updating R1A Rom to R2A - XPERIA X1 General

sorry for a noob question, but how is it done

Not sure :-s
I bought Xperia Yesterday happyyyy
but got some weird isues and wanna check for updates via SE Update Service
I went to Tricolour screen and SEUS was identifying my device..but after 5 minutes it's still identifying :s
Not sure what's wrong or is it normal it takes that long? :-s
please help

Do you have Windows Vista on your machine. I was having the same problem on my vista. Switched to XP and it worked just fine.

Euhm..Nope :-s
So the SEUS doesn't work well on Vista?
Would it help if I install Virtual Machine and try to update it via Virtual Machine?

Imei-Check with Windows Vista

Hi,
i just paid for imei-check and im not running xp any more im running vista, hence no active sync i use mobile device center (part of vista)
as a result C3v1Unlock.exe cant see my connected XDA orbit device.
any ideas of a workaround for this ? other than going to an xp machine to do it?
Thank You
Update :
I go ttit to work by disabling windows firewall, it connects to my device now and reboots it, but then it says
"this unlocker works for Artemis devices only. Aborting"
any ideas ?

the 4.2 version is incompatible with windows Vista, try the new 4.5 beta.
For your information Windiows Vista have built in the active sync module (look the mobile connection probram in side bar).
no, not found in Vista, I'll try the V2 probram of imei.check. This program ask me to attend if I'm Vista user (attend for 2 minutes for Vista install program), but I've attend for 5 minutes and my P3300 screen still blank!
I used imei check with vista and it worked perfectly first time - did you set a connection and sync the orbit with windows before you tried?

First sync with windows Vista

I am trying my first sync with Vista but when I connect it to PC it starts to look for some drivers. Vista doen't find theme and I can'T sync. What drivers is looking for? Ho can I sync my x7500 with Vista?

are you using the beta Vista? you need to download the software call windows mobile device center.
Hi, I'm useing Vista Ultimate, no beta, and I still have MDC, but when I connect PPC Vista try to search and download some drivers without success and it doesn't allow me to sync. Previously I was using MDC with HTC P3600 with no problem...

have you try connect your p3600 and see whether it sync?
I can't test P3600 because I gave it away. Here it is what I get when I try to sync:
I don't read your language, but based on what you've said, try checking windows update, while your athena is connected. Perhaps, there are files for you to download after you connect. I have Vista Ultimate as well, and the drivers did install when I first synced, so you should be able to have them too.
Really I dont' know what could it be. However the message window say that:
it's necessary to install GENERIC RNDIS DRIVER
What the hell!!!!
Now I'm trying under XP and I have no problem...what could it be? Any suggestion?

I'm using Vista Business with Dopod U1000 and it runs flawlessly.
But I was getting Hell with Dopod 900 WM6 and Vista synchronization. So much problems, bugs, and inconsistencies.
Ohhh, thats what it says. Microsoft supply's in most cases generic remote NDIS drivers for at least USB, so vendors won't have to create their own specific drivers (or so I've read, anyway ). Do you run Vista 64? I've heard of 'RNDIS driver missing' issues with Vista 64. You may also want to check your startup disk you received with your Athena. I realize you use WMDC, but there may the RNDIS drivers bundled with Activesync, that you may be able to pull out. Just a thought, and other than that, I'm not sure what else to say, except look on the net. Good luck, I can only imagine how frustrating this must be for you.
Just to let you know i also run Vista Ultimate 64, and uses WMDC, the first time i connect my DOPOD U1000, it install the driver straight away without any problem, then i can start sync with no problem.

I'm running Vista 32. About startup disk it could only install Activesync and really I can't fiugure out how to extract drivers needed. About net solution, Vista couldn't find drivers on line...
off topic question to mystic blue..
can you post your avatar as a large image?
thanks..it looks interesting your UI..
Here are a few screenshots. Using Wisbar Advance 2, Wisbar Advanced Desktop, Weather Panel, and Pocketbreeze.
UHm very very OT...please some advice about my problem related to this post will be welcome...
It seems that it cant recognize device...
I Found solution!!!
It's a WMDC bug that start to find RNDIS drivers in wrong folder. So all I had to do was to force it finding drivers in correct folder: C:/windows
Now I can sync!!!
Here it is reference...in italian

Got mine working with 64bit windows vista. just deleted that file.
YOU ROCK!!!
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! You don't have an Idea of how many hours I spend searching a solution for get my htc wizard recognized, your last comment on force the driver search on c:\windows solve my problem too...
But not also with my phone even with a lot of hardware that I can't make get recognized...
Vista seems to be a real pain in.... anyways I don't know how many research I have left but, I have two vista x32 home premiun edition computers one made by gateway and the other by samsung.
And I notice that the samsung one doesn't have any problem recognizing hardware, so I entered to the device manager to see the drivers and I notices must of them run under the 6.0.6000.16389 vista_rtm .....) version and I found that this Driver Kit it's availiable on windows connect for beta testers, so I decide to download them, lets see if this driver kit solve many issues with my gateway.
New Version WMDC 6.1 is available!
New version is available in Microsoft website,you can download freely and install!
It should solve most of the problems!
I'm using Dopod U1000 with Vista Ultimate and WMDC 6.1 without any problem!
My only concern is I'm unable to 'reflow' pdf documents using Vista!(It was very easy with Active Sync4.5 & XP)
Any idea to overcome this problem?
plz share!
dopod 595
i have dopod 595, and now i using vista ultimate 32, i cannot sync my outlook. please advice
thanks

