I'm having trouble accessing xrecovery on my phone. I have the latest version of busybox and the latest xrecovery too. I flashed a custom kernel from zdzihu and ever since I can't access it. Anybody got any ideas to fix this?

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 =)

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.

Hi I'm trying to install zkernel on baseband 67. I have done a fresh install using seus. rooted it via flash tool reboot, then installed busy box from market and then installed xrecovery with flash tool and installed the zkernel with flash custom zip. When the phone boots the kernel is still the same. I can't see what in doing wrong.

out of personal experience ive noticed that using the freexperia version of xrecovery gives me problems wen installing kernels. but i dont have the same issue wen i use zdzihus xrecovery. try installing Z's version and it shud work.
you can use freexperia recovery to install zkernel, just flash this chargemon after kernel install, chargemon_FXRec_default_CUSTOM.zip, can be found here:

Dont forget to thank DooMLoRD for his help fixing all guides and howto's
I just installed xrecovery and it worked perfect, and I helped doomlord test his back to stock method for people with broken usb connectors, so I already have loads of respect and thanks for him and thanks to you guys for pointing me in the right direction.

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

U may be able to install xrec as a zip with root explorer. You'd have to place it in right place I'm system somewhere and set permissions for it manually (not sure how to do this but a member called Milton.bain has dome it few times try asking him for help)
