Android Contact Picker With Checkbox

Question

There are a lot of discussions going on about the same subject, but after spending 4 hours here, I could not find a valid description or a link to make a Contact Picker with

Answer 1

I use this code in onClick:

long[] id = getListView().getCheckedItemIds();//  i get the checked contact_id instead of position
        phoneNumber = new String[id.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < id.length; i++) {

            phoneNumber[i] = getPhoneNumber(id[i]); // get phonenumber from selected id

        }

        Intent pickContactIntent = new Intent();
        pickContactIntent.putExtra("PICK_CONTACT", phoneNumber);// Add checked phonenumber in intent and finish current activity.
        setResult(RESULT_OK, pickContactIntent);
        finish();

//

private String getPhoneNumber(long id) {
    String phone = null;
    Cursor phonesCursor = null;
    phonesCursor = queryPhoneNumbers(id);
    if (phonesCursor == null || phonesCursor.getCount() == 0) {
        // No valid number
        signalError();
        return null;
    } else if (phonesCursor.getCount() == 1) {
        // only one number, call it.
        phone = phonesCursor.getString(phonesCursor
                .getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER));
    } else {
        phonesCursor.moveToPosition(-1);
        while (phonesCursor.moveToNext()) {

            // Found super primary, call it.
            phone = phonesCursor.getString(phonesCursor
                    .getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER));
            break;

        }
    }

    return phone;
}


private Cursor queryPhoneNumbers(long contactId) {
    ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
    Uri baseUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
            contactId);
    Uri dataUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(baseUri,
            ContactsContract.Contacts.Data.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);

    Cursor c = cr.query(dataUri, new String[] { Phone._ID, Phone.NUMBER,
            Phone.IS_SUPER_PRIMARY, RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, Phone.TYPE,
            Phone.LABEL }, Data.MIMETYPE + "=?",
            new String[] { Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE }, null);
    if (c != null && c.moveToFirst()) {
        return c;
    }
    return null;
}

And the last onActivityResult of activity which you start PickContactsActivity

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    // super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {

        if (requestCode == Constants.REQUEST_CODE_PICK_CONTACT) {


            if (data != null) {

                String[] temp = data.getStringArrayExtra("PICK_CONTACT");

            }
        }

    }

}
