Hi everyone
I know this site for months and I'm actively looking for rooting and adding a ROM on my X10. But I'm not english (I'm french) so I don't understand all the things on this site, and as far as I know, if something goes wrong, my X10i can be blocked.
So I'm asking for somebody who could lend me a hand (I'm not sure about the expression ) to have root access on my phone, and by the way if it's possible, install a rom (Android 2.2 or 2.3 and stable if possible) on it.
By the way, I'm on 2.1-update1 (dualtouch I suppose) my Baseband version is 2.1.54.
Thank you in advance

Here is a tool that will help you root and do everything for fixing the phone in case you mess up.
Flashtool:

Guide to Flashtool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507#post10879507
If you have questions, feel free to keep asking.
Already have a question ^^
In the Flashtool Guide for n00bies, there is that point I suppose I have to follow :
1. ROOT ACCESS
To gain root acces it`s quite easy. Just have to do this:
1. On your phone check "debbuging mode" on Setting > Applications > Development
2. Plug you USB cable
3. Open your flashtool and click on Root box
4. Wait a few seconds and your phone will rebbot
5. Voilà
When I open flashtool, I can't press on the "Root" box. The only one activated is the "Flash" box. I unchecked and checked again the debugging mode. Did I miss something between point 2 and 3 ?
Oh and by the way, for the How To For Noobies, do I have to follow all the points one by one ? Or can I pass all, and immediately go on the "how to root and more ..." point (5th post) ?

Now I'm asking you, which ROMs can I install on my X10 ? Because I've seen a lot of them on Unlockr but most of them was themes instead of real Android ROMs. And I saw CyanogenMod for X10 but I'm not sure I can install it, because I have a 54 baseband ...
What should I take ?

And then when you are done, read it 2 more times.
Then go through rooting and loading xRecovery or whatever else you want to do.

It's okay I did it myself. And ... IT-IS-DAMN-GREAT !
Thank you Hemal for your rom
I'll tell you the informations anyways, we never know ... so, Baseband 2.1.54, Kernel 2.6.29, and Android Version 2.2.3 now thanks to Hemal, Achotjan, and others that helped me ^^
By the way, I've got a question, is it possible to have a dualboot or something like this, like Windows and Linux on the computer ?
If you have xRecovery installed you can boot into xRecovery mode....then from there, do a restore or backup.....or load other ROMs.
You could have several different ROMs.
For months I kept the stock ROM, eventually I just removed it and installed another ROM.

Beau420, that's great, how can I do to install another rom ?
Hemal, you said CyanogenMod always has problems with the camera, but the link you gave me is a derivative of CyanogenMod, remixed by Achotjan with the arc theme, so I have camera problems too. But it works, and that's enough ^^

