Is there any easy way to save a contact which has arrived like 

<Subject: PXT> - BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
PRODID blah blah blah

Into the contacts? I believe it happens when someone "shares" a contact with you from iPhone. If there is only the number or email there it is pretty easy to dig the details out of the text message, but if it sends a small profile picture that comes in decoded as a massive text message which is quite annoying. It would be nice to have a way to import that text message into a contact, with the avatar and all.

  • Did you try vCard Manager Lite? The app looks useful but I haven't tested it myself.

  • I tried it now, it's all about sending vCards and doesn't help with receiving them.

This seems to be a bug on the OS (src)

You have to use a third party app for this. vCardIO and bizCard Manager/SMS vCard are good solutions. Former one is preferable and it's free.
