it very easy you have to turn your phone off...... and then turn it on... then start pressing the volume down key and back key like mad-MEN and x recovery would open up
VOILA....
nothing happens, i just tried out :-(

If u have unlocked your bootloader successfully then u can flash a kernel which will have recovery built into it. That will work 100%

Id say flash one of these kernels(fs version probably best) and it will change it bootlogo from SE splash if u unlocked loader successfully. If so, xrec will work when continually pressing back key whilst doomkernel logo is on (it's pretty cool if u not seen before). It guaranteed to be there pal. If u don't see the doomkernel logo (SE one still) then u failed to unlock your bootloader successfully..

i have unlocked BL, im using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17998666&postcount=12446 to flash CM 7.2, but i dont know wich files to download, do i need all this files? http://uploaded.to/folder/wz4rw6
As I say pal number one and number 4 u need pal (es209ra) flash the first one (fxp kernel) with flashtool and then boot into cwm recovery (this time it's keep pressing volume down when first bootsplash appears) then install custom zip from sd card and find it then install.

mate,
Its clearly posted that this theme is for Beta3 only.. if ur using 2.1, then your not using Beta3 because its for 2.2 froyo by Z.. U might want to check our what u flash in ur phone before doing it..
Niwei, if SEUS is not working, u might just have to FLASH ur phone again using the flasher made by B4nary.. find it in the other threads.. might help in ur reading.. Since ur already using xrecovery and ur phone is already rooted, try to flash beta3 un your phone then if u dont like 2.2, reflash using SEUS.. hope this helps..

There is also a version for 2.1 as stated in the title and in the thread, but if they've flashed the wrong one then obviously it wont work.

Partition? ext* system?
I think give xrec another shot. Keep pressing back key repeatedly when "SE" logo is displayed. Works for me everytime. Btw which ROM you on?
If that doesn't works then use flash tool 0.2.6 by bin4ry and use the guide by androxyde to re-install xRecovery.

Correct me if I am wrong. But doesnt Xrecovery have a Factory Reset option ?
Aside from that, I thought I had bricked my phone a week or so ago when Z released Beta 4. I could boot up to the SE Logo and go no further, couldnt even get into xrecovery. However, give this a shot, it worked for me to get it into flash mode so I could do a recovery on SEUS..
- Pop you battery out
- Connect USB Cord without batter in.
- Reinsert Batter while holding Back button
- The Screen should light up white for a split second but go back off.
- The Green Light at the top of the phone should stay on now
That should put you into Flash Mode for SEUS. The just do a recovery.
Yes, you will loose all of your information but hey, atleast you arn't buying another phone.
_____
Next time, read the post cleary and don't just think you know what your doing.
If the FW Version doesnt match you can lock your phone up pretty good.
If the Base Band doesn't match up, then you can mess up your Service and possibly put your phone into a repeating boot cycle.

Yes, xRecovery has a factory reset option to format data on your phone.

Like the other hundred topics about this, use seus and reflash to stock
This is only way?
no, if you make backup you can reflash it, otherwise u must use seus

You can either use:
1. SEUS and reflash the SE official 2.1
2. Use flashtool.
3. If you created a backup using xRecovery, you can restore it.
No backup
You cant brick the x10 just shut down the phone press and hold back button insert usb and.tada you're in flash mode. Your data will be lost but hey phone will work again

Search and download "android commander"
Install it...open..connect your phone to pc. If your phone is rooted...then you already know what is recovery.(Connecting boot to recovery...attach USB..mount data, system partitions.
Open android commander.exe...application manager..uninstall "root uninstaller" OK.
Restart phone.
This should unzfreez those apparently what you freezes.
It this don't help...make FW reinstall.

I flashed the osb and then it went into a bootloop. The sony screen turned on then went to xperia, then turned off and then restarted again. So then i decided to flash the backup nandroid. After i sucessfully restored the backup, the Sony screen turned on then turned off and restarts again and again. I cant get into clockworkmod anymore!! When the sony screen turns on, i hold the volume key and press too and nothing works. PLEASE HELP!!!
I am rooted, stock neo L 4.1.b.0.626, and no unlocked bootloader.
Would it work if i use flash tool to flash the stock rom or something? Please help! ALSO i might have usb debugging checked off im pretty sure
