I came across this post when googling this issue. I had the same problem for weeks. Tried everything including factory reset and nothing worked.
I recently came up with something that might be a solution, and maybe other people can use it. The thing is I'm using several google accounts, some of them not authorized with Inbox app by Google (mu university account). So, after almost giving up, I was looking at all the checks you can have under settings -> accounts -> google account. I figured out I had a different sync check for Inbox and for Gmail. What I thoght is that maybe the 2 apps are causing this contacts sync problems by interfering with each other. I uninstalled the Inbox app (because as I've said, some of my accounts don't work with it). The second I did that all of my contacs came back. Hope that would help someone else. I guess it can also cause this bug by only having the 2 apps installed, and not only by having several accounts.
