I have a mint xda iis that works a treat. Small problem is it just wont sync using usb. Tried different pc and a different cradle. The socket looks fine.
Anyone any ideas?
try difrend roms or difrend versions of activesync
Hi
Can't try different roms as I can't sync it to upgrade it won't even connect to it in bootloader mode
Tried different activesync no change.
Anyone got any more ideas.?
Is it possible that the firewalls on both PCs are blocking it? You'll also have to allow Windows Explorer if you want to browse your PPC on PC.
there is no need to sync it for changing roms , but it in bootlader mode , then place the device to cradle and the start the update
If my explaination seems too short to you read here
Nothing when I put in bootloader mode. Place in bootloader screen displays serial put in the cradle no change. Tried On different PC nothing. My Universal Syncs fine. It wont even see the device to explore. But it does charge.
I will suggest you to go to the nearest service center, it is something with boot loader or hardware, i am not sure exact which hardware part
This has been an ongoing issue on my Arc.
It is like nearly impossible to connect my phone to PC.
I have tried via wireless, and when connecting vis USB, I have to unplug my phone about 20 + times before it finds it and lets me into the files.
Why is this? Is this an Xperia issue, or is this a windows 7 issue?
Is there a work around for this yet, its driving me insane. At both work and home it takes forever to get my phone to connect to pc.
thanks, Amanda
I have exactly the same problem. Both hotspot and usb tethering only connect to local internet. It has connected to the internet before but lately nothing. We have 2 Arcs and they both have the same problem. We have windows vista.

I only had trouble connecting via PC Companion and that piece of crap managed to brick my phone when trying to update to 2.3.4 so I took the plunge and unlocked the boot loader. I have had no problems connecting with Fastboot, Flash Tool or just connecting as a mass storage device (although this can take 10-20 seconds before it registers). The laptop I use for the phone runs XP.
Did you find it hard to unlock the bootloader and will this void my warranty??
I use Win 7 Ultimate and it finds my Arc instantly when connected to USB (have not tried any other method). Same on both PCs I use. So it might not be the OS. It could be firewall or antivirus. I use Windows firewall and Microsoft Essentials, but others may be more strict.
Windows Vista and wi-fi is the whole other story. Vista just keeps thinking of new ways how to play with your nerves when it comes to any wi-fi functionality. I for one could not persuade it to connect to internet via WI-FI, it just let me connect to the local network. I therefore skipped it and went straight from XP to Win 7.

There are guides on here on how to do it (I would advise against following SE own guide as it is too involved). The biggest issue for me was, of course, getting the PC to see the phone in Fastboot mode. Once I had solved this issue (using device manager on the PC to install the drivers) it was easy.
Yes it could void your warranty. If you make a mess updating your phone by flashing custom ROMs then this would not be covered. Also if you overclock you CPU to 2.5gHz and melt it that would not be covered. I would guess that manufacturing faults would still be covered but ALL modification is at your own risk. I was comfortable to do this as I have installed lots of custom ROMs from my time as a ZTE Blade and SE X10 owner. At the moment there are not that many modifications that are available but with SE announcing they are supporting the Devs I am sure that will change.
maybe becuase you got mtp set instead of mass storage?
Try MyPhoneExplorer ...
Peace.

I changed it over to mass storage and it seemed to connect to my work laptop straight away. I will try this when I get home on my home pc, Thanks so much to everyone for your help.
When I pair my ET4G with my PC via bluetooth for file transfer. The PC says that the drivers for the device are not installed after it appears to pair successfully. It worked fine with my old Epic. I have the USB drivers and Kies installed. I know that Kies does not support bluetooth connections. Anyone else having this issue or able to make it work? If so, what did you do to get it working? It was really nice to transfer one or two files to/from my PC without pulling the phone out of my pocket.
Hi, I've recently purchased an Arc s, excellant phone, but can't seem to connect to my pc (using pc companion) via my wifi router.
The phone is not modded in any way, it connects to the router and the internet perfectly fine, just can't get pc companion to connect.
It connects fine via usb, when I'm following the instructions, i can get my pc to show up on the phone as a trusted device, but then it gets stuck in a connecting loop, the phone shows as connection, and on pc companion it says it will go to the last step automatically.
I have had the occasional connection problem to the internet via wifi, but think I've solved them now. The connection to the pc has never worked.
Any pointers would be great, as my partner also has a Neo, but I thought it best to get mine working first
Also pc is running windows 7 home premium x64, Router is a Netgear WNR2000v2 and is connected to my pc via ethernet cable
Many thanks
P.s I've also had trouble setting up a ftp network. Dont know of they could point to some thing. I've followed guides but to no avail.

I have been running Windows 8 Enterprise at work and Windows 8 Professional on all my computers at home. I haven't had any problems connecting my phone to any computer and being able to see my phone. When i first connected my phone, the drivers automatically installed but my phone did not show up as a device under drives nor did Odin see my phone, I simply disconnected the USB cable from my phone, waited a few seconds, plugged it back in and then the computer showed my phone and Odin recognized it. Make sure you have internet access as I think the drivers are automatically downloaded from the internet.
I haven't used Odin or adb but I have cm10 installed and I was able to copy files over using windows 8.
