Android :: ContentResolver In A Service
Oct 21, 2009I want to be able to query a ContentProvider from a Service, so my understanding is I will need to use a ContentResolver. What I can't seem to find is how do I get a Context that I can use to create the ContentResolver with?

Nov 12, 2009for some reason i would be executing a raw query or at least a query with group by clause and having clause to the table calls from database contacts.db.Adding the group by clause and the having clause to the where clause will result in exception.Open the database(/data/ data/ com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts.db) with SQLiteDatabase. open Database()also throws an exeception.

Android :: SQLite Transactions When Using ContentResolver
Feb 9, 2010The goal: refresh database from XML data
The process:
Start transaction
Delete all existing rows from the tables
Per each main element of parsed XML insert row into main table and get PK
Per each child of the main element insert record into 2nd table providing FK from the previous step
Commit transaction
Pretty standard stuff as far as db operations. The problem is that CRUD operations are not done within ContentProvider but rather using ContentResolver so the insert for example looks like resolver.insert(CONTENT_URI, contentValues). The ContentResolver API doesn't seem to have anything pertained to transaction and I cannot use bulkInsert since I'm inserting in 2 tables intermittently (plus I want to have delete inside the transaction as well).
I was thinking of registering my customized ContentProvider as listener by using registerContentObserver but since ContentResolver#acquireProvider methods are hidden how do I obtain the right reference?

Android :: Run SQL Functions On A ContentResolver Columns Query?
Mar 22, 2010I am wondering if Android's ContentResolver supports using SQL functions over the columns when you query a ContentProvider. Such as SQLite3 date functions, to get a specific date format, or datediff?

Android : Add Mp3 To ContentResolver / Force Thread That Scans Sd For Music?
Sep 17, 2010I know that after downloading an mp3 from your app you need to add it to the ContentResolver to see it on the music player. I am doing it with the following code...
My issue is that I am willing to avoid setting DISPLAY_NAME, ARTIST, ALBUM, TITLE by hand.
Is there a way to tell Android to do it from the file? I've already used just values.put(Media.DATA, pathToFile); but it's not adding it to the player.
Is there a way to force the thread that scans the sd for music?

Android :: Adding A + Or Any Other Code Before The Number In Contacts
Feb 17, 2010I've been having a major problem with my contacts list since moving my contacts from a Blackberry to a Motorola Droid.
Lots of my contacts have phone numbers under one name, separated by a "+" or a calling code. If the phone number is exactly the same, only one number shows up in the Droid's contact. I never get the choice to pick the numbers inside the contact. This is a big problem for people who travel and need the "+" to make international calls or have a calling code before the number when they travel.
I made a contact called test. I added the number 11111111111 under home, then I added +11111111111 under mobile, then I added 2211111111111 under work. When you look for the contact test you should only see the choice to call 11111111111. The other numbers under the contact never show up.
Android :: Join ContentResolver Cursor With A Database Cursor
Mar 21, 2010I get records from the system by quering a ContentResolver. I maintain the order of the items in the database. So I want to display the items in the order taken from my database.
How do I merge these two informations?
I am looking after an alternative way now. As what I ideally want is:
Get order of contacts by a custom order held in my database (this involves joining CR with my DB cursor, and doing an order by, later seams it's not possible with CursorJoiner) but there is more, if the join is not unique I want to sort by contact's name as last measure
Which is impossible using Cursor and Joiners, because of the missing feature of order bys, also I need to return a Cursor, as I will be using the in an ExpandableList
Also this translated to TSQL it would look like
select * from contactsdata
left join category on contactsdata.catid=category.id
order by category.pos asc, contact.display_name asc
So I am looking now after an alternative. I have in mind to load in a temporary DB table all data from CR, then do the query on the temporary table where I can join tables and do order bys? How does this sound to you?

Android :: Custom Contacts Field With A Set List Of Values And Contacts Lookup Performance
May 28, 2010I'm pretty sure it's not viable to do what I'd like to based on some initial research, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask the community of experts here in case someone knows a way.
I'd like to create a custom field for contacts that the user is able to edit from the main Contacts app; however, the user should only be allowed to select from a list of four specific values. A short list of string values would be ideal, but an int with a min/max range would suffice.
I'm interested in knowing if it's possible either way, but also wondering if it make sense to go this route performance wise. More specifically, would it be better to look up a contact (based on a phone number) each time a call or SMS message is received or better to store my own set of data (consisting of name, numbers, and the custom field) and just syncing contact info in a thread every so often? Or syncing contacts the first time the app is run and then registering for changes using ContentObserver?
Android :: What Logic Does Contacts Api Use To Aggregate - Overlapping Fields From Multiple Raw Contacts
Nov 2, 2010when a "contact detail" screen is presented in the contacts application, how is each field aggregated from its underlying raw contacts
case 1: Overlapping fields
when the same field exists in two or more contacts. Say they have two different last names or emails in different accounts. Does the contacts app show both fields with an account indicator?
case 2: Non overlapping fileds
one rawcontact has email while the other one has phone number
Short of scouring the source code, I have exhausted searching everywhere else.