CM6 IS MOST FROYO ROMS 2.2 AND CM7 IS MOST GINGERBREAD 2.3
CUSTOM ROMS WITH CM7 GINGERBREAD STILL NOBODY SOLVE THE CAMERA ISSUE... ONLY TRIP IS THE ONE WHO SOLVE IT ON HIS ROM CALLED (MiUI "Iris" 0.9.5 Gingerbread!)
ACHOTJAN ROM IS CM6 FROYO 2.2.3 CAMERA SOLVED AND WORKING GRATE....
Achotjan ROM THERE IS NO CAMERA ISSUE...
YOU WANT TO INSTALL ANOTHER ROM....
THE LINKS I GAVE U THOSE R THE BEST ROM UNDER 2.2... IN EVERY LINK THERE HAVE INSTALL GUIDE ....
IN SHORT I TELL U..
01.DOWNLOAD THE ROM
02.GOTO XRECOVERY
03.IN RCVRY- Do a factory reset
Wipe Cache Partition
Wipe Dalvick cache
Wipe Battery stat
04. INSTALL COUSTOM ZIP
05.REBOOT
dats all
but AS U KNW INSTALLING ACHOTJAN ROM U NEED TO DO INSTALL UPDATE ZIP..... NOT INSTALL CUSTOM ZIP
GOT IT......
Yeah but if I do a factory reset, etc, I'll lose the old rom, so how to keep both in a dualboot, without deleting everything ?
When you create a backup of the original/stock ROM, copy the file or folder off the phone onto your computer.
I went through rooting and installing a ROM here -
http://androidforums.com/sony-ericsson-xperia-x10/371128-xrecovery-wont-install.html
I hate to post from another site, but here is what I did:
Alright....I'm going through the steps again to update my phone. Then I am gonna head to a buddies and do his.
Let's see if I can get this right.
I am going to load BlueSparks.
So I goto Blue Sparks and download the zip....unzip the BlueSparks zip and then put it in a folder on the sdcard in /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/Blue_Sparks written exactly like that (or it will give a md5 mismatch)
unzip the contents there (the .img file and stuff)
I then download and install the [TOOL] [UPDATE 22/03/2011] Flashtool BETA version 0.2.9.1 - xda-developers . I run it....click root and flash the phone with Baseband 2.1.67
Then I restart the phone. I make sure debugging is checked and Unknown Sources are checked. I use Adao File Manager and go to /sdcard/xRecovery I run xRecovery0.3.apk and I click Install
Then I open xRecovery from the app menu...I click Install and it brings up a message from SuperUser asking for permission. I click Allow.
That didn't do it.
I reset phone to factory default.
Started x10 Tool....plugged phone back in after reset.....turned debugging back on....and Unknown Sources. I clicked APK Installer and chose the xRecovery0.3.apk and installed that. Then I clicked Root again at the top.
Then I unplugged the phone and restarted.
I tried in x10 Tool again...clicked Ask Root Perm and it prompted me on the phone to access using SuperUser....now in x10 Tool I can click on xRecovery Then went under x10 Tool menu at the top and chose Reboot in xRecovery mode.
Finally in xRecovery. Factory Reset....yes
Wipe Cache Partition
Then under Advanced, Wiped Dalvik and Wiped Battery Stats.
Then in xRecovery I have to chose Restore and point to that folder....then it restores the image.
Reboot after the couple minutes it takes to install.
And that's it. Done....upgraded and ROMd.

installing a ftf is like reverting it to a stock stage, if your phone was working then, it should work now. are you sure you installed sk17 and not st17?
i cannot think of any other reason for this..

Try flashing Stock firmware 5 to 6 times. I read somewhere that some times touch drivers are lost which can only be restored by flashing stock again and again
You can also refer this thread
OMG!! i flashed it six times and the screen doesnt work )=
Maybe if i install a rom from another model like mini or live with walkman
I thought that because whent the problem starts i change my build prop to make run a wt19 rom! with the boot_official_port_mango kernel, maybe my phone thinks its another phone xD
Well, you can always restore your phone with the Sony app and start again.
Anyway, I don't think its a good idea to try to use a ROM made for another device.
I read in other post i have to flash it via seus

On PC Companion, start the "Support Zone" and you can restore from here. I think Sony dont support SEUS anymore, but you can find it in some forums or download sites.

But its is a fix for st15
lunatic2nuts :
-STEP 1: Install lastest firmware .62 for st15i. - use Flashtool
-STEP 2: Then via CM from zip install hybrom_v10. for minipro (sk17i)
-STEP 3: Then again flash lastest firmware .62 for st15i
And in future be carefull, and stay away from minipro ROMs
so i have to interchange i mean
-STEP 1: Install lastest firmware .62 for sk17i. - use Flashtool
-STEP 2: Then via CM from zip install hybrom_v10. for minipro (st15i)
-STEP 3: Then again flash lastest firmware .62 for st17i
someone can upload HYBROM v10
the files in the official post are private
Doesn't have to be Hybrom v10. It is a rare solution anyway...

Something like that happened to me with an X8 with unlocked bootloader and custom ROM.
Everything was fine for a month and then literally out of nowhere the phone s speaker stopped working! Just like that! No alarms,no ringing...nothing!
Before throwing away the phone,I gave it a shot and re flashed stock locked bootloader and ROM and everything started working again!
I then sold it and got a mini! :-D

