        Hello everyone!
        i have been trying to import contacts from my old phone using a .vcf file using this command:

        syncevolution --import contacts.vcf backend=evolution-contacts database=Personal

        however it only imports a handfull of contacts and leaves the rest out.

        is this is UBTouch problem and is it fixable?

          @ComLarsic The way to import contacts, via a vcf file, is to open the file with the file manager and choose Contacts as the program to open it with. Doing that will import the file. There's no need to use syncevolution.

              @ComLarsic You could email it to yourself or use morph to access a cloudservice then follow the instructions above.

                Hi @ComLarsic

                I know this is a little late but it may help others with the same issue.
                There needs to be a black line after each END:VCARD entry in the vcf file
                As soon as I added the empty lines it imported all my contacts.

                Kind Regards
                Kaz
