Answer 1

Okay i think i figure out what Luksprog was saying this code works now they key is this

mContactList = (ArrayList>) results.values;

in

@Override
public int getCount(){
    return mContactList.size();
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.auto_contact_list, parent,
            false);
    TextView nameView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.ccontName);
    TextView phoneView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.ccontNo);
    TextView typeView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.ccontType);
    Map contactMap = mContactList.get(position);

    nameView.setText(contactMap.get("name"));
    phoneView.setText(contactMap.get("phone"));
    typeView.setText(contactMap.get("type"));

    return rowView;
}
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
    return new Filter() {
        @Override
        protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint,
                FilterResults results) {

            if (results.count > 0) {
                mContactList = (ArrayList>) results.values;
                notifyDataSetChanged();
            } else {
                notifyDataSetInvalidated();
            }
        }

        @Override
        protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
            ArrayList> result = new ArrayList>();
            HashMap myMap = new HashMap();
            myMap.put("name", "key");
            result.add(myMap);
            HashMap myMap2 = new HashMap();
            myMap2.put("name", "is");
            result.add(myMap2);
            HashMap myMap3 = new HashMap();
            myMap3.put("name", "another");
            result.add(myMap3);
            FilterResults r = new FilterResults();
            r.values = result;
            r.count = result.size();
            return r;
        }
    };
}
