i want to unlock the x8's bootloader using the flashtool but when i connect the phone to the computer, i can't access the 'plugins'(usb debugging on and drivers are installed) what am i doing wrong?
I had the same problem when I downloaded flashtools for the first time.
Try reinstalling driver's by running Gordon's gate app in flashtools/drivers folder

In the case installed drivers not working :-
That also depending up on ur pc OS
In windows 7 it will notify instantly(don't disconnect suddenly)
But in XP it will show new hardware found just ignore by cancle
let the phone connected for some time(atleast 2min) after notify ready to use ,connect again
Everything works greate

Guys i bought i new computer it has Windows 7x64, and i've installed the latest flashtool, installed the drivers in it. In flashtool the device is recognized, but when i try to flash a kernel it says USB device is not recognized or flashtool will start to flash and stops at checking header... I've installed all the drivers and i don't know what to do.
Any help is appreciated.
Re: [Q] Windows 7 x64 doesn't recognize my x8 ?

It occured to you to edit the title and put Solved. It didn't occur to you to write up how you solved your issue.
This would be helpful for others in the future with the same issue.
Cheers
...
Set in compatibility mode for windows XP. If you have the original Windows 7 then you can have problems, too, so I - I went back to XP ... on Win 7 was so that I could connect the phone only once, the second time he did not detect it in flash mode. helped restart the PC.
its okay dude!
my win7 is x64 too..
reinstall all drivers include gordons gates and flashtool driver (C:flashtool\drivers)
dont forget to running the FlashTool64.exe ! not the flashtool.exe
- run as administrator -

Hi All,
I attached the Sony XPERIA Phone to Windows 7. But Windows is not recognizing the phone. I can see in device manager C5303 is missing drivers.
Can anyone suggest me from where I can download drivers, please ?
I had this problem.
I installed PC companion and sus then once these were installed I could connect phone, I was still missing a driver when I put phone in flash mode.
Installed flashtools search xda this has drivers.
If after this Google the driver that is missing
Pc Device manager shows why is missing.

Hi
I'm unable to connect my xperia z in flash mode.
it is detected in fast boot mode but when i connect it in flash mode the green light is shown for one second and then not.
i'm using windows 8 with flash tool 0.9.11.0 .
I have tried everything re installing drivers formatting windows and all .
please tell me what to do?
Follow this guide to setup Flashtool and drivers - How to flash stock roms with Flashtool
There's a specific section on installing the drivers under Windows 8.
If you still can't get it to connect in Flashmode, try a different USB port or cable or even a different PC.

Run a driver check on flashtool in settings which will tell you if drivers are installed. There are a couple of links in my sig which you might want to read.

Hey there,
After upgrading windows 8 to 8.1, I cannot get my phone into fastboot. It seems that previously installed drivers on W8 are now gone.
Any idea how to fix this?

Install the drivers again.
I've had the same problem in windows 8.1... Fastboot device cannot be recognized by the system, but i don't know why; the problem was "Error enumerating device id". If you see hardware id, it doesn't exists and the driver won't be found. I returned to windows 7.

Mind if you shared a way of doing that?
Installing the official sony flashtool with its drivers didn't help + every other way I tried (that worked when I had 8) also resulted in failure.
PS:When I connect it in fastboot, windows says that "drivers malfunctioned, unknown USB device"

You have to do it safe mode or something similar

OK, not sure what the issue is then, can you get access to a win7 machine? There are no issues with drivers on win7

Anyone with a solution already?

load wubi (windows ubuntu installer) over the link http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Wubi
than install ubuntu, on harddrive C:// and reboot your Pc
Now you have a linux in your current system, you can remove ubuntu (linux) in Programms & feautures list in windows.
now reboot reboot the system and isntall in ubuntu fastboot.
you musst give in the terminal sudo apt-get fastboot
and now you can flash your bootloader in linux.
but you musst sudo bevor you type fastboot flash type sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
you say it is easy
gooogle wubi (windows ubuntu installer)
im here.. me too facing the same weird problem.
in 8.1 os it worked at first but then it didnt recognizing my device. reinstalled the 8.1 os and tested and same result. worked at first then fu**ed up again.
hope someone will get ride of this prob in 8.1ois :/
Same..
Exactly the same problem here. On windows 8, no issue. After updating to 8.1, "Error enumerating device id". I've tried everything, but nothing.
I had my xperia without kernel, and I REALLY needed Fastboot, so I had to go to a W7 pc, and no issue then.
Ohh, and I can't disable driver verification on W8.1 . When i'm in advanced boot menu, I just can't press any key. The keyboard doesn't work, and I have to Hard Reboot. Any idea?
EDITED
This worked for me : http://www.droid-now.com/2013/10/fix-working-fastboot-drivers-windows-8-1-x64/
So now I can use fastboot/ flashmode, but only if I connect the phone to an usb 3.0 port. On 2.0 the issue is still there.

Nice share brotha.

As I see the only way to get access to fastboot and flash mode is to use windows 8 or lower.
Here is the cause of our problem and there is no solution so far: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/usbcoreblog...8-0-but-fail-on-windows-8-1-with-code-43.aspx
EDIT: I used the old XP machine of my parents to unlock the bootloader and everything worked fine
well w8.1 certainly cannot use fastboot if you plug it into USB 2.0 port..as microsoft has change it usb policies in w8.1, the only way to use fastboot in w8.1 is to plug into a USB 3.0 hub, and install your driver the same way before..
