off course it will not work.
In step 1 folder there is no 024 firmware but 016, which have fota debug entry allowed (all latest have it disabled).
that explains why the screen not shows up on your phone.
in step 1 of root, you are actually doing a downgrade of your firmware from any to the 016. After in step two where root hapens you are upgrading to the 024 fw (thanks to file fota.pkg).
there are many solutions in thread here.
allowing fota.pkg in latest firmwares.
make 024 root and update to 026 by jeprelea.
use exploit to root 026 fw
or the easiest method via root apk where you will just simply push the root button

Oh thx ^^
Can u post the link or the file here pls, i can't find it...

Debranding methods do not work anymore?

Has anyone successfully debranded using the usual tutorials anymore?
Nope, the quick swap method on seus didn't work anymore.
You can try looking at this thread though. It's a bit less simple, but it does the trick.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683793
I used the method @Gentimp referred to in the link and it worked first time, hook up your phone and press any key on the command it will install a 026 generic version on your phone, simple
vengeance
the old method worked fine for me. I debranded last week using it, although took 7 tries.
yeah last week it still worked, but now it wont. there was a little update on the SEUS, i think this prevented us from debranding
you can use this method to debrand too :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907
Check the X10i mini section, there is another method to debrand your X10.
I tried it today and success.
I cannot post the link here because the owner doesn't want to share it anywhere

If its posted on an internet forum its public knowledge. Link it up. Link to the thread, not the creators tools or whatever directly.
Use this metode:
1. Download the firmware you want
2. Use SEUS or PC COMP to update your phone
3. Go to Program filles /sony ericsson and replace those 2files with the one that u download at step 1... dont forget to rename the filles
4. Now run again SEUS or PC C... it will say taht u are up to date so u need to give repair
Job done

Use this method by Grospolina. I did it yesterday and took me like 5 minutes. Just apply step 1 if you just want to debrand and the rest for root and market access. I think its the easiest.
These are the steps I did:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7490733#post7490733
1)Download for your model X10a or X10i
2)Run RootX10a_v2.cmd
3)Select option 1 (A message appears, don't click just yet)
4)Connect your phone in flash mode (turn off, wait 30secs, press back while connecting the usb cable)
5)When the green led light appears on your phone quickly hit a key and the process starts
6)Let it finish and Bingo!! You got Generic LAM R2BA026
If you want to root and market access select the other options. (I used the Stand alone root on another post and installed market access)

Maybe this thread will be your answer :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
=[ I tried pressing the root button and it says to connect your device and enable USB debugging.Which I've done.
It worked for me OK, o2 .24 firmware update, but I didn't do a factory reset when I updated via seus, maybe that is a factor?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I had it rooted before, it was slow so I unroot it. Later I saw an update and after the update, I couldnt root it anymore. So I reset it to factory settings and now im stuck. =[
@ukakit:
thats what happened to me too!! i rooted my x10i using z4root... and i updated it via pc companion yesterday.... and now i cant root my phone...
even after reinstalling z4root or redownloading z4root... worst of all... i realised the update did nothing at all!! except for unrooting my phone
have you found a solution?
If you are on build 2.0.A.504 then use this.
If you are on build 2.0.2.A.0.24 then use this.
I'm unable to root my X10, I do not know why! I tried with z4root, universal androot and SuperOneKlick,I even search on youtube and nothing succeeded. I don't know what to do anymore . Perhaps the thing that I have the latest software of Android OS (firmware v. - 2.1, the baseband v. - 2.0.49, build number - 2.0.2.A.0.24). I have read almost all posts on the XDA about root and still impossible. PLEASE HELP !!

