I can't flash my X10, can't unlock the bootloader and upgrade new rom, kernel.

I have the xrecovery ... I saved everything, I still have the old 2.1 saved ... of course all my data are obsolete on that version, so it would be better to upgrade the existing 2.3.3 with the 2.6.29.6 EWJET xkernel.

I copied here the "results".

Rooted X10i
Bootloader locked according to S1 Tool:

I started the flashtool:

At this point the green led disappeared and the charging sign appeared... nothing happens ... I pushed the power button (still connected)

Probably it's very clear to somebody what did I wrong ...

Another problem: the Flasher does not contain the Bootloader unlocking ... Ive read, that it should be under Plugins ... but that is empty for me.

(I started with the latest Flasher, than I red somewhere to try also with the previous version ... the same everything)

Could You explain?

Thanks for the help!

try using SEUS to get back to the official 2.3.3FW.. then use the flashtool to root it. flashtool also has an option to install the recovery so u dont have to do it manually. its the + button.. also u can unlock the bootloader by clicking on "plugins" on the menu bar once u have successfully rooted and have a working recovery..
