Hi Guys
Been browsing around here a few days now and wanna say FAB site.
Anyways, Got x10 mini pro on 2.1 and have been playing about with launcher pro ect. but really like the look of some of the themes on here that people have modified. Think I have managed to root with Superoneclick. Heres my questions:
1. How do you know if root worked?
2. Is there a dummies guide to installing/creating themes
3. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started with playing around with rooted phone?
Thank you all in advance for any answers

lilflix7, first of all to understand what is rooting you need to understand the basics of a Linux system, as Android is nothing but a system using the Linux kernel. "root" is like a default administrator account in Linux , which gives you hardware level access. For example giving hardware level access to applications which manage CPU Scaling for battery efficiency. By default the vendors lock out the "root" access just to protect their warranty incase you do something harmful (i.e. deleting important system files") or a malware granting itself administrative privilege to mess with your phone. But some of us have found ways to enable it incase we want better control of our phones for more customization (i.e freeing up some space by deleting unnecessary system applications) and hacking. The methods vary depending upon the make and the models and most importantly the Android Version .. As it sometimes varies between gingerbread and ICS .. With ST15i with ICS please don't consider rooting the phone directly using the scripts, you might end up with a brick.. Downgrade to a Gingerbread Kernel after which you may have a soft brick due to the kernel mismatch, but then you can run the DooMLoRD rooting tool with busybox....After this process switch back to the stock kernel and you are rooted xD .. Please note Firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 and 4.0.2.A.0.69 are difficult to root on a locked boootloader. So to root gingerbread you need to flash either 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58 and then Root.. This might sound hebrew to you as you are new to this phone, so i suggest you to read through the forums before you decide your call. As "rooting" your phone will void your warranty AND MOST IMPORTANTLY BRICK YOUR PHONE if you do something wrong.. Here is a detailed guide on how to root ST15i (talk.sonymobile.com/thread/41119?start=0&tstart=0).. I have tried it on my week old ST15i and its rooted flawlessly now xD.. All the very best..
Hi there,
Does anyone think it would be possible to read the NOR flash memory of a PS3 via USB with a rooted android?? since Sony patched the IDPStealer exploit I can't use that, if anyone knows anything more about related ^ would be much appreciated.. Yes I really don't want to buy an E3 flasher or teensy ahah.
