Just finished rooting.
Completely easy no hassles no errors. Everything that was brand related gone. All sony ericson apps but one gone. Home button defaulted to Zeam. Also an interesting note I had already upgraded my phone to latest firmware and because of this I did not loose any data. I ended up with a rooted phone with all my installed apps and data in tact.

Hi, please can you explain what rooting your phone means? I have an x10 if that helps. I've looked around and can't seem to understand it. I am currently running the official 2.1 update from SE, but I'm using Zeam too (which is far better i think).
You also said you still had all yours apps and I really don't want to lose all mine it's such a nuisance!
Any help you can give will be appreciated. Thank you!

Brilliant thing this program, lovely !!

Just a minor problem: Tried it on Win XP and it complaned that it would not work with .NET framework somehow (i updated it ,, no change)
So i just ran it in my Win 7 laptop and voila..no problems.
It was done on Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini pro (android 2.1-update)

I have no idea what you are trying to do.

Start a new thread and ask your question.

This guide is really old.

The other guide is a lot better....I should probably make it a sticky thread and keep it at the top.

Try another USB port.

I opened up my registry but could not find the file STRING or anything to do with usb part on it do i have to put phone on my computer 1st with usb with the sony program because i have just got the phone so not got the sony update program on computer & not used usb cable on computer yet will this make difference. Don't want the phone to update because then might make it harder to root ?

Thanks for any help
