As soon as the SE logo appears, press it repeatedly as in twice a second, and it should work.
still no luck..

I have the same problem but now the X10i wont go past the SE logo with the picture above it.
I removed the battery but after I reboot the X10i it still hangs.
What can I do about this problem???

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.

hi There
PLEASE HELP ASAP I THINK IV BROKE MY BELOVED X10
Im new to all this Mod stuff and i have no experience at ....... But I LOVE this Theme i found , its amazing!!!!!! so i rooted my phone using super oneclick, i then found RECOVERY, also got the theme [X.Gbread for 2.1 Official ROM 2.0.2.A.0.24 + Battery Circle] [new-v0.6]
Installed everything it all and was great!! everything went smooth, but some things were missing on the theme like the new swipe button, the wallpaper, the new clock etc so...... i then installed a previous version [X.Gbread for 2.1 Custom ROM AOSP], thinking that version had the bits i needed and the later version i installed first was a add-on, and now the phone will not boot up, it gets past the Sony Ericsson but wont boot past the Nexus S Bootanimation, then it restarts itself, and starts all over again, i dont know what to do as i know NOTHING about flashing phones. PLEASE HELP
Phone specs - what i had before
X10i
2.1 Update1
build no. 2.0.A.0.504
Rooted with SuperOneClick
Also busybox
Many Thanks
Leon
************* update i can get the phone to the Xrecovery screen, ive tried reinstalling both of the themes but it gets to the lock screen and when the lock comes off, a box comes up with a triangle exclamation mark on it that says 'Weeks' on it and underneath it says "year" with a button that says "%1$s %2$s" and when you press it nothing happens apart from sometimes the writing year changes to years, after a minute it reboots and does the same thing.
does anybody know how i could sort this out???
Have i 'bricked' the phone?? if so what does that mean and can i sort it?? would i be able to send it in for repair??
or how i could i flash i back to the original SE theme, with out it starting up????
hopefully somebody can save me because at the moment i have not got a phone and i love my x10 sooooo much!!!!!!
i knew i should have just left it alone!!!!!!!!
Thanks Leon
i would recommend you to do
1. a full wipe using the recovery
2. re-install the theme u wanted. (perhaps u should re-download the theme u wanted)
btw, did u install using the option "install custom zip"?
if those above does not helps,
1. re-install the firmware using SEUS or flashtools from Bin4ry
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825201&highlight=flash.
2. root it and install xRecovery and then install the themes u wanted.
You'll have to really flash. The problem here was that you mixed up to FW (.24 & .504) when you installed the first theme... it clearly says for which version it is my friend....
So reflash to any ROM you want but check first the theme you're aplying and also if you have Xrecovery do a backup before any Mod so you don't have to reflash again...
Have fun you're not the first nor the last with this I've been there done that more than once....

I believe for my version no. 2.0.A.0.504 it came up with the same box as before, unable to get onto my homescreen but can see it in the background.
i dont know if i will be able to reinstall the SE firmware as it looks very complicated. im in England and it looks like i would have to use the Nordic software???? im not sure please could somebody let me know of any easier way of installing SE firmware back on???

I'm a little stuck here and I'm not sure how this happened. I'm using a rooted X10a. I tried installing XRecovery and BusyBox so I could change ROMs again (I've tested a few) and somewhere along the way somthing happened and now after the phone boots, it doesnt recognize the SD Card, there is no notification/status bar and an Force Close message pops up "Process system is not responding". Then after a few minutes, it reboots itself. I've finally be able to connect it to Droid Explorer. The normal "holding the back button while plugging in the data cable" is not putting the phone into flash mode. I'm at my wits end, as I have been dealing with this for 2 days. Please if anyone has any ideas, any help would be appreciated. I really miss my Android
Conflict caused by double install of busybox? Or are you entirely sure it wasn't installed anymore? What happened to me was, I totally forgot that I already had busybox installed (though, not visible) and what happened was it conflicted with the other busybox/xrecovery hence breaking xrecovery and giving me almost the same symtoms you are experiencing. Unfortunately for you, I was able to just get into flashmode.. I take you tried SEUS?
What rom are you on ?
Sounds like you have messed up your xrecovery path.
Once you install xrec you dont need to install busybox as it depends on a certain version. I sugest you read z's xrecovery thread for more answers.
Hope you get it sorted.

Yes, but since the SD card won't mount because I have no notification bar it won't connect properly

you broke the xrecovery dude cause you installed again xrec and busybox...
if you install 2.2 above dont re install xrec again..
flash again (clean flash) take off your battery for 30 sec and put your usb cable in phone and hold the back button then insert the battery..
gudluck..
Is there by chance another way to put it in to flash? Plugging in the usb cable, then holding the back button while putting in the battery will not work

open the flashtool click flash, select firmware click ok.
then do again my instructions above.
I click "Flash" in the flash tool but when I go to select the firmware, it does not show up where I put it. Do i need a certain format of file?
You have to download the firmware and flashtool from here. To get the phone in flash mode follow X10b directions
i had the exact same problem in wolfbreak's 2.2 rom after i installed busybox again, it wouldn't flash with flashtool, etc, what i did to fix it was after it was booted, i opened flashtool and connected the usb, and after it said process system not responding i pressed wait, then clicked on flashtool install root, next to flash button, it installed and then it rebooted, then after it rebooted, i clicked on ask root perms, then the superuser thing popped up and i pressed allow, then quickly i clicked on flashtool install xrecovery, and it installed!!! Then I rebooted and xrecovery worked, so I restored a nandroid backup I had and then my phone was back to normal
I had this problem after editing chargemon in windows. Copy the chargemon from recovery.zip using adb push, then chmod 06755. Thats work for me

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.

