[Q] help with rooting xperia x10 mini 1.6 - General Questions and Answers

Hi XDA
i got an xperia x10i, droid 2.1 rooted. work perfect with help from xda forums.
my question is
a friend has a xperia x10 mini, droid 1.6 unrooted. i refered her to xda to get z4root, but it wont work on her phone. so i suggested she upgrades to firmware 2.1.
when she connects phone to pc, she can explore SD card, but when she tries to upgrade software, phone is instantly disconnected.
can anyone help with either a root alternate for z4root, or advise on the disconnection problem.
im on pal aswell, in XDA DEVELOPERS room. pal id is 5244607.
Wow, i know im asking alot, but i think all droid users should experience being rooted
Thank you
Maximus

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be many on XDA that own or develop for the Backflip. I work on one for my sister, and I can see why. However, people do own them and need support. I suggest trying the modmymobile forums- http://modmymobile.com/forums/406-motorola-backflip/
They seem to have a lot of support for the backflip there. I hate directing you away from XDA, but in the interest of helping you, that is the best place to go.
@silentheero is right, the best place to go is m3, they have j_r0dd and kz working on roms and a full forum for the backflip
A big help would be explaining to us the os version and method used to root your phone. I am familiar with super-1-click on htc and gingerbreak ok motorola, so if you used gingerbreak you should have options. Running it after the initial root process usually gives you the option to attempt to unroot the phone.

[Q] I have no idea how to update Xperia X10a from 1.6 to 2.1 HELP PLZ

Hi.
Let's start by making it clear that I have NO IDEA what to do.
All I want to do is update my Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 from android 1.6 to 2.1
I've searched around the forum for hours and read many tutorials on rooting, flashing, debranding, unlocking, custom ROMS, firmwares, generic global something, etc. It's like reading an other language. Sure, they say "step by step" or "noobs guide to ___", but that still doesn't help. Like I said, I have no idea what to do at all. Let's pretend I'm someone who hasn't even heard of updating android...
So far all I know is that I have an X10 from USA, ATT branded. The 2.1 update was "released during Q4", but apparently not for everyone. I tried doing the software update from the phone, but it won't work. That's what tells me that I have to do some sort of "hacking" to get 2.1.
If anyone has a guide (that will actually help me) or will tell me ACTUALLY step by step, that would be very much appreciated. If their is anything I left out about my phone, please ask and I'll try to answer. Sorry, I don't have any money to give you... But you can have a cookie
Have you tried the se update service? There are 3 ways to download updates, via the phone, through the pc companion and with the update service which you can download from the SE home.

Actually I forgot to mention that. Yes, I have tried both. All it ended up doing is reinstalling my phone with no apps.

[Q] xperia x10a rooting

Ok I need some sound advice here. I am currently an iphone user but I want to switch to android. It just so happens my younger brother has a x10a which he is willing to trade with me. We are both on the AT&T network. My questions are how easy is it to root the phone so to say? Also I have heard I need to load a sideloader? Ugh, iphone hacking was so much easier. HELP!!!!!
I think the flashtool is best tool, if you have pc.
One click root applications (z4root etc) don't work any longer.
find one click root app on xperia x10 forum android develop topics
Would recommend FlashTool, its a simple all in one solution. Just do a search for it on XDA forum.

[Q] Advice- ZTE Blade Latest owner wants updating advice :0

Hello XDA developers and Members
I am the latest owner of the 2010 phone ZTE Blade which looks to have a loyal following :good:
I have also made searches on youtube and notice that some people have ICS already installed on this particular phone however not fully stable.
So my Question is, how do you go abt unbricking your ZTE Blade?
Although I havent started any updating to my device from v2.1 to 2.3.5 or 4.0.3, I expect a bricking similar to my previous phone SONY XPERIA X8
Fortunately to unbrick the Sony X8 required use of the PC Companion supplied with the phone, which was fairly easy to use and restore stock firmware:laugh:
If you have experienced a bricking, how did you solve it? coz I cant use Android 2.1:crying:
Thank You
SC
