Hello guys I rooted a SE X8 because I am new to all this i do not know how to add new applications or fonts.
Also I tried to download firebox-because the standard browser when it starts i see only a white page when I am in WiFi mode-but i could not start it.
Moreover if I want to upgreade to 2.1 i must unrooted?
How can i delete all my contacts from my Android phone?
 
I have viewed your post but the X8 section of the forum seems to be very quiet. I also had a look over on XDA but they haven't even got a separate section for the X8 yet.

I guess the only thing you could do is ask in the X10 All Things Root section, or have a troll through some of the posts there in regard to the root issue and the update. The 2.1 update isn't due out til the end of the year for the X8's tho.

Some people have mentioned Dolphin Browser or Opera in the other forums, so they might be worth a look. I have a feeling that Firefox isn't working on 1.6 but that is from memory of reading a post on another forum - just can't remember where! Have a google to see if that is the case or try one of the alternative browsers that do work on 1.6.

If you want to delete contacts I would go Settings>Applciations>Manage Applications and find Contacts or Contacts Storage (not totally sure which one) and clear the data. This should wipe the lot. Just make sure you haven't got sync set up because it may sync again and put them all back if you don't want them there.
