Worked first attempt within a minute D2. I just don't know what happens when you unroot.

I tried it on my Xperia x10 mini, and it worked great on the first try! Can recommend it

Can this be used to unroot?

It's on market. Simply press Root, wait a while (be patient), the phone rebooted itself and that's all. It worked fine on a X10 mini 2.1.
Thank you!!!

yea! works on the mini pro too!
this is the easiest method to root for 2.1!
amazing work!

Can indeed confirm it works, brilliant! X10 mini 2.1 now rooted
Sent from my E10i using XDA App

anyone checked if it can unroot also?

unroot is no problem with x10 mini pro.

Never understood why you would want to unroot

...excellent. Works like a charm!

no problem on unroot with Z4root.

Thank you Thank you Thank you! whoever posted z4root on here! you are a life saver!
I buggered up my Root access installing JIT and couldn't remove superuser.apk or re-root my phone.. I was stuck.. but z4root fixed everything!
in the wise words of Gir.. "Waffles!" or "hi floor! make me a sandwich" I am pretty stoked.

[Q]Restore to the first rom

I have the cm7 on my x10 mini and i want to restore to my first rom or delete this one somehow?
Thanks.
if you search the forum, others have suggested using pc companion to revert back to the original se rom.
next time, try using the search button
i did but how to use the repair thing in the PC Companion,i dont see any button like this :O

When you load pc companion or SEUS you will see a button to check for updates, it will then tell you the software is up to date but would you like to reinstall it anyway. If you click 'yes' it will then begin downloading the latest 'official' SE 2.1 ROM and install it (wiping your phone in the process).

Yes obsidian eclipse is right, that will get you back to stock if u use seus

@obsidian_eclipse
Well last time I tried that, it hadnt asked me to reinstall it... Im interested, how long ago was this method out?
@adidtnt;
Anyway, if you get in trouble with it, you can always manually flash an old official rom to it and then update it through SEUS.
thanks the SEUS worked but did it delete the recovery or not ?

I rooted my x10 mini android 2.1 to 2.3 CyanogenMod 7.0 with this version my SD card didnt work. Then tried CyanogenMod 7.9, after restart theres only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen, then I disconnectied battery and phone went to clockworkmode. From there I cant do anything. I have tried to restore( no files ) and then reinstall android but installation was aborted. when I reboot my phone then logo stays.
NEXT DAY: something happened, riht now only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen. clockworkmode does not work anymore!
I hope somebody can help me out. Its my first Android and im new at this.
Update ur phone using pc companion. Or Sony Ericsson update service ....

dont do it, use mini-04, which is stock rom + root and without all the se garbage.
Everything works perfectly and its fast and smooth.
Disable auto-brightness and you got a perfect little droid.
@ schmolch
thx i works just fine
normally i just use pc companian , then superoneclick to root, and titaninium back up to remove the se crap
but this is a lot faster
Very odd thing. I installed EWJet Rom few weeks ago. Wanted to try wolfbreaks so I used SEUS. I now have official gb dont know how because I was told by operator it was not being released to us. Any one explain this I dont get how it but gb on it

dude wrong forum
x10 is waaaay different than x10 mini/pro
you better go to x10 forums before you do somethimg that will brick your phone
(in order to understand the differencies in mini we cannot even touch the kernel not upgrade/downgrade.... )

ROOT Impossible Android 2.3

Hello
I just bought an X10 Mini Pro
With the build 4.0.A.2.335
Android 2.3.3
I tried all the software for the root is all freeze
Do you have a solution
wrong forum, i believe you need the Xperia Mini Pro forum section, not the X10.

nop....
i think you bought an Xperia Mini Pro not a x10 mini pro
so you re in the wrong thread
you should better fint the proper thread for your device because if you use any software from here might brick your device
(i made that assumption from the build you posted. the latest build of x10 mini pro is 2.1.C.0.0 and for this reason it is impossible for you to have a x10 mini pro with the build you posted)
Of course it's the WRONG topic! xP
Do we have GingerBread 2.3.3 officialy on our mini pros and nobody noticed?! Hahahahahahaha! xD Niiiiiiiiice...
So, let me clear it out. Xperia X10 mini pro (U20i) is not your phone. Yours is Xperia mini pro (SK17i). Be careful, don't get confused... ;-)

EDIT: Rooted Xperia Mini Pro (Sk17) FW 4.0.A.2.338 now trying to update and root 4.0.2.A.0.58
ADB drivers for sony ericsson: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/search-downloads/driver?cc=gb&lc=en
i installed the drivers with right click on .inf files and choose "install" (on windows xp) then connected my phone with usb and adb driver installation started by windows as usually with drivers. (then started the runme.bat)
EDIT2: CONFIRMED WORKING on Xperia Mini Pro (Sk17) 2.3.4 FW 4.0.2.A.0.58
Thanks to Revolutionary Team and DooMLoRD for the amazing work! root'n'roll!
Does this method corrupt the DRM TrackID feature?
Nope it does not......
It doesnt mess with the bootloader in any way......
It worked a charm. Thanks.

MiniCM7 is indeed the best option, but you will need an older version in order to run in on stock kernel. Go to the link provided in one of the previous posts, click on the word 'Downloads' and find MiniCM7 2.0.7, it's based on Gingerbread 2.3.5, and will run flawlessly on stock kernel.
