How can i show a pre populated postal address in contacts screen with street , city , zip on android

Question

I am using following code for populating contacts in Android:

Intent addContactIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT);
addContactIntent.setType(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_TYPE);
addContactIntent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.NAME, "Store Name");
addContactIntent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.PHONE, "1-869-270-9099");
addContactIntent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.Insert.POSTAL, "postal address");*

But I also need to populate city, street and zip in postal address. How to populate these fields using the above code? Or any alternate way to do so.

Ok here is what i have done.

                     ArrayList<ContentValues> data = new ArrayList<ContentValues>();
                    //Email
                      ContentValues row1 = new ContentValues();
                      row1.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Email.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
                      row1.put(Email.ADDRESS, "ADDRESSme");
                      data.add(row1);

                    //Website
                      ContentValues row2 = new ContentValues();
                      row2.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Website.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
                      row2.put(Website.URL, "URLme");
                      data.add(row2);

                      //name
                      ContentValues row3 = new ContentValues();
                      row3.put(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
                      row3.put(StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, "NameMe");
                      data.add(row3);

                      //Address
                      ContentValues row4 = new ContentValues();
                      row4.put(Data.MIMETYPE, StructuredPostal.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
                      row4.put(StructuredPostal.CITY, "CityMe");
                      row4.put(StructuredPostal.COUNTRY, "COUNTRYme");
                      row4.put(StructuredPostal.STREET, "STREETme");
                      row4.put(StructuredPostal.POSTCODE, "POSTCODEme");
                      data.add(row4);

                      //Phone 

                      ContentValues row5 = new ContentValues();
                      row5.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
                      row5.put(Phone.NUMBER, "NUMBERme");
                      data.add(row5);

                      Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT, Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
                      i.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Insert.DATA, data);

But one thing i need to remind you is that Insert.DATA is available only from API level 11.So this solution only works for Android 3.0+.

If you guys have any better solution please let me know.
