Does your system.prop have something like these lines.
persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb
sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb
Or
persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage
sys.usb.config=mass_storage
If not try to add those lines in your system.prop file and reboot and try again after. And if those lines are already there then i realy dont know
Maybe some USB related .rc files are not right but you cant edit those without de and recompiling it.
Hope its just the system.prop for you.

Your welcome and sorry it didnt work.
Hope you find a solution for it.
Btw can you connect to the computer and access usb from recovery? Hopefully it does work in that way. Because if it does the recovery.fstab is working/correct.
And only 1 thing I can think of then is maybe the vold.fstab in the /system/etc directory which should have these lines.
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc1
It's the last thing I can think off.

I appreciate your help.
Can you please tell more about accessing usb from recovery?
P.s I have only CWM working.

There should be something like "mounts and storage" somewhere in the menu and in there should be the "mount USB storage setting/switch for the mount and unmount hope it's the same at your recovery I use cwm but xrecovery should have similar options.

Okay so if you press unmount and then mount again that doesnt work?
Can you browse the sdcard content with a file browser apk or gallery on the phone if so i really don't know how to solve it.
And if you can't browse the sdcard from a file browser or the gallery app on your phone the only thing then is that maybe your sdcard got corrupted somehow.
Only way is too check sdcard is by using a sdcard adapter chip. Or a special USB with a slot for it and then insert it in a modern computer or laptop, with the special kinda slot is only for (the adapter.) Then to check if you can browse the content of it.
Or if you have another phone which uses the same sdcard type as the x10i too check if it works on that phone.
If that all not works maybe it needs a formatting but then you lose everything on it.
So beware of it.
(I had this issue one time a while ago when unplugging my phone from the computer and I couldnt browse my sdcard or mount it after. I needed to reformat it within cwm recovery to make it work again but lost everything on it.lucky I've made a backup of the content of my sdcard like maybe 4 days before it happened)
Hope someone else could help you more or solve it before you try to reformatting it, to preserve your contents ofcourse.

Hmmm...I press unmount and nothing happens, there is no mount option. I have other phone and SD card is working good and I can search it with root browser normally.

Thats weird i am sorry really don't know it then.
And did you tryed flashing new/other kernels and different roms.
Or restored a backup of any rom you used before and tryed too see if it works properly on them.
But make a backup first.
I will try that rom when I have my x10 back running with new battery. And see if it works at me. If so maybe the rom and kernel you downloaded got corrupted somehow probably when downloading it.
But i am not sure.

You could
1) download the ROM you wish to install to a PC
2) remove your SD Card from X10
3) put the SD Card on the PC
4) copy the ROM to SD Card and put the SD Card back on the X10
5) reboot in xRecovery and install your new ROM
hope it helps.

Thanks for reply.
I don't have xRecovery, I have CWM rec. Tryed to flash few ROM-s but unsucceful.

Hello I installed and tryed that rom.
I installed the normal rom TUG-SDE and provided kernel semcdebrandengine.ftf
I must say I had few issues aswell with USB first with flashing the kernel, but flashtool said something like install drivers from the drivers folder which is located at flashtools directory.
I used that program to install all drivers I need for the x10i.
And flashed kernel again and the rom with success.
And after that it worked properly also USB to PC connection.
