ContactSync is an Android app which allows you to sync your Android contacts with CardDAV, FTP, HTTP, WebDAV servers or local files (stored on the device or e.g. as a mail attachment). There are also a lot of additional features available. All this can also be done independent from the Google services.
This version of the app is available for free and you can use it to test all features of the paid app. All features can be used without any limitations but this test app will only be useable for two week. If you want to use all the features forever then you can here get the cheap pro version of the app => https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vcard.android
