follow the thread to install clockworkmod.
If u dont have Xrecovery i've attached one for u.
Extract the rar and u'll find 3 files.
Using Root Explorer place the 3 files in /system/bin/...dont forget to change the permissions to r/w
boot into xrecovery by pressing the back key while on the sony Ericsson logo and flash cwm recovery.
But I already have xrecovery.. and my phone version 2.2 now, but don't have clock workmod..

x8toolbox
then just follow the thread and download the req. cwm recovery and install it using xrecovery!
If you are having xRecovery, flash "Amend" package
So that means place the attachment in the sdcard..
switch off ur phone and boot into xrecovery...then select "install zip from sdcard"
select CWM-recovery-3.2.0.0-r3-e15-Amend.zip and flash it!
thats it.
And than what should I continue to do?

Cause now I am stand for mini cm 6 version 2.2.

the method i follow usually is I flash the GingerDX v14 using xRecovery.
This way after flashing the rom i have both xrecovery and cwm.
Maybe u can do the same to flash cwm and then flash watever rom u wish to install using cwm.
This is the easiest method and brick proof.
I've done this several times before.
So it mean if I flash cwd already, I must flash other room, do like this I can't brick my phone?
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
there is no problem if u flash other rom from minicm 2.2..u wont brick ur device....and there is no need to flash any other rom after flashing cwm its upto u. the recovery will work just fine!
So just flash cwd.zip normal ?? Ok... i try now if successful I will come here to say " IT WORK " . but if not see u tomorrow...

Search in google:roms,kernels x8 xda.on the site there is a list of roms.on the right of rom name says(stock)-stock kernel-YOUR KERNEL,(nAa)-nAa kernel,...BUT FIRST ROOT THE PHONE,INSTALL CWM RECOVERY AND THEN TRY INSTALLING.NOO NEED FOR BOOTLOADER UNLOCK.
Ok,download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=729395&d=1316853490 ,then download root explorer,install it and extract the downloaded zip,then go to extracted and open the folder of extracted zip.open the system,then bin folder and copy all three of them to system/bin and replace with existing files.BUT FIRST MOUNT R/W-LITTLE BUTTON TOP RIGHT.then long press on chargemon and select permissions.select:read,write,execute,read,execute,read,execute.save.DO that to other 2 you pasted witlh chargemon.after that,return to sd card,speed software,extracted,cwm folder and go to system,xbin and copy the sh to system/xbin and replace.you will have to copy sh again because system rejects it the first time:no free memory left.after you copyed sh again,change its permissions to read,write,execute,read,execute,read,execute.then reboot and rapidly press the back button when white Sony ericsson logo appears.
PRESS THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED YOU,IT ISNT HARD..

My x8 cannot be rooted. :(

First I've rooted my x8 (15i) successfully, I installedl nAa 13 and installed a Rom. I didn't liked the rom so I flash to my original kernel and version (2.1Update). And I flashed nAa13 again to install Minicm ICS rom but It didn't work for me.. So I flashed again to my original fw.. (I'm a newbie here in flashing so everytime I want to flash a new rom I flash first to my oriniginal fw so I dont know if it's the right way). After I flsahed to my orig fw I've format my sd card (I forgot to unroot my phone.) And now I unroot my phone.. Relocked the bootloader. And root it again but when i root it and connect to usb cable open it on my computer I dont see the system folders (like Android folder) Ive tried everything like using superoneclick, x8 toolbox, flashtool to root and those application said that my device is rooted but I can't see the android folders. What can I do to see it again..? I wish someone could help me. I tried everything but it's not working. (
Try software update/reset using the Sony Ericsson programme on your computer (SEUS) - that should reset it to 'stock'?

haha!
lolz!
if you want to flash new ROM just have rooted phone and unlock phone!
then flash the kernel that is the requirement for the ROM..i.e nAa - MiniCM7 OR alfs - DingerDX
I don't what you mean?
u can't see your folder from your PC or from your phone??
if you want to see from your phone, download and install file manager or root explorer
..
heheh im sorry I'll explain it further. When I root my device and it become rooted (installed superuser) and plug it in my computer i cannot see the SYSTEM FILES OF ANDROID. Like Android Folder, DATA.. That's what i meant but the software (like x8tool, superoneclick, flashtool) says that my device is ALREADY ROOTED. BUT I CANT SEE DATA SYSTEM FOLDERS WHEN I PLUGGED IT IN..
I never see the /system folder on my pc with the phone connected. Why not just use a root browser app on your phone?

hey i've root it again the superuser was installed. And when i plugged it in again in computer and OPEN TO VIEW FILES the folders contains only a FOLDR and 2 xml domcument. I thought when it is ROOTED I can see the Android Folders, DCIM folders, DATA, But why I cant see it. (
Rooting has nothing to do with those folders. Use your phone for a bit and they'll pop up, take a picture etc.

thats correct!
you are rooted.
in stock rom i dont think there is any use for "android" folder as you cant install apps at your sd(i dont remember if i had this folder when i was at stock,but how could i, its been a looong time!), but for "dcim", try to take a pic,as mentioned above!

Did you backup your previous ROM? If not then you could flash other ROM or fix with PCC, SUES or flashtool.

I am sorry, but I don't really understand you. I mean... Y U installed several recoveries? I mean, "PrimeHD90NA" is only working with custom kernel, if I am right (nAa kernel and Alfs kernel). So you just need to flash a kernel (whichever you want from the compatible ones) with flashtool and you got the recovery you need to install the rom you want. . . Maybe I missed the case a littlebit.

Noobie error

Hey guys,
Wiped data, system and cache and rebooted like a pillock, forgot to reflash the rom.
Whats the quickest way to getting back up and running?

Rapair via PC Compagnion (SUS) or use Flashtool v.0.9.13 and flash a Stock FTF. Hold volume down and connect to PC, let Windows install the drivers, in Win7, put FTF in Flashtool folder, select FTF and flash again to Stock.
