I have this code that has one button that let's me choose an entry from contacts, and passes that choesn contact to onActivityResult function. My question is how do I select data of that single contact when all that is passed is an Intent in data variable. That data variable, if converted to string shows something like "dat: content://contacts/people/4" so I see that selected contact is somehow passed, but what now? How to get that data?
And also all I found by googling was examples with deprecated class People, so I don't know how too use new classes.
public class HelloAndroid extends Activity {
private static final int CONTACT_ACTIVITY = 100;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
final Button contactButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.pick_contact_button);
contactButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://contacts/people");
Intent contacts_intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, uri);
startActivityForResult(contacts_intent, CONTACT_ACTIVITY);
}
});
}
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data){
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch(requestCode){
case(CONTACT_ACTIVITY): {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
alertText(data.toString());
}
break;
}
}
}
}
This will get the cursor holding base contact data, and will loop through the phone numbers the contact has, can have multiple.
Uri uri = (Uri)data.toString();
Cursor cursor=ctx.getContentResolver().query(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 have the 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();
}
}

I need to ask a user for a contact number to make a call. On Button Click the User should be directly redirected to Contacts Book and the user can select a Phone Number. Following is the Source Code what I am using now.
Button buttonReadContact;
TextView textPhone;
final int RQS_PICKCONTACT = 1;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
buttonReadContact = (Button)findViewById(R.id.readcontact);
textPhone = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.phone);
buttonReadContact.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
//Start activity to get contact
final Uri uriContact = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI;
Intent intentPickContact = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, uriContact);
startActivityForResult(intentPickContact, RQS_PICKCONTACT);
}});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
if(requestCode == RQS_PICKCONTACT){
Uri returnUri = data.getData();
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(returnUri, null, null, null, null);
if(cursor.moveToNext()){
int columnIndex_ID = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID);
String contactID = cursor.getString(columnIndex_ID);
int columnIndex_HASPHONENUMBER = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER);
String stringHasPhoneNumber = cursor.getString(columnIndex_HASPHONENUMBER);
if(stringHasPhoneNumber.equalsIgnoreCase("1")){
Cursor cursorNum = getContentResolver().query(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=" + contactID,
null,
null);
//Get the first phone number
if(cursorNum.moveToNext()){
int columnIndex_number = cursorNum.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
String stringNumber = cursorNum.getString(columnIndex_number);
textPhone.setText(stringNumber);
}
}else{
textPhone.setText("NO Phone Number");
}
}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "NO data!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
}
But now the issue is I can only select one number from a contact which is having multiple Phone Numbers saved.
I need to do this as in Skype Application. When the User select a contact which is having multiple contacts, from the Contacts Book itself it should ask the User to choose the number. Please help me to do it.
I used this code to open the Contacts and allow the user to select a single contact, then parse the result to display the contact name, phone number and thumbnail photo. In the example below, the members mName, mPhoneNumber, and mContactImage are already defined.
mButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Start an activity to pick a single contact (ACTION_PICK)
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
// Show only contacts with phone numbers
intent.setType(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_TYPE);
// Start the Contacts activity
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
}
});
Parse the results in onActivityResult().
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (requestCode) {
case PICK_CONTACT :
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
String[] projection = {ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI};
Cursor c = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contactData, projection, null, null, null);
c.moveToFirst();
int nameIdx = c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
int phoneNumberIdx = c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
int photoIdx = c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI);
String name = c.getString(nameIdx);
String phoneNumber = c.getString(phoneNumberIdx);
String photo = c.getString(photoIdx);
if (photo == null) {
// If no photo then substitute a dummy image
mContactImage.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_contact_picture);
} else {
// Display the contact photo
final Uri imageUri = Uri.parse(photo);
mContactImage.setImageURI(imageUri);
}
if (name == null) {
name = "No Name";
}
mName.setText(name);
mPhoneNumber.setText(phoneNumber);
c.close();
// Now you have the phone number
}
break;
}
}
I think this answers your question.
I am having problem getting the number of contact that i have selected. In my app I call the built in application for contacts as a new activity, when you choose a contact the activity returns his name, now I need it to return all the numbers that the user entered for that contact. I found the code in some tutorial on the internet... Here is the code
This is how i call the contact activity
mSuspectButton = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.crime_suspect);
mSuspectButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, REQUEST_CONTACT);
}
});
This is how i get the name of the selected contact:
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode != Activity.RESULT_OK)
return;
if (requestCode == REQUEST_CONTACT) {
Uri contactUri = data.getData();
// Specify which fields you want your query to return
// values for.
String[] queryFields = new String[] {
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME };
// Perform your query - the contactUri is like a "where"
// clause here
Cursor c = getActivity().getContentResolver().query(contactUri,
queryFields, null, null, null);
// Double-check that you actually got results
if (c.getCount() == 0) {
c.close();
return;
}
// Pull out the first column of the first row of data -
// that is your suspect's name.
c.moveToFirst();
String suspect = c.getString(0);
mCrime.setSuspect(suspect);
mSuspectButton.setText(suspect);
c.close();
}
}
So please can anyone help, I really don't understand how these works?
