xRecovery utility can be installed with FlashTool
how do i do that and is that the easiest way?
You can look at this thread for newcomers (Clickie!)
it contains all flashtool features, FAQS and instructions, and it also has instructions on how to install xRecovery. you should take a look ^^

Yes, it is the easiest way. Connect a phone with a USB-cable, start FlashTool (fresh version) and push the button "Recovery Installer"
thanks. also, how do install things using xrecovery

No not back to 1.6, just the first 2.1. When you have done that root it like usual and then flash the modified update that is pre-rooted.
Hope you have backups? When you get your phone right create a backup with xrecovery, it makes things so much easier.

Hey XperiaX10iUser,
I'm sure you know about the new update for X10a. Seeing that you've worked with Z, do you have any insider info on if/when/where there will be a rooted xRecovery method to update and also for your ROM? If you do one for X10a, would you consider using 1234-4836? It has voice search stock. Seeing that we aren't getting Froyo or Gingerbread, and google voice search is 2.2 in Market/app brain.

Try following the manual installation instructions. It worked for me.
- copy these 3 files into /system/bin using root explorer
may i know what is root explorer ??
i copy it SD card there.. right?? no need put inside to any folder, right ??

Did you try letting xRecovery install them for you first? Once xRecovery apk is installed on your phone go into your app drawer and open xRecovery and click install. Will get 3green check marks and done.
Install manually: You need to get Root Explorer from Market and set to R/W to get write permissions to copy jar files from sdcard and to destination folder.

unless you use flashtool and a prerooted version of .6 you are not going to have much joy... there is a way to flash all the files except system.sin (so you don't lose root xrecovery) then boot into xrecovery and install a prerooted inc xrecovery system.sin (as an update.zip)
I am sure someone has already released such a file on here by now (there were .24 versions floating around when that was released)
but the easiest way is just update with SEUS (you will lose root and xrecovery, JIT etc but you will keep your apps and other data) then just root it again and re install xrecovery and JIT.
if thats too hard (or if you can't use SEUS or pc companion) then just download the .6 firmware and use flashtool to flash it (you will need to root it and install xrecovery etc again.. and all your software (I suggest using SE back up and restore for all your contacts, sms's etc and titanium backup for your apps)

Hi everyone,
I still haven't gotten a response in xrecovery and flashtool threads for 4 days (Doom got his phone bricked and Crowds hasn't been online unfortunately) so I will post it here in hope that I will get a response a little bit faster:
I am *still* on 2.1. and I am planning on installing DoomLord's custom 2.3.3. stock rom with xrecovery installed and root. Then when I see how stock works I would install some real custom rom to get the best out of x10.
Now, since I can't install xrecovery on my x10 (at least I think so because it says in the thread that 2.3. android is required and I dont have it so I doubt that it will work if I manually install it?) I believe I have to use titanium backup (I've rooted my phone) to back everything up (my concern are the game data files but if I do a whole system backup those are backed up too right? at least it says so...) and then when I flash Doom's 2.3.3. stock rom I would restore everything with TB and back everything up with xrecovery, flash another custom rom and restore everything with xrecovery and use my phone normally,
Is this possible to do and is it a good idea?

you mean I can download the 0.3GBready xrecovery rar file and install it through flashtool?
EDIT: and would it also work if I install the xrecovery that comes with flashtool? no need to download 0.3? and then restore with the xrecovery that comes with the rom?

hi! I have x10 mini e10i and want to install custom rom even if its just running on 2.2 or 2.3.
My phone is 2.1-update 1, rooted, cwm installed but locked bootloader.
I can see some post that you can install custom rom on locked bootloader and stock kernel
Can someone make a "NEW" tutorial on how to install custom rom on locked bootloader on x10 mini e10i (not pro).
Thanks.

Please use SE tweaker tool to root and install CWM Recovery. SE Tweaker tool (also works on X10 mini): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
Then restart your phone and press the back button repeatedly to boot into CWM Recovery. Wipe data/factory reset then flash the ROM that you want.

You have to use a ROM that supports the stock kernel. So all you do is download a ROM zip and flash CWM Recovery. An example is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201116 It should work on X10 Mini BTW.

I finally installed cm6 on my phone. But i still have problem. It always restarting after the sony ericsson text (not the logo) but sometimes it can open 'til the homescreen but still it will shut down automatically.
I tried pc companion but when i try to connect my phone, its just restarting all over. I thought if I would install a custom rom, it will repair the phone.
What's the difference between flashing the phone via pc companion and installing custom rom via cwm recovery?

PC companion flashes stock ROM while CWM is used for flashing custom ROMs. I suggest you to use flashtool to flash a stock ROM

Flashing the 2.1 FTF with flashtool will reset your whole phone and it should fix your problem. If it doesn't, it means that you have a hardware problem.

You can use the 2.1.1.C.0.0 ROM. It was an update for the x10 mini pro in certain areas, but it will run on the x10 mini too, since there is no hardware specific stuff in the ROM itself. You will probably lose root and cwm though when you flash it.
I've got an 'undressed' 2.1.1.A.0.6 I made for myself in zip-format which includes root and cwm, but i took out all the google stuff, so there's no market in it.
If you want to know if your phone is ok, just wipe everything and install the 2.1.1.C.0.0.
