what firmware are you using on your phone(under about phone) !?

and try the 1.5.5 version make sure when you run it you have USB debugging enabled! (under settings /applications/development ) you may also want to make sure you have UNKNOWN SOURCES checked!

z4 and universal will no longer work after the first version of 2.1! so dont bother with those!

you could also try the root tool that comes with the lastest flashtool

make sure when you root you choose 'connect phone' and not mount for usb storage mode!

2.1-update 1

build 2.1.a.0.435

2.6.29 SEMCUser@SEMCHost #1

x10a

this is beginning to p1ss me off, I think it must be a driver/adb issue, i did the fix for 64 bit, and now Im on xp and still cant connect to daemon when i say adb devices in cmd. I have the latests drivers, maybe i need to install older ones, maybe these have security?

also what are the signfiles.bat ,etc on my sdcard, they look SE signing tools , like they verify signature, etc.

also tried downloading the new rooting method for 2.1, rootme.tar, but server is unavailable.

yahhhhh! this is nuts!
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
adb kill-server and start-server work, so I know my adb is ok, I have android sdk installed. path>adb devices **daemon still not runningerror: cannot connect to daemon, so it has to be the phone or the drivers Im guessing. arrghhh!

[XPERIA X10 General] sopdogg:
Best way to root, install Xrecovery and JIT enable your phone is via Flash Tool. I'm on AT&T too, and found it rather simple.

Follow the guide found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1012380

Make sure you have installed java on your computer.

Also, do not mount your SD card. While your phone is on, connect your phone via usb and hit root once your phone is recognized.

I'm not sure if this is necessary for rooting but for flashing purposes you need to connect your phone via pc companion or SEUS. Check to see if you have the latest firmware and set your phone up to flash new firmware. The computer will install flash drivers onto your computer. You don't have to install the latest AT&T firmware if there is one. You just want to have those flash drivers on your PC.

Hope this helps!
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
ok, so i was trying to follow the AT&T giude from 1.6 -2.1, which says update then root, should I go back to 1.6 and try universalandroot or z4root, root first, then update? or will I lose root when I update? Thanks guys.

installed PC companion update my driver, but still no adb devices cannot connect to daemon, and SOC 1.5.5 failed

I installed SEUS on my other PC too, didnt seem to change much, drivers were the same.

this is crazy, what should i do guys? use pc companion to repair? go back to 1.6 and try rooting then update??
[XPERIA X10 General] sopdogg:
Just use flash tool and press root if you just want to root. You don't have to sideload any apps which is blocked by AT&T anyways.

Update to 2.1 in order to install xrecovery. Once done updating, root it afterwards by pressing the root button on flash tool. No need to go back to 1.6 just to root. Just follow the guide and then you can install any rom you want. The Agent got your back.
[XPERIA X10 General] sopdogg:
Ok, so I re-read your thread. Let me summarize what I know.

1. Flash tool says you have root after your phone rebooted

2. You can not install busybox via flash tool

It might be that your phone is already rooted. If you tried to install busybox or xrecovery through flash tool and have seen that the advanced options are greyed out, it is because you need to press "ask root permissions" and then accept on your phone.

Also check to see if superuser is working correctly, Install Titanium backup to check. Install it from the marketplace open it up. A box should pop up saying "Allow Root Access"?

If so, then you have done it correctly.

I'm not keen with all the coding so I don't know how to read those logs you have noted.

Try pressing root again on flash tool and let it reboot, let me know what you see afterwards.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
TYhanks for the help , I appreciate it guys.

im at my home laptop with win7 64 bit and adb devices shows serial number connected. adb push gives me cannot connect to daemon error, and super one click fails. I have busybox and superuser .apks installed from astro but both not "fully" installed without root. I know how to check for root, and I do not have it even when flashtool tells me I should. Really strange. what is going on??

ok, didnt want to do it, but im going to try the old way, with the 3 .bat files, is this a good idea? wish me luck! (if i can find clearer instructions)

cant go to sony ericsson unlock bootlloader online with IMEI, becuase its a loaner and says invalid IMEI... *double facepalm*!
[XPERIA X10 General] sopdogg:
I had those same issues with my 64bit windows 7 too. I think it has to do with Java and how adb tools works better with 32 bit. Troubleshooting your computer and phone might be the way to go.

Make sure on your phone you have usb debugging clicked via Settings>applications>Development. Also, just for the hell of it, click unknown sources.

Make sure on your computer, UAC/User Access Controls is turned off. If you recently installed java, reboot your computer.

After reboot, restart cmd and get into your adb folder. Type adb devices. Should show if you have your phone connected/computer recognizes your phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Start over with new download of Flash Tool and 2.1.A.0.435 ftf firmware.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
this is terrible!

will try to reflash the 2.1 update again.

relashed fine, without rebooting, ran Root option from flashtool, says should be rooted after reboot, havent rebooted yet, but definetly no root.

F%ck! after flash tool finishes and reboot still zilch! I dont think flashtool is installing superuser, here's a log, man this is awful!

strange.. now i cant seem to get adb devices, with the latest drivers, to show anything.. cant connect to daemon... give me a break.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
24 hour bump! hopeless
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
Hate to say it, but it sounds like a isolated issue. Thousands of people used the flash tool and superoneclick successfully. Are you sure you selected the next tab, "root permissions" after root? You need to do that to install SuperUser and Busybox.

