2 problems :)

(Iphone 3G, 3.1.2, Tmobile, 5.13.04, Itunes 9 )

1. Iphone wont sync properly

Half way through the sync it would give error.... first it was not syncing photos... so I changed the name of the iphone and tried again.. now its syncing photos.. but not contacts...

Everytime I upgrade Firmware or Jailbreak... I always end up losing a lot of contacts

2. Cant assign photos to contacts...

I know the process .. click on photo.. it gives u option "assign to contact"... I did that.. but when i reopen CONTACTS there are no photos next to the contacts...

1. Uninstall iTunes, reboot, re-install iTunes

And if you loose your Contacts after an update and you restore your iPhone w/ the latest iTunes backup you can't very well have them synced via iTunes. Check the Info tab in iTunes while the iPhone is connected, establish how you want the contacts synced.

2. sounds fishy... again, restore and start all over again with a new iPhone
