The proofs my thing.. I kinda explained in the PM i just sent you.. I just don't trust everyone after spending a lot of time in the PSP and DS scenes and i thought you might claim it. Sorry for that.

Haha for the pot thats a case of whatever, he cares more for the glory per say. Its more just getting his name known and getting told thanks since he's not had that before and he'd love to be known like you guys.

Added - Also i have to add you seem a lot cooler than some of the PSP devs, shame the users appear as bad.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] eRixx:
I for one totally agree with this statement. Root was obtained some time ago by using SETool. That should have counted as well, then ;-)

Anyway, apart from the fact that i absolutely applaude the progress made by all parties; why not just publish the method? Isn't it up to the user to decide whether to wait for the 'fool proof' explanation?

All this making us wait is pretty much useless. This is in regard to all parties that claimed root.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Talonnb:
Well then again, you have to consider that most of the guys that have figured out root have an intelligence/experience level in coding/Linux that most of us don't share. If they published a walkthrough in their terms, they'd be flooded with PM's asking stupid questions, complaints about bricking and so on. You know as well as I do, that there are more than enough 'users' on here that would foolhardedly jump at trying it and fail miserably, based on how many people where flashing ROMs and frying their devices that way.

Lets just let em work, and I'm sure we'll see a nice walkthrough published by Binary or one of his associates later.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mraellis:
You and Talon both have very good points and its all stuff we considered. Like we said we eventually went with what Bin4ry said of not showing you guys anything until it was ready but I beieve LordPhoenix mistook what he meant on that and i didn't help by saying don't show proof.

A lot of this has been done wrong guys but its a lesson for the future eh. :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
The problem is the order things happened. As i wrote you in PM and i wrote before i have absolutely no problem. BUT i haven't understand that he had not proofed his root! (With a photo or smth.)

Because he wrote he has root -> We spoke and i said don't publish yet -> He said okay -> He wrote here that he spoke to me that he won't publish yet -> He said that he gives some proof in the next days -> he was never seen again

Not even by me, who had email contact AND gtalk with him. So that was the "root" of not believing anymore.

Regards
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mayamo:
Seriously.. Who cares about who got it first..

I'm not donating my money to anyone who claims they've got the root. It's going to whoever can provide me a custom rom and an easy way to root the fastest.....

I don't get what the big fuss is between bin4ry and lordphoenix...

If lordphoenix can upload something i can use before bin4ry does, then he'll get my thanks and the donation, if not, then who ever gets it to me will..

So can we stop arguing/whinning here about who got the root first and who's lying and just patiently wait for a root we can use??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
We will publish when it's ready to publish. This discussion is no point of break in work on the rooting. so don't worry :)

AND:

If everybody can speak offtopic in this forum, I can do an ontopic discussion or not ? ^^

Regards
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:
Look, I don't know what LordPhoenixSalvation may have done. I know what WE have done. And we rooted the shell. And for all those of you non-believers of the photos I take between 11pm and 7am, here you've got a video. You can see it IS my phone (that removed sticker, the text written with marker on the pcb, all the headers trashed.... and you can see we, indeed rooted it, and that it's no photoshop. Now, please, everyone, the least time we spend on this crap, the more productive we are and the sooner we'll get this going for everybody!

And for you all to understand, the problem we're facing is if we let this go public as it is, in two hours SE will cut it down. So please let us finish it!

By the way, no phone has been bricked with this method. Even though I have tried and tried and the most I got was an endless loop. But no definitive bricks at all, so it's quite safe

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] strike2k:
You do have silent developers on this forum who would maybe like to collaborate in producing a new ROM asap.

Also I would like to ask if the private key has been hacked so that we can flash new roms.

And finally kudos to Jerpelea in relation to the rom decrypting :)

Offtopic:

Correct me if I am wrong but the kernel used in 1.6 is the same in 2.0/2.1 or very similar. That would mean less hassle with the drivers....

What is that local app that you launched to show that you have root.....

I am totally new to this.....
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ojpd:
Thanks so much to all the Devs (Jerplea, Bin4ry and biktor)!!

