That's weird. Careful you get the right version of PB00IMG. The one at the top of that thread is leak v1, not leak v3. Anyway, if you're still having trouble un-rooting, you might have to do it the old-fashioned way: un-root to 1.5 following the original "downgrade" instructions, and then upgrade to 2.1 by putting the OTA zip (renamed to update.zip) onto your SD card.
Yeah I may do that. I'm using the "patched version."

That's v1. Don't do that. I can't find v3 here on XDA, so search android forums for it instead. I'm pretty sure it's on the first or second page because there have been recent references to it.

maybe you don't have the busybox installed...
I did root my x10 using z4root permenant rooting and busy box was ok and xrecovery worked fine automatically..
used the custom rom freedom 8b and back to the original SE rom ,, which amazed me great work,,
now I used the custom rom black freedom 7a and the xrecovery wont install either automatically nor manually !! am kinda stuck with this rom,, tried rerooting and rebooted million times..
If anyone can help would be grateful
Thanks
manually copy the 3 files (chargemon, xrecovery, etc) into the /system/bin folder and make sure that you have the version of busybox from the market installed.
to manually copy these files u will need root explorer and make sure that you are mounted in RW mode.
I just did that and it works! Woo hoo!! Runs a treat with linpack around 33, still hasn't fixed the stuttering audio but hoping se will sort that in next update... fingers crossed

Xrecovery not working after latest stock rom
Xrecovery is definitely not working on my X10i after I stupidly re-installed the latest stock Rom... I have done all the normal steps and it now does not work... I have previously had various roms on this phone and now Xrecovery is not working im worried I'm stuck with the stock rom. Now don't ask me to press the back button and copy the files into the System folder...I've done all that I'm telling you there is something in the latest stock rom to block it in my opinion.

I just downloaded the update and it's installing. My phone is displaying an exclamation point with an android next to it and has been for some minutes. Is it suppose to take a long time?
I didn't time it but approximately 15 minutes including download. I noticed it rebooted twice.
Well then my phone got screwed because it's still frozen with the exclamation point. =S What to do now!?
pop the battery out of it.. and it should boot fine..
If you did the webtop mod undo it before doing the update...
i had the same problem but i decided to wait and then it went in to recovery mode... in recovery mode it was trying to install update but for me it says the installation aborted.. i dont know wht to do....
I had to defrost all of my frozen apps to get past that and update. The exclamation screen means the install failed because you need to undo any mods or freezes.

As a last resort, you can always SBF flash back to retail 1.2.6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072
Then aRoot your phone and follow this thread so you can keep your root after the update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013931
SBF Flash back is most definitly the last thing on my list..so i'm going through /system/app and noticed that DockProvider.apk, PortalApp.apk & DockService.apk are the only ones missing the .odex files..i'm pretty sure this is where the problem is.
-----EDIT-----
FOUND THE SOLUTION!!..i hope..downloading DG's retail dump now..originals including .odex files should be in there. . . . Worked like a charm. Attached the files needed enjoy!

What would save alot of people from running into this situation would be to make a copy of your /system files with ADB before making any changes, that way, you will have your original files to push back onto the phone if anything goes wrong or in this case, need the original files back to do an update and avoid the whole SBF to retail step...
Glad it worked out for you
Hi guys,
I've got a big problem, I've used "format/system" in xRecovery and now when I reboot, I'm only getting the Sony Ericsson logo. I did a backup on SDcard but I'm a Mac user so I've used Crossover to use SEUS and try to restore. The problem is the phone isn't detected, only the green LED is turn on but nothing happen on the Mac...
I'm gonna try on PC, but if you can help me ... it will be great !!
(Sorry guys for my english, but I'm a french student who spend more time on his X10 than in english class !)
I think you use flashtool and flash a 2.1 firmware
Flash Tool
2.1 Firmware can also be found in the flashtool post.
Can you use xRecovery after this problem?
If so, why don't you restore the backup that you have made ?

I think the format erases the xrec. In this case, as the colleague up there told him flashtool is the solution.

Hi jojooo89,
I suppose crossover might not help you in flashing even thought it might detect the phone after some tinkering.
flashing works only on windows either throught SEUS or flashtool...
the reason being usbflash.dll is only on windows.

If you can still get into x-recovery, you could try mounting your SD card, copying over a ROM and then installing it with x-recovery

This is not true. In 'Partition Tools' there is a 'Format System' option that formats everything including the system files/folders. Since XRecovery files are in the 'System' folder using this option removes XRecovery. There is a warning in the XRecovey thread to never use this option without having another system image to replace it with.
I would assume based on that warning though that there is some way to replace the system but thats a question for Z.
