uploaded 2.2.1 minicm its all stable.. lesser bugs..
contacts and texts restored.
thankyou...

What the heck? It says it supports only SE phones???!!!
Wow, my SE phone is not SE anymore? I have installed Custom ROM 2.3.3 HACKDROID

for contact simple export - import will work. from contacts menu export your contacts. it will create a .vcf file in sd card. take a backup in your pc. install new rom & then import those contacts in the new rom. its the best & simple process

Tested.
Does NOT work on racht's Floyo 0.15.

Can somebody please post a working link? Thanks in advance.

I don't think I understand what you meant? Did you restore Contacts App from 1.6 using Titanium Backup??
Yeah sorry last bit made no sense tried to use ti backup to restore com.android.contacts 1.6 but when I click on it ,it only gives me the option to delete it .

Did you ever backup your contacts from within the phonebook?

I don't think thats the way if you want to restore your phonebook. Titanium is used if wanna backup your apps not contact. You should use backup and restore app or other method.

Got this phone from a friend and according to the software version it's running Gingerbread, on boot it's telling me it's Swift Droid, Cyanogen mod 7..
I'm very new to all this so I have no clue what this means but the touch screen is off calibration and I can't find the option to recalibrate it..

Are you using a custom rom? This will only work on x8 stock rom
Sent from Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 using XDA Premium app
yes ,
oh sorry , so tomorrow i will find out in stock rom
ThereĀ“s a video on youtube where a guy does it, but he does it with X8 1.6, so I think you have to downgrade to 1.6 if you wanna do it.
It works with 2.1 stock S.E. ROM.

Do you use apps2sd or something similar of that? (link2sd...) If so, then try to disable it, and install something. Also if you use oc, try to disable it (delete x8oc).
