contacts sync with my own application like skype or whatsapp
android, java, synchronization
Solution
Please refer to the android.provider.`ContactsContract class`. Since it is very broad, I recommend you to first take a look at the SDK description of ContactsContract.RawContact. There you will find description with code snippets for basic operation on Contacts.
Also, take a look at the Android SDK code examples:
Android Sample - ContactOperations
