There is no way you could directly use it in phonegap first you should find how to do this in each platform(ios,android,..) then with phonegap-plugins you could integrate them in your app easily. be aware that this solution is platform base tip: what you are doing is against apple legal Agreement and you will rejected from apple app store if you use that in your application .

Try this document

https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-contacts/index.html#navigatorcontactspickcontact

This code 100% work fine

function onDeviceReady() {
    // Now safe to use device APIs
    window.addEventListener("batterystatus", onBatteryStatus, false);

    $("#contact").click(function () {
        navigator.contacts.pickContact(function (contact) {

            console.log('The following contact has been selected:' + JSON.stringify(contact));
            $("#contact_details").html('The following contact has been selected:' + JSON.stringify(contact.phoneNumbers));

        }, function (err) {
            console.log('Error: ' + err);
        });
    });

}
