"data1025" thanks for your response. I could not restore the contacts from previous DM as I explained above:

"Databases that are unvailable in the list have been configured for wireless sync or wireless backup and are read-only. you can not restore or clear them"

After a few days lost of sleep, I managed to solve it. Heres is how:
- Wipe the BB
- Upgrade to newer version of OS
- I did NOT restore all BUT using ADVANCE OPTIONS to just restore the contacts portion only

I found out that many of my friends experiance the same headache...we all feel soo VERY dissapointed to lose a few productive days for this VERY UNRELIABLE sync features and yet offer in the email setting... On top of that I could NOT find anyhelp anywhere... I sincerely hope Gmail or RIM dedicated some time to fix it.. *sigh*
