PLEASE help to Flash my SE X10i mini pro from 1.6 to higher version!

After reading about 3-4 days this forum...my head is totaly in chaos.
I'm owner of u20i mini pro
Simply I do not understand many things here..
First of all I have v1.6 and what I want is to upgrade android version to use Skype and Trillian (IM client). So my first question is what is the most stabile firmware for my phone?Is there any newer versin than link in next sentence?
I try with this post:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895370
The problem is that the link for Flashtool version for that firmware is broken. So just new version can find v0.28.
I downloaded system.zip file and extract firware folder to Flashtool folder. But when I click on flash and browse to firmware folder there is nothing! So what can I do?
What does it meant to decrypt files? Do I need to decrypt that downloaded files from system.zip folder (from folder firware)???
Is it enough to make just a "Bundle Creation" from advanced menu in FlashTool v0.28 and then continue from step 6 with ftf extensions?
Notice: My phone is rooted and I have a Xrecovery instaled and have a USB drivers for flashing.
My phone is now simunlocked so I can use every sim card. Is there any danger that after I flash my phone with newer android that it wil be simlocked? Sorry for stupid question..but I must to know.
So if someone want to help me I will be thankful.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes you can, but don't do it manually. You deleted some system folders, instead of just overwriting the necessary files in those folders.
Put this file on your sd-card (direct download, credits to nobodyAtall)
Use flashtool:
Root your phone
Install xRecovery
Reboot into xRecovery
Choose 'Install zip from sd-card' and flash the above zip.
You'll have CWM after a reboot
Or, root your x10 mini (flashtool does an excellent job on this) and then use RecoverX for an easy installation of CWM...
