Well, i'm getting RawContacts for a contact from ContactProvider. Viber, Whatsapp, Skype, Telegram, etc are launching well with 

Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://com.android.contacts/data/" + rawContactId);
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);

But when it comes to Facebook Messenger's RawContacts something goes wrong

E/msgr(:):AbstractIntentHandlerActivity: Future failed for intent Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=content://com.android.contacts/data/21839 flg=0x10800000 cmp=com.facebook.orca/com.facebook.messenger.intents.IntentHandlerActivity }. Waiting for result: false.

Does anybody know why standard contact-view Intent doesn't work well and is there elegant solution for this situation?

Standard Android Contacts application handles this situation well.

According to standard Android Contacts application source code, mimetype should be passed to Intent.

Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://com.android.contacts/data/" + rawContactId);
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setDataAndType(uri, rawContactMimetype);

And facebook messengers starts correctly
