i have a X10i on Sony Ericsson's 2.1 ROM for the 02 network.
i have tried one 2.1 ROM which has worked on my phone which i found on XDA Devs.
i have been using Z4 root.apk and it force closes before it finishes the root.
Z4 root has worked before on my phone.
i have reinstalled the 2.1 stock ROM from Sony Ericsson 3 times to see if this will rectify the problem.
nothing seems to work
please help.
you probably have the newest variant of 2.1 (2.0.2.A.0.24) which is unrootable at present.
You need to search... maybe a few threads down from this one.
Or to save you the trouble HERE

Looks like it, but it's older fw, so not sure you want to install it.

Settings > About Phone > Software update
Make sure you're connected to your wifi as the update will be 150mb or so.
Alternatively, you can download Sony Ericsson update Service SEUS and update it that way.
If there is no update available on your carrier then you should probably try debranding - although I'm not sure if it voids the warranty of the phone in your country.
Got a stupid question here What is debranding?

thank you all for the ifo
By the way can someone explain me what R1...R2... mean? is this due the fact dates, coutrys?
Can`t someone here try to organize firmwares by release? I think this way would be very helpfull for all of us 10 asses
There is a thread that exists here which has all the firmwares according to countties written down...the 029 version u hav mentioned is the chinese or japanese rom...not sure which...just check...

I don't think they mean anything.
Probably only versions.
The list so far:
R1EA018
R1EA025
R1FA014
R1FA016
R1FB001
R2BA020
R2BA023
R2BA024
R2BA026
Some of them are SO-01B only or X10a/X10i only.
Tnks for this info bro ;-)

Debranding is basically giving you a generic device rather than for example being on Orange, in which they have put apps on that they want, ( in my case it was traffic tv).
If you have a branded phone then you do not get updates as fast as a generic one
R1EA029
h t t p : / / www.ptcrb.com/ctiastaff/complete/view_complete_request.cfm?modelid=16719
It`s actual one, but JP soft for DOMOCO SO-01B.
i used bin4rys flashtool to flash the nordic firmware onto my at&t x10a (it worked flawlessly btw) ive been seeing posts saying that because mine was originally an x10a i cant upgrade to 2.1 through pc companion. I also read that 2.1 will mess up my 3g, i have my 3g info written down and can manually put it in without any problems so would i still have a problem?

No, bin4ry says the radios are different and whatnot. You didn't read the other threads. Best to wait and let the devs take a look at the firmwares first rather than blindly flashing.
Go back to a legitimate x10a firmware and wait -- otherwise yes there is a possibility that you wont be able to upgrade through SEUS at all.
-.- well in a way this works out cause now i finally have "allow non market access" as an option. Soooo our best option is to wait for a flashtool for 2.1?

It does NOT. You can flash your phone with Nordic but you can NOT go anywhere from there on. Because SEUS will tell you that you have the latest FW and PCC says that can not download the file for you phone,

Can anyone with x10a verfity that the nordic flash method gets you 2.1?
i formatted the sdcard and the partition system using xrecovery... then reboot but i am stuck in the boot screen... i can't access the xrecovery and the on/off doesnt work anymore... so in order to turn off the phone, i have to take the battery out. cannot connect to PCC and SEUS...
any help or there is no more hope for my phone
sorry for my noobism
xperia x10 mini pro
Only way is to download the flash tool, flash se 2.1 rom, root it and install xrecocery.
Since your system is formated the files required for xrecovery is gone.

Currently, Sony's stock Android 4.0.3r5a cannot be rooted, nor can it be downgraded to an earlier, rootable version. "Reading" is your friend.

Hello everyone,
I reflashed one of my U's with GB 2.3.7 (.184), and so far none of the methods I tried to root it were successful. I tried One Click Root, I tried using the flashtool, and I checked out the video from the guide thread, but none of them worked, and i don't want to have to upgrade to ICS again. Please help me out here. Thanks!
