Try logging in to your Gmail account on the computer.
Export your contacts that you saved to a .CSV file and save it on your desktop.
Google search a ".CSV to Vcard converter" and convert the file to Vcard.
I know that the phone can import Vcards, so maybe you can either:
A: save the converted Vcard to your SD card and import it
or
B: I have no other ideas!

I have had the pinch zoom bug, having to relog into gmail everytime I restart.
The 228 fixed all my signal problems! I was sitting in my house which is 200 yards from a cell tower with 1 bar, now i have full service.
i enjoy most aspects, the freaking navigator is AWESOME, works perfect, i used it to drive home from work and it was down to the foot correct on turns and such. Before we only had text directions, no real gps directions.
I second what was said about restoring..DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM SETTINGS!

One thing I noticed while playing with settings is that you can turn off the haptic feedback for the soft keys (home, menu, back and search) by going to settings>sound and display> uncheck haptic feedback. I know some people on here were looking for that option on 1.5. If only that would do the dial pad also.....
Eh, I'll wait for the OTA. Had some bad stuff happen with leaked firmwares etc in the past.
Want.

I'll try this now
EDIT: It makes a seperate .vcf file for each contact Is that right?
I've tried removing the account, and it wont allow me and says I need to go to Settings > About Phone in order to reset the phone to factory defaults. I couldn't locate that. I also Tried adding another account to no luck. It's odd, it started up and read everything fine when I put 2.1 on. But how/why did it partially read all of my contacts? ...makes me think what else did it not finish

For some reason my reception is terrible. I only have one bar. I did the *228 and got nothing. I had my phone next to my girlfriend's Blackberry and she had full bars while I only had one. Snybody know of any other fixes to get more bars?

I'm having an issue that is really sucking. In gmail, pictures won't show up even if you say "show pictures" . They just show question marks. Now I'm regretting updating.
I looked through this thread quickly and didn't see an explanation. This bug is being caused by Google Voice. As soon as I uninstalled it the login problem stopped.
Handcent has been screwing around with me. Texts will not send until you resend it or they simply won't send at all. *228 did not work for me. It would ring, I'd press 1 or 2, it would start updating, then say update failed. The voice will say "sorry, your phone can not be updated at this time. Please call *such and such number* from a landline..."
Simply, I just stopped using Handcent and went back to stock. I miss the quick reply pop up, but...it's no biggie.
The sound went out for the second time today. YouTube did not work. It seems the mic is affected as well. Googe voice search does not work. YouTube videos play, but with no sound. I don't think notifications play. Phone calls are silent; no ringing, no voice. It seems they do go through, though.

Everytime I reboot I have to enter my gmail password. Not sure if thats what you guys were talking about though.

No GV here.
Had to re-enter password for Google account upon reboot 3 out of 5 times today. My last 2 reboots did not ask for log in or give me the "Sync error."
Not necessarily. The Moto Droid 2.1 doesn't have 5 screens.
Stock Home on the Eris 2.1 is only 3 screens.

NKT - Any other ways to increase signal strength besides *228? I had my Eris next to my girlfriends Blackberry and I had 1 bar and she had full.

My Gmail notification doesn't vibrate when it is supposed to, and my phone calls vibrate when they aren't supposed to lol. I hope OTA rolls out soon, and that we can still get it lol.
Which option did you do in *228?
Also, check in DEBUG to see if the bars match your actual signal level.
