I use the CardDav feature to sync Nextcloud on a VPS with my Samsung Note 3.
It turns out that Android has a 1000 character limit on each contactsâ Notes field. I just discovered that Iâve lost a ton of data due to this misfeature.
Is there any way to retrieve this data from Nextcloud? Does Nextcloud have a log of contactsâ fields? Or even a general Nextcloud log that might have this data stored somewhere?
Thank you.
Nextcloud doesnât have a âhistoryâ function of contact or calendar data. However, the complete data of your contact notes might still be in the database and you might be able to export the data either via the webinterface of the contacts app within Nextcloud or, if you have shell access to the server, with the script calcardbackup.
Hello, itâs sorry to say that there is no âhistoryâ in Nextclod. But your contacts are still here on your phone, the first thing you should do is to stop using your phone to avoid data overwriting. Then download a third-party tool, here I recommend the Bitwar Android Data Recovery, only if no data is saved on the database, you can still have your contacts back. I hoe it can do something for you, good luck.
