Well, sometimes there are issues with the contacts and WM6-6.1 upgrades.

However, since you did save the pim.vol [smart thinking] you can get your contacts back. What you need to do is flash back to the ROM you were using at the time of the PIM.vol backup, and then restore the pim file. After you have done that, soft reset, then download and run this program: http://www.dotfred.net/

Use the program to backup all your contacts, appointments, tasks, call logs, messages, email etc. and SAVE THE FILE TO THE STORAGE CARD! [I suggest keeping a backup on your computer just in case]

Now, flash to the ROM you are using right now, and then use the same program to restore the pim.

Good luck!
