NullPointerException on CustomContact insert

The code:

        ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> operationList = new ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation>();

        // Create raw contact
        Builder builder = ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI);
        builder.withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, "testaccount");
        builder.withValue(RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, "nl.my.project.account");
        builder.withValue(RawContacts.SYNC1, "username"); 
        operationList.add(builder.build());

        builder = ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI);
        builder.withValueBackReference(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.RAW_CONTACT_ID, 0);
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME, "name"); 
        operationList.add(builder.build());

        builder = ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI);
        builder.withValueBackReference(ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, 0);
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE, "vnd.android.cursor.item/vnd.nl.my.project.profile");
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.DATA1, "username");
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.DATA2, "Profile");
        builder.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.DATA3, "View profile");
        operationList.add(builder.build());

        try {
            getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, operationList);
        } catch (RemoteException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (OperationApplicationException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

contacts.xml:

<ContactsSource xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <ContactsDataKind
        android:icon="@drawable/icon"
        android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/vnd.nl.my.project.profile"
        android:summaryColumn="data2"
        android:detailColumn="data3"
        android:detailSocialSummary="true" />
</ContactsSource>

Changing:

Builder builder = ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI);

To:

Builder builder = ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.RawContacts.CONTENT_URI);

Seems to fix the NullPointerException.

try working like this

ArrayList ops = new ArrayList(); ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(ContactsContract.RawContacts.CONTENT_URI) .withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, null) .withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, null) .build());
