Cant get ROOT for X10 - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi
i have updated my xperia to latest firmware
and now i tried like 4 different root apps: z4root, super1click 1.5.5, super1click 1.6.3, special versions for xperia mini and new update and ALL apps say: rooted, su installed, busybox installed.
now i've got superuser icon in my apps but i cant get titanium backup work, su binary updated and busybox installed because all they say: no root acquired

This might sound daft, but have you rebooted your phone after u rooted it?

Busy Box is something that you install on your Droid to give you some additional handy LINUX / UNIX based commands. You need Busy Box installed because some commands are not available to you and you made need them for some root level tasks.
As for downloading it should be available in market!!

[Q] Newbie with SE Xperia X10 mini pro

Hi everyone,
I recently receive my new SE X10 mini pro from Vodafone, and I already updated it using PC Companion!
Model: U20i
Version: 2.1-update1
Kernel: 2.6.29
Compilation: 2.0.A.0.504
And now, How can I root him?
I read that we can use z4root and found it in Market, but I did not found that program.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks
It seems that google have removed it from the market. You can find it here instead:

I tried to root just about an hour ago with Z4Mod... it seemed like it worked, superuser installed.... but when I tried to download to titanium backup to make sure busybox was installed it said I did not have root.
Verified this by typing su in terminal emulator as well.
What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!
Also, are there no custom ROMs for this phone?
How can I make it faster?
Is there support for apps 2 SD?
No custom roms yet.
Apps 2 SD is supported.

Z4Mod says the phone is rooted... superuser installs.
However, I do not have root. Titianium Backup states so, and terminal emulater su does not return a #.
Anything i need to do to make this Z4Mod root my mini pro?

I fixed that by enabling USB debugging in the settingss from the x10. maybe it helps for you too.
Try downloading busybox from titanium backup (click "Problems?")
Sure! I have just rooted using it. Type z4root in the search box here in the forum. Someone put a link to the app. You download it to your computer and then to your phone. Install it and it is ready to root a**!

[Q] Rooted Thunderbolt SU problem

Hey Guys,
Got my Thunderbolt rooted and s-off. Running decent... But I have a few problems with bugs/wondering if there were any known fixes...
1: CWM is having problems... as in picky about when it wants to reboot... etc... should I just wait for a new flash?
2: I liked usinig Andguard on my droid... but it seems after rooting/s-off my thunderbolt and installing Superuser/CWM, I cannot use Andguard...It states it does not have SU permission and to check root or Busybox... help?
Best!
Thanks to the DEVs working hard on this!
Are other apps that require root working for you? Like maybe Titanium Backup, or Root Explorer? Heck, there's a free app called Root Checker you can download to test.
It sounds to me like you have issues with your su, superuser installation. Did you download and install SuperUser.apk from the Market? Does it give you a pop-up asking permission when you run your app? If you open SuperUser app, is the app listed as having permission allowed?
If all of that is yes, then try installing a new version of busybox. There's a busybox installer app on the Market, or you can use Titanium Backups "Problems?" button to download a copy.
Let me know if that helps out.

[Q] Root Explorer

Hi
I am new to xda
I have Xperia X10 mini(not pro) and i am having a problem with root explorer.
i can't find root explorer any more and it is not listed with the other apps i have.
i know it is there because i installed it .
i tried to reinstall it but it says that the program has not been installed.
any one faced this problem???
go to settings/applications and select unknown sources than install root explorer
Already done that but still can't install root explorer.
you must root x10 first
i did that long time ago and i could normally use root explorer back then. but i don't know what happened i think it's damaged or something . now i can't use it and i can't reinstall it
If you done firmware update from SEUS must root again.
Try to solve the problem using titanium
