That's a general LP bug, similar with the one when phone was FC when trying to clear call history. And it's not only when importing contacts but also when exporting them.
Several questions tho... Why do you import contacts and you're not satisfied with them syncing from google account?
Have you tried restoring contacts with TB?

Sent from nowhere over the air...

I prefer to export my phone contact as vcf instead of syncing with google, maily cause anything you do through google adds them to your address book.. i dont need email contacts saved.. plus i just prefer the hardcopy method and not rely on clouds to assist me.. I never back up any system apps in TB, only market dl apps..

I took your insight on syncing. logged into google deleted all the contacts there, imported my vcf there then synced it to the phone.. now to turn off sync..

Been running this for like 4-5 days now, initially with stock kernel but now with 2nd DEC Icecode using fauxclock for touchboost. Battery life on stock wasn't great and it seems to have improved on icecode. Very stable ROM.

I have to give it to you guys, you guys are awesome! Was on CandyKat 1.6.2, followed all your instructions for this ROM and the install went perfectly! The ROM itself is working flawlessly so far, wifi is good, cell network is good, all my google stuff sync'ed, everything just works like it should along with some custom Candy pieces thrown in. SD Card is working also...Big Props to all you devs who put this together and are keeping the One S alive! Keep up the good work!
