Xperia X10 :: Will Not Connect To SE PC Companion On Computer Via Bluetooth
Aug 29, 2010
Trying to connect PC Companin via Bluetooth i get to the point where I enter a four digit code on the phone, then immediately recieving a message on my computer that connecting thrue bluetooth is not possible, then urging me to use the USB cable. Bluetooth is activated on both items. I'm running Windows 7 on my laptop.
my problem is that it does connect with PC companion with USB, but not with bluetooth.It does get paired, the pc sees the phone, correct name, gives me the 4 digit code, and put them in the phone, but when I put in the phone, it seems ok, until PC Companion just says I cannot connect via BT, and tells me to try with USB cable.Why would I try with BT, for any other reason that not wanting to use the cable?Well, anyway, BT in the PC is ok (i used to connect with a Palm Treo 1 week ago), and BT in the phone is ok, it connect with car's handsfree.
I can't synchronize my X10 (Andoid 2.1) with PC Companion via bluetooth despite being able to synchronoze the same phone with the same software (PC Companion). I start PC Companion and select to connect the phone via bluetooth and following the on-line instruction and manage to pair the phone but recieve an error message almost directly that PC Companion is not able to connect to the phone at this time and I am asked to try again later. According to X10 the pairing is succesful.
I have tried with two different computers with exactly the same result. When I check for software updates both the phone and PC Companion are reported to be of the latest versions. Furthermore, I have another phone, a SE Satio, and I am able to succesfully sync the Satio with the same laptop and the same PC Companion software; this indicates to me that the problem is not with the laptop, bluetooth or PC Companion. It strongly indicates a bug in the X10.
Would it be possible to have SE to clarify this with a simple Yes,... or No,...?Just to describe the problem: I can synchronize my X10 (Andoid 2.1) with PC Companion via the USB-cable but not via bluetooth. When I start PC Companion, select to connect the phone via bluetooth and following the on-line instruction I manage to pair the phone but directly receive an error message that PC Companion is not able to connect to the phone at this time (and I am asked to try again later). According to X10 the pairing is successful. I have tried with two different computers with exactly the same result. When I check for software updates both the phone and PC Companion are reported to be of the latest versions. Furthermore, I have another phone, a SE Satio, and I am able to succesfully sync the Satio with the same laptop and the same PC Companion software via bluetooth; this indicates to me that the problem is not with the laptop, bluetooth or PC Companion. It strongly points towards the X10...
I am trying to upgrade my X10 from software version 1.6 to 2.1.First of all I think it's very annoying that there are 2 different applications from Sony Ericsson called Update Service and PC Companion. Why not just have 1 application and make it less complicated for the users.However I first tried with Update Service, but it keeps telling me that my software is up to date and all I can choose then is "Exit". There are no settings and nothing else you can do.
Then I tried with PC Companion which detects that there is a new software update available for my phone and when I try to upgrade it fails on preparing the computer for software upgrade, see picture.
When I connect my phone with my pc via pc software "PC Companion", it did not recognise my device, driver MTP didnt install in pc.how can i connect with pc companion.
But from couple of days if I connect my phone to pc with usb cable , PC companion is not detecting the phone when phone is in media transfer mode. Earlier it was perfectly working and I was able to access sd card data from phone and from pc as well at the same time. Also pc companion shows proper details and also shows it is running latest software.Not all is gone, if i connect with media tranfer mode, it doesn't detect anything. If change it to mass storage mode, it is unmounting from phone and showing as "Phone memory".I have tried following in mobile
1) settings-> manage apps -> created MTSapp cache
2) rebooted phone "N" number of time and tried connection.
3) removed data from phone (the message pc companion shows there is more data on phone and it will take time). but didn't work even after deleting my music, pics etc...
In my pc: re-installed everyting pc companion latest version.Nothing worked for media tranfer mode. Even it is not charging battery too when connected to phone.Is there anything left to test SONY device and software?
so i got the notification on the new software update nd it says connet to a pc to recieve it. then u get told to download this pc companion. so i have done. then i notice it says no phone connected. so i click how to connect i then get to stage two and it says connect usb cable to your computer and then to your phone so i do that and nothing happens. i wait 30 seconds and nothing happens i disconect my phone and connect it again and still nothing happens all its doing is charging my phone. i've done it over and over again and nothing happens.
