No you can`t!!!
In SE case you ALWAYS maust flash with PPC, SEUS or Flashtool.
Only when bootloader is cracked we`re able to install SE rom through xRecovery.
The only thing xRecovery allow in SE case is restore from a backup file...

Nope, how did we install the pre-rooted 2.02 firmware?!?
With xRecovery...
You just need the X10 Flasher if there's a new kernel, baseband etc to flash.

Is there a way to safely copy the previous image or a backup of the system to a pc or something?

If you stay at 0.2 xRecovery.. you can copy it anywhere( if you can't remember the date of backup, rename it how you want)

[Q] Anyone knows how to install the new 2.3?

I have an x10i that was an x10a(Not really sure what my phone is now), im running "Eclair Bitsnacker.com v2.6, BB 2.1.54, KV 2.6.29, Buuild number 2.1A,0.435"
Do anyone know how to update to 2.3? I want to run the CM7.
The link on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=927140, the MT enabler is dead and so as the gb_alpha_0008 is dead.
Use the GB by J from here
Just unpack the file, flash the baseband then flash the rom.

And before installing ROM wipe everything in xRecovery.
Thanks! I'll see if I can get my X10 to run this CM7! Hoping nothing goes wrong. Oh! and one more, how do you flash the rom after I flash the x10?

just FYI, your phone will always be X10a, it doesn't matter if it says X10i or x, it's whatever the Dev wrote. I changed mine to say 'denenatse' :-D

Xrecovery not working on x10

My phone isn't even connected to the pc or anything so why does that come up then?

An easy way to solve this problem(sometimes useful):
1.rename the .zip file as update.zip
2.reboot into xRecovery use install update.zip to flash the file

Hey, don't worry... The worse that can happen is that you lose your information... I know it sucks, but I think the only way to get it back to work again is to restore the phone's software...
If you have PC Companion installed in your computer all you have to do is turn off the phone (or remove the battery) and then run the PC companion software and clic on update/repair software... then plug your phone by pressing the back button and release the button until the led light turns green... then just follow the on-screen process... it's not that hard!
Let me know if this works out for you!
what do you do before that? and flashmod run or not because there is a siple solution if it run . flash a generic version or use seus but you loose all in your phone

Try flashing a gingerbread firmware using flashtool:
Enable usb debugging in settings
Download & install flashtool here: http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
Download a generic 2.3 build here (& put it in the firmware folder): http://www.multiupload.com/JEXUAHAZTL
Open flashtool, click on the flash icon , choose flashmode, select firmware & flash
Do you unlocked your bootloader? Do you flashed a new ROM??

Have you tried going to Advanced > Root > Force psneuter? thats what i have to use on my device for it to be rooted
Before you click the root button, you turn on Unknown sources and debugging?

[Q] X10 Mini Pro & Clean V6 Issues

Hello everyone..
Im using Clean V5 found here: Great rom and pretty fast!
But im having issues with the phone constantly rebooting after flashing V6.
I downloaded the zip, copied it to the sdcard, rebooted phone into recoverymode, made a backup. Choosed custom zip had it flashed and after i made a full wipe and rebooted.
It gets stuck at the blinking marker, and after awhile it reboots and loops.
Note, i can go back into recoverymode and reset.

Are you use firmware 2.1.1.A.0.6?, if yes you must flash 2.1.1.C.0.0 firmware

Well since Im using V5 I should have the compatible firmware.
I cant check it either in my phones settings meny since it says Clean0.0.

Maybe you should re-flash again 2.1.1.C.0.0 original firmware. With this way you never got the problem

Or where can i find a standard/generic nordic firmware?

Love your dedication of helping
I just found a clean backup on my computer Ill restore and see what firmware it is and try V6 this weekend.
Edit:
The backup I had didnt have matching MD5 for some reasons but I managed to use SEUS and phone was restored to original firmware
I just flashed V6 and I do have compatible firmware "C.0.0" and holy cow it works!
Maybe the term 'firmware' is confusing. Because V6 -ROM- contains a dualtouch module that only works with the 2.1.1.C.0.0 -KERNEL- , it can cause problems.
There's a link in the first post of the rom thread (read carefully) to the right kernel (.ftf file) which you can flash using flashtool.
Sorry I didn't see this before, since V6 I'm just using the phone ;-)
