I have made some experiments here and found that this labels google/
phone are not about grouping - there is undocumented "type" column in
the People table which seems to be responcible for this.
The following code:
final Cursor pcur = context.managedQuery(Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI,
null, null, null, null);
while (pcur.moveToNext()) {
Log.d("#############",
"**************************************");
for (int i = 0; i < pcur.getColumnCount(); i++) {
Log.d("#############", pcur.getColumnName(i) +
"="
+ pcur.getString(i));
}
}
pcur.close();
Prints the following:

the "type" column value is '0' for contacts with "google label" and
'2' for contacts with "phone" label.
This could be fine - just set "type" column value to '2' when add
contact and it should appear with "phone" label in contact book:
public static final String CONTACT_TYPE = "type";
public static final int CONTACT_TYPE_GOOGLE = 0;
public static final int CONTACT_TYPE_PHONE = 2;
final ContentValues peopleValues = new ContentValues();
peopleValues.put(CONTACT_TYPE, CONTACT_TYPE_PHONE);
final Uri personUri = context.getContentResolver().insert(
Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI, peopleValues);
final long contactId = ContentUris.parseId(personUri);
Contacts.People.addToMyContactsGroup(context.getContentResolver(),
contactId);
but this code gives me the following exception:

What is wrong here?
