thanks for all who reply back...im now rooted thank you!!!

You need to install SEUS. Go through with an update though the official Sony Ericsson Update Software, until it finds and installs the correct drivers for your X10 in Flash Mode.
After (correct) Driver's have been installed, You will be able to find you Device ID

I had this situation.. I think your gonna have to download pc companion, instal it.. connect ya phone after so it picks it up then try finding it.. if not just try a restart and if you still have no luck as a last resort I suggest downloading the update service alone. 1 of them will work.. don't give up straight away though!
hope it helps!!

If i flash CyanogenMod 7 is there a possibility to brick my Arc?

Hi
I downloaded the repository of cyanogenMod it run gingerbread 2.3.4 so i am trying to port to Arc and try to learn and i built it, its generic and i tested it on the emulator and it worked.
now if i want to flash my Arc for a test will it brick my Arc???
i have the system.img but i am not sure if its safe to test it on my Arc and not briking it. if not then i will test and if anything happened i will reflash with Bin4ry's image.

unless you've modded it to work with the Arc hardware (drivers/ screen resolution etc) then it simply won't work.. so you probably shouldn't bother taking the risk..
There is already someone working on this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057555

yes i am monitoring the thread. but i wanted to try to miss and take a look on the files.

Chances are u could just use flashtool and it would be fine

He has bootloader unlock and might be better to push Bin4ry's .img file.

It's impossible to brick the phone completely by flashing system.img. So you're safe.

Thanks guys.

Do you use apps2sd or something similar of that? (link2sd...) If so, then try to disable it, and install something. Also if you use oc, try to disable it (delete x8oc).

Ok thx i'll try it

There is a rogers specific one but I can't find it. It worked for me and I added a few noob tips to it.

Edit : I can't root via gingerbreak... So can't use titanium backup...

l2 xda search
tbh if you can't read or search then you probably shouldn't be flashing your phone.
The fact that you have made 2 threads and also asked the same question in other threads is a bit spammy tbh.

Ay sorry bout that. I thought I'd get more help here.

There are backup apps other than titanium, a lot of them don't need root.

Next time you get a solution, make sure you update your posts. Of course this is easier to do when you don't post the same question in multiple threads..

z4root is easy and no danger for newbie
then for testing root, install superuser and try it to authorize access to root.

THANKS

IMO best option is flash 2.1 with fastboot then flash cwm and soft with root