Use this in your onActivityResult, this will return you the selected number
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data){
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch(reqCode){
case (PICK_CONTACT):
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()){
String id = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String hasPhone =
c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
if (hasPhone.equalsIgnoreCase("1")) {
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID +" = "+ id,null, null);
phones.moveToFirst();
String cNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
}
}
}
}
1) Write this code to fetch all contact numbers and names.
2) Add them in separate arraylists.
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)).replaceAll(" ", "");
alContactNames.add(name);
alContactNumbers.add(phoneNumber);
}
phones.close();
3) make listview in your app with custom adapter. In each list item, there needs to be the contact number , contact name and check box for selection.
this will solve your problem.
I've seen a ton of posts online that show "how to open the Android contacts list" but they're all outdated and some of the code doesn't even work anymore.
EDIT:
Now have the following:
public class MessagePreview extends Activity {
final int PICK_CONTACT = 3;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Button recipientContact = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonAddRecipient);
recipientContact.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT):
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People.NAME));
// TODO Whatever you want to do with the selected contact
// name.
}
}
break;
}
}
}
No errors, but it does say
The field Contacts.PeopleColumns.NAME is
deprecated
The type Contacts.People is deprecated
The field Contacts.PeopleColumns.NAME is
deprecated
The type Contacts.People is deprecated
on this line:
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People.NAME));
I have to add more code after that line, but I don't know what to add.
You are attempting to define a method inside of another method. That does not work. Please move your definition of onActivityResult() to be a method on your Activity.
FWIW, here is a sample application that picks a contact that works on Android 1.5-4.0.3.
String[] projection = new String[] {ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER };
Cursor names = getContentResolver().query(contactData , projection, null, null, null);
int indexName = names.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
int indexNumber = names.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);
names.moveToFirst();
do {
String name = names.getString(indexName);
String number = names.getString(indexNumber);
} while (names.moveToNext());
try this code on onactivityforresults
I followed this tutorial and got the basics of Content Providers : http://www.vogella.de/articles/AndroidSQLite/article.html
But wanted to know how can i get the contact number that is stored against display name. tried with "ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_VCARD_TYPE". But got an error.
Please let me know if there is any solution.
Thanks
Sneha
This is a good tutorial about Getting contact number using content provider in android
http://www.higherpass.com/Android/Tutorials/Working-With-Android-Contacts/
and
http://www.app-solut.com/blog/2012/06/retrieval-of-contacts-with-contact-contract/
and can pick contact number like this
add button click event like
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, PICK_CONTACT);
}
});
//outside button click
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
switch (reqCode) {
case (PICK_CONTACT):
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
getContactInfo(data);
}
}
}
// onActivityResult
private void getContactInfo(Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(data.getData(), null, null, null, null);
while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
String contactId = cursor.getString(cursor
.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
Name = cursor
.getString(cursor
.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
String hasPhone = cursor
.getString(cursor
.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
Cursor emailCur = cr.query(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
new String[]{contactId}, null);
emailCur.close();
if (hasPhone.equalsIgnoreCase("1"))
hasPhone = "true";
else
hasPhone = "false";
if (Boolean.parseBoolean(hasPhone)) {
Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,
null,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID
+ " = " + contactId, null, null);
while (phones.moveToNext()) {
phoneNo = phones
.getString(phones
.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
}
phones.close();
}
pname.setText(Name);
//
phno.setText(phoneNo);
Toast.makeText(this, Name + " " + phoneNo, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
This code will work for mobile number contacts, not for email or something. i found this code simplest. let me know if there is any problem.
start activity with pick intent on phone data type:
findViewById(R.id.choose_contact_button).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent pickContact = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(pickContact, PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST);
}
});
Now set onAcitivityResult();
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent){
switch (requestCode){
case PICK_CONTACT_REQUEST:
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK){
Uri contactUri = intent.getData();
Cursor nameCursor = getContentResolver().query(contactUri, null, null, null, null);
if (nameCursor.moveToFirst()){
String name = nameCursor.getString(nameCursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
String number = nameCursor.getString(nameCursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
((EditText)findViewById(R.id.person_name)).setText(name);
((EditText)findViewById(R.id.enter_mobile)).setText(number);
nameCursor.close();
}
}
break;
}
}
I tried so much tutorials, and read a lot here at SO, but i cant solve my problem:
When a button is clicked, the user can choose the mobile number of a contact. Actual I can get the name of the selected contact, but i can't find a way, to get/chose the mobile number..
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
/** Layouting */
this.mGetMobileNumberButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.getMobileNumberButton);
this.mNameTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.nameTextView);
this.mMobileNumberTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.mobileNumberTextView);
/** onClick getContactInfos*/
this.mGetMobileNumberButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v){
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int reqCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(reqCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c = managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
String name = c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
mNameTextView.setText(name);
}
}
}
Hope anyone can help :)
This will get the cursor holding base contact data, and will loop through the phone numbers the contact has, can have multiple.
Uri uri = data.getData();
Cursor cursor=ctx.getContentResolver().query(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 have the 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();
}
}
Is unless when you get all contact from phone and after that you test the result by one to one if has has number or not. You can set condition into query function.
Uri uri = data.getData();
Cursor cursor=ctx.getContentResolver().query(uri, null, ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER + " = 1", null, null);
The rest of code will be the same without this test:
String hasPhone = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(
ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
if (Boolean.parseBoolean(hasPhone)) {
