cant get contacts data from htc(4.3.1) android

I am not able to find any appropriate solution for below issue. I have some method which return contact names and phone numbers from phone, and it works on lots of devices.
But, problem is this method does not work on my htc(android 4.3.1). I think, maybe main cause is on line of declaration of cursor(Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);), because I checked Cursor object by getCount method and it showed me a zero, which means it could not get any data. I tried many ways of declaring Cursor object, but I didn't succeed.
thanks in advance! Please check Code mentioned below:
private List<String> getContactNames() {
List<String> contacts = new ArrayList<>();
// Get the ContentResolver
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
// Get the Cursor of all the contacts
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String name = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
String phoneNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
phoneNumber = phoneNumber.replaceAll("[()+]", "");
phoneNumber = phoneNumber.replaceAll(" ", "");
if (phoneNumber.startsWith("8")) {
phoneNumber = phoneNumber.replaceFirst("8", "7");
}
//contactNames.add(phoneNumber);
contacts.add(name + "&&" + phoneNumber);
}
phones.close();
Collections.sort(contacts, String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER);
List<String> contactList =
new ArrayList<>(new LinkedHashSet<String>(contacts));
for (int i = 0; i < contactList.size(); i++) {
String tem = contactList.get(i);
String[] arr = tem.split("&&");
contactNumbers.add(arr[1]);
contactNames.add(arr[0]);
}
//Toast.makeText(this, contactNames.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
return contactList;
}

Use this.
public class ContactsProvider {
private Uri QUERY_URI = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI;
private String CONTACT_ID = ContactsContract.Contacts._ID;
private String DISPLAY_NAME = ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME;
private Uri EMAIL_CONTENT_URI = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI;
private String EMAIL_CONTACT_ID = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID;
private String EMAIL_DATA = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA;
private String HAS_PHONE_NUMBER = ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER;
private String PHONE_NUMBER = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER;
private Uri PHONE_CONTENT_URI = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
private String PHONE_CONTACT_ID = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID;
private String STARRED_CONTACT = ContactsContract.Contacts.STARRED;
private ContentResolver contentResolver;
public ContactsProvider() {
contentResolver = GenericApplication.getContext().getContentResolver();
}
public List<Contact> getContacts() {
List<Contact> contactList = new ArrayList<Contact>();
String[] projection = new String[]{CONTACT_ID, DISPLAY_NAME, HAS_PHONE_NUMBER, STARRED_CONTACT};
String selection = null;
Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(QUERY_URI, projection, selection, null, null);
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
Contact contact = getContact(cursor);
contactList.add(contact);
}
cursor.close();
return contactList;
}
private Contact getContact(Cursor cursor) {
String contactId = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(CONTACT_ID));
String name = (cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DISPLAY_NAME)));
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(QUERY_URI, String.valueOf(contactId));
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(uri);
String intentUriString = intent.toUri(0);
Contact contact = new Contact();
contact.id = Integer.valueOf(contactId);
contact.name = name;
contact.uriString = intentUriString;
getPhone(cursor, contactId, contact);
getEmail(contactId, contact);
return contact;
}
private void getEmail(String contactId, Contact contact) {
Cursor emailCursor = contentResolver.query(EMAIL_CONTENT_URI, null, EMAIL_CONTACT_ID + " = ?", new String[]{contactId}, null);
while (emailCursor.moveToNext()) {
String email = emailCursor.getString(emailCursor.getColumnIndex(EMAIL_DATA));
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(email)) {
contact.email = email;
}
}
emailCursor.close();
}
private void getPhone(Cursor cursor, String contactId, Contact contact) {
int hasPhoneNumber = Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(HAS_PHONE_NUMBER)));
if (hasPhoneNumber > 0) {
Cursor phoneCursor = contentResolver.query(PHONE_CONTENT_URI, null, PHONE_CONTACT_ID + " = ?", new String[]{contactId}, null);
while (phoneCursor.moveToNext()) {
String phoneNumber = phoneCursor.getString(phoneCursor.getColumnIndex(PHONE_NUMBER));
contact.phone = phoneNumber;
}
phoneCursor.close();
}
}
}

