Xperia Ray :: PC Companion's WIFI Pairing Does Not Work For ICS
Mar 17, 2012
4.1.A.0.562. An attempt to pair the phone and PC Companion ends up with message "Your current phone software can not connect to PC Companion using Wi-Fi".IMHO it is time to provide downgrade option in the PC Companion, too many problems with ICS.
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.
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
Since the Android ICS update we lost the function of connecting Xperia Ray to the computer using WIFI connection. Is this function coming back any time soon?
I am unable to pair my Z2 phone to pc companion anymore. Steps that lead to this: Â 1. SETUP a working connection to PC (both USB and WIFI) 2. Reset phone to factory settings. 3. Retried to setup the connections 4. Connection via USB works (pc companion recognizes my phone) 5. CANNOT SETUP CONNECTION VIA WIFI Â The PC does not appear anymore under XPERIA CONNECTIVTY > USB CONNECTIVITY (even though it is connected via USB). When I try to setup the WIFI Connection it says that my pc is already paired... but it does NOT appear in the list. Only option I have is Pair with PC.
Prior to the gingerbread update I had my personal email adds set up (Tiscali.co.uk) Now after the update it doesn't work. It takes the incoming settings but not the outgoing settings.Also previously I could use my WIFI and now it just has a yellow warning triangle on top of the witrelssssignall saying "Limited Connectivity".
I got this phone yesterday, and everything's been working great except for wifi.I have wifi at home, and the phone is able to connect to it (obtain an ip address, show signal strength, etc.), but internet is not available.i cannot browse or use the market application because it's not really connected to the internet.I only have this problem at home, however. Wifi on my x10 works great everywhere else.My brother's phone and both of our laptops are able to access wifi at home, so I'm thinking it's a settings problem on my phone?
the wi fi doesnt work.i disable stamina mode and turn it off and on several time and make keep wifi on during sleep "always" and still have the problem the wi fi and bluetooth too
Had issues for a couple weeks now and basically now WiFi connection is useless for it. Tried resetting the router, cleaned the sim, checked net speeds, closed apps etc and have a constant problem. One of the reasons I got the Z5 was the remote play for the PS4 and I think I've been able to use it twice. Every other time states connection too low. Can't watch YouTube on it states connection error. Can't even WhatsApp half the time.
Since I installed the latest build 2.1.A.0.435 I am unable to use my Sony headset MW600 with my X10. I tried calling myself or dialing out to locate the bluetooth button but have been unsuccessful at this moment.
I'm having trouble getting my X10 mini pro to pair with my laptop via bluetooth so thought I'd post here for some help. I've no problem connecting via USB.In 'Settings' -> 'Wireless & Network Settings' -> 'Bluetooth Settings' -> 'Bluetooth Devices' my laptop is visible, and underneath it says 'Pair with this device.When I press that I have a Bluetooth pairing request, which says 'To pair YOUR PC, confirm that it is showing the passkey: 123456' (number changes each time). I choose the 'Pair' option but keep getting back 'Attention - There was a problem pairing with YOUR PC because the pin or passkey is incorrect.' How do I enter this passkey? I get the feeling there's a simple solution to this that I'm missing. I've paired the phone with both the MBS 100 and 200 with no problems at all. The laptop is a Sony Vaio and bluetooth is definitely on - is there a compatibility issue between the two?
I paired my z3 with the bluetooth device of my Land Rover. The first time, the z3 ask me the security code that I wrote and all was good.
The system of my car didn't ask a code cause for the Land Rover the code is 2121 for each device. But I must write the code each time that I'm getting in my car. Other devices is connecting automatically after a first paring but with my z3 not.
When i try to pair my Desktop and my Xperia Active vÃa Bluetooth, i always get two different pairing codes (i'm using the assistant from windows 7 64bits) on the screen of my Active it shows a code, and my PC shows another completly different, no matter how many times i tried, is always the same, and is imposible for me to connect my smartphone to my PC.
I´m the owner of a fantastic and great Xperia Mini (ST15i). I´ve been using it for 4 months, and it works and navigates really good. My prior mobile was the old Xperia X10 Mini (ST10i), another fantastic mini mobile phone.
The thing is that with my old ST10i, there was not problem for discovering the Handsfree Bluetooth of my Audi A4 2.0 TDI DPF 143CV (from the 2009), but my current ST17i doesn´t discover it by any means.
is there any Application (Android) for it in order to discover more BT Handsfrees, allowing me to discover and pair it my A4?.
I want to connect my xperia pro to my car audio system. (Bluetooth of my car audio system has a pairing code) when I want to connect, the page of entering pairing code not appear and an error will appear in screen ("wrong pairing code").
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.
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.
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 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 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.
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?
