If the software repair does not help then I can only advise that you return the phone so that it may be assessed by an authorised agent sorry.

Do you use the correct method to connect your device? turn off the phone via back panel wait 5-10 seconds, open sony update service and select SP it will ask you to connect your phone before connecting your phone keep your USB plugged into PC then press down volume button on SP and while it's pressed connect the usb into device it will recognize it.