Use this method:
private void LoadContactsWithPhone() {
TextView contactView = (TextView) getView().findViewById(R.id.txtContacts);
contactView.setText("");
Cursor cursor = getContactsWithPhone();
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String displayName = cursor.getString(cursor
.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME));
String phoneNo = cursor.getString(cursor
.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
contactView.append("Name: ");
contactView.append(displayName);
contactView.append("\n");
contactView.append("Phone: ");
contactView.append(phoneNo);
contactView.append("\n\n");
}
}
private Cursor getContactsWithPhone() {
Uri uri = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
String[] projection = new String[]{ContactsContract.Contacts._ID,
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER
};
String selection = ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER + " = ?";
String[] selectionArgs = new String[]{String.valueOf(1)};
String sortOrder = ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME + " COLLATE LOCALIZED ASC";
return getActivity().getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs, sortOrder);
}

Sorry guys, main cause was the device itself, I checked other similar applications that use the device contacts as whatsapp, and these applications are also unable to use the phone's contacts. All answers are presented here work perfectly , as good as my method.

Please used the following code its working on my end on all devices:-
public ArrayList<Contact_Model> getContacts(){
ArrayList<Contact_Model> contact_models = new ArrayList<>();
// ContentResolver cr = context.getActivity().getContentResolver();
ContentProviderClient mCProviderClient = context.getActivity().getContentResolver().acquireContentProviderClient(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
Cursor cur = mCProviderClient.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
if (cur.getCount() > 0) {
while (cur.moveToNext()) {
Contact_Model contact_model = new Contact_Model();
String id = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String name = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
String firstname;
String lastName = "";
if (name != null) {
contact_model.setContactId(id);
contact_model.setContactName(name);
if (Integer.parseInt(cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER))) > 0) {
// get the phone number
Cursor pCur = mCProviderClient.query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
new String[]{id}, null);
while (pCur.moveToNext()) {
String phone = pCur.getString(
pCur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
contact_model.setContactNumber(phone);
}
pCur.close();
// get email and type
Cursor emailCur = mCProviderClient.query(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
new String[]{id}, null);
while (emailCur.moveToNext()) {
// This would allow you get several email addresses

contact_model.setContactEmail(email);
}
emailCur.close();

String note = noteCur.getString(noteCur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Note.NOTE));
System.out.println("Note " + note);
contact_model.setNote(note);
}
noteCur.close();
// Get Organizations.........
String orgWhere = ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_ID + " = ? AND " + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + " = ?";
String[] orgWhereParams = new String[]{id,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Organization.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE};
Cursor orgCur = mCProviderClient.query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI,
null, orgWhere, orgWhereParams, null);
if (orgCur.moveToFirst()) {
String orgName = orgCur.getString(orgCur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Organization.DATA));
String title = orgCur.getString(orgCur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Organization.TITLE));
if (orgName != null) {

android fetch contact information returns null pointer exception

In my android code
I want to fetch contact's name,email and phone number as as json and then want to display.
Here is my code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public TextView outputText;
String[] phoneNumber;
String[] email;

error found in below line of code:

Here I am storing phonenumber and email as array.Is there array initialization problem ?? any idea guys?

You can use these approach to finds the contact from contact list
class FetchDeviceContact extends AsyncTask<Void, Integer, String>
{
protected void onPreExecute (){
Constant.showProgressDialog(AddDeviceContactScreeen.this);
}
protected String doInBackground(Void...arg0) {
arrayList.clear();
ContentResolver cr = AddDeviceContactScreeen.this.getContentResolver();
Cursor cur = AddDeviceContactScreeen.this.getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
while (cur.moveToNext()) {
String id = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Data._ID));
String name = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME));
String photoUri = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Data.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI));
Bitmap my_btmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.ic_arrow_up_blue);
String email = null;
String phoneNo = null;
Cursor phonecur = AddDeviceContactScreeen.this.getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
new String[]{id}, null);
if (photoUri != null) {
Uri my_contact_Uri = Uri.parse(photoUri);
try {
my_btmp = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(AddDeviceContactScreeen.this.getContentResolver(), my_contact_Uri);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (phonecur.getCount() > 0) {
while (phonecur.moveToNext()) {
phoneNo = phonecur.getString(phonecur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
}
Cursor emailCur = cr.query(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI, null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
new String[]{id}, null);
while (emailCur.moveToNext()) {
// to get the contact names
// = cur1.getString(cur1.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA)
email = emailCur.getString(emailCur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA));
if (email != null) {
System.out.println("Email============== :" + email);
}
}
emailCur.close();
ContactBean bean = new ContactBean();
bean.setName(name);
bean.setEmail(email);
bean.setImage(my_btmp);
bean.setPhone_number(phoneNo);
if (phoneNo == null || email == null) {
} else {
arrayList.add(bean);
}
}
return "";
}
protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer...a){
}
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
Constant.cancelDialog();
}
}
new FetchDeviceContact().execute();
Create the getter and setter class for it:-
public class ContactBean {
String name;
String email;
Bitmap image;
String phone_number;
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
public Bitmap getImage() {
return image;
}
public void setImage(Bitmap image) {
this.image = image;
}
public String getPhone_number() {
return phone_number;
}
public void setPhone_number(String phone_number) {
this.phone_number = phone_number;
}
}

I think you should fix :
if (phoneCursor.movetoFirst()){
while (!phoneCursor.isAfterLast()) {
phoneNumber[p] = phoneCursor.getString(phoneCursor.getColumnIndex(NUMBER));
p++;
phoneCursor.movetoNext();
}
}

Here:
phoneNumber[p] = phoneCursor.getString(phoneCursor.getColumnIndex(NUMBER));
NullPointerException caused because phoneNumber is null and not initialized.
Use Cursor. getCount() to initialize it as:
phoneNumber = new String[phoneCursor.getCount()];
phoneCursor.moveToFirst();
while (phoneCursor.moveToNext()) {
//..your code here..
}

ContactNames.add(contactNames);
break;
}
pCur.close();
}

Android Development Find Contact [duplicate]

I'm working on Android 2.0 and am trying to receive a list of all contacts.
Since android.provider.Contacts.People is deprecated, I have to use android.provider.ContactsContract, But I can't find a proper example of how to use it (ex: retrieve a list of all contacts on the phonebook).
Anyone knows where to find such an example?

First, ensure that you have added
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"/>
to your AndroidManifest.xml file, then you can loop through your phone contacts like this:
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,null, null, null, null);
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String contactId = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(
ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String hasPhone = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
if (Boolean.parseBoolean(hasPhone)) {
// You know it has a number so now query it like this
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query( ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID +" = "+ contactId, null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String phoneNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex( ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
phones.close();
}
Cursor emails = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID + " = " + contactId, null, null);
while (emails.moveToNext()) {
// This would allow you get several email addresses
String emailAddress = emails.getString(
emails.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA));
}
emails.close();
}
cursor.close();
Additionally, you can loop through your contacts and simply get the name and phone number like this:
Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
while(people.moveToNext()) {
int nameFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME);
String contact = people.getString(nameFieldColumnIndex);
int numberFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(PhoneLookup.NUMBER);
String number = people.getString(numberFieldColumnIndex);
}
people.close();
Furthermore, if you need to get things like notes from a contact then you will need to use a different URI, like the following (feel free to use this method):
private String getNote(long contactId) {
String note = null;
String[] columns = new String[] { ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Note.NOTE };
String where = ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID + " = ? AND " + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + " = ?";
String[] whereParameters = new String[]{Long.toString(contactId), ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Note.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE};
Cursor contacts = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, projection, where, whereParameters, null);
if (contacts.moveToFirst()) {
rv = contacts.getString(0);
}
contacts.close();
return note;
}
Notice this time I used not only the contact id but the mime type for the query.

