Android :: How To Query Contact History In Phone?
Nov 24, 2010
I'm using a Motorola Backflip running Android 2.1. Every contact in my phone has a History tab which shows recent history such as recent texts, calls, and facebook messages for that person (facebook is linked through motoblur). My questions are:
1) Is the history tab on every Android Device or is it only from Motoblur?
2) If it is an Android entity, is it possible to query this information using the new ContactsContract and SQLite calls, if so, how?
If it's only a motoblur entity, how does motoblur query that information to provide? (ie. how would you pull all contact history from calls, texts, and facebook because a linear search would be far inefficient.
Thanks in advance.

How can I query Android contact (in android 2.1) based on a phone number? I used to use People.CONTENT_URI (before android 2.1) but that is now deprecated.

I have the following code which queries 1 number of a contact. It works. But how can I change it so that I can query multiple numbers (work, mobile, home) for the same contact and the type of each number?int phoneColumnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(People.NUMBER); if (phoneColumnIndex != -1) {String phone Number = cursor.getString (phone ColumnIndex); System.out.println (" phoneNumber:" + phoneNumber);

We are writing the application about accessing the contacts on SIM, including add, query, and delete. The operation "add" works well, while the query operation will return all records on SIM although I have added the selection condition, such as "name=xxx", and the delete operation doesn't work at all. The code is list as following.

I am trying to search for a particular contact number in call log and in contact book of the android phone. But I found that the contact number are stored in different way in contact book and call log. For e.g. I have a contact number 9889880912 to search in the call log and contact book. To do this, I do the following: add a contact in the android emulator. When i write the contact number for the contact as 9889880912 , it automaticlly gets changed to 988-988-0912 The dash sign (-) are automatically inserted in the contact number. I saved the number. Make a call to this number from the emulator. Now, using my code, when I am searching for a contact number in contact list by 9889880912,it shows no result when I am trying to search by contact number 988-988-0912 , the contact information from contact book is displayed. However, when I am trying to search for 988-988-0912 in call log history, it is displayed. but when I am trying to search for 9889880912 in call history , I get no result. How can I get the contact search by 9889880912 in contact book.

Sometimes I like to get rid of all the texts etc. from someone on my phone. But on the X, I can delete the text message, no problem. But how do I delete the history from under my contacts. What I mean is when you go to your contact list and select a contact you can view the contact but then move the screen over and view all recent history with them. That still sits there after a text thread has been deleted. Is there a way to prevent this from even happening or at least some way to delete the history?

For instance instead of bringing up the call history and searching each call for one of your contacts is there a way to bring up the history for just 1 contact?

I've been dealing with this for quite a while - I'm finally just getting fed up with it to the point where I'm actually doing something about it. I use GV exclusively probably half of the entries in my phone history appear as "unknown". Its also hit-or-miss if the contact's name appears when i dial out or when they're ringing in. Also, when me and another contact call each other back and forth several times, sometimes their info appears, sometimes they appear as "(unknown)" -- its baffling me.

Is there a way to combine contact history in the call log? For instance on my old pearl it only showed my contact once in the log and if I clicked the contact it gave me the history.

Prolly a dumb question but I can't figure out how to update an existing contact using the call history. In the call history window I can press and hold on a call. This brings up the "save to contacts" option. Not sure what to do after that.

I was wondering how to go about this problem of finding the gps locations of few friends based on the phone numbers i have.( Assuming that they have enabled me to see their location). Assuming that we have a server to which my phone sends the queries, which in turn queries the phones of my friends to retrieve their locations. So the question would be 'how to query the details in a phone from a web server'.

I was wondering if the X10 can do the same as my last android Hero, which basically link the facebook info contact to my related phone contact, including the picture. I guess this wont need any hardware, but software. Has this improvement being asked or is it planned for future updates?

When adding new contacts to the droid x, it added it as both a goggle contact and phone contact. (i only have one goggle account setup). I went into contacts -> menu -> more -> settings. I am UNABLE to check/unchecked the "Phone Contacts" (it is always checked). The goggle one i am able to check/unchecked. WHY and HOW can i toggle the phone contact? Also, backup assistant only takes PHONE contacts and not GOOGLE contacts...while g mail contact sync only takes goggle contacts and NOT PHONE contacts. How can one change phone contact to goggle contact? (i have seen posts all over but no answers...and just replies saying "i have the same problem") I am trying NOT to have two (2) different types of contacts. PHONE and GOOGLE. I just want goggle contacts ( or phone contacts. so i can at least use verizon's backup assistant.

I have done a search for this and I have not found answer. I have inadvertently created some of my contacts as phone contacts instead of google contacts. The main negative of this is that I can not sync these contacts. Does anyone know of way to change the contact type? My phone is rooted if that makes a difference.In another thread relating to this someone mentioned an app that fixes this but I could not find it. Does anyone know of the app?

There are a couple of options within the browser I didn't find until after searching for it, so I thought I would share it with the rest of the community in order to help out.
-Everyone should clear the browser cache and previous history in order to save internal phone memory. To do this go to BROWSER press the MENU button and press MORE. There should be a list of things in there but what you should be interested in is the last item which is SETTINGS. From there in privacy settings there will be options to clear both cache and history.
- Another little tip I wanted to share was viewing webpages in landscape mode without opening your keyboard. To do this simply press the MENU button from within the BROWSER and go down to FLIP ORIENTATION. You should realize tho by doing this you browser will continue to be in landscape the next time it's used. In order to return it to it's normal portrait mode just follow these steps once again.
-There are a number of other things you can mess around with or find with the MENU button within the browser so just take a look at it yourself even if you don't want to do any of these tips.

If I were to use something like chomp or handcent, would that have its own separate message history/threads And a somewhat related question. How much history can this phone store in terms of SMS conversations?
