Thank you.

Funny why apple does not allow users to just delete contacts instead of all the data. I had to resort to cydia app to delete my contacts

they are not putting it as an option because it is their intention to not make it user friendly.
from user point of view, it is troublesome.
but from marketing strategy point of view, this is one of the best way to maintain the population of apple user.
not everyone expert in using iTunes. so, when a user already use iphone, and he found that it is really difficult to transfer contact number, that user will always remain using apple product and not changing to nokia or sony or whatever brand that exist.
this is the same reason why they come out with MicroSim idea.

bro, i tried your method and IT DOESNT WORK!!! At last step after i save the new exchange acc, there's no option come out for me to delete contacts from phone. Only come out alert wheter i want to erase contacts from exchange acc.

do u have multiple account of exchange?
because currently nobody fails yet at the moment
mind to share with us how's your setting?

Use erasecontact from Cydia of jailbroken! (:

Great job, worked on iPad too..

Btw step 4 didn't have to be m.google.com
I just simply type something also worked

as been told in the first page, it is meant for anyone who dont want to use apps.

thanks bro for the info!
i also didnt knew it until u told us

Format the whole phone?

as i mentioned in the first post, erase all content is not advisable for apple product
it is worse case scenario if the iphone is lock set.
u may need to pay hundred bucks to unlock it again

no only 1 exchange acc i created. after i save the account, it didnt prompt me to delete contacts from iphone. when i open the new exchange account, then i toggle the contacts to off, then pop up message "Delete from My iphone", but i confirm, all my contacts are still there.

nope.
u should toggle the contacts to ON.

my problem is when i save the exchage acc that i created, it never prompt me as what you stated in your thread. I have done so many times but yet no successful. By default the contacts already ON.

perhaps u already synced your contact before this?

this is good i used to wiped all my contact with my customer within 5 minute time that is much better if you in rush no time do a fully format

agreed
thats why i mentioned in the first page, this trick is best for those who dont want to erase all their content in the phone

So great ~
Thx


I use to delete my contact one by one last time
but luckily it is not too long

bro,i reset,erase all data.
then now wait for 2hours d.
then screen is iclarified.
how ah?
thought of deleting my contacts since I wana sell my phone off.

try to restore back using latest apple firmware.
this is the reason why people dont prefer use option "erase all data"
