Man, follow all steps, there's no secret. When u did the last flash, do you know what went wrong?

No... It showed some "busybox" stuff, "pushing" some files.... Then asked me to reboot and upgrade kernel. On flashing n clicking upgrade... My fone became dead!

I assume you have usb debugging mode on..
And have your phone unlocked so you see the homescreen and wait for "Watch now your device. Select the backup named RootMe and restore it!"
After you have done that it should be good to go..

If you're on 6.1.1.B.1.54, you'll have to Flash 6.1.1.B.1.10 kernel then Root using Bin4ry, then Flash 6.1.1.B.1.154 kernel. Voila, your device is Rooted.

As far as I understand, you only need a rooted Phone with stock kernel and xrecovery installed. In the x10 mini pro section, there is the same ROM, so I guess that is a port fo x10 mini. It seems as if you dont have to unlock your bootloader to use it. Why dont you just try flashing it via xrecovery?
Good luck!
Please press the THANKS button if I helped
I'll do my best. Thanks for the advice, and thanks for the 'Good luck'

Removing unwanted apps should not cause any problems unless you removed some vital system app. Only a logcat can give the real reason if the force close.

SuperSU and superuser are different. Check the attached pic.

Bro I tried installing superSU bt when supersu demands root access from superuser, superuser activity of granting is forced close (and that is the problem).
Superuser,at the moment, in my phone is the sole authority to grant root access to other apps (like font installer, rom toolbox, rom manager etc) and the problem starts from there i.e. Granting root access...
Please help me for the sake of God...

So on which firmware version are you and which method did you use to root?
