Do you use CardDavMATE on the server or do you use any other client?
Yes, albeit not on the server (the DAViCal server is a separate system).
Notes should sync well.
Well, as far as I can tell, they don't. None of the contacts on the tablet show notes. Notes enteren on the tablet do not appear in CardDavMATE.
Does it matter that the contacts database was originally created and maintained using the free version of CardDAVsync (that synchs less fields)?
By "custom fields" do you mean labels of phone numbers and email addresses? Or do you mean real custom fields with custom content?
Yes, real "X-Foo" fields.
To overcome the address field issue you might want to try an alternative editor app like "Contact editor free" or "Contact Editor Pro". They use a structured editor instead, which means you enter all values into separate fields.
I'll give these a try, but I'm afraid this is still not the 'better contacts app' I'm looking for...
Is it possible to scratch the contacts db on Android and load it completely from the DAViCal server?
