Refresh imcomplete/incosisent for cardDAV contacts

SimpleContacts 4.0.4 DAVdroid 1.11.5-ose Android 6.0 Lenovo K10a40 Contact stored in Nextcloud 13.0.4

Hi Tibor,

I'm trying to narrow down some smaller refresh issues, both for simple-contacts and also simple-calendar. Smaller, no big issue s:-)

Steps today:

• Created contact in Nextcloud
• manually started sync to Android via DAVdroid

--> fine, new contact visible both in stock contacts app and simple-contacts

• change in Nextcloud, setting "Organization" from NULL(empty) to a value
• manually started sync to Android via DAVdroid

--> "Organization" is visible in stock contacts app, but NOT in simple-contacts

Tried to stop/start, "force stop" and inactivate/activate (via dev options) simple-contacts, no change, "Organization" keeps invisble, shown as empty when switching to "edit" mode.

Remark: (Of course) "Organizsation" is selected as to-be-displayed field in simple-contacts, shown for other contacts in simple-contacts if not (really) empty

P.S.: It seems to be (only?) the field "Organization". Changes in "URL" or "Comment" are synced fine

This bug is related to #195, although that issue is written in a very unpolite way. "Company"/"Organization" and "Job Position" have to be set at create time, otherwise they're "off" for SimpleContacts. BUT, at least for me, "Notes" can be filled later, no issue with "Notes"

@tibbi I also have this issue. I cannot fill the field "company" on contacts I create nor can I see or change the field in existing contacts. Not sure reading through this if it's a bug or platform limitation but I'd appreciate if this can be fixed in a future release. My device is Xiaomi Mi8 running MIUI 10 Stock ROM with Android 8.1.0 . I've installed the most recent F-Droid version of SimpleContacts today. My contacts are synced from an exchange account via ActiveSync through the GMail app. I can see the "company" field when I use the stock rom's "Contacts" app from Xiaomi. Thanks in advance and thanks again for providing those cool and very efficient apps :).

I plan fixing such syncing and contact storing issues, but many of them I just cannot reproduce. That makes it hard to fix. Ill have to try some different service combinations in the future.

I have had issues where contacts are missing and also where just the phone number fields were not displaying. The missing contacts I cannot seem to reproduce, but the missing number seems to be related to the format:

# Phone number is missing in contact
TEL;TYPE=cell;VALUE=uri:tel:+1555 555 5555

# Works
TEL;TYPE=cell:+1555 555 5555

From the RFC it seems to be a valid value.

that should help, thanks
