I am putting my problem here as i am a new member.
My PC Suite for X10 was working fine but last week i received firm ware update R2BA024 over the air. After that update, I tried to install PC suite on a new (as i bought a new PC) computer. however, after installation, PC suite gives message for software update, after following all the steps, at the stage where PC suite ask to remove the phone battery for 5 seconds and than connect the USB cable with phone while holding the BACK button, once i follow this step, my computer gets stuck and than i have to re-boot it. I tried installation on a 3rd computer as well to check but problem remains the same. However, if connect to my previous (1st) computer it does not show any message of software update and works well.
Can any body let me know what could be the problem and how i can over come. As presently it seems that I can no longer use PC suite on new computer.
Thanks
Hi.
PC Suite doesn't work with the X10, it's PC Companion you need to install.

I agree wahhhh Can't stop laughing maybe his new with the android phone lol.... any way your x10 every computer is fine and its work flawlessly..ones u connected into your computer it will prompt u first the sdcard and u will see some option and u can install the pc companion coz its already inside the sdcard ohh
Sorry Guys for my mistake!! Its actually PC companion (wrongly mentioned PC Suite). As mentioned in the my question, I was already using it on a different computer and worked fine. Also i installed update service.
But now on new PCs both are not working. I am sure that there is no problem with the PCs as i checked PC companion on 2 different PCs and problem remains the same. Problem started after upgrade from RF 14 to R2BA024
Thanks for your support again

what os version you have on ur new pc? is it windows 7, vista, xp? my nephew have windows7 laptop wen i plug in the usb cable onto my x10 it detects the new software and it installed automatically,,,, now you ca install pc companion and update service right from ur sdcard
on my laptop i have windows xp and its run flawlessly with no prob.....
I am using Windows XP professional. I have downloaded the latest version of PC companion version 2.00.142 and SEUS version 2.10.7.15. Both works well with my old PC as they were installed before firmware upgrade OTA to R2BA024. But incase i install these on a new PC and connect phone, PC gets stuck during the process as mentioned above.
ahhhhh!!!!! now i know what's the problem you need to factory reset your phone to refresh all the setting and update....but before that you need to back up your data..... go to settings-sd card & phone storage -factory data reset.... it won't deleted mp3,images,
wile the others to be deleted is contact,files, application downloaded, setting from the network but its ok it will prompt you automatically after you reset the phone....
good luck..... cross finger......
Thanks for the support. Just one more question - After Factory reset would i be able to receive again the latest firmware - R2BA024
Ahhhhhhh!! tried factory reset, re-installation of PC companion but problem remains the same. Computer gets stuck

what is the error message you get from pcs that does not work???
I had the same "problem"... Try this - Uninstall PC Companion > download the latest version (http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/pccompanion/xperiax10?cc=gb&lc=en) > Install new version
I donot get any error messags. After pc companio installatjon it says softwafe update is available. But at at the stage where it ask to remove phone batter for 5sec and than connect phone while holding the back button when i do so computer gets hang. I will try to provide screen shots later as well to give more clear understanding
Well as nothing was going well so i decided to go back to my old computer for a try. I uninstalled Companion and SEUS and than reinstalled PC companion on the my old PC. After reinstall Campanion showed the same message of a software udate available here as well. So I started the upgrade process again and it started downloading, installation was also started with out any problem. However, at the installation finalisation stage (very final stage) i would get a an error message that installation was not succesful and to try again. Tried several times and during this try again process I all most brick my phone as well as at one stage my phone started showing yellow Exclaimation mark (I was almost dead) But than lucky the update process completed and phone rebooted succesfully.
So i went back to new my compture to check it their AND every thing was fine there as well. PC campanion is working perfectly fine on it. I also checked it an a 3rd PC also for the sake of checking and there as well every companion worked fine.
After software upgrade, my phone now also has the option of Sync with Sony web as well as before it only showed the option of sync with gmail.
What exactly was the problem!! am unable to sort it out so far. And I wonder what will happen if there is another upgrade available????
Hey
i know there are a lot of threads about the play not connecting to either but that isnt my problem, it connects to PC companion fine but when i go through the update settings it fine, it powers off my phone but then when i have to hold the back button and connect the USB i get a tripple bong (not the normal connection sound) from the pc and then nothing from either SEUS or PCC but i do get driver popup to install "S1Boot Download" but i cant find anything about a driver
i know this isnt the biggest update in the world but damn it i want it
PC is windows vista
phone current version = 3.0.1.a.0.145
New Version = 4.0.a.2.368
phone is stock
cheers
basically the issue is that i cant connect the play to the pc using the 'hold back and insert usb cable' method when i do connect i get a message asking me to install s1 download driver but this doesnt matter wether i hold back button or search button
I have a xperia x10 but i cannot connect to pc companion or SE update service.Pc companion doesnt even recognise my phone and wen i connect my phone to system is shows 'USB device unrecognized' and wen i follow the steps said in SE update service it still remains in charging.Noting happens on keeping the back button pressed.
I have installed latest drivers from android sdk as well as sa0101usb.inf
I need to update my phone to 2.3.Can someone help me out
