Do a search? Or look in the mini pro android development thread. There is a thread by Mikehvl that has a executable file that is super easy to use and will do both rooting and install xrecovery

with regard to your terminal as root the simplest way to do this is with one click super just google some no more than 4 steps
sorry for my way of this written'm Latino and I use google translator

You can't boot into xrecovery using that script directly. You still need hit the 'back' button (hard key) when the the sony ericsson logo appears.
However, there is a thread by doomlord in which you can install an app/widget that will reboot into xrecovery directly.

It seems as though no one is even working on one.. the mini is 100% capable but we just need more devs working on it

As i see we will never get cyanogenMod or MIUI... Even if our bootloader gets hacked!!! Everyone will work for x10 big and we just get stuck with SE... Please somebody tell me this is lieeeeeeee!!!!
I hope that doesn't be the case..
I'd guess it'd be safe to assume that once the X10 gets cracked, our Minis will follow soon, just as happened with the initial rooting
Actually it got cracked and there already are some custom ROMs for big x10 with froyo or eclair. So i hope ROMs for mini will be here soon.
For some strange reason developers don't want to release the source code for their hack until next year.
Unlike the custom rom project, we have x10 mini owners trying to crack the bootloader problem, so don't lose faith completely.
Now, with xrecovery to x10 mini/pro almost 100% functional (backup and recovery are perfects), is possible YES.
what do you mean xrecovery for mini I thought it was only for x10i !!

How?
Multi touch need other drivers
Load custom drivers need custom bootloader
Custom bootloader need cracked bootloader
No multitouch for you sorry

just install and boot into xrecovery and then launch the ddms.bat found in the tools folder of the android sdk.
alternatively you can download Droidexplorer and use its screencast function.
NOTE: You can only use a windows pc with pc companion installed to connect to x10mini using adb.

after installing custom rom i cant boot to xrecovery.. any1 can help?
what version of you rom ?
Hi, guy & girls
i am wanting to root my X10i and then install the gingerbread system on my phone, i was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of which method to use when rooting as i know there are a few tools out there for rooting, (easy as possible really)
Thank You, any help will taken on board..
Just look up flashtool on android development as it's probably the easiest method. If not then try superoneclick.
i have done superoneclick and the superuser app had appeared on my phone, how do i go about installing gingerbread?

Yes, but you must install busybox with flashtool, then install xrecovery from the xrecovery thread. Have you used flashtool before?
Then read about a gingerbread ROMS thread to install the ROM through xrecovery.
If you have trouble, I will post links when I get to a computer tomorrow.

Sues repair, or flash stock rom with flashtool. You won't have 'properly' bricked your phone. Iv had it a few times, its easy enough to fix by flashing like I said and use the flashtool to reinstall recovery and just restore your back up. Easy

million thanks to all, really appreciate it.
Hello guys,
I´m new here, and this is my first thread. Yes, I am a noob and I hate myself. And I have searched for the answer to this question myself, however, I could not find it, so if anybody could please steer me in the right direction ´Thanks´ will be obtained by all who have helped
I have:
Xperia X10i Dutch T-mobile branded.
I have rooted it WITHOUT opening bootloader.
It has Busybox from the market on it, it has Titanium backup on it. It has the Xrecovery 0.3.zip on the sdcard.
But this first sentence in the installationprocess puzzles me:
A: Install the zip package via your current recovery
How can I do this? As far as I know, I have no recovery program installed, and if I do, I am not aware of it. Do I need to install some other recovery in order to install Xrecovery 0.3, or am I missing a vital piece of information here?
(I tried using the installer app. It gave me 3 red crosses, saying the first file was already there and the other two were 'read-only' if I am not mistaking)
Any help is appreciated
Did you use flashtool to root your phone?

Also you can check if you have xrecovery by rebooting your phone and when boot hit back button until it enters xrecovery.

No, I used a small program named Root_Unroot Sony 1.5
It was a really quick and easy thing, just had to open the program, turn USB debugging on, enable install other apps, put screen time on more then 1 minute, plug in the phone, and press Root on the program. After that it had Superuser and some version of Busybox installed. I added Titanium Backup and downloaded Busybox from the market again, since the thread on Xrecovery was very clear that I needed that version.
OK than you need to use flashtool.

Like said earlier,you should install the latest flashtool as youll probably need that later.
Then you can install recovery and do a lot more.On my phone,when I switch it on,I wait for the blue led to light up,then I press the back button to enter xrecovery...

Ok thanks guys,
When I get home I will try Flashtool. I already have it op my pc but because I used that other program to Root I haven't used it yet.
