I get an error when I create a new CursorLoader : java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid column deleted My code: import android.provider.ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone; import android.provider.ContactsContract.Data; ... String[] projection = { Phone.DELETED, Phone.LOOKUP_KEY, Phone.NUMBER, Phone.TYPE, Phone.LABEL, Data.MIMETYPE, Data.DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY }; // "mimetype = ? AND deleted = ?"

Am building an app that requires a custom contact field ('whitelist', if you were wondering) for every phone number. However, I only found a way of saving custom data for each contact, with Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID , but not for each phone number . I tried using Phone._id , but I got a java.nullpointerexception error.
