V1.2.0 works on Wolf's v7.1 rom running 3.52 custom kernel. I flashed the v3 zip and worked like a charm. Thanks again Doom. btw any suggestions on how to make a widget for this and where is the app? I can't find it for some reason.
Edit: Found the app. Can't believe I missed it. I don't know what possessed me to follow the old link but I ended up using the v3 zip and creating the shortcuts manually with gscript. That also works just to let everyone know. Then I found the v1.2.0 app which also works like a champ.

Installed on Ericks ewjet sony style 2.1 (released earlier today, very latest release). Device not detected as xperia at first but continued anyway selecting device as x10. I tried reboot into recovery but again just a normal reboot (I'm using latest Z Kernal, not altinitive version for random reboots). I uninstalled previous version and allowed SU permission twice.
Also reboot into fastboot was shown as an option, i believe this should be just for 2011 models.

If u can post the logcat it can be helpful...
Also if "reboot into fastboot mode" was shown then the universal reboot into recovery command was called which wont work on xperia 2010 lineup... uninstall app and install it again to get device selection screen back... be sure that u select Xperia X10 as ur device model...

solved:- Not your new build, poor eyes on my side, initial start up with model screen, i just selected with out looking. But with trips arc rom, it identifies it as an ARC. So once i selected to change it to X10 it worked.

Iv just tried this and it never seems to finish and reach the point where its supposted to finish. Just gets stuck on 'processing'. Iv tried several times and its creating a log.txt but is an empty file? Disconnecting usb and reconnecting after reboot after leaving for a good five mins doesnt help.
Just to be clear im doing this right cos you never know i might be being a idiot here...
1 Connect usb to phone and pc
2 open and run the runme
3 open widget/app
4 hit reboot to recovery
5 allow phone to reboot
6 runme should then say finished and then post the log.text
step 6 just isnt happening here for me. running ericks ewjet 2.1 'sony style' with latest Z kernal inculded in the rom and kernal tweak pckage by erick using a crappy windows xp sp3 pc. Real sorry doom, really was hoping to get this file for you now iv actually had a few mins to try :-(

