I have found the answer at How do I add contact to a group on Android? to Pentium10

public Uri addToGroup(long personId, long groupId) {

        //remove if exists
    //    this.removeFromGroup(personId, groupId);

        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
        values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.RAW_CONTACT_ID,
                personId);
        values.put(
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.GROUP_ROW_ID,
                groupId);
        values
                .put(
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.MIMETYPE,
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);

        return this.ctx.getContentResolver().insert(
                ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, values);

    }

you could simply point to the answer in comments instead of posting that as you own answer. — vishal dharankar, Sep 01 '15 at 06:23
