It's pretty much the only issue I have with my N9, can you confirm that the issue *is* in fact being worked on, maybe even fixed in 1.3?

I've got a problem with a Skype contact and birthday display/notifications: The Skype contact has entered a birthday of April 22 (this is the real date) - I can see this date when I'm in edit mode for the contact. But:
In the view mode of the contact, I see the birthday as 21.04.2012.
A notification of the birthday was shown today at noon (today is April 19).
This happens at least for another contact (2012-02-26 is the real birthday, displayed as such in edit mode, with 2012-02-25 in view mode) and doesn't happen for a third contact (2012-02-27 is displayed both in edit and in view mode).
On a side note (not sure if this is related), I've modified the time zone at least two times since the last reboot.

Can't say I've heard of that personally. @frals on twitter might be able to help (or direct you to the right person).
if only had done it before the 3 re-flashes....

I guess that might mean for me (and everyone else syncing MfE contacts over bluetooth) that I'd have to find a non-mfe way of keeping my contacts up-to-date.
Can you poke around and try to find a bit more information about this? Is it only the MfE protocol that restricts synchronising contacts over bluetooth or will I be facing the same problem with any synchronising service?

Thanks very much for picking this thread up! I Have a question...
I regularly get the message '5 contacts merged' on my contacts app with no apparent changes. The merge icon isn't visible on any contact. Is there any way I can find out why this is happening? Any log of the merge procedure anywhere? I think it's coming from mfe, but I can't be sure?

With it being a fairly minor bug in terms of effect (and unfortunately seemingly complicated), I can't promise a fix. I will raise a bug for this internally if I can't find one already open though.
With regards to the birthday notifications, I don't think there's really much funky that goes on there. We just create events and let the event screen display them when it feels like. Presumably, it does that early to give you some advance warning
The plugin for birthday creation is open source, and can be found at: http://gitorious.org/qtcontacts-trac...ugins/birthday if you're curious about how it's put together.

Can you give some more information about what accounts you have on the device? About the contacts that are automerged? etc.
Also, which PR release are you running?

It's been happening since PR1.2. I have lots of IM accounts as well as Facebook, twitter and mfe, and I can't see which contacts are being merged. I tried exporting to vcard to see if I got 5 unusually large files but no luck. Guess I'll live...
