Is that possible to do?

After using app2sd, my phone stopped working and now its stuck on the G1 bootscreen.

I just added several phone numbers a couple minutes before hand and i'm afraid that gmail did not snyc it. (checked my contacts on gmail contacts, they're not there :mad:)

So, again I was wondering if there was a way to recover the contacts on my phone through adb

uh... your contacts are sync'd with your google account... just go to your google account to get your contacts. if not check your simcard.

Alright, I could be WAY off, but this would be my guess.

I would pull something like data/data/com.android.htccontacts

I have no idea if that is where your contacts are stored, but there are folders labeled databases, libs, and something else in there.

That would be my guess, but don't trust me...

I've searched the entire data folder on the phone, and can't really find anything. Sorry

Edit: I also don't know if the dalvik-cache has anything to do with it, but there is a dex file there related to contacts: system@app@HtcContacts.apk@classes.dex

i said after that check the sim, but if your stuck in loop, run ddms see whats going on, and see if you can go from there, you can also move everything back from /system/sd/app to data/app n see if that fixes it
