[Q] SOLVED Windows 7 x64 doesn't recognize my x8 ?

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.

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 -

Windows 8.1 fastboot drivers

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

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.
I want to make it work for x32 bit
Sent from my LT25i using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
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..

have u tried other USB port ?
Drivers installed properly?
Remove Sonymobile drivers and reinstall them.
This should do the trick. I also advice you to restore your device on a Windows 7 machine. I am unable to restore mine on my Windows 8.1 machine and I have to use the one from my sister to restore my device.
Sounds like you are using Windows 8/8,1
Try again on a Windows 7 machine.

Windows 8 and 8.1 have problematic drivers. I suggest you use windows 7 to flash a stock ftf
Sent from my C5303 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ohhhhh is there any way to do it?
Or need to restore windows 7?!
There is a way. Download stock FTF, install flashtool on a Windows 7 device and restore.
Windows 8/8.1 got problems with the drivers. These problems cause connection issues with your Xperia SP and Flashtool

On flashtool official download site, go to FAQ, it has instruction on how to install drivers on Windows 8.
http://www.flashtool.net/disabledrivers.php
*However, I tried it myself, but wasn't able to get it to work. (most likely because of my AMD USB filter driver problem)
You can check it out and try.
Are you using Windows 8.1 64bit? if that is the case, I can help...I have a solution. but first I have to go back to my home. the main thing is you have to uninstall USB driver from Microsoft and install modified intel driver for this purpose...

Because of the problems with the connection of the phone via Windows 8/8.1 and flashtool. Also touching the phone or cable will give this issues..

Alright lets do the following things:
- Remove Flashtool and its drivers
- Reboot pc
- Follow this to install Flashtool and the drivers correct: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095087 (only the drivers required for Flashmode and Fastboot)
- Reboot again
- Connect phone in Flashmode (dont open flashtool) and let it install the drivers
- Reboot again
- Connect phone in Fastboot (dont open flashtool) and let it install the drivers
- Reboot (last time) again
- After reboot, open Flashtool and connect phone in flashmode (dont do anything) and wait a few minutes. Via the log of Flashtool you should be able to see if the phone is connected properly and if the phone stays connected
- Try to flash a Stock ROM and see what happends
If above fails then you can try to use compatible mode (flashtool.exe > Rightmouse button > Properties > Compatible mode > Windows 7)

Fastboot Problem in Win 8.1

anyone have issue with Fastboot in Win 8.1?? i have succesfuly with Flashmode.. but if i want use Fastboot.. always Show "USB Device Not Recognize" anyone know how to fix this issue??
Thx before :victory::victory:
i am having exact problem with flashmode every time i try to enter into flashmode it says device not recognized.. help! also (so i don't have to make different thread.
Problem is due to the drivers. I believe that Sony has not written correct drivers for Win 8.1 machines. I use VirtualBox with Windows XP To restore my phone with either flashtool or PC Companion.