ok guys heres what I have done:
1) ive rooted my phone using Superoneclick
That worked fine....
2) Next I have installed Root Explorer
3) I have installed Xrecovery - xrec given super user to my folders( i tried the other one you guys suggest but it kept asking me for which phone i had and mine wasnt listed (x10 mini pro)
4) Next I downloaded and put the ROms onto my sdcard
I put on Srom-2.2.1 Froyo-v8.zip, slade87_MiniCm7_v15.0.zip (and the CM6 one), robynten.zip and Andread 2.2.1 pro v4.zip
5) Ive gone into XREC after Sony Logo and installed one of the ROMS
6) rebooted phone, either stuck on splash screen or in a loop
7) gone back into XREC and tried a different ROM
8) same problem!
tried all the ROMS, none of them will boot up my phone...
According to Superoneclick im rooted ok, even tried reformatting card and doing again...
None of these work...
Any ideas where I am going wrong here?
would appreciate any help
pulling my hair out
seriously guys whats going wrong?
ive reinstalled the rom from sony update service and started again completely from scratch...
I have done this -
Root : Automate Installation
1. Download attached file "SuperOneClick".
2. Enable "USB Debug".
3. Connect phone to "PC" and select "Charge Phone".
4. Open "SuperOneClick" and select "Root".
5. Wait!
6. When it is done, reboot.
xRecovery : Manual Installation
- Phone must be rooted
- Download and install Titanium Backup. Run it and press Problems to install busybox or you can install standalone busybox in market !
- Download attached file and unpack the recovery package in to sdcard
- Use Root Explorer to remount /system rw
- Copy the content of the package (3 files) into /system/bin folder
- Chmod 777 for 3 files copied !
How to use xRecovery :
- Reboot your phone !
- Press BACK button few times right after white SE logo appears.
- Use VOLUME-UP and VOLUME-DOWN to browse, HOME to select, BACK to go back.
Ive done exactly as above and gone into XREC and installed the CM6 V5-XRECOVERY ROM and the phone is stuck on the splash screen
im pulling my hair out now as ive followed that guide exactly with a ROM which everyone says is stable
I have an X10 mini pro phone, all rooted, correct permissions and cant get it to boot with any of these custom roms
please help guys ill buy u beer! lol
Probably baseband mismatch, for sonybread and andread u require latest firmware 2.1.1.C.0.0 AND FOR some others its 2.1.1.A.0.6
And some roms are flashed using cwm nd some by xRecovery....
Goto recovery
Do a factory reset
and then install update.zip from sd card

Hello
This is the info from the service menu:
phone software version: 1235-3411_2.1.1.A.0.6
File system: World-1-8_2.1.1.A.0.6
The ROM you linked to is the one I tried to install, i believe there is one the says for XREC and one that says for CWM
I didnt manage to get either to work and infact after installing one ROM instead of back button taking me into XREC program, it then took me into the CWM Recovery so i guess the ROM also installs that?
I will try to install this ROM you linked again, is this for 2.1.1.A.0.6 and XREC or is it for CWM?
thank you

It's for xrecovery, yes, the rom installs CWM 3.2.0.0 instead of xrecovery, but xrec and CWM are kinda the same, so it shouldn't be a problem
Oh, and you have right kernel
I guess nilesby has answered ur question, all the best for flashing!

Confirming i got the Irdium ROM to install and work correctly
now factory reset and installed that CM5 ROM and still the same problem with "slide keyboard message"
seems odd that i can install Iridium and not the other roms?
Is it because my x10 mini pro is a u20i model? or are they all the same?
ive seen a lot mention the e10i?

hi galvic
just doing that now, im away on holiday in a few hours so ill finish it when i get back
ive been through this process quite a lot now so i think im missing something. Ill have a reread through the guides and see if i did miss anything
My whole reason for updating is because my screen isnt rotating. It is stuck in landscape mode (some apps like pinball play in portrait though?)
I downloaded some calibration apps and it shows the phone is rotating on x y and z but the software doesnt rotate(the option is ticked in settings)
Is there a sensor for the keyboard opening and closing? maybe i have a hardware issue?
If its a hardware issue than stock 2.1 shouldnt work? Is it working correctly???
you need to have right Baseband version
Most of all rom need M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 baseband version and 2.1.1.A.0.6 frimware.
For SonyBread same basedand version and new 2.1.1.C.0.0 frimware.
i think that's why you have problem with keyboard and sensor.
half fixed

sorry for late replies ive been on holiday
retried everything and still was stuck on the "slide keyboard back to continue" message
finally got the latest Andread rom to work
my screen doesnt rotate (the reason i wanted to update in first place)
Im assuming theres a hardware fault with the keyboard not being detected as nothing happens when i slide the keyboard
thanks for all your help going to stick with this andread 2.2.9 pro v8

Can your phone still bootup correctly ? If yes try an older version of flashtool had this issue flash kernel upgrade turn on debbuging and unknown source and start from there

Go to HERE and download Flashtool 0.4.2.0, with it, you can root, install xrecovery and unlock bootloader, if you wish.
You need have android 2.3.3, and don´t downgrade kernel.
If you want, install stock firmware.
It´s easy.
right, so do i just click install recovery?
because i rooted it, exactly like that, im running busybox version 1.8.4 or something like that, someone told me it automatically installed xrecovery when i rooted it... is this true? thanks
When you root phone with flashtool, it just root your phone. For install xrecovery you need click on install xrecovery, and when it over, you have xrecovery installed.

Yes, you click the install recovery button. And no, when you root your phone, xrecovery is not added.
A little reminder also, you will never break the x10 by flashing to many times. So every time you run into something like accidentally downgrading kernels, just flash stock FW and start over. Again, the only true way for someone to permanently damage the x10 is only by damaging the USB port. So hold dear to that little port.
Hope you resolve your issue brah. Peace
