When I boot to xrecovery and try to install a custom zip it does not work quotes "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)" How do I fix this issue?
My phone isn't even connected to the pc or anything so why does that come up then?

An easy way to solve this problem(sometimes useful):
1.rename the .zip file as update.zip
2.reboot into xRecovery use install update.zip to flash the file

If is .49 then contact the maker, but if is someother else baseband, then repair your phone.
Baseband was .54 but with ginger says unknown

Only ,49 baseband is supported mate. Repair your phone via seus and then flash in the required baseband. Also read the first posts containing instructions to install the ROM a bit more carefully in the future. It saves your time by avoiding such errors to happen.
Cheers!

Buddy, did u upgrade the firmware before installing gingerbread? The issue generally happens when you dont have the required baseband.
I have been using it for over 2 weeks and it seems fine, you cannot mount the SD card by default, you need to use the program automount, auto mount did not work for me in v12, but in v13 it worked fine.
Considering you installed gingerbread you ought to have xrecovery, boot into it and go to partition tools and select auto mount and you will be able to use the SD on ur PC.
Click on thanks if i was of any use to you.

Hello guys! I want to know where to find the stock original SE rom 2.1.1.A.0.6 to install it via xrecovery? (update.zip or custom.zip) not for flashtool.
thanks.

Just flash your device, at once root and install xrecovery, then go into xrecovery and do a backup and there you go. Got the zip in xrecevory folder on your SDCard.

OP asked for a 2.1 stock rom.. Don't you think if he could have used SEUS or FlashTool he would have used that instead of asking for a xRecovery image?
Here's the deal, which I believe is the same reason the OP asks for a stock rom to flash with xRecovery.
My USB port is busted. Dead. I have better odds at winning the national lottery than making my computer connect to my X10. but I have one last hope. I have a working copy xRecovery installed on my custom X10! trouble is, if I am going to claim warranty for my phone I need a stock rom.
So, while it is possible to flash custom roms so why is there no stock roms available for xRecovery? or is there?
I install JRom and found out that this rom is exactly the same with the original stock rom I had when I bought this phone.
Thx ... never think of that before... °_°

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.

I had the exact problem earlier this week after installing a custom kernel. There is a way to reinstall xrecovery without using flashtool. It basically involves moving the files from xrecovery.zip to the correct system/ files.
Go into the development forum and look for the xrecovery thread. Someone has upload the correct files on the last couple of pages bin.zip and xbin.zip. You simply move(overwrite) the two file contained in bin.zip to the system/bin folder...then move(overwrite) the two files contained in xbin.zip to the system/xbin folder..
Thanks it worked =)

Hi all .
I recently rooted my device , and btw it works perfectly.
But now I get "access denied" errors from superuser without any "allow" or "deny" options..
It just denying it all.
But, some applications does get "allowed" from superuser.
I tried to change in superuser to "allow all" but still doesn't helps.
And.. Its kinda feel that I hit nonrooted phone, which is very annoying.
Can someone help me please??

It's old method for GB.
@LiVeBeaT: Since you are now on .62 problem will be as that doomlords kit won't work on .62, only on lower fw's.
Do you have installed CWM? If not try installing it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509

So Superuser gave you access to install CWM.
Good, now let's try this.
Download file from attachment put it in sd card, and flash it trough CWM.
Then test with few apps to see if it will ask you or if you will still have old problem.

I think you don't need to unroot. New root files should replace old files, but let's first try with first part of this post.

what?
simply select "install zip from sdcard", after that "chose the zip"(or something like that) and then find your zip(which you donwloaded from post above #14) and click on it, it will ask if you really wanna do that, you say yes, and that's it.
What system(from sd card), what are you doing?
the file that you attached in the previous post contained the folders
META-INF
and system .
when i go CWM>install zip from sd card>choose zip from sd card
it shows me the contant of my sd card .
then i entered the folders METAINF&system and i was told there is nothing in those dolders! im confused :S
EDIT : ohhhhhhhh :S i got it ! i accidentally extracted the zip =,= im sorry . trying again now
NEW: ive installed the zip and rebooted .
no change .. still denying . \:
