I don't have access to bug 956203 so don't know what is blocking this bug.

IMHO, we shouldn't be really restrictive with android compatible versions, we tried this with android 4.2 and it works, sure we try other versions we will find different approaches.

In our case we decided to support vcard version 4.0, we cannot guarantee that other devices will be 100% compliance with vcard 4.0 so, again IMHO should not block something important.

Thanks!

I tried with Android 4.2.2 phone(Samsung Galaxy S4) and unfortenately it failed. I copied the FxOS vCard (test_ww.vcf) in Android 4.2.2 phone, it failed to import the vcf file. BTW, I exported the Android 4.2.2 vcard (as attached) and it turned out that the vcard version is 2.1.

Thanks,
Eagle
