Then a sync over bluetooth from the N9, no joy either.

In the end I exported all contacts on the N9 into vcf cards, browsed through the Jolla contacts to find out the missing ones. Painful, as I found no way to see a long list of names. The grouping by initial makes you go up again after finishing A to click the B etc. Anyway, I found 137 names missing.

Merged the vcf files into one file. Sent it to the Jolla, no joy. In Excel I threw out all the lines I mistrusted, leaving plain and simple vcf cards with 1 phone number and 1 e-mail address. Pasted those into a new file, sent it to the Jolla by bluetooth and it worked! There may be an easier way, but I did it!
I cannot comment on the missing fields after import, but I definitely reported the issue with missing contacts after import from a merged .vcf file. Some Jolla dev is working on it, and already from what he did, I could import 160 out of 163 contacts instead of 39 out of 163! He's still working on the reasons why 3 were omitted, and I think that when he successfully reproduce the bug, we can expect a fix.
