After the 5.1 upgrade I have contacts missing but they are still showing on my Google account. How can I restore them to my phone?

5.1 upgrade: Contacts missing, still showing on my google account

Upgraded to 5.1 (Cataclysm) and all seems to be working fine except all of my contacts are now missing. At first I attempted to import from sim card and from vcard data. Nothing.

After checking the "contacts to display" menu and under custom, all contacts only includes only my exchange email. There is no option for me to add in my google contacts. Luckily, when I head to google.com/contacts they are all there.

Aside from a system restore, is there a way for me to get my google contacts back on my phone?

Go to Accounts, then to your Google account. (If it's not there, add it.) If Contacts sync is enabled, disable it, then enable it and it'll sync. If it's disablled just enable it.
