First, I installed aliendalvik. Then, I deleted three contacts via Sailfish Contacts. Strangely, these contacts remain visible to Android applications. I've tried installing an Android Contacts application and deleted the contacts there, but they reappear instantly. I've tried rebooting, I've tried waiting for a (long) while in case some process needed to catch up, but nothing works, the contacts always reappear. I presume this is a bug. However, in the meantime, is there anywhere I can try directly deleting the Android contacts database? Or is there some kind of intermediate database I can wipe?
This is the case on both a Jolla 1 and Jolla Tablet, on the latest versions with the latest versions of aliendalvik.
