    I haven't lost any contacts. Might want to back yours up via an online service so you don't loose any. That being said once they are gone they are gone unless you backed up your phone to the pc before they disappeared.

    The weird thing is that if the contact calls it will show up with their name as it is in the phone just hidden

    Download contacts imex from app world
    Export you contacts to SD card in vcf format

    Dowload device switch app from http://www.deviceswitch.com
    Backup contacts to SD card
    Make note of how many contacts were exported

    Open contacts and scroll up all the way til it shows the number of contacts.
    Make note of how many contacts are listed

    Go to settings > accounts
    Tap the overflow menu and "clear local contacts"
    this will take a couple minutes. You'll know the process is finished when PIM cpu usage drops (device monitor)
    Once complete, check contacts app and make note of the amount of contacts.

    Open contacts imex and import your contacts from the backup

    After complete, compare the numbers
    Number of contacts found and exported by deviceswitch app
    Total contacts were original contact list
    Amount of contacts remaining after clearing local contacts
    Amount of contacts after restoring local contacts

    Assuming all goes well, the missing contacts will backup properly and will appear properly upon restoring.
