I just updated my 6630's firmware using the new Nokia Software Update utility, which kept on telling me to "backup my phone memory" which I did....both on my PC and using the backup feature on the phone, where the phone memory is backed up onto the memory card. At no point did I come across an option asking me whether I chose to backup the contacts also. Obviously, I assumed that phone memory would primarily comprise of important data such as contacts, settings, etc.
Now after the successful backup, my contact list is empty! I restored the memory both from the PC and the memory card (consecutively, to see if there was any change) but there is still no contact list. Surprisingly, my call history shows correct names/numbers as in the (now invisible) contact list, but the same data is not found in the contacts.
What did I do wrong (for future reference) and can I somehow restore my contacts?
