Is there any way to display contact picker that has both number and contact name? Now I'm calling picker: startActivityForResult(new Intent Intent.ACTION_PICK,Contacts.Phones.CONTENT_URI),1);
But in a result I get only Contact names without visible numbers. To make things worse, if one contact has two numbers it occurs twice.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm developping an application in Android 1.6 (and can't use 2.0 or older).
I add a new contact on my phone as following code...
After that, I add phone numbers in the same way. It works as I am able to view the new added contact with following code :
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, contactUri);
this.startActivity(intent);
My problem is that, after adding and viewing the new contact, I can't see it in Contacts application unless I synchronized all my contacts (I also did a search with the contact's name, found it, nevertheless it wasn't added in contacts list).
How can I programmatically update the contacts in order to immediately have my new contact added in Contacts application?

View 1 Replies View RelatedQuick question - why won't the standard message widget (the "stack" of messages type) show any names, just numbers? The numbers are saved to my contacts etc etc and are on both the sim and phone.
Other than checking the numbers against my contacts or by the content I've no idea who's sending me messages.
When using the smart search function of the dialer or searching in contacts my Magic only searches numbers and names, not company names.I have hundreds of contacts that are just companies (airlines, couriers, etc. etc.) with no specific contacts at that company.Those contacts are effectively inaccessible on my phone now as the only way to find them is to scroll through the hundreds of blank contacts to find what I am looking for.When I synchronized contacts with my HTC magic, any contact with a company name, but nothing in the 'Name' field had the word 'unnamed' added to the name field.The only work around I can see is to use Outlook to manually add the company name to each of these contacts and then change the 'File As' field to read the company name.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to list the 'Display name' of all the contacts belonging to a single account.I am planning to use a cursor adapter for populating the list and hence would require the corresponding fields (Display name, Account info) to be fetched in a single content provider querry.Looking at the Contacts Database Structure a single table amoung Raw Contacts, Contacts and Data wont be able to provide these two parameters and hence a join is necessary.As far as i know join wont be possible to fetch the data from the content provider.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am struggling on how to display all the contacts and all their phonenumbers in one ListView. Because the persons and their phonenumbers are in two seperate dbase tables I need to do two queries. First one, is to get the user _ID the second one is lookup the phones tabel and based on that _ID get the numbers. Using a Cursor and a ListActivity with a single query is not that difficult, but what to do in this case where I need to do sub queries. I tried building my own datasctructure, but that is to slow and to expensive to do every time. How do I go about this. The end result would look like this, where each number is separately click-able.

I have downloaded the new updated version (complete with adverts)of Handcent to try it out as I hearing such glowing comments on it. When I open the programme I see all the threads but all I have is the mobile numbers and No Contact names associated with them.
Could someone kindly tell me what I have to do to get the names up please. I have been looking through the settings but cant see anything, do I need to make sure the stock messaging app is unticked first to get the names to appear?
Is there a way to display the names of videos or pictures when viewing them in the gallery? Alot of my videos have the same beginning screen shot so to find the one I want I have to literally watch them to figure it out. There has to be a way to show the names without having to go through My Files > media > videos. I want to know what the names are when I go to view them

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know how to set the names that show up in your contact list? For some reason, a bunch of my contacts are showing up as their Twitter names, and I'd rather have it be their real name, which I have listed under their Google accounts (for example, GreenMike vs. Mike Green). I even unlinked my Twitter account, but the names stayed the same. Similarly, is there a way to set it so the contact pictures are Google account pictures by default?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI thought I had read something about this before, but now I can't put my finger on it. Is the initial synch between Gmail contacts and Facebook using e-mail addresses or contact names? In other words, if I'm using only first names for some contacts will it find their Facebook profiles or will I have to change the contact names to full names? My Incredible is arriving today (can't wait) and just want to know if I need to update my contacts.
