Entire thread about rooting, STICKIED in the General X10 forum: SuperOneClick.
From 2.1-update 1 and above, use SuperOneClick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906248
Next time.. SEARCH!
Please search in future as this is a very common question and has undoubtedly been answered. However, an alternative to z4root would be SuperOneClick

Now that I've made a new thread for rooting the X10i-model, anyone is free & welcome to add thorough instructions here on how to do so.
I'm a little tired of poorly written guides in the other thread that gives you nothing but confusion.
Please don't close this thread as I believe other people get confused TO about how to root an X10i.
Like THIS for instance:
1. Download the rar-file (link here).
2. Unzip/pack it.
3. Enable Debugging in Settings ->..............
4. Shutdown your SonyEricsson X10i.
5. Start StepX.bat
6. ...................................
7. ....................................
8. Done! Your phone is now rooted with version XXXXXXX

i don't see any link..
Why are you differing between x10i and x10a? Its the same. There is a much simpler way to root any FW.
1) Download and install flashtool
2) Plug in phone and press root
3) Done, reboot and there you go

There is already another thread with the same topic, please post there since this avoids cluttering the forum. On that note, thread closed.

I have used z4root and got root access. I wanted to know if I need to keep z4root installed or if I can remove it.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Once you gain root I'm sure you can delete it. And for future reference you may want to post questions in the general section to avoid getting flamed. Happy flashing :-D

Thanks I hope to hear some more responses, as I want to be 100% sure.
Yes you can delete it once you are rooted. I've used Z4root several times now and have removed the app every time.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You can delete it if you want but it isnt in the Market anymore. Google told those guys (also Ryans OCLF dont have the root part in it any longer) take them down.
But you can get the .apk HERE or HERE
I also found the update.zip root on the cyanogenmod wiki web site under vibrant. So if u ever need to reroot and can't find anything u can use that method.

That will only work with the 2e and modified 3e recovery, but not the real 3e. You will need the Super One Click root application for that.

Hi

Search for it in the forum
Should really help you.
There are tons of thread out there for root problems.
Peace
PS: Which update of 2.1 ?

I have no pc so its kinda hard atm do you have any links
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
This should solve all your problems
XDA Overview
Tutorial Rooting etc.
Hope it will work for you
By the way ...
You should work with a pc ... much easier than just workin with your device (do you ?)
It's not a big deal if you got a pc, because you can get root with one-click-tool
