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.

Google sync downloads them all. I use adw launcher that allows you to back up app placement on you home screens. Makes it real easy to resetup everything when I flash to a new rom.

I've used this and it does a great job just ensure your contacts are synced via your google account and everything else should be fine.
could always use idrive lite to backup contacts as well
Awesome worked great.
It didnt backed up the data of my copilot like the maps.

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.

Found a big glitch whit xrecovery.

I was on.free x10 i cooked my own theme didnt like it and.i went and installed some apps and.stuffs but when i restored freex10 again to take off my theme and let it be replaced whit the stock froyo one well all my apps was kept + the live wallpaper i had set before restoring again any clue ?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
I am guessing you had the same apps when you backed up before you added the theme..... If so, when you restored FreeX10 vanilla, you did a full restore and restored your settings and apps.
If you want a clean install of Freex10, reinstall custom zip via xRecovery or don't restore apps and data.
I just restored like i always used to and it never happened to me i didnt do an advanced restore :/

You should have done an advanced restore, so you don't restore apps and data.
