xrecovery problem cant instal / not working

[Gurkenbeat]

hi,
trying to install xrecovery...
so downloaded the .apk to instal, not working (busybox newest version from market, super user rights also)
in this app are 3 parts of instalation, first and last work 2. gots a red circle and says that it cant be stated.
so i tried it manualy and copied the files via root explorer(sh, chargemon and xrecovery.tar , busybox file). rebootet pushed the back button several times nothing happend -.- just the normal booting.

try the reboot again
now press the back button or the sound button on the rigth side
you say "sh,xrecovery.tar,busybox,carmagon"
i don#t know a sh file
try to install xrecovery with the flashtool
it is here in xda you have to search for it

strange, worked with the flash tool, then updated to version 1.00 via xrecovery but after that not working :/

yep switched back,
somehow in the xrecovery menu it says something about x8 recovery tool. ans also i have to take a x8 multitouch file to work.

a lot of things from the x8 work on our device's
but MULITTOUCH would not work on our devices
chose oure dualtouch driver it's the best wich work

Need help installing xRecovery on XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello all,

Seems there isn't much help for newbies here :-(
I browsed all of the relevant parts of the site (I think):

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571
https://www.xda-developers.com/android/reboot-x10-into-xrecovery-from-os/#comments

And found these links outside xda-developers:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...2488-xrecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini.html
http://www.mobil-talk.de/android-fa...ecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini-nutzen.html

I used the German-language page (http://www.mobil-talk.de/android-fa...ecovery-nandroid-auf-dem-x10-mini-nutzen.html) to install the files, as I'm too stingy too shell out for the applications people here seem to need to install a system tool on their phones...

There are a few things that confuse me greatly, however:
1) What is the version of xRecover (or xrecover-x10mini) that we are supposed to be installing on our phones
2) What is the impact of busybox on the process (current version from the Market installs as /system/xbin/busybox, not as /system/bin/busybox as xRecovery seems to want; I know the chargemon script has /system/bin/busybox hardcoded)
3) What is the correct button to press at boot time of the phone to get into the xRecover application?

I installed several versions of the software I found through this site:
xRecovery-minipro-0.1.1-beta.tar.bz2
xrecovery_signed.apk

Neither of those seems to work on my XPERIA X10 Mini, and I have tried the back, volume up and volume down buttons, and I have tried to change the event from event0 to event1.

I am just trying to install the CyanogenMod 6 ROMs on my phone and am getting very disappointed with the entire process. If and when I do get it to work, I shall attempt to write my experiences down so others might have an easier time than I had.

Despite all the groveling, I do appreciate the community's efforts to make all of this work. I hope I can do my bit to document it better or to help iron out some inconsistencies.

Regards

looks like my problem
for me installing with the flash tool worked. (so just download flash tool and klick the xrecovery button =) )
after that i could copy the new custom rom files to the sd card and install them with xrecovery.
just push the back button all the time while booting repeatly when you got xrecovery succesful installed it should work