SEUS desn't see x1 in bootloader screen

Hi ppl. I'm new in the world of Win. mobile and Smartphones.I have an Xperia ( simlockfree logofree ) in dutch.
KOVS110
SPL-0.72.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707
ROM versie: 1.02.937.3
ROM Datum: 08/29/08
Radioversie: 1.06.25.29
Protocolversie: 52.43.25.24U
Uitbeidingversie: 1.0.55513.1119
Modelnr: X1i
R1AA017 R8A 1215-3311 GENERIC_NL
The phone seems to have some problems. ( restarts sometimes , loong loading time , frizing...etc ). I got back to the dealer and ask for warranty. He sed that the problem is for shure software and i can make an update SEUS. I tried for 3 days to do it and i can't. I have Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1. The new and fresh Win mobile device center 6.1, working USB ports , different USB cables.I have no firewall.My phone connects without any problems and makes syncronization with sync center. The problem is in bootloader mode. I hear a connection sound , but the SEUS and the sync center doesn't see it. In system/device manager i see it as - mobile usb sync device ( or something like that ).The phone shows 3 colors and serial message . When i put the usb cable in , it changes to usb message. Doesn't do anything else. I tryed with/without SD card , restart , reinstall , reset , change ports , cables , drivers, win updates......all the advice in the forums except changing PC ( i have only 1).......Nothing.
I wanted to see if it's broken or not. I don't want to try hardspl flashing or anything else until i'm 100% shure that the phone is good. I don't want to give the f$%^&rs any reason to deny the warranty. So my question is : is there a solution to be able to connect to the SEUS in bootmode screen?
PS -- if it works i'll go for an different ROM-- i'm not dutch , and neither english , so pls excuse all the errors in this post.
Ty for taking the time to read this post.
Of curse thar iz. Iz da nurmall way! Use tha search-funkjon! Ya hav ta use tha natif Administrator-Account uf Win Vistaz!

Perhaps it is a 64-Bit issue. I can tell you from my experiments that under Win Vista 32-Bit it is most likely a problem of the USB driver. At least I don't think it's a software issue (By software I mean an application). If you run Windows XP on VirtualPC with USB "Passthrough", SEUS will not work either. So it must be a low-level problem of Vista. As you may know, Vista has a new driver system. I believe the 64-Bit version differs from the 32-Bit version in function.
Last week I checked SEUS with my Xperia and detected it correctly. But yesterday SEUS didn't recognize my X1. I didn't make any changes on my X1 since last week. I used Hard SPL to remove my custom Vodafone ROM 3 months ago, and I update to the official R2 without problems. I have the same problem that all of people who posted here. We need a solution because it's very strange this. Maybe SE made some change in his SEUS to avoid people who used Hard SPL update by the official way? Thank you very much. Best regards
VISTA is the problem......... With the help of an XP PC i used SEUS with no problems. Anyway....i steel have Vista PC , so if there will be an solution for future updates pls post them here. TY
i don't have Vista, XP but same problem...
Persuader X, does it say to you "loading...no image file"?

Yes. When I connect it, the color bars disappear and start the progress bar that appears when a ROM is being installed. After a pair of seconds, Xperia reboot and says "no image file "., and comes to the boot screen with color bars again to rest in that state forever.
Let me quote myself
I heard of some people that SEUS ran on Vista when they removed the tick for the USB-connection in the mobile device center. Maybe that helps.
Other said, that they had to install the new driver for the USB-sync-connection; just let Windows Update run while your X1 is in the bootloader-mode connected with your PC - maybe try this more then once; my Windows Update needed four runs to find the driver

One of the two points will help you too, you'll see
Hey guys, I can update finally. Try this, like me.
Restore stock Hard SPL. It's posted in this forum.
Run SEUS in the administrator account of Vista.
If you don't do any of the 2 previous things, it won't work!
Best regards.
Hi!
Solution from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519317&referrerid=1836412
Clear the Checkbox : USB Connection allowed, in the Vista Mobile Devicecenter (before connecting the USB cable to X1). After that the SEUS can identify the X1 and continue with the guide.
Regards
Marcus
Thanks to Marcus that was the perfect solution i spent 6 hours trying to figure this out you are the first one to offer a non flash option.
Cheers

[Q] Orange SPV M500 loses connection during upgrade

Hi
I'm new to all this so please be gentle.
I have a Orange spv m500 that I'm trying to upgrade. I run the Rom upgrade and it connects, tells me that it is upgrading from one version to the new version. The phone then goes into the bootloader mode. Usb at the top of the screen and v1.00 at the bottom. After about 2 mins I get a 101 connection error.
Phone now just stuck in the bootloader.
Please help

so your PC using Windows Vista OS, no wonder you did not find wcescomm.exe !!
for synchronization you could use WMDC 6.1 for Windows Vista
here, report the successful flash the rom in Vista ~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2640169&postcount=6
upgrade done
Hi Thanks to all that provided advice. I managed to get an old xp laptop and got connected and upgraded. Cheers
