You need to create instance DBHelper in your other activity, and call the method insertContact. Equals existing in example activity.

Yeah, use it the same way you would in your first activity - you open it the same way, and the CRUD operations should be in the same Helper class, so you call them the same way.

But do yourself a favour, and use a library like https://github.com/jgilfelt/android-sqlite-asset-helper to simplify the process for you.
