Hello all,
I've been reading around a bit, and I cant seem to find an answer, so sorry if this is blindingly obvious.
I have successfully rooted and installed a custom ROM by slade, owain and the gang (brill job btw), but I'm using xrec. version 0.0.1.. an alpha I think?
Is there a more up to date version I should be using, if so, can I "Flash" the new version onto my phone? or will I have to install the newer version, if one exists?
Thanks
Simon
hey plze help me>>>>>>>
i rooted my x10 mini and copied all the three
1.busybox
2.chargemon
3.xrecovey.tar
but i can't go to recovery mode after tuning on and pressing back button at sony ericsson symbol.............pze hep me.........
Xrecovery
Did you install busybox from the market version 1.19 i think is the latest.
then copy the xrecovery files over, reboot and you should be fine?
use super manager to mount the /system folder as R/W (read / Write) other wise it wont copy them properly.
i just did it this week, and it worked fine.

1. You use a program called SuperOneClick (I uploaded that just now as well): http://www.mediafire.com/?4j7b6sgeiadkx09
After root, do not run a root test. Also, don't forget to reboot your device for the root to success.
2. First, you need something called CWM Recovery, follow my link and follow the instructions I made in the rar package: http://www.mediafire.com/?kvhq30gbqqkz6li
BUT!! DO NOT FORGET TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ROM VERY THOROUGHLY! Many people forget to read THIS:
Installing MiniCM7
Download the latest MiniCM7 ROM from the 'Downloads' page
Backup your /data contents: contacts, apps, sms, etc.
Rename the 'release'.zip file to update.zip
Download the latest Google Apps for CM7 from here
Copy the update.zip, as well as the downloaded Google Apps for CM7 zip that you previously downloaded to your sdcard (top level)
Reboot to CWM recovery
Keep a backup of your current status using CWM's Backup & Restore in case you want to restore.
Select 'wipe data/factory reset' if you were not already using MiniCM7
Select 'apply update from sdcard' from the top menu of CWM recovery
Flash the Google Apps for CM7 zip you previously downloaded via 'install zip from sdcard'
Reboot (first boot will take ~2 mins)
Once your device has booted, you can navigate to CM Settings -> System -> Update notifications and select 'Register'. This way you can get update notifications on new versions of MiniCM7!

Follow the above instructions very thoroughly or you might get stuck in a boot-loop, phone not booting at all or you might face WIFI/Bluetooth problems.

Are you hitting the back key repeatedly as soon as you see the SE logo? If you are and its still not working try Bin4ry's flash tool 0.9.2.1 and under one of the options menus, not sure which, select "boot into recovery".
Let me know if this helps
I have had the same problem and Flash Tool fix it.
Steps:
1. Download and unpack Flash Tool,
2. Connect your phone,
3. Use button: Ask root perms
4. Use button: xRecovery
5. Finally goto menu Advenced->xRecovery->Reboot Into Recovery
Thanks a lot, Dennis
hey guys i found my mistake, i used copy instead of move the files with root explorer( when you use copy it wont work just tap move to move the xrecovery files and it works right away).
But thx for the info guys.
Can you tel me whats a good rom for the mini?
Xrecovery

Firstly install recovery use quagg's AIO Automatic installation script, now boot into xrecovery by pressing back key repeatedly, in xRecovery menu use back up and restore to create backup...
for installing rom, download any rom available for mini or mini pro, select the best by checking the reviews,
Place the ''your rom.zip'' on your sdcard and boot in recovery by pressing back key repeatedly when u see sony ericsson on screen, after u got into recovery menu, select option install update.zip from sdcard , select the zip and ur done now reboot ur phone and enjoy ur froyo(2.2) or gingerbread(2.3)
ps: use volume rocker to move up or down in recovery menu and home key for selection!