I hope you don't mind I have a kinda off-topic question.. Would it be safe for us to update to let's say R2BA020 (telenor) or other generic R2BA020 updates that may come out this week or to the one already posted on jerpelea's other thread??? Safe as in could we still have root on our X10's using the said firmware version??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] not.implemented.yet:
Shoud be safe. But we can't say for sure till we tested the update.

Kind regards

Notimpyet
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] marada2:
do you know if the root will also apply to the x10 mini?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] McKebapp:
Not sure... Afaik non of the Devs has one X10mini (pro).

Focus is atm on making X10 user - installable.

I guess other S///E Androids will be tested afterwards.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] marada2:
Ok thanks for your answer. Just one other thing if it is confirmed the phone is rooted, how far away are we from being able to load custom roms to upgrade the OS to 2.2 as I am aware this will need another stage.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] not.implemented.yet:
Maybe i can borrow one @ weekend.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MeZmeriZe_:
Just wanted to make a suggestion..

If a VM is not required, why not just modify a knoppix bootable CD to contain whatever tools you need and people don't need to know anything at all about installing linux to use it. There are plenty of tutorials online for how to make a custom knoppix disk.. and I doubt you'd have to modify it all that much anyway.

from a user perspective, they could download your custom iso image, rip it to a CD using Nero or whatever and boot from the cd.. then run whatever root shell script or whatever you have.

beats trying to get newbies to install linux. (not that it is hard, but it might be to some newbies)

That is how I'd do it anyway. (I work in a universities IT dept.)

Actually, I just found this:

http://code.google.com/p/live-android/wiki/howtouse

You could use CD bootable Android to do the job from the looks of it.

cheers

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] biktor_gj:

I do not recommend you to flash this guys, stay frosty.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sim-value:
No.

For me it looks like his method will just Brick the X10s (like we can do since long) and that was it ...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rodrigofd:
DON't ever think of following this instructions directly !!!

Haven't you read?? This post is mostly done by request of some of the people from this thread.

GSMTribune itself is stating that this should not be done by anyone, for now. It's mostly a proof-of-concept.

We should wait what do the other 'team' (Bin4ry etc) have to do about this.

I'm afraid more than one poor dumb will fall for the rush and proceed to this, without carefully reading, that is almost a safe brick method...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kajkac:
i know that a loot of people is waiting for this root so its better to wait a little bit more to get a tested stuff instead a bricked phone...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] eviltuna:
I wouldn't call it "proof-of-concept" as he didn't post any "proof" yet. As someone pointed out, if you look at his guide it says:

5. Boot into X10 Recovery (Power + Answer Key)

We don't have an answer key though. And how hard is it for him to post a pic of the X10 rooted when Binary posted a vid in like 5 secs after people requested it.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Britt78:
Yeah, I call bull. But on the other hand he also writes:

Could also be that he haven't come far at all in the rooting process and that's why he haven't posted any proof yet.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] andy8271:
why have they wrote a guide and uploaded files that WILL brick peoples phones ?

all we wanted was a simple image showing root. yet there isnt one because he hasnt succeeded .

this whole thread has been turned to **** by this 'fake' root when it has no relation to binary and friends root and shouldnt even of been mentioned in this thread

shows how impatient some people are
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Draken Korin:
Mod. edit:

CLOSED on OP request.

Everything of importance has been said for now and we don't want it to go OT as another thread here did.

Keep your questions and post them when root has been released (and no, I have no idea when that will be).

For the questions on other posts:

No need for jtag, all is done software wise, but it's not easy by now(not even a little)

You can restore the firmware through seus if you need

There's still a lot of work to do to get this working for everyone, so please be calm while we find a way to make it easier for everyone to follow.

By the way, more proof :P

Congrats and many thanks from Winnipeg! I don't dare pester the team, but any Android wizzes around here know how long it takes to develop an easy root method once root is established, and how long porting of roms takes? I am a giant newb and that that because Android is basically running on VM that with root you could practically throw anything at it, and optimize ROMs as you go!
