THE FOLLOWING IS OLD INFO

any working ROM with recovery [best situation is to flash stock 2.1 se rom root it and install recovery] flashtool FTF bundle posted below Recovery image posted below

Stock SE 2.3.3 ROM prerooted (superuser files pre-installed, busybox pre-installed) FreeXperia recovery (slightly buggy but will be improved later)

download the ftf bundle & compressed recovery image from linnks below extract the contents of the recovery image to a folder on desktop u will get a folder with 4 files as shown below:

connect device to PC and mount sdcard copy that extrated folder to /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/ so final path to folder & files should look like: /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75/cache.img

/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75/data.img

/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75/nandroid.md5

/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75/system.img once copying is finished unmount sdcard and disconnect cable reboot into recovery and restore this backup AFTER RESTORE IS DONE DO NOT REBOOT wipe cache, data partitions directly remove battery and wait for few minutes (since we dont have power off in recovery this is crude way to do it) now start flashtool and connect X10 in flash mode and flash the ftf bundle provided below after flashing is complete just restart device and enjoy prerooted X10 SE 2.3.3 GB!!!

this has already been tested to work by me, erickwill & kxhawkins... but please test it and report back...

NO-KNOWN root exploit was used! all the info on how to do this is already there in the threads i had created earlier and of-course using some ingenuous thinking ... u can check my sig for the links to those threads...

... u can check my sig for the links to those threads... files prepared from following FTF file posted in flashtool thread:

the prerooted + recovery image might be slightly buggy (as i havent verified the permissions on all files yet) but till then u can enjoy prerooted SE 2.3.3 GB ROM

FIX

(thanks toHi guys since i am out right now i couldnt test it but kxhawkins has posted direct flash-able update.zip, instructions are there in his post... please test it out and report back...Included recovery (FreeXperia recovery) is slightly buggy and might give "unable to mount sdcard" problem if used multiple times in same recovery session..
