C905 Cybershot Screen On Time

[#1]

Hi,

I have the sony c905. Great Phone!

When I connect via USB to my pc it is useful as well unitl...

Phone disconnects from PC and comes back when I press keys!

Is there a setting that I can the screen to stay on? thus not disconnect?

I have downloaded and installed PC suite 6.0

thnks

For PC suite you need to connect in USB  PC/Phone mode.If this doesn't work, check the security of the USB connections, especially at the phone end.Otherwise, run the SE update service on your phone to update or re-install the software via PC.

Hi,

thanks for the answer.

So as I understand it

You go to the screen that says USB mode,

then start Sony PC Suite

then connect phone?

Yes, first you make sure that the USB mode in your phone is set to PC/Phone mode, then connect to the PC and then open PC suite and wait for a few seconds until it finds the phone.

Sorry,

It also asks if Id like to update the software...

I say yes,

its backs up...

Prepares for update,

dowloads software...

says 'preparing phone....

switches phone off.... then..... nothing?

You can try phone repair via PC suite--this option is under the Help tab of the PC suite page, and this process will attempt to sort out any software problems and re-install the software.Again, everything needs to be backed up beforehand.

Hi,

I am a little reluctant to do the suggestion as it says it should only be done as a last resort.....

Well you can try a master reset first and failing that, the phone repair.
