[RECOVERY] xRecovery 0.3-release | UNIFIED - ALL X10 VARIANTS | 31/01/2010

This is a custom recovery for Xperia X10 based on Cyanogen's recovery source.
Credits and special thanks to everyone involved in Cyanogenmod project!

Thanks to:
zoz33 for his apk installer!
Walkmann for X10 HD solution

How?
Press BACK button few times right after white SE label appears.

Controls:
Use VOLUME-UP and VOLUME-DOWN to browse, HOME to select, BACK to go back.

Features:

ADB root shell

Reboot
Install update.zip from SD Card
Factory reset (full wipe)
Wipe cache partition
Install custom zip
Backup and Restore
Partition tools
- Mount/unmount partitions
- Format partitions
- Mount as USB Storage
Advanced options
- Wipe Dalvik cache
- Wipe battery stats
- Fix permissions for apps (FC fix)

Automatic Installation (recommended):
Open xRecovery installer app and tap "Install xRecovery"

Manual Installation:
- Download the apk, rename it to xrecoveryZIP
- Unpack the file, find ./res/raw folder inside. It should contain 3 files (chargemon, busybox, xrecovery.tar)
- copy these 3 files into /system/bin using root explorer (remember to remount /system rw

Notes:
Please bear in mind that it's not the regular android recovery (we cannot replace recovery image without cracked bootloader). Instead, the boot hijacking is used to start recovery mode. You still need basic files on your /system partition to use this. NEVER use the "format /system" option alone (without flashing another system image thereafter).

This recovery is NOT compatibile with Dual Booting for custom roms (for now you can't have both).

This recovery WILL be used to flash custom roms easily.

DO NOT reinstall busybox. Recovery depends on it's particular busybox version.

Requirements:
1. Phone must be rooted
2. Busybox from the market installed

Changelog:
0.3-release: unified version for all X10 variants and partition layouts
0.2-release: fixed installation issues for those with trashed mtd0 partition
0.1-release: xRecovery installer app - thanks zoz33!
0.0.1-beta: Initial release (for testers)

Download:

xRecovery 0.3-release

xRecovery-charge-offline.zip - flash with xRecovery to get offline charging

Looks hot, NO offence, but will wait until v0.1 is out. Cause 0.0.1 gives me a little worries xD

It will be announced. For now, we don't have such update.zip ready.

As soon as it's tested by more users it will be 0.1

Can anyone confirm installation process works? I did it on a clean system but my mtd0 partition was already modified.

Cheers!
