I have the very same: I have added phone numbers to contacts, and they disappear, and I have removed phone numbers from contacts, and they disappear. Rebooting the phone did not help. Also saving/accepting/touching cancel-timer does not seem to change the behavior.

This is now first major problem with Jolla, endangering its useability. I remember having seen this sometimes earlier, but then the problem just went away, and sometimes later the removed information just had gone. But now it looks like I can't force the changes anymore. Perhaps I will need to copy the data manually, and totally remove the contact, and rewrite them?

* EDIT: This may be connected to to other reports on contact being on the SIM card. I have no visibility to where the contacts might be, and no easy way to control them. I can't even make sure if this is the problem. But if they would be on the SIM, it might cover this thread problem as well.

if u delete unwanted contacts from your google account first you will be able to delete them from your device:

Log in to your gmail. *Click the 'Gmail' above the compose icon and select 'contacts'. *You will then find all your contacts, scroll and delete individually by pressing the elipsees on the right of the screen and then pressing delete. *To select more that one click on the avatar to the left of the contact name and a tick should appear.

Problem still exists in 3.2.0.12. If I delete a contact, it appears after some time and the contact is not deleted from Google sync.
