was the nr. 3.
View attachment 1784757
Close the program and re-start it. This time, go to "port settings" and select only the port that you memorized,
start the upgrade and you just need to wait for the phone to reboot.
In case of that port fails, choose one of the other two untill you hit the good one.
If you don't see 3 ports, its something wrong and probably this won't work...
Easy
To set manually the port to "1", connect the phone in S/W Mode, open windows "Device Manager",
select “LGE CDMA USB Serial Port”, right click in "properties", connection settings advanced and set it to “com41″
Video added:
(select full screen and 1080p for better resolution)
Report if something doesn't work
This post was edited cause I realise that is not always the first port the right one, sorry...

Hello,
I wanted to root my new Sony Xperia T and I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460.
However I needed to install the ADB drivers and I am having extreme difficulties in doing so. From my limited knowledge on the subject I guessed that the ADB drivers are installed when I plug my phone into my computer. When I plugged my phone in windows installed two drivers. When I then went into device manager to see if my phone was registered as an android device but it wasn't. It was instead listed as a portable device. I also tried running
Code:
adb devices
but this ended up with an empty list. Despite this my phone appears in My Computer and I can transfer files to and from it easily.
After looking on the internet for a while I found I needed a few things installed. So I removed the drivers, installed the Android SDK with SDK-tools and the Sony PC companion as well as turn my phone to USB debugging. I then retried windows installed the same two drivers and it again was listed as a portable device.
I looked up this issue and found suggestions to restart the SDK-tools ADB server, restart my phone, update drivers, unlock my phone and install PDaNet. These all ended with the same result. I also found a suggestion to update the drivers by going into the Android SDK and using the driver in there. This didn't work though as Windows said the current version of the driver is the most up to date. I tried various techniques suggested to get around this but I was unable to.
Any help on how to install these drivers is greatly appreciated. My phone is about a month old, unrooted, Sony Xperia T (LT30p). My computer runs Windows 7 Professional 64bit.
Thanks,
JamesStewy
(I may have forgotten some of the things I tried to get it to work yesterday so please suggest anything )

Flashtool is THE tool for use with xperia devices. Look in the first thread of the development section.
It should be the first thing you download when you get an xperia device.

The way I did it was to plug the phone in, wait till the automatic driver installation failed, and then in the device manager I selected the phone and went thru the "update drivers" procedure. You must select the specific folder where that driver is, not the parent, or windows won't detect it. In my case that folder is named
C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\Sony PC Companion\Drivers\{2CD1390C-A74E-434A-B652-73D3683B3BEF}
which is quite a weird name; just look for the folder with sa0105* drivers inside, and that's the one.
By the way, I never had a "WPD composite device". This is how it is shown now in device manager:

¿Could it be that you have two phones detected?, as my pc only shows "Xperia T", no trace of "LT30p"; and the adb driver is in a category of its own.
I have no idea. I only have one thing connected to my computer which is my phone. I don't have an adb, Sony or android node in device manager at all.
JamesStewy
I don't know what else to tell you then. You might try uninstalling the LT30p, and forcing the upgrade to the pccompanion drivers I talked about before. But this is a wild guess, I can't really help you any further.
It's your adb installation correct. Have your added it to the path in environment.
Do you have usb debugging on in settings on your phone.
What was the error when you installed the flash tool drivers
What dies flash tool say when you attach the phone whilst it is open.
As the post above says, you could uninstall all phone/Sony/adb software and drivers and re install them.
I have never heard of this issue and just installing flash tool and/or pccompanion is enough to install all the drivers

As simple as that.
On your phone (unpluged) - Settings / Xperia / USB Connectivity / USB Connection Mode - and select MASS Storage, not MTP. I did uncheck Install PC Companion. Plug USB back, put your phone in debugging mode - It work right away. No need to Update drivers, no need to change the android_winusb.inf. You may need to kill adb.exe before trying again adb devices.
That was it for me
Hi laplada27,
Thanks for your reply. When I get home today I will give that a go.

Installing drivers 8.1
I am trying currently to update my T, it has an unlocked bl that I did when I first got it in Dec 12.
I am running w8.1 64 bit.
Tried both mass storage mode & mtp mode.
I have the latest 64 bit version of flashtool installed.
I am trying to flash the 295 generic ce ftf android 4.3 update, no problems with the ftf itself.
The error flashtool spits out is that the drivers are not installed, either the adb or flashmode drivers.
I have repeatedly tried to install the drivers that come with flashtool, and it appears that they install, but
there are a few that won't, I think namely the above.
I note that when I have device manager open, it detects the T, when plugged in in flashmode (i.e. turned off, with volume down)
as an s1boot device. I have intercepted device manager several times when it does this, in order to try and update the drivers
by hand, but no luck.
When I first plugged the T in in flashmode mode, it installed some drivers automatically, however, not ones that will allow flashtool
to work.
In truth I am now scratching my head as to what to do next.
I never had any problems with w7 64 ultimate flashing the T, solid as a rock, all the drivers would install as required, and I am
thinking the easiest way to update my T would be to use a w7 based machine, however, if anyone has any more ideas as to
what might help me flash it using 8.1 then I would be very grateful to hear them.

I think there is a patch for Windows 8.1... Search the forum and you will find it.
Good luck!
Hi!
I cannot find ADB Drivers for Xperia SP (need them to root the phone )
Can someone provide a link to download them?
thanks!
Are you on 64bit Windows 8?
Coz I faced the same problem.
But then I tried rooting on a Windows 7 pc. And Windows automatically installed the correct drivers. Seems that adb isn't supported on 64bit Windows 8.

Connect your Xperia SP via USB. (Don't forget to enable USB Debugging)
Then run the Software (http://adbdriver.com/downloads/) and choose ur phone, which should be listed in the list.

Normally drivers are being installed when you first connect your phone to the PC

If you get error(mostly on windows 8/8.1) while installing driver; then you have to Disable Driver Signature Enforcement and give another try.
To Disable Driver Signature Enforcement:
1) Move the mouse pointer to the BOTTOM RIGHT of the screen and go to SETTINGS.
2) Click CHANGE PC SETTINGS
3) Choose GENERAL from the left side and under Advanced Startup click on RESTART NOW
4) Your PC will restart and you will see some options.
5) Select TROUBLESHOOT > ADVANCED OPTIONS > STARTUP SETTINGS > RESTART
6) Select Disable Driver Signature Enforcement and your PC will boot.
Now install driver using above given link.
