Sony Xperia Z5 (E6653) not found by adb
<p>1) I enabled developer-mode and usb debugging on my device.</p>

<p>2) I downloaded the drivers from sony:</p>

<p>developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z5-driver/</p>

<p>3) after hours of research, i followed this tutorial to install these drivers:</p>

<p>4) still not working with adb so after another couple of hours of research I installed the sony companion:</p>

<p>5) I restarted my phone by holding volume-up and on/off button. after that the led turns blue and the display remains black. After several times pressing and holding the on/off button the phone starts properly. Now my Win7 searches for a "S1 fastBoot driver" and couldn't find it. Researches about fastboot let me know that I would need this to flash my phone. I don't like to flash my phone so I stopped searching for this missing driver. </p>

<p>6) I restarted my pc and now if I look at the windows device manager there is the device: Sony sa0113 with a childnode named Sony sa0113 ADB Interface Driver with an yellow callsign. Checking out the properties of this gives the information that the device couldn't be started (code 10).</p>

<p>after all that adb devices still doesn't list my device.</p>

<p>what i'm missing?</p>

<p>adb version:</p>

<p>Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.36</p>

<p>Revision 19394af606f6-android</p>