Had the same issue yesterday.. solved it with a little logic..
Just follow the steps..
1. You will need x10 flashtool installed on your computer.
2.open it.
3. Turn on Usb debugging mode in your x10 under applications->Development.
4. Turn your phone off and remove battery for 20 sec.
5. Put the battery in and hold back key without turning on your phone.
6. Plug the usb cable without leaving the back key. A green led light must appear.
7. Now press the root button in x10 flashtool. It will say connect your phone and enable usb debugging.
8. Disconnect your usb cable and Turn on your phone
9. Reconnect it ro computer BUT DO NOT MOUNT THE SD CARD.
10. then just press the root button again in flashtool..
11. The phone will now be rooted.
NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE ADB INTERFACE DRIVERS INSATLLED ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR YOUR PHONE

Both the .24 and .435 root with SOC 1.5.5
Hi guys good day!!! I do have a x10i with FIRMWARE 1.6, BASEBAND 1.01.14, BUILDER NO. R1FAO14 which was working perfectly fine. Until I tried to update it using SEUS which was successful (as per the software) then I restarted my phone and saw it was updated to FIRMWARE 2.1 UPDATE1, BASEBAND 2.1.54, BUILDER NO. 2.1.a.o.435. The problem was after 5-10 mins buttons no longer work and only the touch screen works. Please if anybody has a solution please let me know.
I’m thinking of two things, FIRST is reverting it back to 1.6 if possible (I don’t know how...) SECOND is to continue using the current firmware (2.1 update1) but resolving the button issue.
Thanks...

cannot root
Hi,
thanks for all your tries - it didn´t work for me so far:
I have an SE X10, Firmware 2.1-update1, Baseband 2.1.54, Kernel 2.6.29 and Build 2.1.a.0.435
I tried SOC in different Versions - no success - used Flashtool and Z4Root - no success.
My last try of Flashtool is attached - any ideas are welcome. I know - this WILL be my LAST time using SEUS to perform an update - before this, rooting worked fine.
Now it does not work anymore...
I reformatted my computer and after I couldn't get my phone to connect using debugging mode, I had to use a different computer to root it. Do you have access to a different computer? It solved my problem...Hope this helps! I have rooted every version from Sony no problem except the latest one, flashtool didn't work even with the patch, so I used superoneclick.

cannot root

Did you also remember to allow 3rd party apps?

depending on your firmware theres a few way to root it
1.6, x10root.apk and universalandroot.apk
Just install em and root
2.1, at first there was z4root but SE patched it out, but i used superoneclick and it looped once and rooted straight away
or you could just flash your phone using Zdzihu method which installs a pre rooted 024 firmware
or use this HowTo

[Q] doing the X10root to root an Xperia x10 and having a problem.

H,
I used the X10root app to try and root my X10.
the problem comes when it says": wifi on followed by wifi off.
I've done the steps...but it seems to be frozen right at this point...there is no further message, no indication that anything is happening.
Can someone help?
the easiest way, it takes me 1 min, no apps or anything required, download flashtool from xda to your computer, connect your usb and click root. click root on top left with flash tool, it will do things, and you phone will restart, when it restarts, you will have root access. thanks me if i helped!
flashtool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
I found superoneclick to be the easiest.... z4root is easy as hell too
First time i was using Z4. Worked like a charm!
Last time i was on .435 firmware. Z4root, X10Root, Flashtool... all didn't work!
I found out that the .435 can only be rooted by suuperoneclick v1.55 or v1.63.
Before you connect (with USB debug mode on), be sure to have the SE drivers installed on your PC. Else superoneclick won't be able to find your xPeria.
Good luck!
on my .435 i used flashtool to root as well =)

Z4root doesn't work on my x10 Mini Pro.
I've just reflashed it using SEUS, which gave me 2.1.1.A.0.6. Downloaded and installed z4root, ran it, the app did its thing, gave no error messages and...my phone still isn't rooted.
I've just done a quick bit of Googling and it looks like z4root isn't compatible with this build. As far as I can tell, there isn't anyway to root your phone, if this is the build you're on, without using a PC. Maybe it's worth trying to borrow a friend's for a few minutes? Or sneaking down to an internet cafe and hoping that they haven't disabled the USB ports..
