Help needed!

I have bought an Xperia X10 from Ebay and now get stuck on start screen shows me the start-up animation continous.What i can do my Pc sees my Xperia like Xperia X4 instead of X10 and doesn't find any driver.
Any help?
Thanks in advance!

Have you tried a reset?

u Sure its a original and not a chinese copy?

first off i find it interesting that you joined jan 2008 and THIS is your first post!
if you've been here since then you'd probably have noticed by now that most people include as much information as possible when posting if they want their question answered.
And.. not to mention you probably noticed each forum has subforums with different categories.. like the one for GENERAL? I don't see Android DEVELOPMENT having anything to do with your phone not starting.
let's start over.
A. what version of the phone did you buy? unlocked?
B. what carrier are you using it on?
C. is there a SIM or a microSD in the device when you are attempting to boot it up?
D. What version of windows are you trying to connect your device to?
we might have a better understanding of what's going on if you could answer these questions for us.

Killerskincanoe i use my acount only for tutorials,downloading applications and roms and till now i didn't have any problems with my phones.
I bought the phone from Ebay unlocked and i used with Vodafone but worked fine with Orange..etc.
My phone is Prototype Ap1 and my Pc sees it like Xperia X4 but the phone is 100% Xperia X10 because i used few weeks and everything worked right.
I tried to boot it up with/without sim or card and nothing changes.
I'm using Windows7 64.
Krabman i don't know the combinations of buttons to try an hard reset and i can't install the driver.
Sorry for my english.
Any help will be apreciated.

I would contact SE to get the button combo for the reset as its not in the manual which only shows the menu path. You did pull the battery and let it set for a few minutes before putting it back in right?

Hi. (Hai noroc.. )You can try the following. Go to the official sony ericsson website, and download UPDATE SERVICE. Start it, then follow these steps:
-Remove and re-insert the battery (make sure it's more than half)
-Press the back (<-) button while connecting the phone to your PC (keep pressing untill further notice)
-Usually after the phone has been correctly recognised, it will let you know.
Even if it's a prototype it should work and update the SW.
My only concern is.. How the hell did you manage to buy an acceptance unit online?!..
And more.. WHY did you get it? It's a known fact that prototypes are the most unstable..
Anyway.. if the update service doesn't work.. It's most probable that is a very early proto, or a chinese replica like reb0rn said.

any news on this problem i have a non proto that hangs on activating screen also

OTG Cable Bricked my UNROOTED Nexus 7!?

I am in desperate need of some help!!
I have an unrooted Nexus 7. I received my OTG cable today and I plugged in a USB stick and tried using a Nexus Media Importer with a Kingston USB drive. It came up with a "Connecting" box so I walked off to grab a drink. I got sidetracked and ended upo coming back an hour later. Now.. It won't turn on!!
I pressed the lock button and nothing, tried to turn it back on and nothing. I've plugged it into the computer and nothing!
HOW can this have bricked my Nexus 7!?
Can anyone suggest what to try next? I have no idea how this has happened.

Have you tried charging it (wall charger)?

Hold down power for 20 seconds?

Yes, It had over 90% battery too! I just left it alone whilst Nexus Media Importer was trying to open the USB Drive and an hour later it's completely dead.. There was one video file on the USB stick that had been freshly formatted, nothing was opened manually since leaving the tablet.
It won't boot into recovery mode and I don't really want to get it repaired without first wiping the memory as I have lots of relatively private work documents and family photos on it!
Can anyone suggest how I could wipe the memory and/or fix this?

I got the google logo for about a second then nothing, and now it won't display the google logo. Does holding the power button down for 20 seconds do something different then?

i would let the power run down then give it a full charge. then hold power button with one of the volume buttons. if not then try downloading a tool kit for the nexus 7 on your pc and connect it.

It's a soft reset I think...

Keep trying. She'll come back. Hold that power button.

Simply wait a few hours for the battery to charge :good:

That's the plan. It had a full charge though, why would the battery be entirely drained?
Before I left waiting for it to connect I tried a few USB devices with the OTG cable and Nexus Media Importer and I got this window:
"Connecting
USB Device
dev/bus/usb/001/002"
I couldn't get it to work so I thought I'd give it a while but obviously it didn't do much good!
Do you think the cable is faulty? I can't see why it couldn't read the Memory stick?

Nexus Media Importer is still buggy and may not work for everyone. Stickmount didn´t work for me either, I had to use this nice app to get a stable connection through OTG to a random USB Stick: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.shajul.usbotg&hl=de

I'm hoping not too root this device if I can help it! But I've read nothing but good things on Nexus Media Importer I just assumed it would work the OTG cable I bought. Is it common for the app to not "Connect" with a USB stick?
I have no idea what caused my N7 to die but fingers crossed it'll boot back up in a few hours!

