           Summary: Duplicate contacts after reflashing and restoring from
                    backup
           Product: Contacts
           Version: 5.0/(1.2009.42-11)
          Platform: N900
        OS/Version: Maemo
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
        AssignedTo: nobody at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: turist at gmail.com
         QAContact: contacts-bugs at maemo.bugs


SOFTWARE VERSION:
2009.42-11

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
I had an old firmware 41-10 so it may be fixed already

1. Go to Backup application and make a full backup of everything it offers.
2. Save a copy of this on your PC
3. Reflash device to the latest 2009.42-11
4. Restore all your setting and contacts right after first boot.

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
All contacts are in the same state as previously after setting Availability to
Online and waiting for contacts to syncronize with IM contact lists.

 Example:

 Joe Smith: 
  cell number: xxxxx
  skype account: xxxx
  gtalk: xxxx


ACTUAL OUTCOME:
I see my old contact items plus duplicate separate items from IMs:
 Joe Smith: 
  cell number: xxxxx
  skype account: xxxx
  gtalk: xxxx
 skype: joesmith
 joe.smith at gmail.com

So instead of 170 old items it's 200+ now

REPRODUCIBILITY:
1 out of 1 try I had. Sorry, reflashing isn't an everyday thing.

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
none after first reboot
