Went wrong.
Tried it on my x10 mini pro, but it failed.
It doesn’t start anymore, stays at SE white screen and I can’t even enter xrecovery menu anymore.
What do I do?!
🙁
i know what is ur problem,, to enter recovery menu, keep pressing back arrow key,, or press power and back arrow key together and hold untill u enter in recovery… NOTE: don’t press repeatly as you done before,,, keep hold the buttons instead of repeatly pressing!!!
Terrible tutorial. Hyperlinks are wrong and just repeats of previously linked sites, and steps are vague.
