[Q] Cannot install xRecovery on Xperia X10 On stock 2.3.3 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello i have tried 2 different methods of installing xRecovery.
First i have tried simply using flashtool to install xRecovery, but just gets stuck on Remounting system read-write.
Second i downloaded the zip file of xRecovery (Gingerbread) And put files into the respective folders using root explorer. Still no luck
Am i missing something? Thanks in advance

Yeah, there's two methods regarding how to get xrecovery onto GB does require a bit of youtube watching but i found it the easiest way of doing this 0.3 xrecovery version alone will not give u it you will need an additional zip to obtain it. If you head into the x10 general section look for the sticky how to flash custom roms for noobies (im a noob also) it will tell you step by step to get every working from backing up to xrec to flashing roms to restoring apps there will be 3 youtube vids in the first post vids 1 and 2 will tell you what u need to know the third is mainly for the rom.
like i said there's two ways of doing it the second way which i had to do was via computer using command prompt but as i said watch the vids they have all links on the youtube channel.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Have u tried the method by bluejchip I think his name is to get xrec on? He uses the command prompt method that's how I did it. I think I used xrec 0.2 not 0.3.. I can get the link if u like?
