Question

How do I delete all my contacts if I'm returning my phone?

Community Answer

Go to Contacts and Select All and then hit Delete. Or, if you want to delete everything off the phone since you're returning it, you can go to Reset Phone, which will be in your settings and that will delete everything.

How do I delete some photos?

It is very easy. Open your phone gallery, then select the photos which you want to delete. There should be an option at the corner of your phone to delete it.

Question

How do I delete contacts on my Android phone when it says "contacts has stopped working"?

Community Answer

That error message is actually a processor error, rather than an error with the "contacts" feature. Try restarting your phone to see if that clears it up.

Question

How can I delete contacts from my AOL app?

Community Answer

You can't actually delete contacts from your AOL app. It is permanent. If you make a contact, there's no way you can delete them, unless you delete the AOL app and download it again.
