Hi! I'm trying to manually update my phone to Nougat by flashing a 6.0 firmware but I'm not successful. All I get is a blinking green light and that's it. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the flash drivers, doing software repair via Xperia Companion, checking that USB debugging is enabled, but still nothing. I was wondering if anybody here has had the same experience as me.
Check the USB driver

Use a different USB port. If you're using a front port, try a back one. Even better, use a USB 3 port. I had the same with my front USB 2 ports, worked fine on one of the 3's.

Hey guys,
I'm having a big issue with flashtool - even tough I installed all the bundled drivers, and have the latest version of Flashtool with the patch, whenever i try to flash my Z5, i get a message that tells me the drivers are missing for this device.
Where can I get these flashtool-specific drivers for my Z5, or is there some other issue? I've searched online and no one seemed to have had problems flashing their Z5.
Thanks
Drivers are in the flashtool folder
If you're on Windows 8 they're probably not installing properly, look at the faq on the flashtool download website

Thanks, but as I mentioned in the post, I HAVE installed all the drivers that came in with the flashtool. Still no luck.
I have the same problem, do you find a solution?
PC Companion installed? Drivers come packaged with this as well. Never had a problem flashing and I'm on Windows 10 64 bit fast ring.

Do you use only Sony PC companion bundled drivers and Flashtool works whitout his proprietary drivers? T
Be sure to disable "Driver signature verification" before installing the drivers (if you're using Windows 8.1 or 10), otherwise they won't install properly and Flashtool will report that the drivers aren't installed.

Once it's done, you'll be able to install the drivers provided with Flashtool, and be able to flash your ROM

Just found that we can use the drivers from Sony Companion software. Power off the phone, hold volume down and connect the USB cable.
Start Sony companion software and click on Repair my Software. Drivers will be installed then.
Ever since a software update I cannot connect the phone to a windows 10 laptop.
I get a popup with a yellow exclemation mark saying the device cannot be recognised.
Device manager says Unknown USB device with an error code of 43 and the header Device Descriptor Request Failed.
I cant install any drivers manualy, iv tryed uninstalling pc companion and xperia companion to no avail.
Please help.
Z5
Windows 10
It's a windows 10 thing. There's a special way to install em. Just Google it, there's plenty of guides out there

That sound like a problem with windows 10 driver signing, try booting with advance boot options and select "disable driver signature enforcement"
Try to reinstall the driver and verify if this will enable it
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 (A1 Austria branded) Android 6.0.1
When I connect my phone to my Laptop, the connection permanently goes on/off once per second. The windows10 connection notification and also in smart switch are permanently blinking, like.. because it connects - fails - reconnects - reconnects-reconnects...
I tried with different cables. already did a factory reset, but the problem persists.
USB config is switched to MTP
Does anybody know how to fix this please?
Many thanks in advance!
Did you try another PC?
Ah, yes, sorry, I forgot to give this info - with my Desktop PC in Win10 it works, but not with the Laptop...

Tell me what does screen show when you plug it in wall socket, just low battery with lightning logo on top of it, and it stays there for about 4-5 seconds and it resets and does the same thing? Basically its looping death of battery. If you have that I can help you
Did you try the reset button which is near the sim slot? Keep the reset button pressed for like 1 min then try connecting it using Flashtool. Flash mode of course.
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my OnePlus 6 so I can root but my laptop can't recognise my OnePlus in cmd prompt. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and even a rooting tool that I got from XDA and nothing is working, can someone help me? (I'm fairly new to rooting)
Did you enable usb debugging?

See if you can find your device in Device Manager. If it has an yellow triangle on it you need to install adb drivers for it.
Change USB port - It helped in my case.

Mee too. Im unable to recognise the oneplus thorw the fastboot mode... if i try to type fastboot devices nothing appened...Can someone help us? Thanks
Did you both checked "allow USB debugging" under developer options and actually allowed it after connecting to USB port, it it didn't appear on your phone?
Wysłane z mojego ONEPLUS A6003 przy użyciu Tapatalka
As mentioned, make sure you've enabled Developer Options, then through there, enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging. Is the phone booted into fastboot mode (bootloader) when you're trying to find it via the command line? If you're booted into the system, fastboot won't work. Only adb will.
Another thing that might help is to use a Mac if you have access to one. There's no need for drivers, so that problem is eliminated. Connect via USB and the command line should work. (This is not a PC vs. Mac thing; it's just a practical matter.)
Solution
I had the same issue and the solution for me was to reinstall oneplus drivers the updated ones from the oneplus drive that appears when you connect the device.
As far as I remember, you can check devices with ADB devices not fastboot devices.

You can check with both adb and fastboot with the devices argument.
Code:
adb devices
fastboot devices
Same here
But my laptop can reconize my phone on fastboot mode
What OS? If it's Windows 10 N version, then you will need to download the Windows Media Feature Pack.
-Download latest OP6 drivers
-Enable Developer Options
-Enable USB debugging in developer options
When the phone is booted, you can use ADB devices commands, however, when in the bootloader, you'll probably have to use Fastboot devices.
On my phone, ADB devices never works at the bootloader, only outside of the bootloader.
I had an issue where every time I wanted to connect to fastboot, I had to turn off USB debugging, plug into my computer, wait for it to recognize, unplug, enable USB debugging, and reconnect to PC. Might be worth a shot to see if it's the same issue.

Doing this and enabling test mode on W10 LTSB before reinstalling the official OnePlus drivers worked on my OP5T (OOS 9.0.5). I had the same issue the OP described.
What can I do if the phone is locked and is in bootloop? I can't go and do the oem unlock and allow unlocking options in settings as phone is already in bootloop.