Great to see some useful info, it is frustrating how poorly this important topic is covered by docs and such. After too much hacking about I thought I would share a little code also. The following code is a little prettier and get the same thing done more efficiently.
Uri contactUri = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI;
String[] PROJECTION = new String[] {
ContactsContract.Contacts._ID,
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER,
};
String SELECTION = ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER + "='1'";
Cursor contacts = managedQuery(contactUri, PROJECTION, SELECTION, null, null );
The above chunk of code returns a Cursor that points to the resulting query that only contains those rows that have a phone number. This is nice since you typically have many contacts without numbers. Furthermore, the PROJECTION limits the amount of data that is returned.
String key, value, phoneNumber;
Hashtable contactPhoneInfo = new Hashtable<String, String>();
Uri phoneUri = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
String [] PHONES_PROJECTION = new String[] { ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER };
String PHONE_SELECTION = null;
contacts.moveToFirst();
do{
long contactId = contacts.getLong(idColumnIndex);
PHONE_SELECTION = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=" + contactId;
Cursor phones = managedQuery(phoneUri,
PHONES_PROJECTION,
null,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY + " DESC");
phones.moveToFirst();
key = phones.getString(0).replaceAll("\\D", "");
value = contacts.getString(nameColumnIndex);
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}while(contacts.moveToNext());
contacts.close();
}
The above chunk gets the phone number associated with each contact id that has a phone number. I store all the info in a hash table and with a key value of the phone number. I stripped the phone number of all none digit info also. For some reason even though ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER is valid if you include that in the projection argument it breaks the query, I don't know why and it is frustrating that it does.
The second part of the code above is too slow, all the query calls just bog everything down. The following code is much faster. Just grab all the rows for the phone content and use the contact_ids to sort the data you want.
Cursor phones = managedQuery(phoneUri,
PHONES_PROJECTION,
PHONE_SELECTION,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY + " DESC");
contacts.moveToFirst();
do{
value = "";
key = contacts.getString(idColumnIndex);
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}while(contacts.moveToNext());
phones.moveToFirst();
Set keySet = contactPhoneInfo.keySet();
idColumnIndex = phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID);
int numColumnIndex = phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
do{
key = phones.getString(idColumnIndex);
if(keySet.contains(key)){
value = phones.getString(numColumnIndex).replaceAll("\\D", "");
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}
}while(phones.moveToNext());
You end up with a hashtable with all the info you want in it. Of course you could put whatever info you want into the data structure. The second way of doing it is much much faster.

Just want to add, when you are retrieving the contacts you might get a lot of "garbage" contacts - for example some email addresses that a user has at some point send an email to, but are not aggregated... If you want only the contacts visible to the user, as in the Androids own contacts application you need to restrict the selection to only IN_VISIBLE_GROUP.
String where = ContactsContract.Contacts.IN_VISIBLE_GROUP + "= ? ";
String[] selectionArgs = new String[] { "1" };

I think it is important to have the code from this URL http://coderzheaven.com/2011/06/get-all-details-from-contacts-in-android/ on StackOverflow cause at times links like that go down.

I found very easy solution to read contacts. (boring to write code for reading each value so it's good to use wrapper class for contacts)

Put this ....
Cursor phones =
getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,null,null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext())
{
String Name=phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
String Number=phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
Let me know if any issue.

This part wouldn't work for me:
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String phoneNumber = phones.getString(
phones.getColumnIndex(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
If I use this, though, it does:
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String pdata = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DATA));
Log.v("DATA",pdata);
}

You can use "ContactManager" example from android developer's site
(OR)
Go to the location where you have set the path to download android-sdk in your system. In android-sdk-mac_x86/samples/android-10 folder, you can see "ContactManager" example.
I have tried using this example, worked well in my application.

I'm using Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and I donno why none of the above worked for me.
I mixed up some and made this woking..

How to read contacts on Android 2.0

I'm working on Android 2.0 and am trying to receive a list of all contacts.
Since android.provider.Contacts.People is deprecated, I have to use android.provider.ContactsContract, But I can't find a proper example of how to use it (ex: retrieve a list of all contacts on the phonebook).
Anyone knows where to find such an example?

First, ensure that you have added
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"/>
to your AndroidManifest.xml file, then you can loop through your phone contacts like this:
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,null, null, null, null);
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String contactId = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(
ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String hasPhone = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
if (Boolean.parseBoolean(hasPhone)) {
// You know it has a number so now query it like this
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query( ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID +" = "+ contactId, null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String phoneNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex( ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
phones.close();
}
Cursor emails = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID + " = " + contactId, null, null);
while (emails.moveToNext()) {
// This would allow you get several email addresses
String emailAddress = emails.getString(
emails.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA));
}
emails.close();
}
cursor.close();
Additionally, you can loop through your contacts and simply get the name and phone number like this:
Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
while(people.moveToNext()) {
int nameFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME);
String contact = people.getString(nameFieldColumnIndex);
int numberFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(PhoneLookup.NUMBER);
String number = people.getString(numberFieldColumnIndex);
}
people.close();
Furthermore, if you need to get things like notes from a contact then you will need to use a different URI, like the following (feel free to use this method):
private String getNote(long contactId) {
String note = null;
String[] columns = new String[] { ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Note.NOTE };
String where = ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID + " = ? AND " + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + " = ?";
String[] whereParameters = new String[]{Long.toString(contactId), ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Note.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE};
Cursor contacts = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, projection, where, whereParameters, null);
if (contacts.moveToFirst()) {
rv = contacts.getString(0);
}
contacts.close();
return note;
}
Notice this time I used not only the contact id but the mime type for the query.

