Automatically exported .VCF can't be imported #31
Comments
Can you send an example of a non-working VCF file (anonymized)? |
@Aga-C |
Thanks! It looks that you got JSON exported instead of VCF. It surely needs to be fixed. |
The feature was originally added at SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Contacts#998 @Merkost Do you remember why it was done that way or was it just a mistake? Sorry for the ping :) |
Hi there, |
@Merkost Hi, sorry my two cents question: |
It will work, as the hidden fields are not custom ones |
Yes, this one here is an old bug from SimpleTools. I remember several opened issue threads about it (including mine) and it hasn't been tackled ever since. |
Since VCF is a well-known file format, it makes sense for automatic backup exports to be in that format. |
Hi, I wanted to open new issue but maybe I could mention my problem here and I will open new issue if you need me to do so. What I tried but the automatic backup didn't do anything:
Device info |
@abdo2048 Automatic backup runs once a day. |
@Aga-C Sorry, I didn't know that. |
aggreed. what make me wonder is that the "fix" was implemented in January, but the bug is still there in July. |
Checklist
Describe the bug
Trying to import one of the daily automatically backed up .vcf file.
It fails every time.
I have tried other days backup, does not help.
If I export manually, that works as normal import.
(But that is not efficient enough)
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior
To able to import,
automatically exported .vcf files.
Device info (please complete the following information):
Additional context
So i have analyzed the manually and the automatically exported .vcf files.
Their data structures are Totally different.
Because the manual works I did not touch it.
Than I tried to clean/the automatic backed up one/ by allowing only 1 contact
(Without extra infos for example: address; email etc.) and that failed too so based on this
the automatically exported files must be broken by default.
