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!

Thats the Problem. I've got the same Problem with Vista (regardless if 32/64 bit).
This problem occures very often. Try it with Windows XP !

TRY IT WITH ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT! Are you guys nuts?

I have the same problem. I've got only 1 account and it has status of administrator. I have run SEUS with admin privilages and no effect ;/

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.

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

can juststable be saved to microcard

can juststable be saved to microcard or do you have to go through the whole technical process ...ive read some of it and it seems ill never be able to get it ..i can save programs to my card and thats about it..unless some one has a simple step by step

JustStable is a ROM. That's an equivalent to an Operating System on your computer.
Metaphor: Sure, you can run Linux off of a CD Drive, but Windows, no way!
Your SD card in your phone is similar to a CD drive. So, NO, you cannot install an operating system (ROM) onto your phone's SD card.
And one more thing...Flashing a ROM (installing it) isn't nearly as simple as installing a program. Just like how upgrading your Operating System on your PC compared to installing a program on it.
If you wanna upgrade and flash to JustStable, tell us, and we've got some guides that you can follow.

what's the first thing you download

First thing you do is go to: www.thewingster.com
Then you go to the ROM's section. Pick your ROM. Do NOT pick a ROM that says, LZX. Once you found a ROM you like, locate the How To Flash this ROM link on the ROM's page. Follow the instructions.
As it says, first, you download and extract your ROM. So, you return to your ROM's page and click DOWNLOAD. Then you unzip or unrar it. You might need 7zip for that.
Then follow the rest of the instructions. Got it?

It should just fine. Let it stay connected for a while, it has to download the Windows Mobile Device Center, so that takes some time.
If you're on 64-bit, it still should work, but I've heard some problems with that.

make sure the device has been hard spl'd. or use uspl to flash.

sorry for being slow but could you explain most of the terms like spl...some of us are newbies to this ...also i have wmdc 6.1 and it wont connect

Okay, from begining
Answer in points like I ask you questions
1. Can you enter bootloader? (serial text on screen without backlight)
2. Which Bootloader version do you have? It is written on screen when in bootloader mode at bottom (like 1.03v)
3. If you put your device into crandle (of course crandle is connected to usb in your pc/laptop) do USB text appear in place where Serial text was already?
4. Which system do you use? (Xp, vista, 7, linux, unix, amiga, commodore)
5. Do you have nk.nbf and Upgrade.exe or HimaUpdate(...).exe in THE SAME folder?
6. What happens if you run update application and click Next?
7. Did you tried to run in administrate mode?
8. Do you have x64 system?
9. Do you have himalaya? put out your battery and check if it is written PH10B or PH10A.
10. Did you tried another PC or another crandle?
11. Which rom you want to flash?
Answer here.

HI,
1. yes
2. v1.01
3. yes USB is displayed
4. windows 7. ( i have XP aswel which i tried and failed also)
5. Yes. Both files in same folder on my desktop.
6. it says checking information on your PDA then says connection failed.
I tried it when not in bootloader mode aswell and it said it was erasing everything off my PDA but then said connection failed straight away.
7. Yes tried it in admin mode but same error messages.
8. no not using x64 system.
9. under the battery it says PH10B
10. Yes, tried my laptop and also my desktop.same errors on both of them.
11. Ive tried a few ROMs. any ROM will do realy. just want to get rid of windows mobile 2003.
Thanks for your quick replies.
ive updated alot of phones from windows 2003 to windows 6.5 but this 1 is just stubbon lol.
could it be the handset is faulty?
im waiting for another handset to come which is identical but originaly on T-Mobile not O2 like this 1.

sorry for not getting back to you im only a noob 2 things may be wrong sounds like faulty socket on phone or faulty cable/cradle try wobbling the cable gently when connected all sounds obvious but we are talking grandad of mobiles you cannot as far as i know go strait from 2003 to 6.5 i just got to 6.5 if you get a stable connection you have to go 2003se then 5 from there went to swampys blue silk now aeroflylubys hybred 6.5 all running perfect also athers memory program came in handy i used microsoft activsync 4.5 for xp win7 is a brill os but xp did it for me

ROFL! amiga!!! AMIGA FOREVER!!!!

