Usually, i use z4root to root my x10. Its very easy and fast
But since yesterday, I messed up my phone and all those apps gone in the menu, but the memory is still there
So i decided to restore with SEUS
i updated to a newer software
after that, z4root no longer working
SuperOneClick v1.5.5 also not working as well
Can anybody tell me any solution or ways to root the phone?
Thanks

You've updated to a new ROM which, until now, is unrootable. However, you can flash the previous ROM, re-root it and then flash zdzihu's pre-rooted ROM along with JiT.

My current X10i is rooted with R2BA023 and I am wondering if it is possible to update to R2VA026 without wiping all the apps and contacts. If I have to, what are the steps to update to 026. Do I have to use the original root methods all over again? Thanks, I'm still very new to android.
[So, after the experiments and discussion we have concluded the best way to update rooted firmware is to use SEUS with the update option "This option allows you to update your phone with all apps and user information untouched" Then download the one click root APK to root your device, make sure you also downloaded the market fix to ensure full services from the market.]

In SEUS you can update without losing your contacts or messages, I have done this at least once.
But I dont remember if the apps were left untouched, I have done to many reflashes since then.
Use SEUS to go to 026 and the the One Click Root to, well, root...
But please, make a backup first, Titanium seems to be useful for this.

thanks! I'm trying the SEUS update right now.
for those who are interested in doing the same thing. I found out you can make seus update only the firmware, keeping all the apps and personal information untouched. I updated from my rooted 023 to official 026 then used the 1click root .apk. Everything worked smooth like silk. In case if anyone is interested in doing the same thing my result was a perfect success. (btw, don't forget to use the market fix)
Just to be sure, I have rooted X10i R2BA023 so I can update it with normal SEUS update procedure without problems? And after update I just run 1click Root and restore with Titanium backup?

The answer would be yes.
Rooting is no problem, but as will89 said, the applications will be kept if you update your phone with SEUS and keeps the user data (there are 2 choices in SEUS).
Please BACKUP ! (at least your vital data, and before..)

Yes, my phone was originally a rooted 023 and I simply updated the firmware through SEUS, the update was fast and smooth. Once it was done, the firmware became the official 026 which then I used the 1 click root apk to complete rooting. Everything worked painlessly and all my contacts and apps remained untouched, though I would suggest you to still make a backup with titanium just in case like what MattiL said
Downloading right now update for xperia mini, I was not aware it was going to be released today, hope its goods anyways, keep you posted when it finishes
Heh really what version would this be? Hows the progress?
Sent using x10 mini pro
50% this are the times I wish I had a 2gigabit connection :/
done
Software version: 2.1-update1
dont know whats new, no intro as past update was shown on startup...
ahh.. phone unrooted, z4root not working stuck on running exploit screen.
How did you update?
Through wireless or through cable with a pc software like the pc companion?
Did the phone tell about the update when you searched for update?
Please I need to know!
pc companion... software on pc alerted of the update when I conected the phone, tried to search for an update from the phone but it told me it was up to date.
got to see about the availability of an update when I connected my mini to my PC and the PC Companion opened up.Went for the update that took such a long time to complete.I see virtually nothing new or beneficial in the few hours gone by.Oh-I lost the ability to root the phone,Z4 doesn't work anymore.
Didn't find any update not even with pc companion
:-/
same here .. there was no prompt when i plugged in the mini pro.
when i opened PC Companion, it says that I already up the latest update.
I'm usually pretty quick on the updates but this one looks like one to avoid until we can sort out the root issue..
I noticed they already have a solution for the Big X10 by installing a pre Rooted version of the update with xRecovery.. any solution like this available for the mini/pro yet?
All in good time I guess.. someone is probably making a Pre rooted, pre JIT'ed pre Gingerbread themed xRecovery zip file with the new firmware as I type this
fingers crossed..
I'm sorry....
Your stock album is now fast?
Because the first 2.1 stock album is very slow.....
I think that you can't extract for us... But....
Me too updated my mini and now unable to root. How to get back to previous one?
I could be mistaken, but i think x10flasher root method still works.
Downloaded 2.1-update1 (as it says on my phone) on the 24th, almost certain its the unrootable version u guys seem to be talking about, as z4root which worked for my 1.6, couldnt unroot this version(i also thought it was root patched)
Long story short, was messing around with it, tried the X10flasher 2.1 root method, hey presto rooted phone. So give it a shot, wont hurt, and if im right, still a viable root method for 2.1.

