Need Rooting Help - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I need some serious help. Ive been trying for days to get my phone re rooted again but nothing is working I have tried everything but nothing.
I upgraded my phone to 2.1
then i flashed the Generic 2.0.2.A.0.24 firmware and that was fine
then i flashed SW_Ging_Rom_V0.3 and then was fine
but i then i updated software from PcCompanion
and for the last 3 days i cannot root
I have tried every method and nothing and im getting frustrated.
Methods i have done
exploid got to rootshell, permission denied switched to superoneclick just looping
installed z4root (doesnt root)
Used superone click after looping used method to stop looping not working
tried to downgrade, flash not finding device
Done a factory reset. tried all methods nothing
cannot install recovery because i need to root. cannot change permissions because i need root cannot do anything because i need root.
Can anyone please help me.

Rooting unsuccesful?

Usually, i use z4root to root my x10. Its very easy and fast
But since yesterday, I messed up my phone and all those apps gone in the menu, but the memory is still there
So i decided to restore with SEUS
i updated to a newer software
after that, z4root no longer working
SuperOneClick v1.5.5 also not working as well
Can anybody tell me any solution or ways to root the phone?
Thanks

You've updated to a new ROM which, until now, is unrootable. However, you can flash the previous ROM, re-root it and then flash zdzihu's pre-rooted ROM along with JiT.

[Q] Problem rooting x10i

My phone was rooted a month ago using superoneclick. Then, three days ago, i unrooted it to update my phone to get the multi-touch function. Now, i tried every possible rooting method, including z4root, universal androot, superoneclick etc. When i use superoneclick, it keeps showing "Device has temporary ADB root, Reboot to remove it". I rebooted many times and tried again but it keeps showing it.

Read, read, read.
You need NEW superoneclick or NEW flash tool!
I can only temporary root. Superuser stays after reboot but useless. i nid shell root. Plz tell me how....

Major issues with Lg506go(Optimus) 2.2.1 rooting...

Ok! Hi again folks. Today i was trying to root my wifes new lg506go(Optimus) and got a bit surprised with how the phone would respond to that. At first i thought it was going to be pretty simple using z4 root method. But it didnt work at all, tried a few times by the way. Then i decided to give it a go to superoneclick method but never made it either. Tried UniversalAndroot also just to make shure and it didnt work also. Downloaded Optimusroot.zip and tried the ADB method and every command was accepted but then when i enter the command rageagainstthecage it didnt work also. Some files are missing. It has superuser already installed but cant gain complete root acces. Oh, by the way tried gingerbreak also with no succes. Rom manager is installed but i cant flash the recovery because it doesnt have complete permissons. Can someone give me a different idea or am i just an unlucky guy? Thanks in advance!
Nevermind folks! I was using an older gingerbreak version than 1.2 and it was downloaded from a different website. Just downloaded gingerbreak 1.2 from here and the phone was rooted!

I9200 root after been rooted and updated firmware???

Hi folks,
Ive been having a strange problem with a couple Galaxy Mega I9200. I have rooted both before without any problems using KINGO originally. The i decided to update both of them with version UBUCNA2. When i tried to re root them back, even though the process have run fine a couple times the phone is not rooting. At this point i dont know what else to do to try to root those phones. I have tried every single method around this forum i think not just KINGO this time. And have not been able to reach root the way it should. Titanium backup shows not able to aquire root priviledges, and other root apps also. Can someone please help me on this?? Keep in mind im not a newbie so dont give me the recovery method advice without something new or to use KINGO because ive have done that already. Thanks a lot guys
You upgraded your phones to the latest knox enabled firmware which has the knox bootloader. You cannot go back to an older firmware or flash a custom rom now.
To root, try the directions provided in this thread and use the melius3gxx files instead of meliusltexx.

Ok thanks, the phones already had the knox apk so my guess was that it was going to be the same thing. Thanks for clarifying that one. And thanks for the advice.
Thanks again, turns out the only thing that is failling root access is when i try to unlock the phone via box. For some reason when its checking for SU access it fails. But thanks anyway i managed to solve the Root problem.
root.
I rooted through Phill touch Recovery.
