how to reset my x10 rooted? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Helo, how to reset my x10 rooted? i will falow the steps from setings or i have to do something else? please help

In setting there is factory data deset, but i think your question is maybe about removing root perm. So actualy I'm not sure if factory reset will help. You can use SEUS to install fresh new 2.1. When it shows that you are runing the latest software, just ignore that and hit "Install". Other way is to unroot maybe with SuperOneClick, or third is with flashtool if you have a ftf file with your branded firmware (if you are branded at all).

just go with Root explorer at /system/app and dell SU.apk

[Q] SE X10 Root problems 1.6 to 2.1(2?)

Hello everyone,
First of all, thanks for suchs a wonderfull forum about almost every mobile!!!
*** I don't understand a thing about developments or development terms.***
I've rooted my phone via the first root available for SE X10 ( So I could delete Moxier crap )....
Now, there's a update available via SEUS. But!!! I can't use it ... It wont install. I think it's because I've rooted my phone!
Firmversion: 1.6 Build-number: R2BA023 Model-number: X10i
Can somebody help me to take it back to factory state? ( Or a root update for 2.2 )???
I really need a good easy root progress, because I don't understand a crap about dev. language!
I hope somebody can help me!!!
Sincerely
Mike

1st of all there's no need for him/her to flash his phone that way, he/she has to use pc companion or SEUS
2.- titamium back up must be installed in order to delete moxier
3.- super one click is right to root
you must have root access to use titanium backup.
so root and delete the crap.
So what program do I need to use now?
Oh, I'm a boy^.-
But, my phone is rooted to 1.6. ( This was the only way I could delete Moxier ).
Now I want a FULL restore ( So it'll be a normal "legaly" bought phone.
So, that all roots are gone, and I'm able to update anytime.
Merci,
Mike
SuperOneClick didn't work for me. Root - Unroot - etc.
I just don't understand a thing about it !
I really need a full explanation for everything :S!
Sorry:/
Mike
superOneClick root
titanium backup
and delete the useless apps.
What's with the Titanium Backup? I don't need anything I have atm.
I already got my contacts stored in my laptop, so Titantium backup isn't needed for me.
But, if I try to root it, it says something about "Superuser" :/
Can't figure it out!
Mobile information:
Modelnumber: X10i
Firewareversion: 1.6 <- must be 2.1 or 2.2 don't know what's out atm.
Smalbandversion: 1.1.27
Kernel-Version: 2.6.29-rel

[Q] Is there a way to root my 2.3.3 without losing all data/apps?

Hi.
I'm running my R800i with updated 2.3.3 (i used SEUS). My bootloader is locked (i think, because i bought the device from amazon, with no branding).
GingerBreak, SuperOneclick, zRoot, etc. aren't working.
Is there a way to root my device without losing all installed data/apps? I spent lots of time for configuring and customizing my phone.
As of now, if you want to root you have to unlock the bootloaders and flash a .img file through fastboot. Both procedures, and actually your question, are explained in thorough detail in this subforum, multiple times. You won't lose your data.
The reason i was asking is that somewhere in the forums i was reading reading that you can not unlock the bootloader on unbranded devices. I cant find the link anymore.

Unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device, so you can't simply flash the system.img because your data will be wiped before hand.
Two methods
Method 1
Backup using Titanium or Mybackup Pro
fastboot unlock, flash system.img
restore apps via titanium or mybackup pro
Method 2
Use flashtool to downgrade phone to 2.3.2 (dont flash userdata.sin)
root using gingerbreak, apply OTA update (DO NOT DO THIS IF BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED) and then you will be rooted on 2.3.3
Method 1:
Titanium won't work without root, or does it?
Method 2:
So when i use the flashtool to downgrade i can choose what parts of the device will get flashed?! I can downgrade without loosing settings, apps, data?!
I dont think that OTA is available in Germany, or from my Provider?! I had an Xperia X10 Mini before i got the Play, and never saw any OTA-Updates (i had never root or custom images on the X10 Mini). I always had to use PC Companion or SEUS.
Will SEUS work too? I did my 2.3.2 (with root) to 2.3.3 upgrade with SEUS and was able to choose either upgrade (apps/data will stay), or complete flash (factory-reset incl. upgrade). I choosed upgrade (apps/data will stay) but root was gone.
If OTA is not available for me, i have to choose Method 1, but then everything is "gone"?!
Edit 2: Forget it I just did it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1119074&page=2 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090&page=4 helped me out.
I didnt wipe anything or "clean" my system. I just did the downgrade. After that, i got 1 issue. I always got this message: "android.process.acore has stopped". Google said that this is an issue with synchronize the contacts, etc. But i didnt freak out I just installed GingerBreak, did the root, then the OTA, and after OTA everything was fine again. Now i have full rooted 2.3.3
android.process.acore wurde unerwartet beendet

Lost root after XXBLFB update

I had rooted my phone with CF-Root, but today I was prompted to install a system update and so I did without thinking it would do any harm (silly mistake I know) and now I don't have root anymore! I tried re-flashing with Odin but I still don't have root, does anyone know what to do?
Thanks

You still see the SU app, if so unroot in the SU app and then select the reroot option.

How should I restore to stock/factory reset for repair?

I'm wondering if there's a clear and fully working tutorial on how to unroot and restore a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro SK17a to stock so I can send the phone off for repair.
This is what I have so far:
UnRoot the phone using the ZergRush Exploit
Plug in phone and use PCCompanion and use the repair option.
I don't think I can so a Factory Reset on the phone since some stock apps were removed after root.
So has anyone else restored to stock after root and succeeded and is this the right way to do this?
Thanks.

Just use Sony Update Service and re-install the firmware with wipe data ticked.
OR
flash ftf file through flashtool with wipe data ticked ofcourse.
You don't even have to unroot because following any of the two methods above will automatically remove root access

Thank you for this, I was just making sure if I will do it right. I'll still unroot for additional "safety" since Sony Mobile's unlocked bootloader dispute, of course I didn't unlock it, yet.

Xperia Z2- Root Lost After Factory Restore

Unable to unroot and root issues!
Hi there,
So I recently performed a factory reset on my sony xperia z2 while it was still rooted with kingo root to update my phone. I realized this was a mistake and I should've removed the root first using the kingo software (kinguser) before performing the factory reset. Now I keep getting the following message from root checker (Sorry! root access is not properly installed on this device). I've tried everything to remove the root and reinstall root (Kingo Root fails every time) but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to manually remove all kingo root files? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank Youu
If no files needed use sony pc companion to fix z2 it'll put a fresh system. But keep in mind I'll erase all

Hmm...a simple factory reset does not update the phone, though it will wipe all your settings, basically returning your phone to its factory state. What version of Android were you on when rooted? What version are you on now? Did you take an over-the-air (OTA) update?
