[android-developers] Re: Contacts FAQ?

Developing in the SDK you can use the account type "com.google" - this
will trick the Contacts app into displaying all the fields without
trying to use the broken contact field format Brian hinted at earlier
in this thread. This will of course probably not work in an actual
device where the "com.google" authenticator is already added.
