Did you enabled developer settings? If you did then turn it off. If you didnt then you have installed invalid drivers. Try searching for official drivers if all fails.

My guess this is about the USB data "sticks", via OTG. No idea if this would work, though...

The Sony Smartwatch firmware updates automatically via the Bluetooth connection with the phone. My watch updated its firmware the first time I paired it with the phone and had the software installed. Is there a particular reason to struggle with the USB method?
Mine did the same. Checked this morning through USB just to see but was up to date.
I don't think it's necessary to struggle with the USB as it'll come automatically through Playstore and Bleutooth.
I uninstalled...

Hmm, that's curious, mine is still at .46, .80 is supposed to be the big update so I wonder what .60 is? Any noticeable changes on your watch? Could you head to the Play Store on your phone and check the version number of the SmartWatch 2 app from Sony, not Smart Connect. Mine is showing as 13 Dec, the 1.3.19 version.
As far as I am aware, there are no USB drivers for the smartwatch, so trying to plug it in to your PC shouldn't get you very far at all, unless there's some new tool from Sony I don't know about.

The one you quoted was the old firmware. Look carefully in your firmware version. There is a 3 instead of a 0 somewhere which makes yours the latest at the moment.

Install them the same way but you have to allow unsigned drivers.
Edit Google tool adb fastboot drivers xda and try that

if need more help to disable Driver signature on windows 8..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM1MN8QZhnk
Will it not cause problems due to incompatible drivers?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
1. If you get the drivers from Google (as part of the SDK) you do NOT have to disable driver signing
2. When Windows asks where the drivers are, point it to the android_winusb.inf file in the SDK /extras/google/usb_driver folder and just allow it to install
3. Do the same for fastboot as well
Works for me, and this is with USB 3.0 as well - no funny work arounds required

You need to turn of driver verification from advanced startup options and install the drivers in windows 8.x

How to enable USB Mass Storage mode

When I connect my phone to my PC, it shows up as a MTP device.
How do I make it show up as a USB Mass Storage device (aka like a pendrive)?

Pretty sure it doesn't, unless OPO completely rewrote the USB volume mounting routines... Android support for it was completely removed in Jellybean or KitKat I believe.

MTP isn't nice to use, SMB servers are too slow.

I rooted phone and can't find hotspot menu. Anyway to bring it back.
