As we know ,
Now we can get ADB to x10-mini ,with ADB we can install apk via ADB /Computer.
But, we need tools for Recovery . Or How to get x-10 mini on Recovery Mode ?
Want to learn!
I became a member here (and in some other forums) because I am very interested in learning about my phone. The OS, rooting, ROMS, etc. But since I'm totally unexperienced, and I don't understand the terms and all the letters you use in tutorials, I'm not learning as quikly as I hoped.
I have searched the internet and tried my best. How can I get the information I need to understand tutorials etc? I would like tutorials for dummies And a dictionary.
ROM = ???
Help!

What would that entail? I am willing to help if I can. I have a x10 mini pro and some spare time during the days here.
I'd be happy to help in any way.
We still need recovery mode for x10 !

i appologize for my lack of english
Im a user of xperia 10 mini on 2.1 android. I need to install some of my apps on the sdCard but people said it only can be done on 2.2 (froyo) or by using app2sd.
The first option was too difficult and high risk (in fact i cant do it, the second was my issue here.
I cant root my x10 mini (2.1), i've been using these: z4root, terminal emulation push some .apk from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739874 threat, universalRoot, and the last i use SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse. I put my interest in this apps, coz most people said they've succeed use this app (on 2.1 (eclair)) but i found it keep loop and loop. I've toggle the usb debuging but its doesnt work.
Please help me, the poor eclair, help me o' masters of android

The thing is that the very last version of the x10 mini firmware cannot be rooted yet, so if you want to root your phone, you have to flash the previous version of eclair with bin4ry's flash tool and then root it using z4root. sorry for my english too

I have the newest firmware: "2.1-update1" - "2.0.A.0.504" updated via SEUS 2 days ago and have managed to root it (Eventually) using "SuperOneClickv1.5.5".
It took a while and was a bit trial-and-error to find the exact time to disconnect/disable USB debugging but it does work! - Keep trying!!!
I am currently looking into installing App2SD which, apparently, can be easiest done via XRecovery (Once your phone is rooted).
This seems one of the most comprehensive sources that I have found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833722
Hope this helps and please can someone correct me if I am wrong because I have only been using Android for a week (Plenty of experience with other devices though!)

it is soo sad that i cant even flash my phone using the tools you mentions. The program that you give me, the roms, they keep searching for my x10 mini, when i realize my not in the flash mode, so i reboot my phone while keep pressing the back button, the little green light coming out, i switch to my PC only to see the message stay the same..
see endless dots and "Searching for Xperia...." message
people say my phone is invisible to the flasher, so how to make her visible?
with the correct usb driver you said, but sire, i currently using the SEUS thing, is there any more correct driver than this SEUS thing?
so,.. couldnt blame bin4ry for his nordic invention, just they people from the Sony Erricson for their hard-to-crack-cage...

Are you sure that your phone is actually in "USB Debugging mode"?
Click Settings --> Applications --> Development and then Put a tick in the "USB Debugging" box.
Once connected to windows, this should add extra drivers for "Sony Ericsson sa0101 ADB Interface Driver"
SuperOneClick is extremely tempermental when connecting but I have now used it on 3 phones.
Exactly what version ROM are you using?
I used standard drivers provided with the newest PC suite downloaded from SE.
I've already switching usb debugging mode all night long, maybe i just dont get the correct timing right?
i dont really know what rom im using, but the version on firmware are 2.1-update1 and the kernel are 2.6.29 build 2.0.2.A.0.24
can you give me the right time to switch mode? i mean what is the right text on the console for the switching?
thnx bro

Go here and get Super One click, you can also folow that tutorial but like you I was new to this and ran into a few problems following that tutorial (Very simple problems to get by but i didn't realise lol)
Any way here we go:
Things you need:
Super one click - Get it from here as this one worked for me
link2sd (off the andriod market, this alows your apps to install to sd card)
titanium backup free or pro (you can get busybox from this and also uninstall everthing you don't want on the phone but be carefull)
But first
Lets stats at the begining,
connect your phone/mount just normal connect then go here and follow the steps, after that restart your phone (Don't worry if your phone displays an error before you restart just reboot)
Now go into you settings, applications, Development then tick USB Debugging (You can also go to settings Sound and Display, Screen time Out and set it to 30 mins)
after doing so run super one click on you computer, connect your phone but select charge phone this time, then click root (If the usb conection screen reapears on your phone just re-click charge phone) and when it is done it will ask you if you want to do a test before you click yes disconect your phone reboot it, connect again in charge mode then click yes and ok to the next message then on your phone you should get a message from the super use app click allow.
righty oh asuming everything has gone well download titanium backup (free or pro, i use free lol) once installed go on it and click problem alow it with the super user, and click 'Problems?' then 'Get busybox'.
after that you'll be able to uninstall stock apps, finaly if you want your apps to gon onto your sd instead of phone memory get link2sd of the andriod market if not don't lol, once you have it go on it allow with super user and click the FAT somthing option sorry can't remember but you can't miss it (bottome one) click ok then you can sellect apps to move to your sd
and we are DONE hope this helped as I never had anyone explain in depth to me lol anyway any problems i'd be more than happy to help out
Enjoy and hope everything goes well for you