Great to see some useful info, it is frustrating how poorly this important topic is covered by docs and such. After too much hacking about I thought I would share a little code also. The following code is a little prettier and get the same thing done more efficiently.
Uri contactUri = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI;
String[] PROJECTION = new String[] {
ContactsContract.Contacts._ID,
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER,
};
String SELECTION = ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER + "='1'";
Cursor contacts = managedQuery(contactUri, PROJECTION, SELECTION, null, null );
The above chunk of code returns a Cursor that points to the resulting query that only contains those rows that have a phone number. This is nice since you typically have many contacts without numbers. Furthermore, the PROJECTION limits the amount of data that is returned.
String key, value, phoneNumber;
Hashtable contactPhoneInfo = new Hashtable<String, String>();
Uri phoneUri = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
String [] PHONES_PROJECTION = new String[] { ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER };
String PHONE_SELECTION = null;
contacts.moveToFirst();
do{
long contactId = contacts.getLong(idColumnIndex);
PHONE_SELECTION = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=" + contactId;
Cursor phones = managedQuery(phoneUri,
PHONES_PROJECTION,
null,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY + " DESC");
phones.moveToFirst();
key = phones.getString(0).replaceAll("\\D", "");
value = contacts.getString(nameColumnIndex);
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}while(contacts.moveToNext());
contacts.close();
}
The above chunk gets the phone number associated with each contact id that has a phone number. I store all the info in a hash table and with a key value of the phone number. I stripped the phone number of all none digit info also. For some reason even though ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER is valid if you include that in the projection argument it breaks the query, I don't know why and it is frustrating that it does.
The second part of the code above is too slow, all the query calls just bog everything down. The following code is much faster. Just grab all the rows for the phone content and use the contact_ids to sort the data you want.
Cursor phones = managedQuery(phoneUri,
PHONES_PROJECTION,
PHONE_SELECTION,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY + " DESC");
contacts.moveToFirst();
do{
value = "";
key = contacts.getString(idColumnIndex);
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}while(contacts.moveToNext());
phones.moveToFirst();
Set keySet = contactPhoneInfo.keySet();
idColumnIndex = phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID);
int numColumnIndex = phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
do{
key = phones.getString(idColumnIndex);
if(keySet.contains(key)){
value = phones.getString(numColumnIndex).replaceAll("\\D", "");
contactPhoneInfo.put(key, value);
}
}while(phones.moveToNext());
You end up with a hashtable with all the info you want in it. Of course you could put whatever info you want into the data structure. The second way of doing it is much much faster.

Just want to add, when you are retrieving the contacts you might get a lot of "garbage" contacts - for example some email addresses that a user has at some point send an email to, but are not aggregated... If you want only the contacts visible to the user, as in the Androids own contacts application you need to restrict the selection to only IN_VISIBLE_GROUP.
String where = ContactsContract.Contacts.IN_VISIBLE_GROUP + "= ? ";
String[] selectionArgs = new String[] { "1" };

I think it is important to have the code from this URL http://coderzheaven.com/2011/06/get-all-details-from-contacts-in-android/ on StackOverflow cause at times links like that go down.

Put this ....
Cursor phones =
getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,null,null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext())
{
String Name=phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
String Number=phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
Let me know if any issue.

This part wouldn't work for me:
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String phoneNumber = phones.getString(
phones.getColumnIndex(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
If I use this, though, it does:
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
String pdata = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DATA));
Log.v("DATA",pdata);
}

You can use "ContactManager" example from android developer's site
(OR)
Go to the location where you have set the path to download android-sdk in your system. In android-sdk-mac_x86/samples/android-10 folder, you can see "ContactManager" example.
I have tried using this example, worked well in my application.

I'm using Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and I donno why none of the above worked for me.
I mixed up some and made this woking..
Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
people.moveToFirst();
while(people.moveToNext()) {
int nameFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
String contact = people.getString(nameFieldColumnIndex);
int numberFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DATA);
String number = people.getString(numberFieldColumnIndex);
dbWriter.execSQL("Insert Into ContactsList (ContactName, ContactNumber) Values (" +
"'" + contact.replace("'", "''") + "', '" + number.replace("'", "''") + "')");
}
people.close();
