yep. just removed edge and peggle and gtalk roadsync wiseplot manual and support timescape
adb shell
su
rm /system/app/appname.apk
You might want to get a full list first...
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
list
then use rm -r packagename.apk
Keep in mind that some .apk's are critical for normal function of the phone, be careful when you remove them.
Isn't it /dev/block/mtdblock0 on the mini?
Anyway just check by issuing this command without quotations "cat /proc/mounts"
I have tried with the commands listed in my previous post and can say that it is working without any problems. (at least for me
)
But yeah you are right about the "cat /proc/mounts", shows up as mtdblock0 for system, but seems like both works.
Many thanks to Kabaldan for rooting.
Will rooting by this method keep everything intact or will erase all my Apps/ contacts / mails/ messages etc ?

Thank you so much kabaldan. It's done on my X10 mini E10i with 1.1.A.0.8 firmware (computer on win 7 64bits), and it works great. The "housework" is done too (with titanium backup), so really thanks again.

Can someone confirm that this exploit still works after the official SE update released yesterday (from 1.0.A.1.38)?
Can some one point down the safety/precautions steps too, like how to backup, how to restore and how to ensure that it is converted back to original version.
Also what could be common point of failures.

3Rooting using the Exploid method:
http://android.doshaska.net/x10miniroot
Guide:
This hack http://c-skills.blogspot.com/2010/07/android-trickery.html is almost universal.
I've compiled and tested a version for X10 mini.
Download: exploid_x10mini.zip
- download and extract the archive...
You will need ADB from Android SDK and USB drivers for X10 mini (part of Sony Ericsson PC Companion).
Enable USB debugging on the phone in Settings>Applications>Development and connect the phone to PC via USB.
Add the Power Control widget to your active widgets on the phone, so you can quickly turn off and on the wi-fi function.
From the command line (on windows it's cmd.exe):
cd c:\exploid_x10mini (or another folder where you've extracted the files from exploid_x10mini.zip)
adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb push exploid /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid
adb push busybox /sqlite_stmt_journals/busybox
adb shell
cd sqlite_stmt_journals
chmod 755 exploid
chmod 755 busybox
Immediately after the next command, you will need to disable and enable the wi-fi using the power widget on the phone:
./exploid
then run:
rootshell
enter password rootnow
prompt will change to # - now we have root
./busybox cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/
./busybox cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/
./busybox cp busybox /system/bin/
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
rm /system/bin/rootshell
exit - out of rootshell
exit - out of adb shell
Verification:
When you run the abd shell again and issue su command, the Superuser.apk will run on the phone and will ask whether to allow the root permissions...
Mod edit: I felt it was better to have the guide her for new users. Or people not trusting external links.1Yes, but we must have a rooted phone. If we can't root we can't install this firmware, so we stay in the same step, unrooted.
If thats your problem then try the Flash version 2.1 provided by Bin4ry....which doesn't require any root access before update and even you got latest version of firmware+root(Automatic)............I think that i'll be better option for you!!!!!

In order to use the flasher just try these steps:
1)Download SEUS and Pc Companion and connect the phone with them at least once (just connect)
2)Make sure you have the latest java installed on your pc.
3)Download the flasher from Bin4ry (Just make sure you've downloaded the mini and not the mini pro edition).
4)Download from the same thread a Generic 2.0.A.0.504 FW and put the folder with the .sin files inside the flashtool's directory.
5)Run the flashtool, press flash and then choose the name of the folder, where the .sin files are in.
6)While the phone is off, keep the back button pressed and connect on usb until the green light is on.1I have Xperia X10 mini
version 2.0.2.A.0.24
