I can not put the Device in USB MODE.
I'm having the exact same problem after using FLASHER 2.1. Tablets gets stuck on the S.O.N.Y logo and I can enter the recovery screen, however no access through the USB to my files, already try the factory reset and still nothing. I would even consider installing the official firmware even if a lose root. I don't have the_hack_recovery.zip or any key. What can I do? I've been looking for solutions for over two days now.
I will appreciate any suggestions. :crying:

Now a have testes this

As long as your 'region.zip' file is not damaged, then for 99% your tab can be fixed.
Firstable try to flash this: 3.2.1r2 firmware
if not works, then try this:
signed-nbx03_016-ota-120803071.zip,
in fot works, then try this:
signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002.zip

In most cases it works. If it will fail then:
1. Boot into RECOVERY;
2. Try to flash the update again - it will fail - thats ok;
3. Wait for 2-3min to get adb available;
4. Use 'adb pull /tmp';
5. Post your recovery.log and region.prop files.

Hello Koto99

Thanks for your reply, I tried running the signed-nbx03_016-ota-120803071.zip and it didn't work, I'm looking everywhere for the signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002.zip which should work for me, since my tablet was bought in the U.S. but it isn't available anywhere. I can't access the tablet through the ADB Shell, I press option 6 on the main menu and it does nothing. When I'm in the recovery mode I can see windows asking for drivers for a device named Sony, but none of the adb drivers work. If I go to the Sony logo I have it recognizes the MTP USB device and it looks ok for about 40 sec. and then it puts the yellow exclamation mark. I really need to get this tablet fix, I'm willing to donate $40.00 to the person that helps me restore it.
