Z-Push: Calendar works, but failing to successfully syncronize contacts

[Johannes Graumann]

More information here,

I create another user and gave it access to the shared contact folder - as 
thi suser has no email the bit about folder convolution dissapears. After 
generating a MfE account on the N9 (set to solely sync contacts), the first 
sync adds a batch of 50 contacts to then proceed for an eternity before 
failing. Restartin the sync does not transfer any more contacts.

Before ultimately failing the first (partially successful) sync produces a 
myriad debug-entries like the ones below ...

Any more hints?

Sincerely Joh