1. nope, rooting your phone will not delete any data..
2. not necessary, well if you insist, you always can backup first, for later use
3. maybe you can check this app here : this app cal MyBackup, if you like this app, you can purchase the pro version

You have to go back to stock firmware and then relock the bootloader (press the restore button in S1Tool), don't use the x10blrelock from flashtool.
I hope your signal will be back by then, and i guess you'll be stuck with ROMS that run on stock kernel.
okay so ive been scouring through these forums in search of step by step tutorials to get the latest OS for my new xperia x10 mini pro u20i that doesn't have any bugs. I've run into many terms that I'm not familiar with such as root, roms, devs, kernals, etc (please understand as i am upgrading from a 1st generation nokia flip phone )

If you want to stay with stock 2.1 the video is right. If you want to put some custom rom, then you must follow the flippin manual and yes it is correct. Dont worry its not that hard as it seems to be, just be sure to make backups everytime you can before and after the installation. For your data, Titanium backup will do the job, for custom rom xRecovery.

Hello!
I was wondering how to know if a Xperia X10 was rooted. And how would I boot to recovery menu if it is?
My girlfriends X10 was locked to Orange and she wanted it unlocked. After phoning Orange to do it they somehow managed to kill her phone! I took it to a phone repair/unlock place and they had it for a couple of days but said they couldn't get it working again. However when I tried it the phone worked fine and was successfully unlocked!
The phone was on gingerbread but is now eclair. Also the boot up sequence has different graphics I've not seen before. I'm assuming the guy in the shop has rooted the phone to install this different version of the OS on, but how can I be sure?!
Thanks for reading!
Cheers

Hi guy,
In your menu search for an app named "superuser",if you find it means your gf's device was rooted if not that means that device wasn't rooted.
For xrecovery menu,
Restart the device and when you see Sony Ericsson logo push the back bottom on your phone again and again,if it has xrecovery it goes to the menu..
Good luck.

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately no superuser app and I can't get to recovery so doesn't seem to be rooted.
There's a few apps on there like "AT&T Maps" so it looks like the guy put an AT&T version of android on. How could he do that if it wasn't rooted?
I'll try to find a way to root it and stick cyanogen mod on...
att maps is probably a free app.....use the flashtool to root your phone...its literally the simplest thing.....download the 2.9.1. flashtool in the development thread and turn usb debugging on in your phone...and just click the root button through the flash tool...and it will root it for you...as for xrecovery its the same things...root and clock the recovery button..and its on .....pm me if you get confused
Hit thanks if I helped!

Thanks for your help everyone. I'll give the flashtool a go this evening if my girlfriend lets me!
She quite liked the standard SE gingerbread operating system. What would be the best custom ROM to install to give the most SE like experience whilst retaining useful root & superuser tools?
I'll try to convince her to try Cyanogen mod at some point but I think she'd like to stick with the familiar for now!
Are there any stable (or semi stable) ICS ROMs available yet?!
You can just root it and leave it at that.That way it's just the same but you can use extra stuff etc.

Hello there!
I was asking myself,if there is no way to use a flashtool for the tablet s?
for example.i have a x10i and there is a tool which lets you flash kernels,roms etc.
Now i tryed to connect my tablet via flashtool.but the tab isnt listet (but a lot of other sony and sony ericsson) and so,the tool doesnt work with it.
I dont now how to make it connect able to a flashtool.do we need a script or something to make it work with it?
Another thing i,that i can enter the stock recover ( Android system recovery 3e).
I got my sgs2 rooted fia this stock recovery with a cwm.zip that got installed eith this stock recovery.and then i flashed a root.zip and so i got root.is there no way to do so on the tablet s?
I am slowly going really crazy without root!!!
