    [ Requirements ]

    1. any working ROM with recovery
      [best situation is to flash stock 2.1 se rom root it and install recovery using latest flashtool]
    2. flashtool
    3. FTF bundle posted below
    4. Recovery image posted below


    [ Features ]

    1. Stock SE 2.3.3 ROM
    2. prerooted (superuser files pre-installed, busybox pre-installed)
    3. xRecovery-0.3 (GBready) recovery (all known issues related to recovery are fixed in this version)


    [ Important Links Before u Begin ]

    1. Flashtool
    2. [FLASHTOOL GUIDE] HOW TO for n00bies


    [ How To ]

    *FOLLOW THE STEPS PRECISELY ELSE U WILL GET STUCK*

    1. download the ftf bundle & compressed recovery image from linnks below
    2. extract the contents of the recovery image to a folder on desktop
    3. u will get a folder with 4 files as shown below:
      folderconents2.jpg
    4. connect device to PC and mount sdcard
    5. copy that extrated folder to /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/
    6. so final path to folder & files should look like:
      • /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/cache.img
      • /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/data.img
      • /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/nandroid.md5
      • /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/system.img
    7. once copying is finished unmount sdcard and disconnect cable
    8. reboot into recovery and restore this backup
    9. AFTER RESTORE IS DONE DO NOT REBOOT
    10. directly remove battery and wait for few minutes (since we dont have power off in recovery this is crude way to do it)
    11. now start flashtool and connect X10 in flash mode and flash the ftf bundle provided below
    12. after flashing is complete just restart device and enjoy prerooted X10 SE 2.3.3 GB!!!

    Included recovery (FreeXperia recovery) is slightly buggy and might give "unable to mount sdcard" problem if used multiple times in same recovery session.. <<< FIX >>>: install the latest fixed xRecovery posted by zdzihu here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=859571

    FT/xRec Flashable GB Update

    Here we go guys,

    1. Download the Gingerbread zip here: X10i_Official_GB_Rooted_006.zip
    2. Put it on your SD Card, boot into recovery, and flash it.
    4. DO NOT REBOOT FROM RECOVERY, pull your battery out
    5. Fire up FlashTool and flash this: X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_Baseband and Kernel Update.ftf
    6. Turn your rooted, zipaligned, and busyboxed Gingerbread X10 on.

    NOTICE: I've only done very preliminary testing on this, and don't know what bugs you'll run into, but I can say that the permissions are all set (manually AND by script at install-time) and it's much smoother than the original release.

    Have fun
