Can't connect with ADB. - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't connect to my phone with ADB. I've tried with SE's adb drivers and the ones from Android SDK, but none of them work, it starts the daemon but it's unable to recognise any device.
I'm on Android 2.1 with "USB dbg" enabled. My system is a XP64 SP2 with the correct drivers. Any ideas?

Does it not recognise it at all or will just not mount?

I can mount it, but if I type "adb devices" in cmd it returns a blank list. I've switched of my firewall and antivirus, but it does not resolve anything. I've seen that when running adb, it loads two instances of adb.exe and then kills one, also when trying to root with SuperOneClick it loads and maintains two instances.

I've had trouble with it most of the day but seem to have sorted it now, but it does show with adb devices for me so not sure.

Once you update to 2.1, you need to update the drivers.
The easiest way is to install Sony Ericsson's PC Companion (and update): http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/pccompanion/xperiax10
I was wondering about this too. Sony Ericsson Update Service would detect the phone in flash mode, but not ADB or SuperOneClick. Once I installed PC Companion, it was fine.
Check your Device Manager. I'd bet you have a yellow exclamation mark.

(Q)Can't get Fastboot to work

ok. I'm tired so go easy on me. I'm running Windows 7 32bit. I have Dell PC Suite installed. I've got the full SDK installed. I've also got the R288920 drivers installed. I've been trying (since 3.00am) to get Fastboot to work and it would seem no matter what i do i just cannot. My Streak (Steve's 1.90) shows up in Device Manager as "Android ADB Interface". I've tried all 6 usb ports on my pc. I've tried Adb Composite. Adb Bootloader. Adb Interface and nothing works. I should also mention i had to do a clean install of Windows yesterday and prior to that Fastboot worked fine. I'm a semi-noob and i'm convinced that this is a driver problem. My question is this, can someone please tell me where i've gone wrong? As the man with the steering wheel down his pants said to the Doctor "this is driving me nuts".
Problem solved. Fastboot file was corrupted.

[Q] Unable to find ADB Interface

Hi everybody!
I've been trying to root and upgrade my Tablet S, now that it's possible in release5a. But whenever I plug the tablet to my Windows 7 PC, even debugging mode is enabled, I can't see the Android ADB interface in the device manager.
I just see the tablet listed under "Portable Devices".
I did a factory reset, but nothing.
Do you know if I'm missing any steps? It's not about drivers at this time, as there's no device detected. I tried this on two computers with the same results...
Thanks a lot!!!

Did you install the ADB drivers? If no, then install them. If yes, then reinstall them. Also, you may have to install them manually. Also make sure you have the tablet's USB debugging set to ON.
Go to BluechipJ's Automated ADB Driver Installer for Sony Tablet S and P for drivers and additional information.

Hi, I ended up solving it by praying to the windows god.
Turns out the tablet was working correctly as an MTP device, but I was able to modify the hardware item so it would be seen as a Composite MTP device. Then the ADB interfase appeared and then I was able to install drivers to it.
Anyways, thanks for the time

Unlocked the bootloader, tried to flash recovery, no can't connect to ADB

As the title suggests, bootloader unlocked no problem, tablet was connecting to ADB at the time, tried to flash recovery which as far as I can tell was not successful (I can't boot to recovery, get the injured Android icon), now I can't connect to ADB (get the "List of devices attached" result). So I'm completely stuck, can't move forward, can't go back to stock, what do I do?
Edit: Apparently it's an issue with my PC, my wife's PC worked fine, why it worked to unlock the bootloader and then stopped I have no idea. Can anyone link me to a solution to get ADB working on my PC again? I tried removing/re-installing drivers, rebooting, you name it, no luck.
With your device booted into recovery or the system do you get anything in device manager? If you get a device with a yellow exclamation mark, right click it. Go to where it allows you to choose a driver from a list on your computer. Select adb android composite (or something like that)

Thanks for replying.
So before unlocking the bootloader, with USB debugging enabled I could get the tablet to connect using the ADB driver and could access it with ADB but could not access storage for file transfer, with USB debugging disabled and switching the driver manually to the MTP driver I could access storage but not ADB. I have had other device drivers installed on this PC for my Galaxy phones, I had issues initially with the tablet connecting but showing a yellow exclamation mark, then I removed all of the Android USB devices using USBDeview and installed the 15 second ADB tool to get it working, I'm on Windows 8.1 BTW.
After unlocking the bootloader, with USB debugging enabled I cannot get the tablet to connect using the ADB driver and but it does show as an ADB device with no yellow exclamation mark, I just get the "List of devices attached" result and anything that tries to access the device via ADB hangs or fails. I can still switch the driver to MTP and access the storage just fine.
My wife's PC is a Win7 box and has never had android drivers or ADB installed, I used the 15 Second ADB installer on her PC and the tablet works for ADB and storage access with USB debugging turned on, so there's something I'm missing that needs to be wiped out or reset on my box.

Computer Doesn't Reconize Device in Fastboot

Ive been trying to root my device for over a month now, and i havent had any luck. Ive used different USB drivers software and Hardware. Ive used different cords from stock to the ones from my job and friends yet i still have failed to root it. ADB reconizes my device no problem when its booted up, but as soon as i boot into FASTBOOT mode my computer doesnt reconize the device. What am I doing wrong or am I doomed to have an unrooted device?
I had the same issue with windows Vista.
Grab the attached file. Unzip to wherever.
Plug your phone into the pc IN fastboot mode. Open Device Manager.
Find the messed up driver, usually indicated with a yellow symbol in the list.
Right click it and update driver. Don't let it auto search for one. Manually tell it where that driver is that you just unzipped. It will show a list and chose the android bootloader one. It will warn you stating it's not correct, ignore that warning.
If you need more detailed instructions just holla.
Peace.
Did you try fastboot commands when in the bootloader? Remember that adb is only for when the device is booted up normally. Just making sure...

open device manager, you will see the device with the yellow symbol, right click and select update driver software
after browse my computer for driver software --> let me pick from a list of device drivers in my pc --> android adb interface! . click on yes. this worked for me

[Q] [LG VS930] Unable to get ADB commands to work

Alright, I've tried installing the drivers from Verizion and also using the drivers from the Android SDK and either way I have the same problem. ADB devices shows my phone, however whenever I try to push, pull, or reboot (the only commands I have any use for atm) the command prompt hangs like it's trying to access the device but no matter how long I leave it the device will not reboot, nor will any files appear in the correct folders on either the device or my computer.
I'm trying to root my phone and this is a pretty major roadblock.
Note:
USB Debugging enabled
ADB drivers installed
Phone shows up on "adb devices"
There is no error or any other output in the console. The best way to describe this problem is that ADB hangs.
I'm running Windows 8.1 and my phone is running Android 4.1.2
Also, I don't know if this is normal but, In order to get the notification that "USB debugging connecting" I have to use the internet connection option on the phone. When using MTP, Charge only and PTP that message doesn't appear and I don't see an ADB device show up in device man.
Things I've Tried
Uninstalling all Android drivers and redownloading/installing them after restart
Restarting my phone multiple times
Running adb kill-server / adb start-server
Changing USB ports7
Thanks!
Try installing drivers from LG. This seems the right one but double check:
