The Contacts.ContactMethods API is deprecated but not dropped. And even deprecated APIs are required to function properly. Google has to make sure (and even stated it in this forum) that this is the case. It cannot be the idea for applications to check the Android version invoke APIs accordingly via reflection. I don't like to receive complaints from user that my application doesn't work properly on their phone but if Google doesn't ensure that event deprecated APIs, it is not my fault. If many developers (especially of free applications) think likewise user will experience a increasing number of non-working applications in the Android market. But thanks for your reply anyway :-)
