Hey anshul17k, Androids running 2.1 do not have Bluetooth tethering enabled.

You can, however, use your X8 as a portable wifi hotspot...which IMO is a much sleeker way to share your internet connection.

Read my blog on tethering on the Xperia here

Hi anshul17k, download SuperOneClick on your laptop, connect your phone and root it. I'm assuming you're on Windows. Once your phone is rooted, Barnacle should run fine.
