as suggested in another forum, i disabled one of my usb root hubs in the device manager....it didnt give me that enumeration error and installed the driver but my pc only detects my phone in flash mode(even though i press the button for fastboot)...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevsman:
It's a common problem with the fastboot drivers at the moment.

The really strange thing is that things still don't work properly if you have 8.1 with XP running in vmware.

Use another PC, which has earlier version of Windows. There are no fastboot drivers, which work with Windows 8.1, nor there is a solution to make the older ones work.

I read in Microsoft Q&A that the fastboot issue in 8.1 is a windows issue where they forgot to implementing fastboot.

The tech guys said they should forward this to the dev team and it should be fixed soon.

I read this maybe 2-3 months ago and I think they just ignored to fix this issue.

Hopefully I got a few laptops with different OS so I'm saved :P

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dani010:
there isnt any solution on windows 8.1 ???
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevsman:
I thought I'd clear up the confusion in this thread a little....

At this time there is NO way of using Fastboot with Windows 8.1. We all know that Fastboot Drivers and capability is what's needed in order to be able to flash custom Kernels on our 2011 Xperia phones..

In previous releases of windows the Fastboot drivers would work even if you ran a Virtual machine and flashed from within that enviroment. This however isn't possible with 8.1 either.

So to simplify that ---- If you have Windows 8.1 you can't set up a virtual machine with any previous Windows release as it still uses the host OS's drivers to connect to the Virtual enviroment.

Solutions =

Install an earlier version of Windows

Dual boot your 8.1 with an earlier version of windows

Use a live Linux CD and use Fastboot from within that!

If there are enough replys to this thread, then I will look into teaming up with a friend, to see if we can build a Live Windows CD that has the required Fastboot, ADB and Sony drivers incorperated into it.

The problem with that for alot of users is that the flashing process will have to be done through ADB commands. (Quite simple really)

I don't think it's really worth the time to undertake the arduous task of trying to incorperate Flashtool into the Live CD, but again, if there's enough interest then I'll look into it...

The first thing will be to try and contact the Flashtool creator to ask permission to incorporate iot into the CD release anyway :)

I'll keep a view on this thread and decide what to day in a day or two!!

I don't get it! Why 8.1 is so different then w8 ? and whats keeping us from using fastboot ...we installed driver and still can't use it ! sorry , noob question!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Windows 8.1 uses Microsoft's drivers, which do not support fastboot. Earlier versions of Windows used the manufacturer's drivers which support fastboot. Right now, what's happening on Windows 8.1 is that it cannot manage the device while it is in fastboot mode, that's why it will always show "unknown device"

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spannernick:
Disgo, a technological company based in Mayo Ireland, has announced the immediate UK release of the latest device in their tablet range, the Disgo Tablet 9000. Being a relatively unknown brand, Disgo has launched the tablet with a budget user in mind, rather than try to compete directly with either Apple or Google.

According to the Irish firm's website, a potential buyer can expect the following specifications when choosing the Disgo Tablet 9000: 1.0 GHz Cortex A8 Processor, 1 GB DDR3 and 8 GB onboard storage (expandable) with a 9.7-inch TN display (1024x768). Other details include a front (0.3 MP) and rear (2.0 MP) facing camera, a battery which should last for 5 hours and a Mali 400 GPU. Clearly the iPad with Retina Display or the Nexus 7 have little to worry about.

To sweeten the deal, Disgo has incorporated Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) as the tablet's OS, knowing how the general public can't seem to get enough of Google's ubiquitous software. The price for such extravagance? £149.99,You can get it for £89 secondhand. With the latest iPad retailing from £399 (~$634) for the basic 16 GB model Disgo will be likely hoping to have found a niche in the tablet market. However, with the Nexus 7 available at £180 or less, it seems Disgo might find their niche restricted sooner rather than later.

Its a shame there is no roms for this,its not a bad tablet but a bit slow.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StatusQuo209:
Good point. from what I understand, the only reason why Google stop supporting the Nexus S, is because it did not have enough RAM. Google is pretty good on their software updates on their older flagships. I think this is a good buy..

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
You probably should have asked this in the Nexus 4 forum.

It's a Nexus, Google will support it for more than another year. They only stopped supporting the two earliest Nexus since it lacks the hardware to run the new OS and ability to receive such large over the air updates (low ram and too small /system partition to hold the system files). The Nexus 4 is a powerful device I wouldn't be surprised if it'll get updates for atleast 2 more years. If it wasn't for needing the best spec or playing high graphical games, the Nexus 4 will probably work fine for another 3 years. It still get Android version earlier than any other non-Nexus devices, although the battery life and camera quality might not be up to standard anymore. Gaming is only a problem because of the thermal throttling which kicks in at 39*C, but if you flash custom kernel you can raise it to 60*C or higher.

The Nexus 4 does have Band 4 LTE that works with T-Mobile if you flash the LTE compatible baseband.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atlas2k:
Hi Guys,

I have the following problem:

I have an Samsung Galaxy SII and have never flashed anything on it, just did Upgrades via KIES to 4.1.2 (I think). It´s not branded by a Telekom Company or anything. Just a stock Phone from Samsung.

A few days ago I used that phone, put it into my pocket and after 2 hours when I wanted to use it again, it was stuck on the boot logo (you know the Galaxy GT9100 .... Screen)

If I have the power cable attached it just displays an empty battery and the circle is NOT "circling". Battery symbol is not getting "full"

Now I can´t get into the recovery mode BUT I can get into the download mode.

I already tried to Flash with ODIN but it always gives me an error like this:

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atlas2k:
Alright I can do whatever I want. Odin always Fails at the NAND write step.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Which means one of two things:-

1) I don't know how much of Hopper's thread you read, but I'm fairly sure he makes the point that fixing cases like these is often a matter of persevering. You keep trying stuff until it works. The first 11 flash attempts might not work, but for whatever reason the 12th works. You can keep doing that if you want, or it could be

2) The NAND really is borked. If that's truly the case, then yes, only a motherboard replacement is fixing it (either a new one by a service centre or a 2nd hand one by you/a local mobile repair shop), and you can kiss goodbye any chance of recovering data from the phone.

Now, if it was my phone, I know what I'd be doing before I gave up & declared it a case of option 2 (but YMMV, obviously).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atlas2k:
right, so is the storage fixed on the Mainboard and not a seperate module (like harddrives in Computers)?

So in case I switch the Mainboard I cannot take the old storage to the new Mainboard.

What exactly do you mean with "mount usb storage while phone connected to pc"?

When I connect the phone to the pc, Windows always tells me that there is a device that can´t be recognized (don´t know the exact error message) and that leads to no access to the phone by the Windows Explorer, Kies, ...

My question is the fact that out of the 47 Meg available, its already showing approximately 20 Meg in use. In other words, I can use only 27 Meg as RAM when the memory utility is not showing any running programs. Is this what other people's Wizrds showed on a clean boot before running any third party programs? 30 Meg seems like alot of overhead for WM5.0.
