Can somebody please provide a link for the drivers for the Poco x3 ? I am using Windows 7 and I cannot get shot of the yellow exclamation ! in the device manager. If there is an 'exe' version that would be great as I have had numerous attempts at trying to manually installing but to no avail. Thanks !
Have you tried to install Xiaomi PC Suite? It'll install the drivers for you.

I didn't know this, I will give it a try! Thanks
Well I tried the Xiaomi PC suite , the PC suite does not connect. Says to update my device. Still got the yellow exclamation mark in device manager, but at least I can drag and drop to my phone. I think it's odd they don't provide a driver tho?
Have you uninstalled it first? The driver that was installed by the system I mean. If not try and do it in the Device Manager then reboot your PC with the phone connected. If this doesn't work try a different USB port (all the standard stuff, you know). I'd really suggest that you upgrade that windows to win10. MS has dropped the support for 7. So no more security updates. Also you can still upgrade for free.

I am still getting security updates for my W7 machine that ain't a problem. I will uninstall all drivers and see what happens. Thanks for your help.

Excuse the Off Topic but, having both versions running on different computers, I think that's really bad advice.
If it works, don't fix it.
Windows 10 has given me little more than grief, while a 5 year old install of 7 is running as my daily driver without any major issues.
Security is no excuse here, both OS have attack vectors you must be mindful of -- but Ten's larger user base make it a bigger target... Not to mention MS regular updating breakage (just Google it).
Well I managed to get the phone recognised by the PC using Mi PC Suite. I followed the link here:
China Mi PC Suite with English Translation | MIUI Blog
Xiaomi has Mi PC Suite. It is the all-in-one tool to manage your device. It can install apps, update the mobile operating system, organize files, and so on.
miui.blog
Basically putting the Chinese version followed by some translation files. Recognised phone right away! just don't upgrade the app when it's asks.

I don't intend 'upgrading' my laptop to W10, way too much trouble. Every update something else breaks. There are no supported (W10) drivers for WiFi of graphics so it just runs smoother as it is! Thanks!! W7 all the way!

The OP is here because something actually doesn't work. Telling someone to stay on an 11 years old system based on personal preference is a bad advice. My security example is not an "excuse" as you call it but a good reason (one of many in fact) to upgrade. That would solve the problem OP has and help him avoid many others in the future.

for those who "own" the retail final version of windows 7, when u try to run CustomRUU.exe or RadioRaphael.exe youll get an error either the 0xc00007b or something random that wont run the program, already tried to run it in compatibility mode but theres no go, its a compatibility issue with the program, i even tried running it in admin mode and nothing, troubleshooter says its not compatible, best thing to do is if u have a backup laptop or pc with XP, vista or any of the beta RC1 builds for windows 7 is to run it from there, until then hopefully someone will get a fix for this, this is just a little heads up for anyone that has the retail windows 7...
if u dont have this issue on win7 retail plz let us know, and also for those who knows a fix for it, would be great...
here are one of the fixes thanks to gmanfuzing and jtantley
gmanfuzing said:
its got nothing to do with your OP , it has to do with the fact that when you unrar this version its all wonky with %20 all in the name , remove the %20's or just unrar it to an actually folder or just flash from your sd card (sd card flash is highly recomended)

just rename the folder to something short and sweet...
yes i had that problem before once and it was a 30 second fix... but at least this is good for other people for reference.

confirmed to try the fix and theres no go, im guessing it has to do with ur build version of Win7? because i rename the folder to a short name (EX: ROM) and i still get the error btw Win7 version build is 7600...
The only real fix
The only fix for this is to use a newer build or the full release of windows 7. I got the full retail version from Microsoft (I am certified so I get it early). It fixed my issues with this. So I would suggest wait a month buy the full version and you will be good to go.

ermm i do have the retail version of Win7, clearly 7600 IS the final version and is the OEM....
I have had no problems flashing from 7100.
I thought Windows 7 came out 10/22/2009...So how do you guys have it?
i've got the RTM of Win7 and have an issue where the app will run and get my device to enter bootloader, but then it will not progress beyond 0%. anyone have similar issues? i had no problems for months on vista, so i'm betting the folder path length isn't the issue.