Rooting is not a bad thing at all. You can use eg. apps like Titanium Backup, Adaway ( to disable Ads in Apps ) or clean your System by removing some Apps you may not need at all
Nexus Media Importer still needs some updates since it has some bugs when used with Android 4.3

I know the the benefits of rooting butat the moment I don't have enough confidence that the tablet won't die on me and render my warranty useless! Haha
As I'm running everything stock I can't see why some N7's are working fine with nexus media importer and mine falls to connect to any external storage?
Is there anything I can use/try without rooting to use external storage?

Install OTG Troubleshooter. It'll at least let you know if your OTG cable and device is detected.

UPDATE: my nexus is now working again, I charged it for 5 hours then held the power button in for about 30 seconds.. I got the Google screen for.a while but eventually it booted up as normal.
I used the OTG troubleshooter within nexus media importer and it locked up the OTG cannot and mass storage device fine...
However regardless of what usb stick I try and use it still hands inn the "connecting" box I mentioned previously..
Any idea how to get my nexus To connect to a usb flash drive?

try the otg troubleshooter only without the nexus media importer. Sorry couldn't be of more help to you.

For otg to work in 4.3, you have to boot your nexus 7 with English US language activated.
Once your nexus 7 is booted, you can revert back to your preferred language.
This bug is explained in nexus media importer app.

When you say booted, do you mean a factory reset? then using English (US) as the startup language?
Or simply change it to English (US) now then reset the N7? It's already in English US for some reason anyways.. but I think I set it up to be English UK originally out of the box?

Simply change the language in settings to English (US), switch off, switch on. You can change your language back at this point if you wish and OTG should work.
Hope that helps.

TF300t rooting

I have a quick question. It seems that my tablet has lost its ability to connect through USB recently. I was unable to send pictures to the pc one day and have bought numerous cables to no avail. Looks as if, somehow, it just wont connect through usb. The original cable was acting up during charging anyway. My main question is, how do I root without the ability to connect to a pc? Is this at all possible? I was rooted before but since installing the newest update, 10.6.1.27.5-20130902, i noticed it wasn't rooted anymore.Am I pretty much SOL? BTW, nowadays the tablet wakes up and beeps like every other minute while charging. Dont know if its related. I wish I didnt do the update altogether.

Updating to the latest firmware (at last check) hides the developer options from the settings. Your problem might be that USB debugging was disabled or never was enabled.
To add developer settings back into the settings, you need to go into the "about tablet" in settings and tap the build number 5 or so times and then developer options should show up.

If its a cable problem, the cable only costs 5$ on amazon.

I'm on my third replacement cable already. Also, developer options are turned on. USB debugging is on as well. They charge fine but connecting them directly to any computer i have does nothing, almost like not plugging it in at all. Have tried on three different setups that worked before, Win 7 X64, Win 8 X64, Win XP X86.

Disable the developer options and USB debugging. Windows may be trying to recognize the ADB instead of trying to mount partitions.

Tried that too. Doesn't seem to work either way.
Which worries me severely.

If you haven't already, install the google sdk adb drivers and see if that works, though from what it sounds like that's not the problem.
I'm thinking bad usb port on computer... try wireless adb if you can...

might be that the plug at your tablet got damage some how? maybe not fully damaged but partialy, do u have a dock? if you have you have any problem with it?
sorry for my bad english
Greetings!

Don't have the dock. Went to the Best Buy out here and they don't got it. Worst case scenario, my port is jacked up, can I still root without it? If so what steps can I take to do so?

depends on if you have a custom recovery like twrp if you do, then you should ok flashing supersu package, otherwise you are in the worst case scenario...

Retrieving photos from Note 3

Hi,
I'm having issues with an old Galaxy Note 3.
The story is a friend of mine tried to replace the glass on his note 3 and botched it completely. He destroyed the display and gave up on it and eventually sent it to me completely disassembled(in individual parts)+ a new frame, sans the lcd, but it wasn't cost effective to replace the display so I let it sit and gather experience. He now asked me to retrieve his photos from the onboard storage and here is where I'm stuck.
I assembled the components on the new frame without the lcd and I put the battery in, let it charge for a bit and tried to connect it to the laptop and installed the usb drivers and kies.
The problem is that all the components listed under devices and printers for SAMSUNG_Android are locked, as in I am unable to update or change the drivers. Also, Kies reports being unable to connect to the phone.
The phone buzzes once upon connecting to the pc and the red led comes on(as it does when charging).
Am I missing something important? Should I use the old frame with the broken up lcd? I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks a bunch.

I was able to connect my phone to pc eventhough the screen is blank until I overblew it with hot air.... Maybe the mb has damaged?. Did yoy tried to install usb driver alone without kies?.

Sure, I had installed the usb files before Kies.
In the end, I let it charge overnight and it booted. Connected fine after that.

