[Q] root unsuccessful :( - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
the problem is next:
I root my phone (xperia x8) with super one click (successful), i follow the instructions
then i installed root explorer. after that I copy the cwm files and with root explorer i tried to remove it to system/bin
the problem starts here. there wasn't enough space, so I remove 3 files of 4.
after that i uninstall some unimportant apps to get some space.
when I tried to enter root explorer the message appear:
"restart app"
"Root explorer has not yet managed to obtain root accsess because of issuses with superuser,this often happensthe first time the app is run but usually fine from the on Click ok and restart the app to try again make sure you respoding superuser promt"
after that i tried everything:
- reinstall root explorer, restart phone, allow/decline in superuser... no result
- install es file es file explorer, and follow the instructions but no results, can see the system/bin folder but can't manage(copy/paste, cut/paste)
the message when i click root explorer in es file explorer said that the phone is not support.
in meanwhile I noticed that i cannot connect to my wireless network....
after that i tried:
- settings reset, nothing
- factory defaults.
after factory default my phone don't recognize my Sim card, and the wireless still not work.
I don't know what to do.
Can someone please help!
Please

did superuser ask you about permision? if not then you need to have superuser to use that alsbo you can install the cwm via rommanager which can be downloaded for free from google play

Thanks for the answer.
The superuser asked me about permission. and I click allow.
what is the procedure with rommanager?
Thanks in advance

after you get it from market you just need to open it and click flash cwm recover after that it will tell you that is completed succesful or not

but...
there is a little problem,
i can't connect to wireless network, and my sim card don't work, so I can't download it from market...
any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Root your x8 using flahtool then use x8 toolbox to install recovery or cwm (is better) then try to get to cwm and make backup. Chceck mamufacture date and if you can unlock your bootloader then download and install custom kernel and rom

It is easy
1. Go to settings
2.select privacy settings
3.go to FACTOR DATA RESET
I will format everything and reset your data
"CLICK THANK IF I HELPED YOU "
Finally i solved the problem by flashing official rom(gingerbread 2.3.4), following this tutorial:

I know that hard reset would a more fast solution, but believe me that update to gingerbread is the smart choice

[Q] Full root CF LPY?

I have LPY running with the CF kernel which was flashed via mobile Odin. I have root access for programs like Titanium, but I cannot delete items from my system/apps folder. I use ES File Explorer with the options checked for root access and for rw on root. I figured it was just an issue with the kernel but I have been told that full root works for others. Does anybody have any thoughts as to how I could go about getting full root working? I want to delete that pesky GMS_Maps.apk so I can replace it with one with working navigation where I live. Thanks for any help!

Check the "Mounted as button" on top left of Root Explorer and make sure you can switch the system to R/W (read/Write)
It may default to Read/Only
I downloaded root explorer in case that was the issue. I click the rw button when I go into the system folder but no joy. When I press it, nothing happens. The state remains ro and the button remains rw.

Tried reinstalling cwm and su/busybox via cwm and still no dice. Thinking I might just have to live with it until another kernel comes out and I feel safer with all this installing zips in cwm. Still, if anyone has any thoughts, please let me know because it's a bit annoying to me.

It's not LPY, but I seem to have full root again after flashing the newest ics and installing su/busybox using the following:

Some apps I've found I had to browse to the external SD card by going mnt/sdcard/external_sd. I don't have my phone on me (getting repaired) so I can't check, but I found it pretty confusing. I had to actually go to my PC and browse to make sure it was actually pointing to the right spot.

[Q] SAMSUNG GALAXY POP s5570i (Problem)

Plz help my sMINI s5570i .... Problem is with my Talk app. See screenshots.
:good:
Sorry for rotated pics
your problem must be your google gapps. I have suffered this kind of problem and my only solution was to reinstall gapps after uninstalling all the google apps.
- Donload from this forum the gapps for your OS (GB, ICS, KK???)
- Open the file for the gapps and navigate inside the ZIP to the /system/app golder
- Look at all the files inside this folder, an uninstall all those apps from your phone. You will need to be rooted an to use a root explorer, for example ES file explorer or Root Explorer
- go to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, in "mount and storage" be sure to mount "system" (it mus show "unmount" to be mounted)
- Install gapps and reboot
This has worked for me. Try it and give feedback
Thx for reply but its my dad's phone and he never allow me to root it :7 so any way for non rooted device plz

Another big problem is its memory
Due to low memory my dad uninstall the updates of play store and uninstalled Google play services also.
The play store is inbuilt and now its shown as 'market' and fully different from Play Store

Then the only solution is to try to flas new gapps again. Being in stock you can acces the stock recovery yet. First of all download the temporary CWM from the forum (search....)
Access the stock recovery with the combo Vol Up+home+start. Then in recovery-->apply update from sdcar-->flash temporary CWM. Now in the new recovery -->mount and storage-->mount system-->install zip-->flash new gapps-->reboot
Try this
Possible without root?? If yes then plz send link of temporary cwm recovery for samsung galaxy pop+ s5570i .

search for:
pop_plus_CWM-Scorpyo82.zip
It is right for you. You can do it without root (I believe)
Thx buddy but i m little afraid coz i googled it and found only wrong files or recoveries for gt s5570 not for 5570i ...
Some people like me who dnt know the difference between mini and pop ,installed those recoveries and bricked their pop plus (GT s5570i).
Hit THANX if you are the best
And buddy the gapps u said take lot of memory but i need to replace the TALK APP only i think!!
Hit THANX if you are the best