Ive just had another O2 XDA II and a TMobile MDA II throught the post.
ive just ordered a new cradle today aswell, as the 1 I was using was slightly cracked on the bit that connects to the phone.
So that might of been the problem.
im unable to test until the new cradle comes (hopefully in the morning)
il keep you posted.

[Q] HP IPAQ 614c PC activesync, connection problem

Hello all,
I have HP IPAQ 614c and i can't connect this phone with any pc or any USB cable. I get message unknown drivers... Maybe someone knows what the problem it is ? I wana install normaly ROM and firmware, but i can't connect my phone to pc... Thanks a lot who will help me to fix it...

I have the same problem with my iPAQ 914c... But, i can intall a new ROM with a external SD Card.

You can install ? I can install too ROM from HP web. But how to update Firmware without USB ? So i need connect my phone to update it... Ehh... Bored of seaches...

Yes, I can install it
Instructions for flashing (extrated from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800558):
Download de firmware. Decompress it and you have the .dio file. Put this file into a less than 2 gb sd (sdhc won't work) and put your device in sdloader mode. This happens pressing together volumeup + ok and pressing reset releasing the two vol and ok buttons. After doing this, the device checks the file integrity, flash to your device rom and do a clean reboot. When is finished, it ahould autoreset, but if not, it will show a black screen for a long time. Is then when it has finished, so then make a reset and your device will have installed the ROM

How to update flash.dio i know. I Need english version. I have updated OS. But how to update FW ? Becouse now mine is 0.81 version. And then i upload original flash.dio from HP hexeded file. Phone installing one this file from 6 files. Like i see on screen phone, missing 5 files to install... Sorry for bad english, but i think you will understand me what i mean...
On phone i have some bugs, like xt9 in SMS mode. And bug in contacts. Can't seach contact by name, i can put only numbers there to seach. GPS not work. And other little bugs.
But main problem is how to activesync this phone ? Why PC can't find phone ( device ). Tryed anything. Different PC, different windows. Different cables. Can't find solution for it... I think must be way to find problem. HP agents can't help me, becouse warranty ended, heh. They just told me what phone port for cable can be out of working. But phone charging working well...

So who gona help me ?...

DeFuSeGM, you are able to activesync by bluetooth, just follow the activesync help topic under connection using bluetooth. Starting i got a lot problem to setup and took me quite a while to get it solve out. U can try it.
BTW, anyone can share how fast is your bluetooth phone to phone transfer rate. Mine is only 50kb/s, seem like quite slow compare to other phone i used to use.
Thanks

And how about if i can't open bluetooth meniu in phone ? USB dont work, bluetooth dont work, with SDLOADER can't upgrade... Phone dead ? Or any way to delete wrong ROM from phone without connecting it to pc ? I need faster help...

I had the same problem on my 614c, I opened the device and re soldered the usb connector. Haven't had any problem since that.
But it requires good soldering skills.

Can someone make picture of sync cable ? Maybe i have wrong usb cable. Becouse repairman sayd what anything with phone okey. Seems i need get corect cable. Thanks

Have changed main board and anything was okey with phone. Seems if USB dont work, you need change main board or try load ROM by SD card. But in my way i was stuck on that.

Thats great cheers! One small problem at the moment is I can't get my phone to sync with my PC now. I can get it to connect and I can view the files on it in Explorer but it won't "sync" - any ideas?
I have Windows 7 64bit

reinstall the drivers for activesync

That instruction about syncing / getting an active sync connection doesn't mean what it appears to mean. It simply means get a USB connection.
Put phone in bootloader, connect to USB, when word. "Serial" becomes "USB", that's an activesync connection and you can flash.
