how do i import contacts from android
After i reseted my one touch fire e i have to re-import my contacts from my old galaxy nexus, which runs cyanogen with local contacts.
i can export the contacts ther in various formats - the last time i did it, i exportet in vcf, csv and xml - but only csv worked to import.
but: all meta data was messed up.
this is my vcard format i get from android (CSV):
- without lastname BEGIN:VCARD\nVERSION:2.1\nN:;Test;;;\nFN:Test\nTEL;CELL:000-000\nEND:VCARD\n
- with lastname BEGIN:VCARD\nVERSION:2.1\nN:Tester;Test;;;\nFN:Test Tester\nTEL;CELL:000-000\nEND:VCARD\n
firefoxOS imports not all names and "CELL" is not interpreted as phone number, indead all the numbers where listed as "NULL" (nice to see on every phone call.)
also the N and FN fields where not interpreted fully and/or correctly. After import i got ~10% contacts without any name field filled.
what is the proper way to import contacts from an android local account (whithout proprietary components)?

the problem was:
android stored the contacts in vCard 2.1 format.
by following the instruction here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-manage-and-share-contacts-firefox-os#w_import-from-phone-memory-or-memory-card, i managed to convert the contacts to vCard 3.0 format.
after that the importing worked!
