Are these 2 functions similar or different? repairing the phone only takes 4 minutes and according to pc companion this will replace my current software with new. While update service takes less than an hour and downloads a software that will also replace my current software? which of the two will probably fix the software issue that i'm having regarding SMS reception?

why does PCC says that update is a failure? before the update it repairs my phone but after it does not.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am thinking of updating my xperia ray to the latest build 4.1.B.0.431When I updated my phone to 4.0.3 i rooted it and removed most of the bloatwares. After doing that i didnt face most of the issues reported for 4.0.3 ICS release. Now my question is, If i update my phone to the latest build will it automatically unroot? Do i have to root it again using doomlords method?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI received a message on my XPeria Mini Pro about the 4.1.B.0.587 Update. In fact, I can not install it. When I start the PC Companion software, it finds the connected Phone. Then I click on update. In the following window I click "Accept" and then the software should prepare the PC for the update. But after one second it stops and returns to Start without any comment. When I start Sony Mobile Update Service then it checks for new updates. As soon as the check is over, the program terminates without any comment. Is there a third way to upgrade?
My config:
PC with AMD, Windows 7 64 Bit, 16GB RAM
It is safe to use the repair option for the OS of the PC companion. I want to use it as my phone is acting a little bit strange.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have upgraded my SK17i to ICS when I first bought it and update it again with 587 update last months. But my phone have this lag problem so, I thought I repair it via PC Companion today. The problem is, phase 3 (updating) phase doesn't seems to progress. The progress bar is at zero for an hour now and my internet is connected.
Update: This is taking too long for me to wait, I'm cancelling the update by clicking the [x] button. I hope it doesn't touch anything on the system and just downloading the update file.
Update 2: I cannot boot my phone now, it shows yellow triangle with exlamation mark.
I am (was) the owner of a Xperia X10. Unfortunately in late 2010 I had the common fault of the phone not charging. So I sent of my phone to get repaired at the Sony Ericsson accredited repair center, SBE. About a week after sending it of they said that the damage was covered by the warranty and that they would send me a brand new replacement X10. However, when I got the phone back the memory card was missing. When I rung up to enquire about it's whereabouts they had no idea where it was and refused to replace it, even though on the form I sent with the phone I declared I had sent the memory card. Obviously I was angry, since was there was literally nothing I could do about it. I got over that. However, about a month ago the exact same fault occoured. Since I knew the damage was covered by warranty and the chances were that a I would receive a new phone I was all to keen to send it off to SBE. With the knowledge than my memory card had been lost last time I used SBE I was extra careful to only send items which could have attributed to the fault. These included the phone itself, the battery and the charger. After about 2 weeks of it being away (I posted it on next day special delivery) they finally got back to me with the news that the fault wasn't covered by the warranty. Clearly I was pretty angry, so I phoned orange, who advised me to have it sent back and then take it in to them to have a look at. £10.00 later and my phone was sent back to me... missing the charger. I was fuming! And once again, because I had no proof that I had sent it they refused to help me in any way shape or form.So, if you break your Sony Ericsson, please, think before you send it of to SBE. Read around, I'm not the only one who's had a bad experience with SBE. I can't believe they are still accredited by Sony Ericcson.

Q1] why it is not showing update available when try to update from phone? Is it not fully released/ not compatible/ any bug/error ?
Q2] If i update to Ice Cream Sandwich and if any problem occurs then can i revert back to an old version of android i.e gingerbread.?
The Sony PC Companion has started showing that an update is available for my xperia pro as soon as i connect it. I happily selected the update option and on the first attempt it downloaded the update which took more than 10 mins in my case. Then it reboots the phone in the flash mode i believe and when it's time to install the update, simply comes out with an error that no update is available for your phone.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 9 Replies View RelatedPC Companion will detect my phone and download the updates but the problem is that when it asks me to turn off the phone and reconnect the USB cable (with back button pressed) i then get the PC's 'found new hardwear wizard' come up and ask me about installing new drivers, so i say yes- check online for updates and it then says there is a problem because the drivers may not be for Win XP x64 Pro, so nothing is installed.Meanwhile with PC Companion nothing happens.I have tried this several times to make sure i haven't made any mistakes, the only conclusion i can reach is that PC Companion doesn't work properly with my OS.