MSDNAA access through IEEE (i am a college student, unlike the rest of the people who pretend)... $15, got 10 Windows 7 Pro RTM (7600) keys... used/gave away 3, still have 7 left
best deal ever
// though you're supposed to only use MSDNAA for educational purposes and no commerical... think that applies to my current situation, so nothing wrong here
flashing CustomRUU through Win7 RC had no problems, haven't had the time to flash the latest EnergyROM on my W7 Pro RTM, maybe in a few weeks time when i'm not that busy
lol i'm an Uni student and i get the license free from MSDN lol
of course, there're custom versions out in forums if u know what i'm talking about, and it's amazing, Windows 7 is actually heck a lot better than Vista & XP combined, and i use a lot of custom XP and it's just amazing, no lag whatsoever, and my laptop sucks so it's a good thing.
I just got my SNS yesterday and it's my first android phone (was previously using an LG cookie) First thing I did was try to root it, and I seemingly succeeded, or so I thought. It looks like it's rooted and the superuser apps there but I can't install apps using any of the guides I find or even update to 2.3.2 (keep getting and error 7 msg). When I try to install using APKInstaller it tells me it can't find the device, which I think is the problem.
I think the problem is that someway or another windows 7 64 bit stopped recognizing my phone as a Nexus S and now recognizes it as a portable device in device manager (There's also an Android Phone, with an Android Composite ADB interface) I used the SDK to install all the updates available including the google usb driver rev. 4. I tried updating the Portable device driver using the google usb driver but windows keeps it as a WPD Filesystem Volume Driver. Also I noticed when I checked to see if adb gave me a serial number for the phone using the cmd prompt commands in the rooting guides it comes up blank.
I used usbdeview to delete everything seemingly related to Android, but everytime I reconnect the phone it, installs the drivers for the portable device.
I need help to make windows recognize the phone as a nexus s again so I can update and install apps and games etc. If anybody out there can help i'll really appreciate it. Explain the steps to me as if you were talking to a child, leaving nothing out plz. Thanks for any assistance.
I live outside the US (no android market) and would hate to think I messed up and expense phone purchase in just one day
Not quite sure where to start. But my intuition tells me its the Windows 7 64-bit and drivers that's not playing along. You might want to google if other users are having trouble with W7 64-bit with Android drivers. Otherwise, find another computer and repeat the steps. If not, flash a custom ROM to see if that eliminates the problem. You haven't damaged your phone. Don't worry.
just install directly from android market website
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I assume you mean instal the update from the market (which I can't do because I don't have wifi)?
I managed to get the adb to list a device number after I installed java x32 & x64 bit. I still can't install apps or get the update to work, but I'll try unrooting and then rerooting my phone as see how that goes.
Oh, I haven't done the initial sign into gmail thing yet in case that makes any difference
Edit: god I feel stupid. I didn't realize that I had to upgrade from 2.3 to 2.3.1 and then to 2.3.2. I did that an everything upgrade without any problems. Now just got to figure out how to install apk's and I'm golden
Edit 2: Ok, I figured everything out and now i'm up to date with updates and I can install apps and games. Oh Happy Day Thx for all the help
i just buy wp7 yesterday, i was no idea how to sync it to the pc.
i heard that you need zune to sync with it like itunes. i'm installed it once, but it cannot update and say 'connection error, restart software'.
so i reinstalled again, but stuck at 100%.
a lot in the internet say that their os was XP of vista, and no windows 7 (and i'm using w7).
please, share with me how things are working here. thanks
i was able to sync and I have windows 7.
-make sure ZUNE is up to date
-you may get better results using the USB cable that came with the phone
-if you have more than one, try them all.
-you may get better results using the USB ports on the back of the PC

Have ya configured your phone already, a Live account and all that jazz ?
I have Windows 7, so that is not your problem... make sure your Zune is workling properly and if needed download a new version and reinstall it. Syncing Zune and WP7 is a pretty straight forward thing.
i'm already did that, it's just now i am trying to "reinstall" zune because it cannot update my windows phone 7 (version with no copy-cut-paste)
my zune installer is "downloading update at 100%" and stuck, no solution on the internet. some say to go back to xp (LOL)
for sync-ing my wp is no problem because it is straight forward