Try to reflash firmware via wotan client
I recently bought a Xperia Sola . I unlocked it's bootloader and rooted it with a kernel with CWM recovery. After doing some installation of apps, i did a nandroid backup in CWM and when I rebooted, it stuck in boot loop (Sony Logo). :crying: . I tried to recover from earlier backups but all of those given me md5sum mismatch! error.
I am new to these things and I searched and read here and there. I found that, I have to flash a new ROM by going to CWM recovery. (I can still boot to the recovery). I searched for the Sony stock ROM but haven't find them. My Firmware was 6.0.B.1.184 and I think, it is Great Britain ROM. It has Bengali language though (also chinese input support).
I am a little bit confused about the ROM's also. All think, it contains the set of Applications. My android version was 2.3.7.
I would be glad if you can give me a link to stock 6.0.B.1.184 ROM. Also I don't want to upgrade my Android to IceCreamSandwitch (ICS probably). I have also know that, I have to use flashtool. Is there any alternative of flashtool? probably, CWM can do the job.
Note: I and my brother bought the same mobile set. Can I create a backup of his ROM and use it to flash?
I hope, I will receive a quick response.
Thanks for your helps.
#EDIT:
I have 3 question:
1. If I flash an ICS ROM, will it work with the existing Kernel which is I think GB kernel?
2. Does it matter if I flash a firmware/ROM with other region such as India (I'm in Bangladesh)? Also How could I verify which region My Sola is from?
3. I found a 184 ROM from xperiadev.wordpress.com/flashing/xperia-ftf-firmwares/ for my Sola, but it is from Central Europe? Will it create any problem?

trust me, i've been where you are and I know what you mean. what you could do is download the x8toolbox.final (link given below)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100
it's really useful for starters. It's very easy to follow commands in it as well. you can root, install recovery, add dual touch and more with easy to follow instructions. x8toolbox is the best!!! all the best and hope it works out for you.

I would recommend to try the older version of Flashtool (0.8.6)- you can find at the "Previous release" tab at the download site (http://androxyde.github.com). Don't forget to install the drivers from the \Flashtool\drivers folder.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100
it's really useful for starters. It's very easy to follow commands in it as well. you can root, install recovery, add dual touch and more with easy to follow instructions. x8toolbox is the best!!! all the best and hope it works out for you.

Finally | could install recovery throug X8Toolbox beta 4. I loaded CWM recovery, I wiped/reseted and flashed ROM MiniCM9-3.0.5 mimmi.Installation ok.
But, when I rebooted I only can see logo Sony Ericsson and the phone does nothing. I can only remove battery but again happens the same. I cannot entry recovery either. Maybe I push wrong buttons...
Please help, in other case I am witout hot dinner from my wife!
Thank you!

i guess you are new to this phone. you have a soft brick. install Sony PC companion and go to 'support' and repair your phone manually by following the instructions there. nothing to worry.
next,you cannot install minicm9 without unlocking bootloader and without unlocking boot loader, you can't flash custom kernel required for minicm. unlocking bootloader is a bit risky. remove your battery and look for the digits in the form of 11w29. if your phone has anything equal to or above 11w29 (like 11w30 or 11w44), you CANNOT unlock bootloader. you have to flash roms compatible with your custom kernel. so better stick with the stock kernel if you don't want to risk it. i suggest you could try kuyadroid or gingerxperia or froyobread or honeyfroyo
link of some custom roms here:

ROM flash
[Thank you 666shanx! Yes, it helped. Yes, I am new. It is my wife's phone which is fed up with the system (slow, small RAM menory), but she loves this hardware (red, small, hw keyboard). So I wanted to install other version of system to improve it.
I have 11w6. it means I can unlock bootloader. But, if could help me to flash the stock roms to improve the system, maybe I would do it like that.
Am I right?
Thank you!
Yes you could unlock bootloader. But you don't necessarily need to. Try flashing 'kuyadroid'. It installs on stock and DOESN'T NEED UNLOCK!
There are a lot of threads which teach you how to unlock. Search a bit for them. You need flashtool for it, which I guess you already have. Here's one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821750
But before all that just try kuyadroid. I bet you'll love it

?
what do you mean?
there is no miniCM roms for x10 (x10i); only for x10mini (e10/robyn), x10minipro (u20/mimmi) and x8/w8 (e15/shakira)
and each rom version is device specific and wont work on other devices.
I've already explained to him that minicm roms do not work. I've given him a link of roms which work on all the phones I mentioned...

Hi are you sure you're refering to coolancool's Xperia Ultimate HD 5.0.1?
As you can see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486064
He released his rom October 16, while you posted your problem Oct 15 and you indicated there that you have this problems for more than 3 days.
So I think you might be referring to the wrong rom..
Maybe what you installed is this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920207
Which is the same version BUT for Sony Xperia Arc & Xperia arc S & Sony Xperia Pro. Which is why I think it installed as Xperia Pro. It is clearly not for our LWWs.
That is why coolancool ported it for our xperia 2011 devices so it could work for our LWWs.
