I have looked & tried different things, but can not seem to figure it out.  I have a lot of Facebook contacts that I do not need as a phone contact.  So someone please help me out.

Thanks

yea, I see that ... based on the OP, I still think it is just cleaner to remove FB from My Accounts.  But maybe that's just me.  (I don't have FB in My Contacts).

 

OP - what did you end up doing ???????  Just curious what worked best for you.

if you want to remove all the facebook contacts just open up your contacts, hit menu, privacy, uncheck facebook

 

if it is just some, you might have to delete each one

I go to my contact, hit menu, but do not see where it says privacy?

Actually I believe it's in MY ACCOUNTS ...  deselect FACEBOOK and those contacts will disappear in CONTACTS ...   You don't need that in MY ACCOUNTS to access Facebook. The login credentials are available in the FB APP itself.

Hello Cody21,

 

Go to contacts > select menu > display group > select google or phone contacts.

 

This will only show your contacts that are save in the requested selection.

 

Hope this helps

I followed the suggestion to go to menu-my accounts-and removed the facebook account.  This deleted all facebook friends from my phone contacts.  I still use facebook with no problems.  I also removed twitter account and that also erased twitter from my phone contacts.  I'm a new Droid X user and I love this community of talented, helpful members.  Thank you for posting.
