But you really should ask help on the Gnucash for Android forum, which is not here. The issue starts there in this particular case, and there nothing gnucash on desktop can do about this I'm afraid. CSV import in gnucash 2.6 and before has a very limited scope: it was written solely for importing bank statements and the options to tweak it show this. GnuCash data (like exported from gnucash to CSV) on the other hand has much more detail and the importer has no knowledge of how to interpret this. So in 2.6, a CSV export/import cycle won't work. The upcoming 3.0 will allow this, but for your specific problem it will come a few months too late probably. Good luck solving your issue!
