So, am i the only person who connect get PC Companion to work with my phone? i try connecting and it says i need to be in MTP. Then it tells me how to get into MTP, which would be awesome, if it were correct!!! My notification bar does not have the option to switch between MTP and USB (MCP) or whatever its called. Im on the Xperia Play from verizon, R800x, running stock ROM 2.3.3
My phone has 4.1.B.0.431 software version. Here [URL]. I find that latest version is 4.1.B.0.587. but when I connect my phone with Sony PC Companion it's shows that my phone has already latest software. Why it's saying this thing. Here below I given all screen shots for reference.
Sony PC companion is not connecting to internet. Am able to browse internet with all other applications.
I've exewcuted the application as administrator but no use. I've downloaded the latest PC companion but still it's not working. Also I've tried in every way to coonect to internet i.e, by unmounting sd card, mounting sd card, USB debugging etc. PC companion is detecting my phone (XPERIA Neo V) but it is not connecting to internet.
i installed pc companion from the web, then i click en any function, a windows go out, and said: this aplication can be installed, try later; i installed from the cell phone too, whit the same result.
I tried connectiong my xperia play R800i to pc companion via wifi, followed the steps and everything but when it tells me to tap my pc name under connectivity settings/ trusted devices for wireless media transfer it's greyed out? Im running windows 7 x64 by the way and my phone has v2.3.4
The software on my SD card got accidentally deleted. MY phone does nor prompt to install PC Companion when I connect it to New PC /Notebook. How do I get it back to to my SD card ?
I want to update my Xperia Play to version 3.0.1.A.0.146, but PC Companion 2.0 wont let me. I change my phone to 'mediaoverdracht modus' ( it's in dutch, i don't know the english word ). It's the modus that is required for updating your phone, and it's step 3. But it fails every single time. PC Companion keeps saying it is unable to connect to my PLAY. No errorcode or nothing, it just gives the advice to reconnect my phone to the PC.
Sony Creative Software's "Media Go" program is able to "see" my Xperia PLAY (as is my operating system), but not Sony Ericsson's PC Companion... Furthermore, other Sony Ericsson handsets work fine with Media Go.In an effort to resolve this, I have tried both of the Xperia PLAY's connectivity modes (Media Transfer Protocol and Mass Storage Mode), un-installed the drivers and PC Companion, re-installing PC Companion and the drivers... All to no avail.
I downloaded PC Companion onto my computer so I could update my Xperia Play from 2.3.2 to 2.3.4. But the problem is when I connect my phone to my computer PC Companion says searching and then says no phone connected. When I try going to support center and go to how to connect to USB (which is an option that's suppose to get PC companion to notice my phone.). When the process is finished it still won't recognize the phone. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling PC companion but the same thing still happens. I also tried disconnecting and connecting my phone but the the same thing still happens.
I am used to my note 4 and how easy it is to play a movie from my mobile to TV....now with the 6p.....I haven't been able to play nor mirror my mobile screen to my Sony tv..

I cannot install PC companion from either of two laptops - am just getting "404 - not found". Might this be a security/firewall problem? I am running Kaspersky anti-virus plus Tune-up Utilities.

I can't install PC companion 2.10.027 on my Windows 7 Ultimate / 64bit system.Until this version was released I was using version 2.02.002 and it was OK. Recently, the update to the new versin was requested and it failed.After this, I have uninstalled the old version, so now I can't use any version of PC companion .I was trying many times to install the new version using Startme.exe on my phone and the downloaded PC Companion_2.10.027_Web.exe. The result was always the same - the installation was starting by displaying the title page of the new version and then was dying after a few seconds.When I reinstall version 2.02.002, it installs successfully, but before allowing to be used, it demands the update to the latest version, which, of course fails.I was trying to switch off all my firewall before the installation (without any change ).After each installation failure, the system log shows some error in NewUI.dll.
I am using 2.3.4 and I have no plans of using ICS on my xperia neo (SI :1246-9893). My query is if I continue use GB 2.3.4 and some time if I need to reinstall same GB 2.3.4 then can I able to update with update service or PC Companion???As per my knowledge it will always point to latest update. But I want to keep GB 2.3.4 as along as I am happy with it
During the firmware update process on PC Companion, I deliberately unplugged the phone and my PC now no longer recognizes the phone for performing an update again. Tried installing the firmware, holding the Back key while plugging into the computer etc but still it does not appear as connected. All I can see again and again is a block of color appeared at the bottom of the screen as shown in the photo attached. Have tried a hard reset by holding the left, right and power button at the same time but did not help too.
I decided to update my software on my xperia x10... so i tried to open my pc companion and remembered why i hadnt updated it before ... because the pc companion will not work! so i downloaded the pc companion again and guess what, it doesnt work.It downloads fine and then when i try to run it, it says "you must close all programs and restart your computer before running this program". so i do this and try again and it still says "you must close all programs and restart your computer before running this program".I have spent the last three hours resarting my computer making sure all my programs were shut.
Would anyone be able to assist, since it doesn't seem like you can open a support call directly with SE. I am simply trying to update my Experia X10 software and even though I am connected to the internet (and can browse and download anything from anywhere) I can't use the PC Companion software to update my phone. So I uninstalled it and reinstalled it (ver 2.0) and still it fails. It simply says 'unable to install or start phone software update components.'
I've used PC companion to update my X10 to Android 2.1. I've gone through all the steps and phases and the software is telling me it's up to date yet there are no changes to my phone at all except the wiping of all my files that I've backed up. The phone is still on 1.6, I still have only 3 home screens and everything else is the same. I've gone through the update twice now and nothing has changed.
this morning i have received an update of 4.1.B.0.431 in my pc companion but when i go fo r updating using pc companion in my laptop this error shows:Unable to install or start phone software update components?
my number SI 1255-8250 was already on the list, but still I cannot update via PC Companion, I'm from Chile and I have a neo V, my operator is Entel, contact them and does not intend to update, as I can get the latest update?
I would like to know do i need to update 2.1 in order to update 2.3.3 or Malaysia haven release 2.3.3? Because i cannot get 2.3.3 update using PC companion instead i get 2.1 update.