Android :: Filter Out Contacts From Contacts Pick List / Create New Contact
Aug 19, 2009My application wants a functionality of picking a contact from the phone contact, I have achieved this using the following intent Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, People.CONTENT_URI); startActivity ForResult(intent, 001); I wanted few more functionalities
- An option to create a new contact from the pick list, similar to the one which is available in inbuilt Launcher appliation
- Set of contacts should be filtered from display i.e already selected contacts should not be displayed
- Filtering of contacts should be based on the phone number i.e a contact might have two phone numbers associated with and wants to filter out the phone number which is selected I guess above can be achieved by implementing my own pick list using contacts provider, is there any other way without implementing the new pick list
Android :: Convert Google Contacts Back To Phone Contacts
Nov 16, 2010When I switched to the Samsung Fascinate from a previous non-smart phone, I transferred all of my contacts from the phone over. I think in the setup somewhere I chose to convert my contacts to Google contacts. That was really confusing at first, because I didn't know what it did, and didn't even remember I had done that until recently. I'd like to get the contacts back to phone contacts (not Google contacts) for multiple reasons, which I won't bother listing for now. So, does anyone know how to UN-convert or re-convert Google contacts back into phone contacts? I really don't want to have to recreate all of the phone contacts, because I've got a LOT of them. I would remove my Google account from the phone, but I worry that would remove all of my contacts completely, which wouldn't help me.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Importing Contacts To The Device - Contacts Operations Are Very Slow
Mar 23, 2010I have some questions concerning importing contacts to the device, which is extremely slow.
First of all, if you delete all your contacts, google sync will restore it very quickly. However, when my app is adding contacts to the device, it's very slow (a few contacts per second). Even if I add almost empty contacts (with name only), it is a time-consuming process.
If I turn google sync off, importing 5000 contacts can take 1-2 hours (on HTC Magic). When google sync is on it can take up to 24hours. And this happens despite the fact, that application for the whole time is in the foreground, device is connected to charger and screen is on. I checked the logcat to make sure my app is adding the contacts the whole time, and it is.
I tried different methods and different devices. The results differ of course, yet manually adding contacts is always significantly slower that google sync. Is there any way that I can speed up the process? So that importing 5000 contacts will take less than an hour.
Motorola Droid :: Contacts Only Syncing To Google All Contacts Not My Contacts
Jan 16, 2010I seem to be having a sync issue with my Droid.When I add a contact to my phone, it doesn't sync into "My contacts" in Gmail; it'll sync into "All contacts". So, a couple of questions:
1) How can I get the phone to add new contacts created on my Droid into "My contacts" in Gmail?
2) I'm trying to understand the point of "All contacts". Why does Gmail want to keep a list of anyone that I've ever sent an email to? Otherwise, it'll be simple enough to just merge the two groups and call it a day.(Note: When I bought my Droid I did NOT have the VZW sales person transfer my contacts or any data from my old Blackberry to my Droid. I used Google Sync on my BB and synced my contacts from my BB to Gmail, then when I got the Droid, it automatically pulled my contacts from Gmail.)(FWIW, yes, I did a search and found two great threads: http://androidforums.com/support-troubleshooting/15042-how-do-i-push-droid-contacts-back-gmails-my-contacts.html and http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid/15069-contacts-dont-really-synchronize.html but I have a different situation than most of those guys and I'd actually prefer to sift through and merge a couple of contacts from "All contacts" to "My contacts" every once in a while than deal with a backup and factory reset.)
Android :: How To Turn Phone Contacts Into 'Google' Contacts?
Jul 26, 2010I own a HTC hero (Orange). With talks of android updates becoming available, there seems to be a mad rush to back up everything so that nothing is lost on the update. There are many ways of doing this, but one of the most common problems, is that people have their contacts saved as 'Phone' contacts and not 'Google' contacts. This means that they will not sync with Google mail. There was no contact export available to me (I think because my firmware was still 1.5).
This seems to be a solution that will solve the problem without having to write out every single contact number in Google mail.
1. Enter android market.
2. Search 'Contact sync'
3. Download/Install this application.
4. Run the application
5. All contacts will be turned from 'Phone' contacts to 'Google' Contacts
6. These contacts will then be synchronized with your Google mail
This means that if your contacts are lost on your phone at any point (eg. an update), they can easily be 'Exported' back to your phone through Google mail.
Android :: Application For Merge Of SIM Contacts With GMail Contacts
Apr 21, 2009i've been looking for an application for merging the SIM contacts with the GMail contacts but can't seem to find any. Does anyone know if such an application is available?

Remark: i'm not sure if this question belongs here, but i had to choose between the G1 T-mobile and this forum.
