I want to test my android app on my xperia x10 device but its not showing up in the device list. I have downloaded the correct drivers but when I try to install them trough the device manager it says "Windows was unable to install your SEMC HSUSB Device".

I have USB debugging activated.

What should I try next?

USB Debugging should be ON and then,

Try to reset the adb (DDMS Perspective --> Devices Tab --> Small Triangle on right side(Last option) --> Reset adb)

The drivers are here:

http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/downloads/download/dw-x10drivers?cc=gb&lc=en

Use adb devices from command line to know if you've got the phone connected correctly.

Still have a problem then I have read a solution which says -

  • From the device-manager, got the hardware-id of the device that failed to install (under details, you can get the hardware-id, in my case these Hardware-Id's were listed: USB\VID_0FCE&PID_612E&REV_0224&MI_01 USB\VID_0FCE&PID_612E&MI_01 I then opened the inf-file (sa0101usb.inf), and under the sections: [SEMC.NTx86] and [SEMC.NTamd64] I added a new entry with the new key...

i.e. -

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0FCE&PID_612E&MI_01

Then installing the drivers worked like a charm...

  • debug is on, when I reser adb it says `Adb connection Error:An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host`. use `adb devices` from command line how? I get `'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command ... `, i changed sa0101usb.inf and still same message like in the question. I have read the POSTS you linked before and they did not help me eather. – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 08:25
  • Open `Task Manager` and kill all the process that are `adb.exe` and then restart the eclipse and start adb again. – sjain Jun 25 '14 at 08:58
  • ok, adb started when i restarted eclipse but this changed nothing :( eclipse even tell me `adb is running normally.` in the console – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 09:03
  • Use "Android Device Chooser" from eclipse to select your device from their. Also make sure that you installed the correct drivers from the link that is mentioned in the answer and then restarted your PC after driver install. – sjain Jun 25 '14 at 09:09
  • "Android Device Chooser" is empty, probably because of the error I get when trying to install the driver you linked. – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 09:12
  • Your very first problem is system is unable to install the driver for your device. No driver means no USB debugging. Use the link as a help to install the driver first - http://androidforums.com/sony-ericsson-xperia-x10/205801-how-install-usb-driver-sony-ericsson-x10.html – sjain Jun 25 '14 at 09:22
  • I ended up on that page earlier and what I am doing is finding the device with an error in the device manager and updating its drivers by manually picking from where to get them. Thne I pick the extracted folder of what I downloaded from your link. The debug drivers for sony ericsson x10 (http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/sony-ericsson-x10-drivers/). I guess I'm doing this right? – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 09:29
  • yes manually install the drivers and then you will get the chooser for your device in eclipse only after successful install. – sjain Jun 25 '14 at 09:37

    God bless you!! I can confirm this procedure works with Windows 7 64 bit... Download the original driver from Sony page http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/sony-ericsson-x10-drivers/ – Guybrush Oct 30 '16 at 22:00

  1. first of all try to uninstall all your Sony device drivers because the drivers which you downloaded is only for data transfer(backup and transfer files) but not for debugging.
  2. Second if you really want to test you app on your Sony Device then you need to download the usb debug drivers of Sony x10
  3. Click this link.
  4. After downloading the debug drivers from the above link check for the debug mode is checked and then connect your device .
  5. After connecting the device you need to do slight changes in the Android Virtual Device Manager(AVD).
  6. By default your application will execute on a user defined emulator for this you need to set the AVD to prompt you every time you execute the application.
  7. In this way you could select your device on the dialog box that appears and the application is then executed on your device instead of the emulator

  • 1. no driver is installed yet, 2. that link is what driver I already downloaded but cant install, 4. Unable to install driver as mentioned in question. – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 08:07
  • @jt123 be patient and tell me your system configuration – user285oo6 Jun 25 '14 at 09:16
  • I am patient, I have been trying things for hours. I have a windows 8.1 pro 64-bit, anything else you wish to know? – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 09:22
  • try this direct [link](http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/sony-ericsson-x10-drivers/) for the debugging driver for your phone. Download this driver its of 6MB install and tell me the progress if not follow this [link](http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193066) – user285oo6 Jun 25 '14 at 09:45
  • The first link gives me the error message I mention in the question and the second link tells me `found driver but encountered a problem ... the hash for the file is not present in the specified catalog file, the file is likely corrupt or victim of tampering` – Gravity123 Jun 25 '14 at 09:53
  • Okay it seems the driver is getting compatibility issues with your Operating System as The above first link goes easy on Windows 7 .Try to get in touch with your Sony Support team using live chat if available in your country else if you want to avoid that then please try posting this question on this [link](http://android.stackexchange.com/) they will give u the best possible answer – user285oo6 Jun 25 '14 at 10:19
  • @jt123 As you can see [this](http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html) there's no driver for win 8 shown – user285oo6 Jun 26 '14 at 11:42

I had the same problem for win8.1 64 and i solved it by getting hardware ids of the device it was USB\VID_0FCE&PID_612E&MI_01 and from Update Driver Software/Browse my computer for driver software/ Let me pick from a list ... And selected Samsung Android ADB Interface and its worked for me Think that will be usefull :)
