Hi,
I'd like to think i'm quite experienced in the rooting and modding scene, however that was until yesterday, when I installed a CM7 Mini rom, and the phone is now stuck in the Sony Ericsson screen.
I installed the rom but then flashed gapps (Google Apps). I didn't reboot the phone between the installations and the phone is now stuck on the Sony Ericsson splash screen.
Normally I would remove the battery and put the phone into recovery, however I'm unable to do that as it's got a built in battery.
I've tried everything to get this phone working but to no avail. It doesn't help that my laptop i'm using is a 64bit machine, I do have access to a 32bit computer too.
I've tried repairing it with Sony PC Companion, SeUS, won't even install because it needs something like Macromedia, I've also tried flashtool.
In a nutshell i'm unable to put the phone into recovery.
Has anybody got ideas how I can revive my SE X10 Mini?
I've now successfully restored it.
How did u restored it? cause I´m having kinda the same problem with my SE mini pro x10
U r on wrong part of forum guys, this is xperia x10 section, not mini and mini pro..

Hi Peeps,
I'm having problems getting xRecovery installed on my phone so that I can use custom ROMs. So far the tutorials I've used on XDA have been unsuccessful in installing xRecovery.
Does anyone have a more simplified/reliable tutorial that I can follow. Thanks in advance!

its not important if .24 or .06 (;
1. just Activate Debugging in Settings and
2. make sure that u have "Sony Ericsson PC Companion" installed for Debugging drivers.. otherwise SuperOneClick doesnt work
If u Follow these Steps it will work 100%

PS: pls reply if it works..
hi there, i was wondering if anyone could help me. i have a mac and my x10 mini is bricked. my question is does anybody know of a way of factory resetting the phone on a mac. as it is bricked, i can't boot into xrecovery to restore a backup i have made.
Install SEUS! Download it from sony ericsson's website, its called update service! I'm sure its available for mac too!
no, seus is not aviable for mac/linux. the only way to update is via windows. if you wanna do it on your mac you need to install oracle virtualbox (vmware is NOT working), then install an an virtual windows (xp is enough mabye you find via torrent) and then install seus in this virtual windows. i know this is a lot of work but the only way (thanks to se ). for me takes 4 hours just to update my damn phone..
i'm a noob on xda, so i can't post links but search in google for "x10 mini update linux munz.li". if you have a mac you just need to look at the part with the usb-filters..
good luck..
Ok thanks anyway I used my mates pc.
Whilst im here, does anybody know how to map the buttons in a custom rom? I am trying to port the rom of the sony ericsson w8. The main thing that doesn't work is the buttons :-(

Hi everyone. I've got this problem which i can't solve (nor find the solution on the net).
I have a rooted mini pro with stock 2.3.3. I've unlocked bootloader through sony ericsson website and verificated my IMEI number there. Then i've rooted my mini pro - and kept stock 2.3.3.
The 2.3.4 update is out now (PC Companion says that too), but windows keeps failing to install the MTP USB drivers when i try to connect in this mode according to guide in PC Companion. I gave up trying to update firmware this way after lots of attempts.
So i decided to try update by SEUS. When i connected in recovery mode, SEUS said that software in my device was changed and thus cannot be updated. I really don't know what to do now. I'm afraid that SE blocked updates to my IMEI number as i unlocked the bootloader, but i'm just guessing.
The question is:
Does someone know how to update my mini pro to stock 2.3.4? Is there any way to lock bootloader back as it was and get SE to know that i'm a nice guy again?
Thank you very very much for any help! I'm starting to be desperate about this.

hello! i just rooted my xperia x10 mini pro, and wanted to get mini cm 9, but i don't think i can bootload it.. the "stick in the charger" is broken, so my phone can't charge correctly in the pc, how can i bootload without getting bricked? this isn't a possible method for me, right?
