I'm a Z1 user about to buy a Z5. Today I've built a new PC & when i went to install PC Companion from the Z1 or download it says I need to update it before using & then crashes. I've since worked out that Sony has released Xperia Companion but that doesn't appear to have all the features that PC Companion had, especially contacts / calendar sync. No sync, whats the use.
Someone help a bloke out URGENTLY.

Sorry, i didn't make my point properly. Sony have removed the back end support for PC Companion so when the old version goes to ping the server & grab the updates that server no longer exists & thats why the whole thing keels over. Sony has screwed us. And I cannot find a newer version than 2.10.259 anywhere online. Stuffed if i can even work out what the latest version was, before Sony took it all down & brought out Xperia Companion, which is really only a software updater / backup client.
why dont you use your email account to backup calendar and contacts?

Like @spaha-bih says, use your Google email account.
To elaborate: Sync your Z1 email account with G-Drive, when setting up your new Z5 say yes to transfer data from old device and follow instructions.
It doesnt solve your issue with PC Companion vs Xperia Companion but at least all your data is transfered.

How do I copy installed app from phone to PC to share ? I am using Sony Ericsson x8.
Hi all,

thanks
First off all, do u have an Xperia tipo or an Xperia S?
This is probably a software bug
Try repair via pc companion if your bootloader is still locked
Or flash ftf via flashtool

I've installed NXT kernel and Xperia Ultimate HD 5 on my Neo L.
Almost everything works fine, response is quickly and smooth, however, I have two questions:
1. In my PC Companion, the device name changes to Xperia PLAY. I know the rom is originally for PLAY, but I've installed Neo L patch, doesn't it corrected the device name?
2. I'm unable to access to service menu via entering *#*#7378423#*#* in dialer, it behaves just like nothing happens.
I recently switched from xperia m to xperia l. I had no problem with xperia m but sonce i got xperia l, i cannot copy files from my pc to the phone. When i try to copy files, they get corrupted and i cannot open any files. But when i use a sdcard reader rather than the phone itself, there is no problem. I used both MSC and MTP modes. The MTP mode gives "devices has stopped responding" error and MSC corrupts any files. What could cause the problems?

will try again.
strange thing happened. i send some files, reboot the phone and then the file gets curropted. tried using different sdcards but same problem. is this the proprietary property of this phone?
Before advising me to move into the 21st century, please let me explain what I'm trying to do and why.
I've set up my Asterisk PBX to use a mobile phone as a GSM gateway using Bluetooth. Asterisk is a bit picky about which mobiles will actually work but by trial and error I've found that a borrowed SE C510 works a treat. So having 'invested' in a junk C510 from eBay I find that there is no audio in this configuration so I'm hoping to update its firmware to the same level as the working one, viz. R1FA034.
I've tried SEUS and PC Companion but both fail, trying to update to the latest version. I cannot run Xperia Companion as I gave up with Windows after Vista.
So finally to my questions:
1. Is there a version of SEUS or PC Companion which still works and supports the C510?
2. Is there 3rd-party software which will load the firmware and is R1FA034 available for download anywhere?
Google hasn't been my friend so far.
Thanks.
