I don't know if it would work to update the call log on a stock
android version without having a contact. What I do know is that the
HTC Sense devices are buggy and you can't do updates and inserts
properly even if you DO have the contact. That happens not only on the
Desire but all devices with HTC Sense that I've tested so far.
