It may be in your flashtools folder
Go to flashtools installation folder/drivers now u should see it... & its the right one
- maybe you should plug while your device is turned on?+usb debugging enabled (don't laugh! I just can't remember it)

Do you have PC Companion? It should have necessary drivers for the phone and also install gordon's gate from the setup file in the drivers folder.If its not working then search the web for it you will get the latest drivers for download.

Sorry, I didn't unlocked with cmd & never used it.
I had problem with recognizing my device too ,Gordons gate solved my issue
I simply used flash tools & unlocked by clicking some buttons (& s1tools for making sure its unlockable)

Try different method then. Use flash tool

[Q] Little help needed :) [FIXED] thanks :)

Hey guys.. it's me again..
With a little question..
i've searched for a solution and i found nothin unfortunately ..
Maybe it's me .. i don't know ..
Anywhore..
couple of months ago i unlocked the bootloader.. and i flashed A kernel ..
and did that over and over again.. last week .. i flashed Alfs.. i had some problems and bricks but i went through em easily thanks for Paul1989
But now.. i'm trying to flash nAa 08b ..
and unfortunately the flasher won't detect the phone ..
i know how to flash as i said before ..
i tried to do it on another laptop ... but nah ..
same problem ..
won't detect the phone ..
so i'm stuck at: connect the usb while holding the back button..
That's it ..
Hope u guys have some ideas ..
Thanks..
Cheers :
EDIT: i had a Problem with mounting the Phone to the pc.. but i solved it by installing the "Void" fix .. cause i have *alfs*
after that .. i could mount the phone..
so i thought now i can flash it ..
but .. NAH .. again .. it did NOT detect the phone :/

nAa Kernel?
Well... let us try to diagnose the horse the other way around ...
When you connect the X8 in Flash Mode does Windows show the device as "SEMC Flash Device" in the Device Manager OR is it some "SEMC HSUSB Device" without a driver (yellow exclamation mark) OR isn't it recognized at all?
- If it's correctly recognized as SEMC Flash Device then Flashtool should be able to recognize the phone (assuming you're doing everything right).
- If it's mis-identified as "SEMC HSUSB Device" look around in the Forums - there's a modded Android driver that resolves this problem (this happens with one of the custom kernels ... I fail to remember if it happens with nAa or Alfs).
EDIT: Seems the misdetection only happens by chance with Alfs, but in case you experience that problem see this post.
- If it's not recognized at all ... check you're keeping the back button pressed while connecting the X8 to the PC until it's being recognized - check your USB cable - try another USB port - check your System for possible virii infections.

unfortunately .. it isn't recognized at all..
and believe me i'm 100% sure Im doing everything right ..
now i have downloaded the file u've given me ..
let's see the results
Thanks
EDIT: What am i supposed to do with that file??
i thought it's a driver i can install.. but apparently.. it isn't..
Thanks in advance..
EDIT2: I already have alfs .. and i want to install nAa ..
And i have a detection problem .. i never had before using alfs ..
i guess you know that already.. said that just to clarify ..

Wait.. What?
what do u see in the device manger ?
keep the device manager open when connecting the phone
and see if there is a blink (refreshing) in there - for detecting a new device
what do u see on the phone .. does it enter boot mode
if all is right on the phone side .. but still no response on the pc side (no new device yellow mark or blink) check your usb cable

The device manager is a list of hardware devices connected to the PC (in Windows)
If you are using windows .. type devmgmt.msc in the run prompt and the device manager shall open

yes the exclamation mark says that you donot have proper drivers
search and install the latest drivers for your phone .. shouldnt have taht exclamation mark
the drivers should also come with your flash tool .. in the drivers folder ..
you can right click in device manager select update driver .. and point to teh drivers in your flashtool ..
if you dont have a copy .. search for new drivers elsewhere and install
Dude,how did you flashed the alfs kernel?

Hi, I'm tryin to instal nAa GB kernel, but flashtool doesn't recognize my phone...

Install gordon gates driver just to be sure that they are installed properly
OR
Repair your phone through PC companion or Sony Update Service
And try again the whole steps.
If they don't work try some older versions of SuperOneClick.

It's really hard to help someone who REFUSES to read..
If you don't even know what gordon gate drivers are, this is proof that you have read nothing at all..
My advise is to forget rooting your phone and return to default SE software..
You cannot be helped without doing the minimum of work yourself.. XDA and it's members are not here to babysit you.

It's not that. I used to have a w8 and installed x8 drivers in flashtool. Amd it worked. I'm out of ideas... try getting a different version of flashtool?
Edit: i remember something. I had that issue a couple of times before. I just reinstalled the x8 drivers and the last 2 drivers as well (the last 2 found at the bottom of the list). Maybe that would help.

hi.. just had the same issue with you, but i got mine working.. i installed alfs v08a because it is one of the recommended kernels for ginger dx v29.
i followed the steps in this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225
just follow the labeled "how to flash kernels"
click the link there for the flashtool and once u install it, it will all the drivers u need.
then put the ftf file to firmwares in flashtool then open flashtool.
you click the lightning bolt icon then select your downloaded kernel and follow the instructions afterwards because you will be given prompts there..
by the way, i used the flashtool 0.5.3.0..