If im wrong, sorry for bringing hopes up.

It just looks like the Big X10flash GUI's "Root" option just installs Z4root onto the phone in which case it should be no different from just trying to use Z4root to root without the Flashtool... unless Bin4ry just has a different version of Z4root that works on the new firmware? (easy enough for someone having issues rooting with the new update to download his Flash tool and grab the Z4root version he uses out of it to try.. I don't hold high hopes tho, you can always use his flashtool to flash back to the old 2.1 and not update with SE until the root issue is sorted)
(also, I haven't updated my phone in weeks and it say's its running "2.1-update 1" so its possible you are still on the older rootable version, and it was just the version of Z4root you were using wasn't compatible with 2.1, lest hope I am wrong tho cause it would be great if this works!! )
Got the update. It killed my root and apparently my market? Any attempts to start Market crash immediately.
The new 2.1 update 1 is ver. 2.0.2.A.0.24
This is the one i got 24dec. in denmark, and this one wont root with z4root.
Still waithing for this to be fixed
is there any way to root it again?
I have an LG Optimus One ( LGP500 ) running 2.2 and I rooted it using the z4root tool, version 1.0. From what I saw, back then it didn't have an unroot option. In the meantime, I did an update using the LG Mobile Tool, and I think it updated my system to 2.2.2 .
I noticed that the newer versions of z4root have an unroot option, so I upgraded my z4root from 1.0 to 1.3, to try to unroot the phone ... but I only see the Temporary root and Permanent root options. I tried pressing the Permanent root and it seemed to do something, after which it returned me to my Home. From this, I'm drawing the conclusion that rerooting did not work. I am assuming z4root needs to root, so that the unroot option is available.
Is there anyway I could unroot my phone now?

since you have updated to 2.2.2 therfore z4root wont work on it .it requires version 2.2 to root u can go back to the 2.2 rom and then try z4root
Its already unrooted.

I recently updated my phone to 2.2 Froyo with Kies Mini on my PC. After updating I attempted to re-root with Z4ROOT and after a few random vibrations it closed out the the app... So I have two questions...
1) Can you still root a v2.2 Samsung Vibrant (U.S.) with Z4ROOT?
2) Also I have Clockworkmod on my phone, will that still work properly without root on my phone?
Most probably z4root won't work.
Use super one click.
cwm needs root.
Thanks. Also after updating, my phone seems to be lagging more then usual. Is this a result of updating with clockworkmod on the phone?
Means you flashed cwm after update? And now your phone seems to lag!
I don't know, I updated to froyo and also have cwm but I don't get any lag.
I don't think any custom recovery must cause a phone to lag.
You must try auto task killers, there are many in market, maybe they help.
just odin back to stock fixes almost everything.

No, Z4root does not work, I have tried it.
But yes, if you can get into cwm, you do not need root to flash anything with it. I have flashed files without root through cwm, so that is how I know.
Hi all i have rooted my Live using the Doomlords root kit by first flashing the .58 and then upgrading to .62 OTA.
Cool till now
My root was working good i installed many apps like titanium , quick boot and others also.
I was all good but few days back i moticed that when try to open the titanium i got stuck on asking for root rights and does not work.
I tried all the apps that reqiure root which used to work earlier now dont work.
The SU show notification for allowing the root acces I allow it but then nothing happens.
Wat could be the reason that i lost root.
Can anybody help.
I dont want reflash the .58.

The 0.62 can not be routed thereby advise you to replace the kernel by kernel 3.0 Rage, you will root perfectly, you can find it here in the area of ​​development.