I have a Z2 and the latest software update arrived yesterday and I want to update my phone but pc companion can't recognize my phone and I have tried all of the following instructions that it gave me but still nothing!
I can't connect my X10 mini pro with PC Companion although I tried all the steps and supports instruction (reconnect the USB plug, tunrn off then turn on the phone, uninstall then reinstall the PC Companion, etc...). It appeared (a thousand times) "No phone connected".
After trying many times and after disabling the AV program I could install the Android 2.1.I installed some free apps from the android market.Now when I try to connect the phone through PC Companion, the phone is restarting several times and I cant do any file management in the sd card
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
i checked on the sony website, they say ics update for xperia mini is available but when i connect to pc companion or update service, it says you phone already has the latest software but it has GB, please tell me how to fix it.
My SI number is 1246-7737 and I want to accept the update with ICS.But it said my software is up to date however then i cannot connect to PCC or US .What the problem it was?
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.
I am not able to Connect my Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 min pro through PC Companion either by USB or by Bluetooth. I tried all the permutations and combinations suggested by Sony Ericsson support pages, yet no resort.
However, stragenly I was able to upgrade from Android 1.6 to Android 2.1 through PC Companion (though PC Companion refuses to detect). Now my handset say there are updates available and to be updated through PC Companion. However, this time PC Companion is not bending in any direction to support me.
My previous sony ericsson phone had a PC companion startup screen which included the option 'Connect to Internet'. This new Xperio neo V, when you start PC companion does not offer this, only Support Zone, Contacts Setup, Media Go, Sync Zone and File Manager. What has happened to the 'Internet Connect' option? This was very useful for connecting a PC to the internet.
How many users have lost the feature to connect to PC wirelessly after ICS upgrade?My phone's (Xperia mini pro) SI : 1249-0751 Android version 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431)
When I try to connect my E7 via USB or Bluetooth to my Windows 7 computer Ovi says connecting but never connects. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all Nokia software on the computer to no avail, I can access the mass storage device directly via the usb cable and see the contents.
I have been having a few problems with my ray ever since i got it. I have been having a few problems with connecting it to a computer using either MTP or MSC. I have sent a message to sony about this problem and they asked me to turn off all my firewalls and anti viruses on my computer and to then try again but then no luck. After some time the mini usb port wasnt working at all and i was sent a new one. As soon as i got it i tried to connect it to my computer but no luck it wasn't picking it up. I also tried it on my laptop and on my mac but yet again nothing worked. Im not sure what im supposed to do now as i want to update my phone to Ice Cream and the updating app on the phone isn't allowing me to do it.
After upgrading my phone to ICS, my computer can't find my phones SD card like it used to.The phones icon does not appear in My computer.Neither can the PC companion.
I recently updated to 2.1 and now, all of a sudden, whenever i try to connect my phone to a computer the phone reboots. It starts off as normal asking me to connect phone or install pc companion, but after i choose one first it jus goes blank and then says no sim card connected, then it completely reboots. When it finally starts up it just shows the charging symbol but no "connect phone etc" option.
I am able to send and recieve all kinds of files from/to computer and my phone (Neo V running on ICS 4.0.4), even able to use it as a speaker phone (via bluetooth), but I am unable to get my music files playing on my computer via bluetooth. Btw while configuring my phone on my Laptop (which is running on Win 7) it couldn't install one Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver
my neo v was connecting fine till i tried to update my phone using update service , after then it is refusing to connect to any of the computer ,tried in many computers with many data cables, now im unable to repair it using pc companion bcz the phone is not connecting.
I just got my xperia Play today, and everything appears fine, but it will not stay connected to my computer! when i plug it in it will connect for a few few seconds then rapidly disconnect 3 times, wait a while and do the same thing over and over again. This also prevents me from doing anything on it at all while it is connected due to rapid switches i phone mode (Media Transfer / normal)
