Olá,
I'm having a problem rooting the X10i, since it was upgraded to Gingerbread. I had installed the latest version of SuperOneClick, and I'm doing just as it says The Unlockr step-by-step on Youtube. Had also sellected the exploit option "Gingerbreak". Still, when it gets to step 6, the program stucks.
Hope somebody can give me a hand on this issue, using the SuperOneClick or indicating another program.
Thank you very much!
you can try to use flashtool for X10, hope can help you!
I'll try it.
Thanks for your help! =)

if you just upgraded your phone from 2.1 to stock sony 2.3 GB upgrade then it cannot be rooted even with flash tool or super 1 click.
What you can do is to actually down grade your phone to 2.1 first.
Download flash tool and also download the firmware 2.1 version.
from the below link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
Once u download the firmware, place that .ftf file in the firmware folder of your flash tool.
Now flash the phone to 2.1, use the below link if you dont know how to flash it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
Now once ur phone is 2.1, just root it and install xrecovery.
now you can install any of the 2.3 ROM available in the development section and all these ROMs are pre rooted and recovery installed.
PM me if u need any help.
THKS!
Thank you very much, runaway_bunny!
Right now, I'm having no time, but as soon as possible, I'll try it and let you know if it worked.
See you soon, and thanks again!

Follow the directions on the flash thread. Some of the firmware packages do not include the loader.sin file. You need to add manually if use GUI. I think the non-GUI version still adds it for you. Bin4ny also provides the loader.sin files, the link is right below the link for the GUI version.

Hi All,
I am hoping that someone could help me. I am trying to repair my X10 using SEUS but it keeps coming back with the message that there is no software for my device. I am using Z's Froyo ROM at the moment... do I need to reflash stock ROM first then retry?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Yes and this is not the right section... This should go under Q&A!

You're absolutely right...sorry about that. Posting in Q&A was my intention... just wasn't paying attention.

Flash this ROM via Xrecovery then SEUS give u option for upgrade... an other thing is if u want to be on 2.1 this ROM is too good.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941745
Thanks farazafs. The point of this exercise for me is to see if I can restore my battery performance. I have read on the XDA forums here that using the SEUS tool to repair the device and then load the ROM has helped some people with this issue.

Downgrade to .24 then try SEUS to repair to .435
This worked for me, now I am rooting, etc.. and am going to reload a ROM
as i posted it here
AN7 OverClocker said:
If you have problem with the update via SEUS because it says that you have the latest update and wont lets you reinstall the OS, you should try the following
1. Go Here and download the .504 version and flash it via flash tool.
2. Boot your phone and finish the settings wizard.
3.Shut it down
4. Run SEUS and update to .435
I hope that helps for any upcoming problems.

Those aren't methods, those are frontend for the rooting exploits, such as rageagainstthecage, GingerBreak, psneuter, etc.
And yes, as of now, there is no exploit that can breakthrough SE's Great Wall of Xperia.

flash generic x10i and use flash tool.
Thanks, didn't think that was possible without Root. Will flash pre-rooted 2.3 asap.

I have read many posts about rooting my x10i with downgrading and upgrading. BUT today I found that there is some new exploit that allows rooting with one click method. ?!
I also read that this exploit I used in new flashtool. ?!
My x10i with stock 2.3 is very resistant to old methods so I was very happy to read about this new method.
Does this method works ? Do I need to do any magic or just use flashtool to root and instal xrecovery ?
Sorry for maybe noob questions but I'm a little confused.
Thanx in advance
Yeah man, root & install xRecovery with flashtool, just make sure that you're on gingerbread. You can always flash a stock firmware with flashtool if something goes wrong
Thank you very much for this answer.
Hey guys. Im having trouble rooting my wt19i Live Walkman Android.
Noob question, but i cant find any other place to ask - could someone point me to a useful thread, or a new method
I have attempted the DOOMLORD method, but the zip files always fail (from all 3 locations ive downloaded them from). The Eroot method doesn't pick up my device. And the Flashtool method cant work out the drivers.
Any ideas would be great!
THanks

Both of these were hopeful. it seems i have a problem with my zip tools. but im using 3 different tools (winzip, zip and IZArc)..... All have either 'CRC header" problems or 'CRC failed - File is Broken'.
Any ideas?
Im soo sorry for being the biggest n00b. but none of the other websites point out what this issue is! The FAQ's on these zip tools are not proving anything. FYI, the file it always has a problem with is the runme.bat
Use my pack, just disable antivirus
For what do you need zipping tools? To unpack?
Try downloading the files again and extract them using 7zip (maybe reinstall it) and try it again

No it's not. You should be able to root without unlocking the bootloader
Try installing PC Companion or SUS and Flashtool (drivers) again for the drivers and try all methods like mentioned in my guide, eroot or cydia impactor

Try installing pdanet
Try installing pdanet software on your pc and your phone as well,it will provide you with necessary ADB drivers for your phone :good: and then try to use flashtool. pdanet is basically a thethrng software for android install it to use flashtool.
1. Install .exe file on your windows pc and .apk on your phone.
2. Then Go in the drive where you have installed the flashtool, go to drivers and install x10 mini drivers.
Now flash the kernel Your phone is rooted :laugh: ,
You need to unlock your bootloader first do this.