Like I said, I have Windows 7 x64 and the system runs great and no problems with Zune.
In you Windows try and create a new use with admin rights and try and install Zune in that user area, or use System Restore to roll back to a few days back... telling you to format and reinstall Windows 7 should be a last resort.
What "update" are you trying to install?

nothing, i'm trying to install, but the installer say updating, maybe i got old version package.
new problem here: i'm already download new package for installation, and i stuck at this point "preparing you computer, installing the zune sofware", so i think i have to contact zune for this problem
update: i just got the solution form help forum, apparently he say "just hit spacebar", and it work, feel like slap the software to wake up.
but now the software doesn't installed properly, no shortcut in the desktop

How long have you had that current installation of you Windows 7 ?
It might be a problem with your OS and not Zune... like I said, create a new user with admin right and install from there, Restore System to an older date.
If all fails, might be time for a fresh Windows 7 install.

Accessories, System Tools and you should have System Restore there. Try and restore to an older point in time, see if that helps.
When all else fails... format c:
system restore didn't have any effect at all. format is the only option left, i give up on this software.
i just don't want to waste anymore time, i'll use wp7 connector for mac instead.
thank you very much for everyone here for spending time to answer me. operator may closed this post in peace.
So, A few months ago I downloaded and installed the developers preview of windows 8. I liked it a lot and backed up my windows 7 hd, wiped and fully installed windows 8.
Well, I bought the HTC One S yesterday. Amazing phone.
My problem, I can't root my phone because while installing the htc drivers it comes up with "~ doesn't recognize this OS" or something like that. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom
Maybe you should revert back to windows 7 then if the drivers wont install, Its pretty much impossible to anything without drivers

I figured that was the easiest solution HOWEVER I really dont want to spend 3 hours of work (Backup windows 8, delete, repart, load and install windows 7, root phone, delete, repart, load and install windows 8) for something that takes less than half an hour to do.
If anyone has any nice work arounds i'd really, really appreciate it!
What about installing some kind of virtual machine and Win7 or even XP on it?
can't you find any kind of driver that will install on WIN8?

I would try installing the Windows XP mode (virtual machine) if Windows 8 lets you, as mentioned above.. or perhaps download TinyXP and install as dual boot. maybe even a live install to a bootable usb drive.. although I've never been able to get that method to work well.
Or! I'll sell you my HP TC1100 already set up for HTC & Samsung phone modding!
Hi everybody,
not sure whether I can post this within the clone phone threads since I do not know the processor nor the manufacturer.
Phone is a pseudo iPhone which runs some kind of Android which is disguised as iOS (really bad quality).
Unfortunately this Android is really instable and phone does not work reliably.
Now I am trying to find out whether there might be another Android version which I could flash instead. Already identified Needrom as possible source but need the real device manufacturer and processor before.
Any idea how I could proceed here? Just still trying to avoid to connect to PlayStore on this phone since the Chinese ones are known for their spyware.
Recoveryis accessible.

Which other information do I need to provide/identify the phone and how do I get it?
Any help highly appreciated.
Bye
First things I identified are that it seems to be a Lenovo using MT65xx - at least this was shown during driver installation when phone was connected to Win PC.
After connecting to Win10 Laptop YunOS ACB Interface has been installed. MTKTools tells about the already known fake and says its an MT6582.
So how can I provide a suitable stock ROM onto it?

Hey Renth,
I am afraid I got one of those too. It looks like an iphone with 250GB memory, but in eality it only has less than 50 MB.

I a wondering also if I can wipe out whatever it has installed.
Sorry for the late reply. I also raised that topic within China Devices Forum back then. There I documented all my activities (hopefully did not forget anything).
Do not know whether cross referencing is allowed, so just send me a PM then I can provide you the link. Alternativly you can ask google for "How to identify real device (Clone phone)?" and then follow the link with the same topic at Chine Devices forum.
