I've been using this to create new contacts in a standard XMPP server (can't tell about gtalk):

  Roster roster = xmppConnection.getRoster();
  // jid: String, user: String, groups: String[]
  roster.createEntry(jid, user, groups);

You'll probably want to listen for inbound subscription requests as well, since when you subscribe to someone, they often subscribe back.

In XMPP, adding is adding to your roster + subscribing to the user. Updating is just adding the user to your roster. Keep in mind the minutiae.
