Smile Deleting Address Book

Please Login to Remove!

Is there a quick way to delete all the names in the address book? I got a used Curve with over 800 entries. Thanks! HB

The quickest way I can think of would be to connect the device to your PC with the USB cable, launch Desktop Manager, select the backup/restore option, select advanced. Highlight Address book and click the clear button. That should clear out the address book.

You could reset the phone which will basically wipe the phone clean and restore all default settings.

I would recommend a general security wipe also. options>security>general>press menu key and select "wipe device."
