Contact not updating

[nishin-login2]

I have given both read, write contact permissions in manifest file. I could fetch contacts and display it in a list. But updating a contact is not working. Below is my code.

import 'package:contacts_service/contacts_service.dart';

...

_buildContactList() {
    final contactList = await ContactsService.getContacts().toList();
    return ListView.builder(
        itemCount: contactList.length,
        shrinkWrap: true,
        itemBuilder: (context, index) {
          final Contact item = contactList.elementAt(index);
          return ListTile(
            title: Text(item.displayName),
            onLongPress: () async{
              item.displayName = "Modified ${item.displayName}";
              final result = await ContactsService.updateContact(item);
              print(result); // prints "null"
            },
          );
        });
  }

What am I doing wrong?

Yes It still has the same behaviour, try it in real devices and you'll see. In emulators it works well, but on real devices it erases the phone number

I have seen that the pattern of contacts that cannot be modified have a link to the icloud or to another platform, for this reason it is impossible to modify it .. A contact normally stored in the cell phone if it can be modified. Is there a way to detect if the contact is synchronized or saved normally?