Hi. I'm a newbie on xda and I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me.
I have a problem with my X10i. It used to run stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread with root access and busybox / xRecovery 0.3 already installed. I decided to install DiXperia 7 'Avenger' by DiKeJ (greetings, buddy) on my device using xR. I downloaded the ROM and pasted it directly into my SD card. Then I did all the steps:
-Factory Reset
-Wipe Cache Partition
-Wipe Dalvik Cache
-Wipe Battery Stats
I choosed Install Custom Zip to install DX7. The console displayed few lines of code which I don't remember and this error:
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Device or resource busy)
E: Can't mount /sdcard
After this my phone freezes on SE logo, I can't run xRecovery, system or even charge my phone. I tried to flash it using Flashtool, but it doesn't recognize my device.
Is there any chance to resurrect my Xperia? I want to use it again, even with the stock ROM?
Greetings
Yes it possible, and impossible to break your device for now - sometimes this problem exist, don't know why, and not only on my ROM - it's possible on all X10, I had it too one time when I wanted to flash Wolfbreak's ROM v4 (old time ). Let's back to your problem - you need to apply again Stock ROM 2.3.3 - install it via SEUS/PcCompanion (or FlashTool, but I suggest official app. If you can't flash via FT, then you need to update your drivers for X10), and then make Root, Busybox, and xRecovery 0.3, I suggest you GB ready (the newest FlashTool have it included all). Then problem should dissapear, without anything. I think it should help. Take care buddy .
DiKeJ I can't remember. Does Your ROM require an unlocked bootloader?
Sent from X10
Use this tool forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415600
Thank you very much, DiKeJ. My X10 has been saved!
But I still want to install DX7. What did I do wrong (or what's wrong with my SD card)? How can I make it work next time?
Anybody care to tell me how to get any of those methods to work? I got my x10 stuck at the SE logo while flashing, and I can't do anything with it. None of the programs can recognize it and it won't boot into recovery.
can you help me my x10i freeze at "Sony Ericsson" after rooting kernel help me please
im from philippines and i don't think we have sony ericsson care here
can you send me in my email? [email protected] please
I guess the best solution to get ride of this issue is to flash the stock full firmware and then do everything from the beginning.
To do that, you should visit this topic : [TOOL/X10] [UPDATE 07/04/2012] Flashtool version 0.6.9.0
Then flash a generic firmware(you choose whatever you like) using flashtool
Once your phone is booted, you can try to mod it as you wish.
If you would like to change the kernel, I advise you to unlock the bootloader : read the topic
Hope this gonna help

Hi, i have same problem and i try diferent things to make work, and wont work, still Sony Ericsson logo there, i try update service from Sony, any advice? I`m a noob about this.
I try to root the x10 with FlashTool, after that when i try yo flash to update kernel, logo freeze, i wait 10 minute, still freeze.

Thank you very much!
Edit: I fix the problem, with SEUS and a trick, i plug the usb in phone, press the BACK button, and then put the battery in the phone, and SEUS autodetect my phone, and now is updating.
Repair the phone using SEUS if nothing else give good results

It should work in x10i manong, just start from the beginning which you need apply again the stock 2.3.3 ROM from sony ericsson (sony mobile these days) via PC Suite then Root and install busybox and xRecovery 0.3 and the problem is solved. I tried it to my friend's phone which is x10i also, and it works. Just follow the instructions given by DiKeJ and you'll be fine. :good:

http://xperiaxlapan.blogspot.com/2011/03/installing-xrecovery.htmlMine is aborted. But solved using Flashtool by DooMLoRD fixes.
If aborted, try DooMLoRD's flashtool "FlashTool_0.2.9.1-GBready_root_xRec" from link below, tutorial + video reinstalling Xrecovery (fixed) available:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196808

Gimme reply if got result alright?
Whitefang
open flashtool with x10 plugged in
click ADVANCED then RECOVERY, and choose SET DEFAULT RECOVERY
choose the recovery you want from the list that pops up
now click ADVANCED, REBOOT, RECOVERY and choose REBOOT DEFAULT VERSION
that will adb the phone to reboot to xRecovery or CWM whichever you chose
