Rooted 2.1 on a E15a GSM x8 xperia? - XPERIA X8 General

Hello
All the threads in here have the modified rooted 2.1 on the E15i x8 version,
I was wondering if anyone have sucessfully rooted their E15a x8 version to 2.1?
Thanks,

I don't.. but is problaby because i didn't follow the tutorial well or something that i forgot to do.. xD
Anyway, i'll keep trying, and maybe will help those who can't root their phones to..
(sorry my bad english, i'm portuguese..xP)

you can root to 2.1, you can only flash.

My E15a is rooted. Refer to this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906195

I also have e15a rooted.
Don't forget to install busybox after rooting! If you try to enable JIT and you don't have busybox, you'll have to reflash.
BTW there's an app on the market called "busybox". It will install it on the phone. Worked for me.

Have fun!
Root for 2.21
Try this Super One Click
Alternatively, you can flash the latest voodoo 5.0.3. There are two 5.0.3s there, JPU and JPX, be sure to pick the right one. It comes with ClockworkMod recovery that can be very handy. Then just download Superuser from the market. If you're not interested in the lagfix, create the folder(s) /Voodoo/disable-lagfix on the internal sd before flashing so you can skip the conversion process. It's what I did.
Thanks for your help guys.
Much appreciated =D
hi all i spent three days trying to root my fone without losing my wifi.i finnaly found a web site. go to google type xxjpu galaxy root.you should find a site that as xxjpu root and voodoo all in flash + ther are some realy cool addons tools. the fourm is becoming to confusing with so many fimwares floating around.the should be a data base system like samfirmware.com to make it easy.

New firmware on seus.

Just tried using seus to reflash my x8 due to brick. And it says there's new firmware available, anyone tried it? New features? Didn't update incase of loosing root. Used x10 flash instead.

About a week ago i have downgrade to 1.6 (donut)
I just curius about donut because i haven't seen it before.i got my x8 in eclair state.
After i done with it,i use SEUS to upgrade to eclair again.
I have already run SEUS for 2.1update1 so i have the SEUS DB download at my laptop.
When i do the update, SEUS download data about 106mb
before this time it's download about 126mb.
I don't see any difrences after the updates.
just my Model name From x8 changed to e15i
maybe it because i downgrade to donut
There is none.
Maybe thats the 2nd release of 2.1? With ANT+ stuff.
Ok thanks for replys, still rootable then?

He didnt flashed it but someone with generic firmware can try to update if is update real of course.
Well... What's the CDA for Generic World?
1236-9291?
Not sure but i have backup of generic firmware I can check but how i can extract this img files?
Open system.img with aZuZu XPERIA Android Series Kitchen and then go to [ Build Properites Editor] and voila - you'll see the CDA

My experience is that if you update with PCC the baseband won't be ...015, and the build won't be the newest. But with SEUS iit will be. And then you are able to install 2.2 floyo. So I prefer SEUS.

you need to instal pccompanion first
Z4root don't work with latest firmware. You must use SuperOneClick from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906195
Or with latest FlashTool you can root phone too
I rooted with flashtool, its great and has other options too.

Did you enable the USB debugging mode?
And X8 drivers already installed?

Only works on the Xprt, as far as I know. You could try it though, it wouldn't cause any harm.

Don't know about the pro, but you can upgrade your xprt to gingerbread now, and use the download I posted above to root it