Also, antivirus should be disabled.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Yeah it has to be either his computer or something he's doing wrong... works for literally everyone else who has tried
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
somethings totally borked.. im guessing adb/ driver issues, ive tried 2 different drivers, made sure adb is set up in env var. and included 64 bit java path, restarted phone and pc many times,

now all i get is adb cannot connect to daemon and protocol status errors.

i have SEUS and PC Companion 2.0 installed.

even when i had adb working, didnt seem to connect well in the root programs, but that doesnt explain why .apks like x10root dont work it says exploid launched and toggles wi fi off and on, but still nothing after reboot.

can anyone walk me back to 1.6, and maybe start from the beginning, I dont thin we can enable non-market apps on 1.6, but im hoping some root method would work and maybe i could keep root and update to 2.1??

i'll be searching around in the meantime.

thanks guys.:eek:

edit: why do i feel that Sony has some security in the drivers preventing connection?
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
yes also tried ask root permission after rooting with flash tool, and says waiting for device, it should pop up and ask me to allow but never does.
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
XP, maybe... Win7, should have no problems with usb drivers.

If it says root successful, what makes you think it wasn't? Does superuser appear in app tray?

Also, unknown sources needs to be ON, as well as usb debugging in settings / applications.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
ive tried win 7 and xp, even running flashtool in compatibility mode, after root finishes wit flash tool I do not see superuser app, i can install it with astro, but more is needed than just the app.

i see the script to install superuser in flashtool, but i dont see the .apk in there anywhere, im using 0.2.8, yes ive tried 0.2.9.1 beta

yes usb debug and unknown sources are checked.

my SDK is on C:\

and i put any flash/root programs on root of pc in c:\ and run them as admin

ive also tried running them from desktop.

and as of now, still no adb? just cant connect and protocol status error.

just to make sure, let me check my wifes cappy in adb.

update: wifes rooted cappy works a charm, adb devices, show up right away, adb shell and su work instantly and ls shows file system, so Im 99% sure its not adb set up on my comp., aren't there adb files on the phone?, maybe these are corrupt?? somehow? idk?, or my drivers are not configured properly..

in device manager, it says sony ericsson sa101> under that it says..> sony ericsson sa101 ADB inerface driver, ive tried the lastest ones , from march and april 2011
[XPERIA X10 General] agentJBM:
If says root successful try installing superuser yourself.

Also, I would use flash tool 0.2.9.1 beta. Completely uninstall flash tool, SEUS, and PC Companion. Reinstall SEUS, run repair software. That will reinstall usb drivers. Then install flash tool 0.2.9.1 and root.

ADB is not required for flash tool. I would not have them in the same path.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
tried running in safe mode with networking, nothing.

trying uninstalling everything and rebooting and using 0.2.9.1 beta flashtool right now, thanks!

update:

uninstalled evevrything, SE USB drivers, SEUS, PC Companion, and flash tool.

restarted pc and phone installed SEUS, repaired/re-installed software, fresh 2.1, ran falsh tool 0.2.9.1. , same old error: unable to identify device??????????, selected x10, ran ROOT, and finishes saying root should be available after reboot. after reboot, i have no superuser.apk or busybox.apk on app drawer, try running ask root perms from flashtool and says click allow, but of course i dont ge any allow message, because Im not rooted..

good night.

have to try again later, thanks everyone.
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
widh me luck, i think I may have a solution, I need the latest SDK, in the process its downloading every platform and API version ever, I think this may actually be the answer. Will post back soon.

all the lastest sdk doesnt work either, yes I updated my adb path, too.

oh well will try on my xp computer at work.

peace guys!
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
latest sdk r10 with platform-tools r3, x10 drivers from SE support site, still getting adb cant connect to daemon errors.

That aside, x10root.apk doesnt work, and neither does SOC or Flashtool.

Someone please tell me should I flashtool generic 1.6, and hope to root on 1.6?

:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] Lion3494:
My gosh. Bro when u root you have to reboot the phone then install busy box. If you don't have superuser after you root then install it from the market. But you have to reboot
[XPERIA X10 General] chrisrotolo:
yeah , thanks buddy Im well aware of that as I said previously superuser doesnt seem to get installed during root, and I have rebooted, many times. I am still trying, I cant even find 1.6 .ftf, to revert back. If i try to download flashtool from phone, it says this type of file is not supported( maybe certificate issues ).

OK, how about some one with a rooted 2.1 pull system.img, boot.img, and anything else I might need and bundle a rooted 2.1 *.ftf fo me, can this be done??

about the only thing I have done successfully is go to generic 2.1

@Lion3494, I have rooted many devices, I'm not a beginner, just new to X10. I have tried installing Busybox after reboot and guess what it tells me? not rooted.

Im not mad, a little upset, but mostly confused... and determined!
[XPERIA X10 General] realunited123:
Use SEUS and go through the process. Also install PC companion. This should fix the driver issue. Then uninstall the su app or factory rest the phone. Then try rooting through the flash tool . Make sure C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin is added to the path in environmental variables.

using flashtool 0.2.8, first flash says incorrect drivers... was told to install the ones using Gordons gate, bundled with flash tool, once i ran that .exe, finally it seemed to like those drivers, and finally automagically recognized my x10 in flashtool.

knew I would be golden from there. rooted with flashtool.

So thanks you to everyone! I got busybox and superuser, ran optimize, installing xrecovery now and on to the ROMS!
