Honestly, what I would do since your contacts are already syncing to google is wait until WebOSDocotor 1.3.1 comes out and doctor you phone with that image. Or I guess you could just overwrite the database file with the new one from the 1.3.1 doctor. Ultimately, if it is working for you and you aren't worried then I guess you could keep it the way it is. Personally, I would just be a little hesitant.
I think because I transfered it over to a clean phone before patches/tweeks/mods/etc., that it hasn't caused any issues. And I don't want to replace that database file because it has txt message history, the main purpose for saving that file on my computer.
Having the contacts back because of it is just a bonus. Haven't had any issues yet except for one contact that I get txt messages from. i get the notification sound, but her name and text don't show in the txt message list and there isn't a notification at the bottom of the screen. I have to universal search her name then touch the SMS icon next to her name.
Not worth doctoring over though.
