Insert a new contact intent
Intent intent = new Intent(
ContactsContract.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT,
Uri.parse("tel:" + phoneNumber));
intent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE, true);
startActivity(intent);
this code might help you.
Finally found a solution, I'm sharing it with you. That's only a fix for Android version above 4.0.3 and sup. It doesn't work on 4.0 to 4.0.2.
i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT);
i.setType(Contacts.CONTENT_TYPE);
if (Integer.valueOf(Build.VERSION.SDK) > 14)
i.putExtra("finishActivityOnSaveCompleted", true); // Fix for 4.0.3 +
startActivityForResult(i, PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST);
You can choose whether you want to add the contact automatically, or open the add contact activity with pre-filled data:
/**
* Open the add-contact screen with pre-filled info
*
* @param context
* Activity context
* @param person
* {@link Person} to add to contacts list
*/
public static void addAsContactConfirmed(final Context context, final Person person) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT);
intent.setType(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_TYPE);
intent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.NAME, person.name);
intent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.PHONE, person.mobile);
intent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.EMAIL, person.email);
context.startActivity(intent);
}
/**
* Automatically add a contact into someone's contacts list
*
* @param context
* Activity context
* @param person
* {@link Person} to add to contacts list
*/
public static void addAsContactAutomatic(final Context context, final Person person) {
String displayName = person.name;
String mobileNumber = person.mobile;
String email = person.email;
ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> ops = new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.RawContacts.CONTENT_URI)
.withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, null)
.withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, null).build());
// Names
if (displayName != null) {
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation
.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI)
.withValueBackReference(ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, 0)
.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE)
.withValue(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME,
displayName).build());
}
// Mobile Number
if (mobileNumber != null) {

.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI)
.withValueBackReference(ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, 0)

}

try {

} catch (Exception e) {

}
Toast.makeText(context, "Contact " + displayName + " added.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
