I. Before You Begin
1. Back up everything you need before you begin.
2. You need to be rooted for this procedure to work. If you are not already rooted, take a look at our procedure on the same.
3. Make sure that you have at least 75% of your battery charged before you start.
4. This procedure is designed to work on Windows operating systems (preferably Windows 7). This will not work on Mac/Linux computers.
II. Necessary Downloads
III. Installing ClockworkMod Recovery on the Xperia X10 Mini
1. Extract CWM-Install E10i – benji.berg@xda.zip to a folder on your desktop.
2. Go to the files folder in the folder you extracted previously.
3. Rename the cwm_install folder to cwm_files.
4. Enable USB Debugging on your device. To do this, go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Developer options and tick the USB Debugging checkbox.
5. Connect your device to your Windows PC. If Windows installs drivers at this point, let it do so before you proceed any further.
6. From the extracted folder, run CWM_install.bat.
And you’re done! You should have ClockworkMod Recovery installed on your device.
