Default X10i Mini (E10i) xRecovery .apk Installer

I was reading these threads and couldn't find an easy installer for xrecovery on the X10i Mini (E10i).

I looked at zoz33 installer for the X10 and changed the files to suit the E10i.
So now you can just install this app and run it and it will install xRecovery

Requirements:
1. Phone MUST be Rooted.
2. Busybox installed (Easiest way is to install "Titanium Backup" & click on the "Problems?" button.)

If you are having problems installing: Open Root explorer (Free version here) and set /system to R/W then run the installer again!


NOTE: this has only been tested on my X10i MINI (E10i) and I don't think it will work on other models (Different CHARGEMON versions?!?!).

Please comment so I know if this works or not! Thanks.

Just tried it on my X10min E10i, it installed the installer then got a force close when I ran the program & clicked install..

Ran flashtool & clicked root this morning as well, it said root should be available..

Question Muspelheim for remouny job?

Hi there!

Thx for this nice work (I hope - haven't tested it yet)!!!

In case /system needs r/w remount - can muspelheim be used?

Since I don't have Root Explorer (no visa card) - I'd prefer this option..

Thx in advance!

Keep it up

Housefly

EDIT: Muspelheim will not remount /system as r/w - see known issue on the muspelheim homepage (sorry, but i'm not allowed to link yet)

However - I found this little app from beansoft - which appears to do the trick - for free - twitter(dot)com(slash)beansoft
Hope this is helpful..

I'm off to try getting Xrecovery working on the x10 mini..

Thx

I tried searching for it, but nothing comes up I am still new to this loading different software etc..

but also on flashtool from bin4ry it has an option to install busybox, I did that & it said its installed.. But after doing the root, xrecovery & busybox the phone still looks & acts & has same features as normal, no extra icons etc...

xRecovery is a Hidden program - you access it by restarting the phone and AS SOON as the text "Sony Ericsson" appears - keep pushing the "<-" Back button. if it starts loading your boot animation then you either missed the time to push back or installation failed.

If you are not too sure on how to access or use xrecovery then please read a bit of info before you use it as it can stop your phone booting if used wrong!

You have to push it more than once, right after the "Sony Ericsson" appears.
Keep pushing it (1 or 2 times a second)
