Can't repair Sony Ericsson Aspen M1i with Sony PC Companion - General Questions and Answers

I have a Sony Ericsson Aspen M1i windows 6 based phone. It is locked and I forgot the password.
So I tried to repair it with Sony PC Companion
I followed the step Support Zone > Phone/Tablet Software Update > Repair my phone/tablet > Start > Prepare (by downloading and agreeing all things and choosing my phone model)
But after ending up at the last step where it asks to turn off the phone and connect it with pc by holding down call button, it doesn't go any further :crying:
I tried to connect it for more than a thousand times, took off the battery and reinstated it, but it didn't work
Windows sounds when I connect the phone, then nothing
Is it something to do with the drivers or ggsmec drivers?
I tried to install drivers I found over google
Couldn't found any boot or fastboot drivers for this phone
.
PLEASE HELP ME!!! :crying:

[Q]

Question - Help please
My Sony Xperia Z (C6603) just died for the first time (had it for 1.5 years)
I couldn't update the phone over the wi-fi so i connected to PC companion.
It updated the app on windows 7 (64BIT)
Started update procedure
Battery of phone was 85%.
I entered the last phase, it said enter the USB while pressing volume down.
Then windows gave message USB device not recognised, the phone stopped working and the update procedure of pc companion stopped
I am in a very stressful situation, moving today, lost my phone -- need it!
Sony support useless said to repair via the tool, the tool doesn't recognise my phone!
HELP please...+( some tech guru out there?
UPDATE:
AFTER Calling Sony and then Microsoft I figured it out.
Problem was my 5 year old laptop - drivers.
I searched around and found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2635830
I installed ALL of them, and then charged phone a bit ~15 minutes, and restarted PC meanwhile.
Then I open PC companion, and plugged phone in when it said ''Update failed- please connect to PC'' when ''repairing'' in PC companion
Sorry for bad english.
GL for all..
Dude the problem will be solved only after flashing rom again.. But as you said that your device is not recognized.. Then there will be some problem with your pc drivers....
You can try on other pc
And some time these kind of errors occur randomly...
. I don't understand that 1 minute ago device was recognizing and now it's not.....
Sorry bro...... I didn't solved your problem but you should try on other pc....

[Completed] Xperia wont connect to pc

Hi everyone
I have a specific problem, my Z1 compact which is running Lollipop 5.0.2 wont be recognized by my PC
When I plug in the usb Cable (which is original) it shows me the error message USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED / error 403
But the problem is this, its not in the drivers on the computer because i could connect my phone earlier at my workplace, at home
and my GFs laptop, the drivers are installed via PC Companion, and i also installed them manually and via flashtool to make sure they are installed !
I got this problem maybe after installing some apps on my phone , maybe that have root acces? / Kingroot - SuperSU
I think that the problem is IN THE PHONE ITSELF / It kinda lost its identity to PCs or in some app ?
I tried fixing it throught the device manager but couldnt get it to work.... Im running windows 10 on my machine, 7 on Workplace and XP on GFs Laptop...
Any suggestion would be helpfull, thanks in advance

I'm not sure if this'll work It's probably a hardware fault otherwise,
But you're gonna' need a Windows PC
1).Download Sony PC Companion (Click Here)
2). Plug your device in with the Stock Micro USB Cable into the PC
3). Once it recognizes your device unplug your device and power it off
4). Once your device is off plug your MicroUSB Cable and instantly hold the 'Volume Down' Button (Yes it should be plugged into your PC)
5). If this was done succesfully Sony PC Companion will pick up a device and begin installing the stock firmware or something
Hello Dear
I try this , but not work and problem is still yet
you have to repair using Sony PC companion or better yet visit service center if in warranty. hope u have not unlocked bootloader.

Help on locked device (Sony Z4/Z3+)

So my friend gave me this phone since he forgot the pin and the google account. The data in this phone is not important but the problem here is that:
1. Cant get to ADB because my PC is not authorized (he did enabled USB debugging though)
2. No way of unlocking the device (running on nougat), maybe brute force?
3. Apparently Emma and PC Companion doesnt work. Emma said this phone is locked. PC Companion "repair" option fails
4. Cannot boot to recovery because Sony
Note that i dont neeed the data inside. Just want to get this phone usable again, change the battery and LCD (touchscreen only works at the side) and use it.
Side note: Emma says this phone is E6553 (int'l ver) while the error code in PC Companion says SO-03G (Docomo ver) maybe because of this PC companion just gave up? Oh and also sometimes while booting it will just bootloop at the sony startup animation screen and then red light blinking 3 times.
help me pls