Lepro3 not bricked, but really strange

Well,
My Lepro 3 has a very very strange problem :
Everything started Monday : it was at 20% and he just switched off, and then did 0 sign of life for like 4 hours (it was charging, but no led, etc..). After those 4 hours, the red light started blinking but still. And after 1 hour, I was able to boot (he had 10%). I decided to reset the rom, however, there was no way to get the phone recognized by my computer. I then decided to go to sleep and to charge to 100% the phone. Of course, nothing changed. And i even realized something worst : it takes like 5-6 hours to get to 100%, and it was 1h30 before.
FURTHERMORE : my lepro 3 isnt recognized on any PC, and neither in fastboot mod.
PLUS :
- when switched off, he won't power ON if i plug him to usb/sector.
- when powered on, he will vibrate TWICE when plugged to usb/sector : charging for 1 sec, then not charging for one sec, and then charging (like if he was trying to fast-charge, fails, and then switched to low-speed-charging
- when switched off, i sometimes need to press power for 10sec+ to get him booting
- I tried different cables
- tried usb debugging on/off
I don't know what i can try.. the only way seems to reset it with adb-wireless by pushing him a new rom but well..
I think it is a problem with my USB-C port (lepro 3 side) and i guess it is not using fast charging anymore
However, my headphones (usb-c) still work
Thanks in advance...
PS : I forgot to mention that i am running with Cydras Google-like rom 0.20S

I would switch to see makes a difference I have used that ROM without issue

Well I don't really know how to change the rom with no USB access.. Dunno if adb wireless is safe
Moreover, since the phone doesn't power up when off and plugged.. I guess the rom has nothing linked with this.. But maybe i'm wrong ! Could it be the kernel ?

i try to power it on : it vibrates one but doesnt boot
I need to unplug it and then to power it on
EDIT : I just managed to install twrp with flashify, but i would like to know if it will be useful to install a new rom or if it won't change anything....

Yeah I tried..

It sounds like your usb card is fried.
I had this exact issue 2 months ago, I was lucky that the vendor exchanged it for a brand new phone.
It was probably fried by your usb cable. See if you can exchange the phone under warranty. Ask the vendor that you purchased it from, to honor the warranty, since contacting Leeco is difficult. Worst case, you will need to replace the USB card, its about $10.

VYeah, i guess it's the USB card... But there are two problems :
- its pretty Hard to disassemble a lepro 3
- i think that the original pro3 USB card comes with the vibrer, the speaker, and the microphone, and i didnt find any USB card with all of this on aliexpress...
He is no longer under warranty (15months vs 12)
Edit : another strange effect is that on cydras's ROM, the phone actually charges when powered on (but slow). On AICP 7.1.2, it juste says "plugged, not charging" when powered on

You are either bricked or its your battery, if bricked and the computer doesn't recognise the phone it still might recognise the port

Hey tsongming i have read quite a lot of posts from you in the last few days before commenting, i already tried before hand everything you said to get my phone detected by my computer and it still dosent get detected:
- tried multiple computers
- multiple cables
- and just in case, different driver versions.
Tried it all except the EDL Amazon cable you recommended in another one of your posts.
I have read that if i can't get it detected then theres nothing i can do.. which would suck.
ATM i have google pixel, beforehand i had AICP which worked really horrible on battery issues and would sometimes crash it. I have been using stock cable for 2 years which as i've read it the past few days is a terrible a ideia, and stock charger but as you say and qualcomm, i also believe its ok.
At this time i believe the problem might be a burned USB Card or the Battery itself bugging out(?) but since it charges when turned off (e.g: charged for 8 hours in supercharge to 84% =S), im clueless.
Since you said that you had the same issue on one of your Leeco, anything else you can recommend for me to try?
P.S: its worth noticing, i can Fastboot, Recovery to TWRP and turn it on, if indeed bricked i would call it a soft brick i guess..

If you can boot to Fastboot and Recovery, Then its not bricked. Your software is probably corrupted from a power spike or short. Its possible that your issue is just the USB card, which you can find for under $10, on Alibaba, Ebay and even Amazon.
Note that when you remove the screen do not use a Hairdryer to heat up the glue, there is way too much glue! You will need to briefly use a heat gun , and the screen will slide off with ease, the display and battery connectors are the lego type.. There are demonstration videos on Youtube.
Since you are removing the screen, you might as well replace the battery while your at it ( It should not cost more than $12)
If you want to buy a Backup LCD they are about $18 to $25 . ( definitely, recommend since there is a good chance of breaking the LCD, that you currently have)
If you order the screen, remove your LCD screen first to make sure that you order the correct one. They come with either black or yellow Flex cables ( not sure why) But if you have yellow obviously order yellow.
Make sure that the USB card is all inclusive and includes the chips, you are better off to spend a few dollars more for the better quality board. Sometimes the cheap ones come with missing chips for quick charge and CDLA ( Read the reviews)
Good Luck.
If you don't feel comfortable doing this, you can find Leeco Repair with a Google Search, or you can use TaoBao to get a "guaranteed fix", for really cheap. ( Even if its the motherboard ) They replace components and resolder) I doubt its the motherboard, but it's possible. In my case, I fried the motherboard and the phone still came on , but would not boot to system, also the screen was very pixelated.
