Hi,
before you'll say something: i've done everything in every manual i've found, the Flashtool guide für noobies too.
My problem is, i can't root my X10, flashtool says and superoneclick (i have used every version i have found) said always that my phone is not plugged, but it is!!
At the moment i use the latest firmware, 2.1.A.0.435
So what can i do? Has anyone a simple trick?
greetz Cracker, and sorry for my bad english...
Are you sure you have connected your phone is flash mode....you have to hold the back button while you plug in your phone. The notification led will be green if you've done this right..

Flash mode wtf?
Make sure you have unknown sources and usb debugging enabled then try again with flashtool

USB Debugging is on, and i tested it also on flash mode, but it doesn't helped.
So, i don't know where's the problem
Oops..my bad...he asked about root
Try changing the usb port and then try rooting... the usb port was the problem in my case, it was recognising other usb devices but not my phone.
Also try installing SEUS first so that it installs the x10 drivers onto the pc.
Thanks for your help guys!
I have tested it on an other PC from my friend and it works perfectly, don't know why
My brother had a same problem, and we spend 2 hours to solve...
The problem is: pc companion or seus not installed before...

Hey guys,
I have been looking evryone for this problem and cant find the solution, hell i even asked my Provider but they couldnt help me either.
In a nutshell my X10i (Android 1.6 Vodafone) Wont recognize my PC (windows Vista latest, 32 Bit).
I plug in the USB cable and it wont show a usb connected in the notification bar, however the notification light turns green.
When i try to connect my device to PC Companion it wont register the phone or locate its there.
I even tried to update the phone using SEUS but it wouldnt recognise it whilst in the "hold back" menu.
I have already tried these but they havent solved the problem;
-uninstall SEUS and PC Companion
-Reinstall SEUS and PC Companion
-change USB ports
-Change USB cable
-Checked and Unchecked USB Debugging
-change computer (still no help)
-I cant find anything in device manager
The problem seemed to have arisen when i reflashed the phone, using SEUS Repair, because i had forgotten the patern lock.
I really want to flash Official 2.1 or the AOSP rom!!!
Any solutions?
Thanks in Advance
EDIT: Everything else works fine in the phone

Ok i will try it later today, if not then tomorrow.
Because i have backed up my data using the backup and restore feature, will i be able to fully restore it after its wiped?

Hi
I have a very annoying problem:
My phone no longer registers when I plugin the usb-cable. It doesn't ask whether to go into usb-mode nor does it display that usb debugging is on. It is only possible to charge it and not to sync data.
Therefore I'd like to flash it back to a stock rom so I can get it repaired under the warranty. And since SEUS can't find my phone when it is connected, I need to find another way to do so.
So is it possible?
have u tried flashtool yet?
its under the development section

nopp charging and data goes in different cables.
Sent from my ARCified X10i with CM 7.0 RC1 2.3.3 Gingerbread
Have you first tried the following :-
1) Different usb ports some laptops and desktops have front/side usb ports so try a rear one
2) Different usb cable (if its the charge/usb cable that came with the phone it could be damaged or the wires bent/cracked due to over use plugging into charge and then using it as a data cable
3) Different PC just incase something is wrong with your own (corrupt driver etc)
I would try these things before you start if it will connect but only charge I'm guessing that the cable is maby broken
you could also try staring the X10i in safe mode power off power on and soon as it vibrates hold the down part of the volume button and keep holding this down until the phone boots up
This will give you a pretty basic mode (safe mode) with stock applications running no market downloads etc and then try connecting your usb cable up see if it works then ... you could have a rogue application that uses the usb for sync function like a media player etc!?
Wow, rude much. I was offering a solution that worked for me when I was having an identical issue. Because I was able to charge, flash mode still worked. Also, as stated above, changing USB ports can help. No need to get snarky
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
JimmyX10 is right, however..
The phone is ONLY able to charge over USB.. No flashing capabilities so far..
I've tried SEUS and the flashtool..
I've also tried:
3 different USB cables (also tested okay on my Optimus X2)
3 different computers
And a bunch of different USB ports..
BUMP
Does anyone have any good ideas?
Yes you can flash your rom without PC....
1-hope ur fone is rooted
2-xRecovery installed
3-Search dev section for stock rom xRecovery installation or request to upload the same for U..
4-transfer the xrecovery .zip file to ur card by card reader.
5-flash it through xRecovery...
I believe it will solve ur prob....
Try this guide:

i think theres no problem as long as you got your phone rooted and have the stock rom stored in your computer. then you can transfer the rom to your phone via an sd card reader. lastly install it using xrecovery. problem solved
Hello,
I got the X10 from a friend cause it's not running.. The last thing he knew was that he updated the phone to the version 2.1.. he tried to!
Now it's only vibrating once you've pressed the Power-Button. Several tools didn't work. No repair option worked.
Now i wanted to flash the phone with the actual version of the Flash tool, but my problem is that it's saying that the flashin-process is aborted that i should go into the menu and enable debugging .. but i don't get into my phones menu, it doesn't start!
What should I do to solve the problem?
Thanks!

My main problem is that i need to set usb debugging mode but i'm not able to start my phone to enable usb debugging.

Think u may need to repair phone with seus and flash 2.1 back to phone using the phones fash mode

Download pc companion on pc, without connecting phone use update service, click repair, choose your phone model and connect while holding back button when prompted. This will flash SE2.1

Thought the repair option was always available.
Not near a oc to check at moment .

So I'm back, didn't have the time yesterday.
I tried to use PC Companion with the repair-option but there appears a Download error after connecting the phone, while it's trying to download the firmware or what else it wants to download.. it says that i should check my internet-connection but my connection is fine! I tried it several times. On the web, there are many of that problems..
@zekill62, thanks for you tip! What Firmware did you use and what Flashtool(-version)?
I only tried it out about 3 times .. After every flash-tryout I must remove the battery for about 10mins... i dont have the time to try it out 25times and spend a whole night for that
--> And finally : DON'T USE "OPTIMIZE" WITH CUSTOM ROMS (or don't be sleepy if your mouse is on it !)
I dont know what you mean, i dont have such an option "optimize" with custom roms
Does no one have any solution to solve my problem? The only thing I want is to get a new version installed/flashed to my phone so its starting.. can't enable usb debugging because the phone doesn't start.
thx again
Is ur battery charged? U might need to charge it with an external charger
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
Yes it is charged. I have two batteries.
Same problem.. phone appears to be flashing with older version of flash tool but really slowly and eventually fails. Beta flash tool does nothing as it asks for debug mode.. debug mode was definitely on the last time my phone was working but it says its not...

@OP
in short u are f****d.!
try rooting it with super one click or zroot(somethinng like that).
Yo.. let me explain something.
When i rooted and downgraded the kernel it used the old ADB drivers.
When i upgraded it required the new ADB drivers.
Maybe that is your issue.
flash the generic SE firmware with flashTool. It should work...
turn off phone - take out battery - press back key - insert usb - insert battery.
That should do the trick. Then Flashtool to stock
I probably have used this method 50 times the past 2 days trying to upgrade to GB. Always flashes ok but phone wont boot. Finally gave up and stayed with 2.1 and upgraded to MIUI. So it aint dead yet, just injured LOL
2 different computers won't recognize the phone, I can't flash with flashtool! It goes into flag mode but flashtooldoesnt recognize the phone. Somebody know how to manually install drivers?