45Hey guys I was able to get a script (now an APP) together to reboot into recovery (xRecovery / FreeXperia Recovery) from within the OS.
firstly i would like to thank Bin4ry & Androxyde for the FlashTool and the option to "reboot into xrecovery from flashtool" as this mod/script is based on that..
and tremendouz and wiedz for inspiration...
DO NOT TRY THIS IF U USE DATA2SD... THIS CANNOT WORK, FOR NOW, ALONG WITH DATA2SD...
new features include:
- cleaner layout
- new UI
- working themes!
- and u will be entitled to future upgrades
Screenshots:
On X10:
On Xperia 2011 / Other Androids:
if u like the app please buy the paid app to support our work
P.S.: Older versions are available in 2nd post and will be kept for XDA users...
FOR OLDER VERSIONS (which will be kept FREE) please refer to this thread:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1085896
<OLD FILES | For Reference ONLY>14[Universal] for ALL ROMs / ALL Xperia Android devices with any Recovery
[*] THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL [*]
This should work on ALL ROMs and ALL Xperia Android devices (X10, X8, X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro) and ANY RECOVERY (xRecovery / FreeXperia)
PLEASE MAKE A FULL XRECOVERY/NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE TRYING ANY SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS LIKE THIS
Additionally please make certain that u can use flashtool to flash a stock FW incase u run into any problems and that the device is fairly charged >50% battery before trying this.
the attached file is an update.zip flashable thru xRecovery/Recovery
this contains GScript Lite, and it gets installed as a system app... so if u
already have it installed, i recommend u uninstall it before flashing this...
it contains 3 scripts:
- add-on_installer.sh
- add-on_uninstaller.sh
- reboot_recovery.sh
they will be put on the /sdcard/gscript/ folder automatically so that gscript lite can immediately find it...
Installation Steps:
[1] flash update.zip thru xRecovery/Recovery
[2] to install add-on: just launch the app and click on "Load File" and select add-on_installer.sh all the contents will load automatically... u need to make sure that the option "Need SU?" is checked (ticked)... now save and run this script ONLY ONCE... there might be a popup for SU permissions, select "Allow"... u will see the outputs of each step in the installation process...
[3] to use the reboot option/script: just launch the app and click on "Load File" and select reboot_recovery.sh all the contents will load automatically... u need to make sure that the option "Need SU?" is checked (ticked)... now save... u can now create a shortcut on the homescreen to GScipt Lite and select the reboot_recovery script... if u try running the script a popup for SU permissions might come up, this will only come the first time its run, select "Allow" and then ur device will reboot into recovery...
thats it! now whenever u want to reboot into recovery just launch the shortcut!!!
To Uninstall Add-on:
just launch the app and click on "Load File" and select add-on_uninstaller.sh all the contents will load automatically... u need to make sure that the option "Need SU?" is checked (ticked)... now save and run this script ONLY ONCE... there might be a popup for SU permissions, select "Allow"... u will see the outputs of each step in the installation process...
if u have any problems please put up a post here
What this script does? [for the enthusiastic types ]
- It remounts system & data partition for modification
- It backs up the current chargemon file to /system/bin/chargemon.ori
- Works on a temporary copy of chargemon file @ /data/local/tmp/chargemon.tmp
- Then it inserts the modifications into the /data/local/tmp/chargemon.tmp file for checking reboot file and some more modifications
- Once all modifications are done it copies the /data/local/tmp/chargemon.tmp file back to /system/bin/chargemon
- The backup chargemon file is stored @ /system/bin/chargemon.ori for the uninstaller script
- The uninstaller script deletes /system/bin/chargemon file and renames /system/bin/chargemon.ori to /system/bin/chargemon
[APP | WIDGET] >>> xCharge - SE Reboot Options for Xperia <<<
use the latest file v3: reboot_into_rec_univ_xperia_v3.zip3[2.2] ROMs based on FreeX10-beta4
PLEASE MAKE A FULL XRECOVERY/NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE TRYING ANY SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS LIKE THIS
Additionally please make certain that u can use flashtool to flash a stock FW incase u run into any problems and that the device is fairly charged >50% battery before trying this.
use the attached file ONLY if the existing chargemon file in /system/bin/ is as follows:
Code:#!/system/bin/busybox sh cat /dev/input/event2 > /dev/keycheck& sleep 3 kill -9 $! if [ -s /dev/keycheck ] then # remount rootfs rw mount -o remount,rw rootfs / # Umount MTDs umount -l /data umount -l /cache # Extract recovery cd / rm -r /sbin rm -f etc tar -xf /system/bin/xrecovery.tar # Umount system umount -l /system chroot / /init fi /system/bin/charger # remount rw mount -o remount,rw rootfs / cd / rm -r /sdcard rm init* rm logo.rle rm default.prop tar -xf /system/bin/ramdisk.tar # zdzihu: hack-fix if [ -e /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db ]; then /system/bin/chroot / /init exit fi chroot / /init
[Thank you JimmyX10 for helping out with testing this]
the attached file is an update.zip flashable thru xrec
also this contains the modded chargemon file based on freex10-beta4... i yet have to incorporate the suggestions by Androxyde
this contains GScript Lite, and it gets installed as a system app... so if u already have it installed, i recommend u uninstall it before flashing this...
also this file contains the required reboot_xrecovery.sh script... it will be put on the /sdcard/gscript/ folder automatically so that gscript lite can immediately find it... once u reboot back into system after flashing just launch the app and click on "Load File" and select reboot_xrecovery.sh all the contents will load automatically...
* some custom roms are not permitting reboot command if SU rights are not there... u need to make sure that the option "Need SU?" is checked (ticked) else the device wont be able to reboot from the script... *
u can now create a shortcut on the homescreen to GScipt Lite and select the reboot into xrecovery script.
if u try running the script a popup for SU permissions might come up, this will only come the first time its run, select "Allow" and then ur device will reboot into xrecovery...
thats it! now whenever u want to reboot into xrecovery just launch the shortcut!!!
if u are using a different 2.2 rom and/or the chargemon file is different than the one shown here please post it here along with the details of the rom u using and i will try n put up a compatible version for u..3And the app is released to market!!!
we are finally ready with a new version and its directly released to market!!!
get it here:
xCharge Reboot Options [a.k.a. Xperia Reboot Options]
its a paid app for 2$
new features include:
- cleaner layout
- new UI
- working themes!
- and u will be entitled to future upgrades

if u like the app please buy the paid app to support our work
P.S.: the older versions v1.3.0 & below will NOT be removed! they will still be kept available for XDA users for free2sweet, any idea if its going to be able to be completely universal or need radio buttons or something to choose various scenarios ? something a little like in the attached pic.
should be a sweet/handy app when its ready.
I'm looking forward to it
ya we are trying to make it universal (for all Xperia, android devices which use the boothijack file /system/bin/chargemon)
right now we are calling it "SE Xperia Reboot Options" (may change)
as for various scenarios we have the following options:
- Device
- Recovery
- Custom BootKit
it will have both an app drawer application as well as a widget...
we are also thinking of adding an option to install/uninstall the chargemon add-on (i.e. the app will itself modify the chargemon file, so the user need not use any other update.zips)
