Problem with pairing Xperia P wirelessly (JB)

After the JB update I was unable to connect wirelessly to my pc as I coudn't find my pc's name under USB connectivity. I started the whole process with PC Companion and after I connected my device with my pc via usb to reinstall the pc on my phone, the process ended with this error message on my phone: Configuration process needs to create a file in your internal storage root directoryv named with your computer. There's already a file or folder with the same name in your internal storage root directory, please rename it or delete it and then try again.

Did anybody face the same problem? Any solution?

Thank you! Slightly_smiling_Face

Wait lets sort this one out,what wireless connection are you using,is it Bluetooth? Wifi direct?  Give the exact connection my friend

Wi-Fi direct. I solve this problem by searching the files in the phone's memory and then I deleted the file with my PC name, then triend to reinstall it by using PC companion. The installation was successful but now when I try to connect with my PC it stucks on Connecting and never gets connected.

I had simular problem. I went to setting, (accounts) Goggle, location settings, Let Google apps access your location to on. Hopefully it will fix your problem.

Yeah, I keep Access to my location always ON, but anyway I don't think that's related with my problem.

Ok, I've found it...ROOT/MNT/SDCARD/"file named my computer". It's not folder but file.

I renamed it as my Xperia suggested me but couldn't pair so I have run CCleaner on my PC then Clean Master on my phone and then tried to pair... PC "Portable Device Network Configuration " stopped to work but I leave it like that and after cca 2min it has finished with succes.
It's working again!!
