Android :: Resolve Mail Address To Contacts Name
Jun 22, 2010
Assuming I have a contact saved in my addressbook, called "TomTasche" with the mail-address "stackoverflow@gmail.com". How can I retrieve the contact's name, if I only know the mail-address?
I already asked a similar questions about retrieving contact's nickname here, but if I change that code to query the mail, like that:
CODE:...........
It forces close and logcat tells me that there's a syntax error near @gmail.
CODE:..................
Interesting is that it seems to query fine. Logcat prints out the contact's name:
CODE:.............
How am I able to retrieve the name?
Syntax Error is caused by missing quotes, but cursor returns null anyway.

I am working on a program that will connect to a time server (time- a.nist.gov), retrieve the timestamp, and place it in a text field.
However, when I create the socket, I get an UnknownHost Exception for time-a.nist.gov
1. put the <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> tag right before the </ manifest> tag. I did this, and the change is still there.
2. use the static InetAddress.getByName() function to convert to an IP address (this still throws the same exception)
When I pass the IP address (129.6.15.28) to the socket constructor, the program works fine. It only breaks when I use the actual domain name.
I have written this program in Java and it works perfectly fine.

When i try the same code from emulator (already tried few versions) I'm getting UnknownHostException. Internet works fine on emulator and I'm able to connect to IP address like "93.86.230.251" but never to hostname "something.org".

I'm trying to find a Mail App which will allow me to select the from address. I use several aliases for websites I run, and various different roles I have, but they all come into my gmail account, but I can't change the from address on the gmail app. Anyone know of any apps where I can change this?

I use a Google Apps e-mail address (i.e. it's tied to my domain) and GMail can work with this fine, but when I tried to purchase something from the Market it said it can't use this and I need a googlemail e-mail. I have one so I entered that, but now I want to use one I have set up especially for this purpose but I can't see how to change this relationship. If I stick a different SIM in, the Market now asks me to confirm the account password but it won't let me change the actual address. I'm running 1.5 on a T-Mobile Pulse.

I have a *.doc file and want to send it to an e-mail address. It seems impossible using gmail app and dropbox (even tried renaming it to *.mp3, *.jpg, etc.) or browser (both built in and skyfire). Is there an application that would let me send said file to an e-mail address as an attachment?

Is there any way of using the Android Market without having a google mail address?
I don't want a googlemail address. Fair enough having to create a google account.. but i don't like googlemail, I can't get the user name I want and I already have 6 other email addresses to manage.
Any way to get around this?

I started receiving lots of rejected emails from my gmail.com account this evening... looks as though my phone (HTC Desire / Android 2.1) has been sending out bogus emails... no subject, just a link to a website ...
eg.
hxxp://xxsomethingxxx.spaces.live.com
Its sent a different website to each section of my addressbook, so as not to have too many recipients on each outgoing email... some of the other emails reference different sites ... I've no idea what's caused this...assume it must be an app that's been installed. I've installed the free AV on my phone from the google market (orange/white capsule). I've fixed all the reported errors...
Guess I wanted to know if anyone has seen this before... I'm worried the O/S may now be compromised and i'll need to start from scratch. If anyone can provide any advice and / or pointers to diagnostic/security tools it would be most welcome.

I have been having an issue with syncing contacts since may some time. I thought that the 2.2 update on the nexus would resolve it but it still persists. No idea what the issue may be as until then my contacts used to sync perfectly. Any suggestions on what I should try.

I am using the HTC mail app, to get emails from a Gmail account, which gets messages from a POP3 account. In Gmail online, I can send all messages as being sent from the Pop3 account. I cannot figure out how to do this with the HTC mail account, which makes it pretty useless. Anyone else using HTC mail and receiving and sending from different accounts? I've tried changing the outgoing server stuff, but I keep getting failed message sent errors.

Is there anyway or any hack out there, perhaps an app, that allows you to send any length of video from your email to another email address? most of my videos are larger than 20MB and my gmail app won't send since it's too large. this would be great

I'm trying to retrieve the contact's name, phone number, and address from the android contact list. The name and phone are pretty straight forward but the address seems to not be accessible with the 1.6 api level.Has someone figured out how to get a contact's address? Also there's a completely new api in 2.0. How can I take advantage of this and fallback to the old api by using 1 binary. If that's even possible.

Anyone here using HTC Desire's Mail app to connect to Exchange 2003 server?
Everything's working great except I can't get GAL Lookup (Global Address List) to work. Mail's downloading just fine, Calendar sync's great and Contact sync's good.. but that critical moment when you want to shoot off an urgent note to an office colleague & can't remember his email handle... bummer! Stuck!
Strangely, in NexusOne when I had to rely on Touchdown by Nitrodesk, the Address Lookup worked just fine...
HTC bug perhaps? Of all the issues, I think this is Desire's biggest.

How do you get the Android's primary e-mail address (or a list of e-mail addresses)? It's my understanding that on OS 2.0+ there's support for multiple e-mail addresses, but below 2.0 you can only have one e-mail address per device.

What's the best practice to validate an e-mail address (e.g. from an user input field) in Android? org.apache.commons.validator.routines.EmailValidator doesn't seem to be available. Are there any other libraries doing this which are included in Android already or would I have to use RegExp?

Anywho, I want to go into Gmail, compose a new email, and be able to select contacts (or even have the app provide a look-ahead list based on what I type). This is exactly how the Gmail app for my Blackberry 8830 worked so I don't understand why there seems to be less functionality no an Android phone. In any case, it seems that no matter what, all I can do is manually type in email addresses. Also, I know I can go into Contacts (People) and select a person's email. This brings up a menu option to email using Gmail or my Exchange email account. This in't good enough because all I can do is open a new email to one person this way. What if I want to email 10 people!?

I sync my contacts w/Google Contacts and am running Jellybean 4.2.1 on the Nexus 4. My issue is a husband and wife I know share the same email address but have different cell #s. Android refuses to show the wife in my contact list as long as she shares the same email address with the husband. If I remove the email address for the wife, she shows up in my contact list. The moment I add it back, on the next sync, she disappears from the contact list.
Questions:
1. Is there any way to stop android from marking a contact as a duplicate if the cell # differs but the email is the same?
2. Is there anyway to override the duplicate detection for a specific contact?

I bought a Kyocera Rise for my wife (big mistake - piece o' junk). She broke the sliding display off of the keyboard - ribbon and all so I transferred the service to an old LG Optimus. But I have no idea what her Gmail address was to be able to get her contacts. Is there anyway to recover the email address or transfer the contacts. The Rise still works, it just doesn't have a screen. I could plug the USB port into a PC and probably read it that way, but I have no idea how to get to the contacts. I don't think we exported the contacts to the SD card.
